ross lyon is due a mountain of credit for his approach!

the siants look best when going in hard and in fact, what wins games for geelong and hawthorn on top of accurate kicking is hardball gets, tackling and accurate disposal.

what will win the game against collingwood is:
A. shared rucking duty from gards and kingy
B. good transitional handpassing
C. hard, heavy tackling
D. goal kicking

has it dawned on any1 that if we had beaten the bulldogs, we would have met 99.9% of all football supporter's expectations of us...

a win on fri would put us back on par (according to some)

Not to mention Geelong, Hawthorn and the Bulldogs are the only 3 teams that are playing an exciting brand of football.

The AFL allocate 4 points for a win + percentage. By their calculations we are the fifth best performing team at this point in time. Simple really !!

we are not fifth how dare say that. if many of you could remember the good old victoria park darks, supporters pissing on opposition, threatening to be killing walking back to my car, finding you dont have a car anymore, its all apart of the collingwood folk law.

If we're taking the optomistic approach we can also look at our losses being to Geelong, the in form Bulldogs, and a resurgent Port Adelaide while not playing our best. If the glass is half empty, then we haven't been competitive against the teams we'll need to be if we want to go anywhere in September.

Friday night looms as an excellent test as we play another team failing to meet expectations and without form.

Pffft. When I saw us in fifth, I couldn't believe it.

Feels like we're closer to fifteenth.


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.
