Did Adams groin tear causing him to midwicket or was it the missing that did the damage? It was an instant reaction. What muscl? Tendon? Goes there?
Groin injuries used to feature in the 70s and 80s maybe TBR knows why they are less common.

I think with a top 4 draw next year Collingwood will be back where they belong outside the 8.
Where they dancing with the fans after the game,??
This close game shitt will turn and it won't take much for them to implode.
That's the worse finals forward line I've seen.
Elliott is the only true foward the rest are Richmond 1989 forwards quality .
Not sure I agree Ziggy. Ppl would have said that about us after 2017, winning a flag with Jack and a pretty B level mosquito fleet.

He's looking like a very good coach Fly.
And we, the Club, knew it - he won the ressies GF as our coach and we all heard him at the B&Fs and everywhere else around the club with his positivity mantras., He is focused on development and I reckon that's where everything starts.

Fly has the mindset stuff we have embraced these last 5-6 years. With Leppa and Wright, they are going places.
TBH, I wanted them to beat Geelong that's how much I hate Geelong.

Been carrying an adductor strain n according to the Hun report, Fly thinks he may have torn the muscle / tendon off the bone. Cooked for the year n after such a heavy final against the Moggies his team might be too.

Agree
But as I was watching the game Dacios, Sidebottom, Milocheck all got me angry.
I was happy they lost

I have carried on about how Richmond are “Richmondy” when we lose close games.

Well the Colliwobbles are still entrenched on the other side of Hoddle St. After winning 100 close games this year, the one time they lose a close one is in September :mhihi

That's why Dreams are beautiful. Its this week or next, this week they may not take Freo seriously enough or the week after the AFL 'make the umpires see only red & white' its all over.
They aren't beating Sydney in Sydney.
The AFL won't want that.
They can stick there 5 points up there asss.
Next year, the real Collingwood will be back.

Another under the radar farce. Ginnivan has escaped sanction on his “chicken wing “ arm twisting of Dangerfield. The review process missed it but Fox (?) highlighted. AFL have now stated there’ll be no action taken against Ginnivan. Well they wouldn’t want to lose face now would they.

Just can’t help but think of the Salem like witch hunt on Lynch when he pushed some Lions players head. Or the inordinate amount of times Picketts been fined for looking at someone with a scowl.

To be fair I think Ginnivan has copped too much for a 19yo first year player. Umpired differently and cops it on the socials big time thanks in a big part to media stoking the flames.

Happy for him to be let off for this. The vision wasn't the clear IMHO so there is no way the AFL would ever think of over ruling an umpire if the vision was inconclusive, would they.

Ginnivan is the fallguy for the sins of Selwood, and the way he plays is a direct result of the way Selwood has played for 15 years. Kid cops it while the hardened veteran who is to blame gets a green light. It stinks.

How about Jeff Browne crowing about the Pies and the crowd at on Saturday. To paraphrase:

"We had 90,000 and we were playing a team from WA!"

"Only one team draws a crowd and that is Collingwood!"

Yeah right Jeff :rolleyes: 2017 PF ring a bell? 94,000 plus Richmond crowd? Against a GWS team that has basically no supporters??

Let's compare Scumwood v GWS finals shall we? 2018 SF; 72,000. 2019 PF; 78,000.

Yes Jeff; there is only one team that draws a crowd. But it is not Collingwood!! You are an imbecile Jeff!

Collingwood supporters Are blind
The media doesn't help either.
Either they acknowledge that the 2017 preliminary final was the biggest 1 sided crowd or stop comparing 85,000 or 90,000 crowds to that game..
The game on Saturday wasn't anywhere near the atmosphere of the 2017
Preliminaryfinal.
The noise after Bulter snap the goal nail the win, I thought the stand was going to collapse.
It might be not collapsed but it was moving

I'd love to see the Swannies win by a point this week, but I really don't want a close one.

Seriously, anyone but Collingwood.
