Pre-Match. Pies v. Blues. All comments.

[Pies2016]

I get the feeling the coaching panel want to find a reason to debut Harrison.
He’s a high pressure small forward who gets a bit of the footy. He’s super quick, evasive and has some good tackle numbers in the VFL. He’s a bit slight but if Ginnivan was to miss, I reckon Harrison gets the nod as his replacement.

Wonder if they have kept Cameron as emerg. in case Johnson doesn’t come up?

Sub obviously comes from the other three who could all replace Ginnivan if his sniffles dont clear up.

^^^^

You could be right but I have a feeling they are keen to play Cameron asap.

Carlton will come out firing on all 4 cylinders.

Pies will bring the big V8....

Johnson and Ginny have been named.

Like to see Cox start as ruck then move it onto Cameron and Johnson in spirts.

I have been following the Pies for many decades. Very unusual to be happy with every single player in the team, and happy for so many not in the team to come in as well

[stui magpie]

cameron tipped to be the Sub.

How does the Cox Cameron ruck combo compares and stacks up against the Gawn and Grundy combo.

MY Veteran Magpies scenario on this huge match. - Ist qtr, Bluebellies come out breathing fire, copped so much shit, as has Voss, will kick first 2-3 goals, dominate, but late in qtr, Ginnivan snaps one, qtr time. 2nd qtr, Bluescum maniac play starts to wane, cannot keep it up, Magpies get more of the ball, we snap a couple of magic goals. one from Daicos. Caaaarlton have slight lead at half time. 3rd Qtr, we kick first two snags, start to get our act together , Blues start fading, we lead by 2 goals 3/4 time. Last qtr, as we have done so often, we run these bastards off their feet. swamp them, mass attacks, they fail to score a goal, we run out winners by 31 points. Thats my take. !

Not sure on quarter 3 thats when we go too zzzzz.

Haf time we have a slight trail.

3rd quarter we are more dour and not a hell of alot of scoring happens both teams.

Like it early in the final quarter we kick those goals from chains.

But for mine i love a good solid start.
its sets the tone for the match.

We tend to give up the first goal then we kick the next and the next at the start.

Still think quarter 3 is our least productive.

We kind of plan for quarter 4 in our quarter 2 then sit back in the third.

We are a book end team good starters and strong finishers.

Need to work on our q2 and q3.

I think Cameron and Cox are getting there tho.

Much under rated is Cameron.

I think the likes of Crisp needs a lift in the match.
