AFL Rd 21 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Collingwood - crashlander - 07-26-2024
A Saturday night game for us at the MCG. Collingwood's hone game, for what it is worth.
Lots of tickets sold: not easy to get seats.

Collingwood would have to play pretty poorly this weekend not to start favourites against us next Saturday. We were very ordinary tonight.

If Collingwood win against the Tigers and find some confidence they will beat us without too much effort. We struggle to beat them when we are in the best of form. Our ins vs outs make no difference. We are behind the 8 ball in this game. 4 goals Collingwoods way as a result. I hope it isn’t more which it could be.

We should run them straight back into form.

I'll give us one last chance, they are travelling about as well as us and are down on numbers being forced to play kids. They wont be playing finals and shouldnt have the motivation we should have and I expect a response from Voss and the playing group.
Blues by 35 points....

The emotional reaction is season over. We'll account for the pies next week but my bigger worry is hawthorn the following week. After that west coast and St kilda.
Port play freo in freo, Melbourne, and they have another tough outing against Adelaide which is always a 50 50 so they're equal second but have a bit to do.
I'm not concerned.

Losing this one is not an option.
Re: AFL Rd 21 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Collingwood - kruddler - 07-27-2024
Our biggest issue with wins/losses from here lies in the ladder, and not simply position, but the teams around us.
Sydney have top spot. Someone will have to travel to Sydney in week 1, they'll win and have the bye in week 2 and will host week 3 as well.
Currently we are 2nd.
3rd-6th are all interstate teams (currenty - Port, Freo, Brisbane, GWS) and they will host 2 games at a minimum, possibly all 3.
7th is Geelong which has the option of hosting games down at KP.
There may not be a game at the MCG in week 1 of finals unless we get up 2nd, or fall to 5th.
We need to win games like this to avoid travelling interstate in the finals.

It's "Snap out of it" time.
It's a "must win" or "goodnight nurse".
Games against Collingwood are never predictable, even when the ladder position suggests they should be.
Both teams will be up for it, and a big crowd will be expected.
Any complacency we might have had should be squeezed right out of us by now.
We just cannot afford to lose.
I don't think we will.
Re: AFL Rd 21 2024 Pre Game Prognostications Carlton vs Collingwood - Thryleon - 07-27-2024
We won't lose again all season and will win the flag.
Our next 4 games are very winnable. I recommend checking out everyone's run home, only Geelong have it east and Sydney with their advantage.
