Dogs and Bombers play next Sunday, so you'd assume we play the following Sunday because of that.

Likely to be Sunday the 18th with a 2.30pm start, live on Channel 7, almost certainly at North Port Oval.

when's the granny? if the pies win through does this give them the advantage of the longer break? or doesn't it matter?

also, did this ever get approved?

Would have been good if they had of kicked another 10 pts.

My maths is crap but at least my English are good

This week's Qualifying Final edition of From Lulie Street...

http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/video/2 ... his-season

The best news comes late in the ep, with Jack Frost and Jack Hellier both diagnosed as sprains (ankle and AC joint respectively) and both listed as "Test", which is the best possible outcome.

Sadly, Ben Moloney is listed as "season", with the aforementioned broken leg. Get better soon, Benny...

The rest of our VFL list is listed as available for selection (all 24 of them, which would include Michael Still), but no reference to the major AFL omissions in Marsh and Toovey...

Also, Wagner confirms right at the very end (for those who hadn't put the pieces together already) that our prelim will be Sunday week at North Port, which will guarantee a 7 day break for our opponent (either Footscray or Essendon) and a 7 day break to the Grand Final for the winner.

Caff had a lot of tackles looking at the stats, alot of his disposals were short and in the hand-to-hand combat arena. For mine the gamebreakers were Williams and Wills, Phillips was a conduit between attack and defense and Crocker was the target up front. Pendlebury stepped up to hold the backs together after Frost went down.

Caff had more turnovers than a bakery.

PF Final is on the Sunday then?
