Rd 7 : Pre Game Thread - Blues v Pies

[Thryleon]

I do give us a sneaky chance, but we might need to kick more than 10 goals this week... we have actually kicked the exact same score in the past two weeks (10.12.72)!

I'm hoping our confidence is up and we can play similar to how we did in the Richmond game.

Im not really concerned with the total.  We missed about 4 or 5 reasonably easy set shots.

Kick more accurately and it could easily have been 13 goals 9 or even 15 goals 7, which is about as good a return as the better teams.

I wouldn't go that far, look what they did to Essendon 6 days before we went life and death with them.

Yes, the Pies best is definitely better than our best at the moment. Just hope they play badly, and their outs are as previously described. Some luck with the umps won't go astray either.

A guy on another site made a terrific point about picking teams.

He said pick the team that's playing the most honest football and that is certainly not the Pies ATM.

We on the other hand are about as genuine as you can be right now.

Pies still too good.  Pies by 24 points

If Carlton beat Essendon, Essendon beat Melbourne, Melbourne beat GWS, and GWS beat Hawthorn then I don't understand why we aren't premiership favorites?

And that being the case we should pump the Pies...........Lol!!!!!

We shouldn't underestimate the Pies, I don't think we're quite there but who knows.
Luck plays a big part in it too, the game will be won in the midfield as also so if Cripps is good to go we have a good show. I'd pick JK and Der too in the forward line more mobile and both can kick goals.

Who and who?? :o

[Lods]

Who and who?? :o

KJ dna Dre ;D

[crashlander]

At this point Cripps is looking a certain starter. Jaksch and Everitt are no certainties yet, even though an extra tall wouldn't be bad f Collingwood include Cloke.

KJ dna Dre ;D
