We're 5/1 behind just Swans 5/2 & Blues 9/2..... Giants are the only other side at single figure odds.
Roll North and come out of the bye with about 6 more options to throw in the mix... Hope ya's listened when I said soak up the 9/1 about 8 weeks ago. |
Take your point.
But we have been smashed by injuries.
So odds of 5/1 for the Pies right now are just money gouging for Sportsbet etc.
Given our injury list, we should still be considered a wild card. _________________ Free Julian Assange!!

Assuming no more injuries, you may well be right about this prediction. _________________ I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm ☔️ |

As mentioned Fin’s best game today and while his tank still with fuel he’s tantilizing to watch
Yes he di tire as other games but I thought less today so maybe he is getting closer to a 4 qtr player _________________ I'm not arguing--just explaining why i am right |

Exactly.
Looking at; our remaining games (7 at the G), with the personnel to come back after the bye and the proven reinforcements we have unveiled through this period, I can't see us missing the top 4.
5/1 is still overs in my book (I'd have us just behind the Swans at 3's). _________________ Don't count the days, make the days count. |

Lipinski has been good all season and WHE is another player who is underrated. Completely agree with you. _________________ The artist formerly known as schuey7. |

Watching the replay now. Enjoying Sargeant Schult uncontested mark and goal at the start of the second quarter too. When he pumps those stocky arms in the air, OMG how much does Schultz look like Eric Bana transforming into the Hulk. You can’t unsee this once you’ve seen it. _________________ Premiership Pies made it legendary in 2023, don’t let them forget it. #Go PIES 2024…. |

Wow, what a quartet. |

Just got to the 4minite mark of the 3rd quarter replay. How good was that Darcy Cameron goal from the pocket. Set shot masterpiece. How good is Darcy Cameron 2024! _________________ Premiership Pies made it legendary in 2023, don’t let them forget it. #Go PIES 2024…. |

A good win.
- So good to see Kreuger do well.
- Daicos and Crisp were fabulous as always
- And great to see the crowd get so involved cheering Maynard every time he got the ball, and booing May.
But the Dees were very bad and inaccurate in front of goal. 6 goals 15 behind meant the Dees wasted any opportunity to put us under pressure or have momentum. Looking at the score tracker the Dees never got in front during the entire match. Not sure what is wrong with Fritsch.
Hopefully we get the job done next week and then come out of the bye with a munch stronger team with more key players back from injury. _________________ Sydney Collingwood Supporters Club

I'm not so sure that Cox will be guaranteed spot in our team, particularly if Dean, Krueger and Frampton continue to play well. Cameron has demonstrated, he has the tank to hold down the ruck almost single-handedly, with just brief support from Frampton and Krueger. Once Checkers returns, I'd rather have Krueger than Cox.
Nevertheless, if available, we are sure to include Pendles, JDG, Mitchell, Elliott, Checkers, and let's not forget the exciting 'Smokin' Joe Richards. |
