Collingwod have a real chance for a win on Saturday, and i really think collingwood will play extra special because of the pressure that recruiting staff is applying to playings that aren't performing as they should be.
We should have Rooca and Tarrant firing up forward kicking a few goals....and i hope our defence makes a comeback and our ruck works harder with our centre to move the ball out faster and better.
I'm tipping Pies by 24 points |

We play well at Colo...oops, Telstra Dome. I don't think we lost a game there last year. So it'll be nice being back there again, plus if it's a big crowd it is a great atmosphere, hearing the roar of the Pies fans up against the whimpers from the opposition.
Surely last week would have given the players the kick up the bum they needed and they will come out firing this week. _________________ "I'm sure people see me as a screaming redhead with a big pair of boobs, but I like to think I've got things to say."

No complacency this week. We'll belt them! I can't wait to hear the loud crowd inside the dome on the tv. Love turning it up loud to listen to us roar.

The key to the game in one word: Rocca
If he fires the team will lift and I dont believe the Swans have anyone to go with him. |

In the past Collingwood and Sydney games have been very boring games of football so Im hoping Saturday night is different. They seem to match up well against us and play a very tight brand of football, due to the floood that they use, and the Pies never seem to have much space or chance to get our natural flowing game going. It will be interesting to see if Sydney's game plan against us is different under Paul Roos.
If the game is in the mould of games of the past, it is crucial that we break the flood early on so we can dictate the style of play and be in control of the game early on. This will be vital for our confidence after coming off such a shellacking on ANZAC Day.
Despite these games usuallyl being close encounters, I think this will be a big win by Collingwood. I put the ANZAC Day loss down to complacency and think it was just the kick in the arse alot of players needed, and im almosot positive those pl;ayers will be on fire against Sydeny. We certianly dont lack any talent and are 10 times better than Sydeny, the trick is not letting the boys go into the game thinking that so that they actually do the work that allows us to be so much better than others. I think the boys will play like this is the most important game of their lives and will play with alot of urgency and passion, which is why a big win is on the cards.
Im predicting a BIG game from Didak and Rocca, Josh will c ontinue to work back into some good form. Hopefully Presti can work back into some form after a caining from Lloyd last week, but im expecting everyone to lift 20% and put in good, solid games. We will outclass the Swans by a mile, yet play the game knwoing that we need to work very hard to make use of that class.
Pies will be back on track after round 6 with a 6-7 goal victory and Nicky Davis, Andrew Shauble, Paul Williams and the likes will be rueing the day they ever waled out of Victoria Park.

Miss Magpie my baby.
History of being boring? Sydney Collingwood?
Hmmm...
Round 4 2000 SCG.
Quarter time-scores level, half time scores level, three quarter time-scores level...
Full time Pies by five points.
That was just magic.
(Note-I think the first or half time break was possibly a point either way.) _________________ It was love at first sight. |

i dont think its gunna be an easy win i think the pies will dominate the game but poor kicking at goal will keep the scores tight the pies to win by 17 points 13.20.98 to the Swans 12.9.81 |

I was at that Sydney game, Special Delivery. Certainly was not boring. The two played since then, at Docklands, have been though. _________________ Scooby Doo says "I've been to Lexus too." |

Sorry Special Delivery, i probably shouldve said the last 2 games at Colonial, both very similar, boring games, one we lost, one we won. Those are the games I was referring to, pretty much just since flooding became an issue. _________________ Those with the most invested are the last to surrender!
