The Scum and our positions are a reverse to last year and expect that to continue in the Prelim.

Yep a total reversal.

We'll even get to chant SYD-KNEE-STACK

to the tune of U-S-A

at the prelim, and it will reverberate through the eyebrow piercings of Collingwood faithful as they file out of the ground at halftime

BTW - Broad continues to stink it up and needs to be dropped

Agree!
 
I’ve always thought of him as someone who’s pretty important to how we like to play and his last few weeks haven’t changed my mind. I had a lot of respect for how he played last week and today was just really solid and provided some great run from the back half. Developed really nicely by the club.
 
Before last two games was averaging round 85% game time. Last week was 71% (3rd lowest) this week 62% (lowest). Either playing injured or is on the outer.
 
Anyone got a rationale explanation why we drop broady with DTLD out?

I trust the MC, but ive got no idea what they are thinking.

Dimma mentioned in the presser some players are breaking down a little bit or a bit fatigued.

Youre stats there may back Dimmas statement up.

Nath may be one of them in need of a spell and a freshen up.
 
Got a feeling a few of our second tier players are struggling under the load with so many injuries to premium players plus add a few suspensions n it's been throwing way to much heat back.

Broady's form's tapered. Sausage has been hammered n his form's tapered. Geezer form's tapered n Georgie's form's been steady after a slow start. Dusty took forever to hit peak form. Cadd's hasn't really hit form. KMac was quiet last week. *smile*'s form has been quiet the last couple.

Opposition clubs haven't had to worry to much about our premium players getting hold of them this year so it's becoming easy for them to load up on our second tier n it's grinding some of them down.
The bye week n a refresh can't come quick enough.
 
Dropped because of matchups?
He has shown he is too small for a true big forward.
And Grimes + Flossy are better versatile types
 
Gets an opportunity to play as a key defender in the VFL, has never had to play that role until a couple of times this season and has come up just a little short.
He's been going to ground too easily, which can be corrected as Rance used to do the same early in his career.

Broady is a proud man he'll take his medicine and come back better than ever.

Surprised he has been dropped given our lack of backline options, this may be it craig.
