So has this been Elliott's problem; a bad back? _________________ we don't eat our own at collingwood we just allow them to foul our nest. |

Good stuff. |

Can't wait to see Levi play - he is the perfect replacement for Adams. When the two of them get to play together we could be just about the best clearance team around. _________________ I think therefore I think - I think |

I agree about Adams. He'll be sorely missed. But I've got a feeling that this is the week that the Eagle's inexperienced backline is going to get found out. |

We need to win this one or we can be officially deemed to have gone backwards.

Glad to see Seedsman get a game. He plays well at Docklands with his pace and run on the outside very valuable.
Overall even though we lost 3 good players to injury we have not lost too much with the changes this week, highlighting our growing depth!
Hopefully BK is playing and not the sub - Give him some real game time… _________________ Love us or Hate us... we are Collingwood - you can't ignore the Mighty Magpies!!! |

I'm actually quite bullish about our chances here.
The Eagles are used to the great expanses of Subiaco so the closed in feeling at Etihad might make them try something different.
There strength starts at the contests. They have Nic Nat to Priddis down pat so we need to be on him like mud on shoes.
Greenwood or Crisps need to wear like a second hand glove tight and hard.
For mine the Eagles when let run free are dangerous so our all over ground pressure may cause them hassles.
If the last 3 weeks have shown us anything it's that we can play the game out and pressure the whole time.
This is were we can beat them relentless pressure after relentless pressure.
Our backline has been nothing short of outstanding this year. Yes Tooves has had moments leaving his opponent but overall they have stood up really well.
Williams back is important his toughness and body pressure should keep Lecres in check.
If our back line can do th job our mids contest every contest that gives us a chance.
The forward lone has been rightly criticism of late. Elliott gone is a huge loss but his form suggested something had been wrong.
Cloke must play CHF and be up the ground often. Play White and the resting ruckman deep as well with Blair, Swanny or DeGoey at there feet. I like DeGoey up forward has good vision and is a decent kick for goal.
All in all our best (as shown the past 3 weeks) is good enough to win.
We need this game to get some reward for the past month.
Win this and it sets up our last part of the season with even more confidence.
I would think Bucks is going to try to really ram home the potential and efforts shown the past 3 weeks to the players and let them know this is it now time to get the job done against a premiership contender.
If Cloke gets going we win by 20 if he struggles we win by 6 points.

Blair has to be the sub. 8 kicks last week but only 1 effective. Good luck to Ben Kennedy and go Levi. |
