Why isn't Brad Dick in our team for tomorrow? He always has that uncanny knack of kicking goals. Any goals will come in handy in what should be a low scoring game tomorrow. In fact he deserved his place in the side more so than Medders.

Good win by the VFL team - well done.

Before I switched over to the Geelong -vs- Western Bulldogs game I watched almost the entire Collingwood vs Casey game and I was impressed by some of the performances.

Collingwood 26.21. 177 defeated Casey 9.8.62

Over 40 scoring shots!!!

Brad Dick kicked 5, including 3 in the 3rd term. Jaxon Barham and Cameron Wood looked terrific. No one looked pathetic, except Casey... Laughing

, although Marty Clarke wasn't good enough to be in line for a recall which I was disapointed about. I liked watching Chris Bryan do his thing and his big moustache.

Basically everything was positive.

Cameron Wood, Jaxon Barham and Brad Dick definitely all put their hands up for a spot in further AFL finals. Danny Stanley, Jarryd Blair, Anthony Corrie and Ryan Cook also all played well.

Nice to see a few of the cheer squad people down at the game. The commentators made a special mention of Daniel who was wearing a huge green cowboy hat. LOL.

Go PIES!

The VFL Magpies have kicked off their September campaign in scintillating style recording a 115-point win over the Casey Scorpions at TEAC Oval on Saturday afternoon.

Collingwood will now face the loser of the Northern Bullants v Williamstown match in the semi-final next week.

Jarryd Blair was best on ground with 33 disposals and three goals. Also accumulating a lot of the ball was midfielder Ryan Cook (34) and skipper Damian Peverill (27).

Omitted from this week's senior side, Brad Dick responded with five goals and 17 possessions. The small forward was rested for most of the fourth quarter along with Cameron Wood, both players named as emergencies for Sunday's AFL match.

Danny Stanley kicked four majors and was equally as dominant in the middle of the ground racking up 34 disposals.

Marty Clarke played down back and held his opponent for most of the match while collecting 15 touches.

I thought Rounds and Blight where good without Standing out.

Rounds Showed he Speed and Used the Ball well with a Few Goals

Blight Kicked a Goal on his Wrong Foot,Took some very strong marks and used the ball well

Well hope they do well in the Semi's because we were not playing very much in Casey.

We beat them more then we beat Old-Scotch in the Pre Season

Massive positive from the game today was the ongoing development of the Mo-Brigade.

I have long bemoaned the lack of facial hair in our team and these three boys, along with Sidey have put in a wonderful effort and the rewards were self evident today on the scoreboard.

Great work guys.

Blair was good too

Reid did some nice things

Once Rusling got the pace of the game he did some good things in the second half

Wood, Dick, Stanley and Cook killed them

Barham is a running/tackling machine

Goldsack was just cruising all day

No complaints when you win by 115 points but we need to remember we had 21 AFL listed players in the side the scorpions 1.

It should have been a cakewalk and it was. Well done.

If I was Mick I'd only be looking at the first half to see who might be putting there hand up for senior selection cause it was a non contest in the second.

What is happening with Cox? Is it all over and he is heading west??

^AFL rules stipulate that you can't have more than 3 players in any one side whose last name will result in knob jokes!

We reached our quota will Goldsack, Wood and you guessed it Dick.
