Hate to sound like a 'typical' Collingwood supporter but there were some shocking decisions yesterday!!
- Deliberate OOB: Paid against Lockyer i think as he was trying to push the ball along the boundary towards a team-mate in the back pocket. Then i think the same quarter when some FOCKER falls over the boundary but the ball he fumbled stayed in - He just literally grabbed it from inside the field of play straight over the boundary line at thats NOT paid deliberate?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?.. BBBoooooooooooooo
Only just got back from melb where i took some time out to watch the game.............and ultimately waste 3 hours of my life.
Cannot blame umpires for what went out there........purely and simply a football side that is not fit or is lazy. That was a pathetic performance against a side that is not real flash itself.
The best blokes we had were Pendlebury, Cloke, Johno, Shaw x 2, Wakelin and Swan. The rest were really poor.....and unfortunately they were the senior blokes.
I went with the intent of watching three players - OBree, Licca and Taz. Taz was ok, he works hard and tries out there. The kicking to him is awful and he gets no favours from the big blokes. In saying that, when he did he missed a crucial goal that was turned over for one their end.
Licca was atrocious and I am sick of hearing how he is a tireless worker. Fact is, he doesnt get a kick or stop someone getting one. The new brand of footy has passed this bloke by and the sooner we realise it the better. Trade him.............preferably for Aker who at the same age can kick, run and tackle.
OBree - very poor early but did have a go. Kicking woeful.
I hate bagging Bucks and Clemo but they were not good.
The bright spot was JC - 2 of the goals kicked on him came from terrific ball movement thru the corridor that gave JC no hope and one came from Josh Fraser's inability to get in front of Pavlich to impede his run in the goal square.
Whilst we have games v North, Hawks, Ess and Carl I dont think we will make finals if we have to win 13 games to make it. Hawks and Ess would beat us on yesterdays form.

Give him another run, hard to beat the giant in tap work. Fraser needs someone else. Travis ain't a Ruckmens *rse*ole and either is Cameron. Richards will be another week away no doubt.
9-3 start to the year and we've F*cked it up totally.
Got to say Freo we're woeful. They won't make the 8 IMO. says a lot about us!
To see us not beat that brand of footy Freo dished up is extremely disapointing.
I want to name some blokes who have had enough time to make the next step in their career. Thought they had done it from the first 12 rounds. Its rare for me to spray my magpies, generally I'm positive, but Time to go unless they turn it around big time in the remaining rounds, cos my patiance has run out with these guys!
Leon Davis - Couldn't lay a tackle in the little league!
Ryan Lonie - Butter wouldn't melt in his mouth! Must be a nice bloke but!
Probably unfair cos I'm filthy ATM. But I feel we won't win a flag with them in the side. Profesional football players. ppfffft!
Other concerns are....
Can someone send a map of an AFL ground to the Midfield and HB-line. cos I think they think the goals are where the 50 meets the boundary. FFS why did Lonie, and R shaw plus others have the imediate reaction to run straight towards those spots! They didn't even consider moving into the centre corridor.
Could go on, but too shattered.
If they come out and win this week, I'll probably be even more disapointed on this Freo game.
