Saturday, May 7
1.45pm
MCG
Well, the Pies got a touch up from a possible flag contender on their own dung heap. Clearly have injury concerns. Eddie and Joffa not happy. Bucks under the pump.
We've won two pretty ugly games of footy against fellow cellar dwellers.
So.........................

Really liked White's game today, shows you what these blokes can do when their match day instruction is more than just;
"Stop him, and stop him, and stop him!"
Today he started to look like a footballer again!
"Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck ....... Ruck, ruck, ruck, ruck"

Cripps in for someone, Jaksch in for Weitering.
Happy for Jaksch to play in defence, rather than be crucified trying to be a key forward on our forward line. Happy to leave Casboult and Jones forward, as while going ok aren't a huge part of our future, until we function better taking the ball into the 50. Then we can try our future, McKay and Jaksch, there rather than crucifying them there beforehand.

Outs: Weitering (inj.), Sumner, White
Ins: Jammo, Everitt, Cripps
Jammo to replace Weitering.
Sumner and White didn't do anything wrong, but Everitt will do more than Sumner, and someone has to go out for Cripps if fit.

Big call on Jamison! He had two touches before going off with concussion on Saturday.
I'd be surprised if Cripps is back next week, particularly with our recent history of treating calf injuries.
I reckon there'll be one change; someone will come in for Weitering. I'm not sure who that will be but you'd expect that we'll need another tall defender. If we're prepared to go back to 1982 - according to Baggers
- Jaksch could get a call up but I'm not sure he's really ready.

No one has mentioned Charlie Curnow as a possible entry.

Gee we could win three in a row and put the final nail into Buckley's coffin. I know there's more than a few Collingwood supporters who would like to see that happen.
Another win would have a marked effect on our culture and set us up for a better year than most of us could've dreamed.

Treloar, Sidebottom and Pendlebury is a fair trio to try and tag..we need three Ed Curnows...
Reckon Adams will be back for them and take Murphy and I would expect Crisp to take Cripps and Greenwood to look after Daisy...
Cloke back?....Cox, Moore and Cloke is some oversized forward line..wonder if Buckley will be brave enough to try and exploit us with more size but its a high risk
strategy...
