Helps just a little. They could line up Peter McKenna out of the square and still beat us. All BS aside, they will smash us.

They're in with a real sniff for the flag this year, and obviously got close last year. Great depth, good mix of players in all aspects, and off field they do things properly. This is what a professional club looks like. CFC look and learn.

One positive is we get a break from that idiot Dwayne Russell doing our game.

Kreuzer may be fit: no certainty, but the probability is high considering last weeks data from the club. If he is fit, then we will play him. So we should.
Phillips is no certainty to be dropped, depending, but it is more probable than not: we do not appear to like playing 2 rucks and Phillips'kicking is not that great.
Plowman: he may not be 100% fit. He was not that good against North, but has been reasonable in the other games. I hope he is fit enough, as his replacements are not ready to go yet.
McGovern is some chance of playing, which is a positive.
Jones should not play, not after what he experienced. Now Levi did do a reasonable job when Jones went off, but can he do it for 4 quarters? His kicking is an issue, as always.
Goddard is an option: he has been playing well, he is marking well and he has a very strong kick. Mobility? Good question, considering the Collingwood forward line does not have a large number of key forwards.
Williamson and Stocker will probable get another go: their potential replacements are still some weeks away.
Charlie: most of his problems are in his head, I think. Maybe he does need time in the VFL. It is not how far he is running that is a problem, it is his decision making (which is incredibly poor at the moment).
We really need him, but not the way he is going. His mistakes have been even worse than Levi's, and that takes some doing.
Live Long and Prosper!

This could be a bad one, so I think I'll stay away!
btw., An Abductor and a Hammy, one week, I call bullshit!
Playing them injured, rookie mistakes 101!

This has all the hallmarks of a good old fashioned drubbing written all over it. Goddard probably plays this week as there's no way they'll risk Jones after a head knock like that. So a backline without Docherty, Simpson, Newman and Jones up against the likes of Cox, Reid, Elliott, Stephenson, Hoskin-Elliott and De Goey!!!! We'd be lucky to have anyone remotely good enough to go with De Goey let alone the others.
And then a midfield with Grundy, Beams, Pendlebury, Treloar and Sidebottom to begin with.
Mercifully I didn't get to watch the game against North but it beggars belief that a team could turn up and not turn on and let the equal bottom team blow us away in 25 minutes of footy. Maybe too many are just thinking that Cripps and Walsh will do it all?
If Kreuzer doesn't get up, Grundy and their mids will have a day out and their forwards will be lining up to kick a bag. A 100 point demolition wouldn't surprise me and that won't look good for Bolton.

This isn't related to anything, and I've been curious for a while, but what on earth is that picture in your avatar ?

I see. Thanks deags.
Game of Thrones ? No, nothing that would ever interest me.
