This was on the Collingwood site...though I don't know how they get the selections before us. According to this, Max Hudghton is in, so i'm not sure about the credibility of this source (Collingwood Website). Hopefully it's correct and King and Hudgy are back.

CARRN SAINTS! beat the SCUM~

edit: ouch...too late :S.

Your kidding me

Gehrig can't kick a goal against a shithouse VFL side, he can't do anything against a shithouse Richmond side....but he continues to play.

SaintBot · Post: # 566456Post **SaintBot** » Thu 15 May 2008 6:21pm

Fisher is a good in considering the number of small forwards at Collingwood. However I would've felt safer having Geary on Didak/Davis than Raph.

Max, if he plays, is a huge in. Do we play him on the taller Cloke or do we give him to the more dangerous Medhurst and hope that Blake can keep Rocca out of of form.

get your hand off it.... seriously the amount of crap directed at this player is beyond the pale....

Great to see maxy there, that was a bit of a suprise. With blake, maxy and fisher coming in I would not be suprised to see clarke float forward.

No excuses, that team is good enough to bring home the bacon friday night.

Congrats on getting an emergency spot mini, keep up the form! Geary is stiff but with baker out it's not suprising they went with fish.

Will be interesting to see if rocca comes up. I could see blake playing on him and allow chips to play as the rebounding third tall.

Saints Premiers 2008 · Thu 15 May 2008 6:24pm

you would hope that jb can curtail rocca...

again the big issue is the smaller forwards...davis, didak, medhurst and thomas

baker is a big out for this one

Ha Ha I guessed the surprize might be Max back ! yey...

Ralphy · Post: # 566466Post **Ralphy** » Thu 15 May 2008 6:27pm

the team we have we should win,

and id love to see raph go forward.....

give the kid a chance he is alright,!

thats no given fortunatly ...I hope they don't put him down back at all

borderbarry · Thu 15 May 2008 6:37pm

Side looks good on paper, and paper beats rocca, right?

we "Raph speculators" are not ALL that black and white polarised as you paint in a love/hate inferral
Some have been offering constructive criticism on aspects of his game for a while, and recognising his obvious talents, have been opting for him to be given a run down forward
I for one hope this happens and wish him well
This backline looks more solid without him IMHO

st.byron · Post: # 566495Post **st.byron** » Thu 15 May 2008 7:05pm

Great to see Max back. I always feel re-assured when I see his name on the team sheet at full-back. Not a bad side for mine, given the injury front.
Only disappointment is seeing the same old same old (i.e Blake and Leigh Fisher) instead of giving younger guys like Allen and Geary a go.

because some people love to have a scape goat and thus only ever see what they want to see.... there were alot worse players against the tigers then raph.... of course this doesn't stop idiots coming on here and suggesting that he's crap

btw did you notice he set up the first three goals against the tigers and had a very good game. Same can't be said of dal and gram....
