Round 19 - Collingwood v West Coast Saturday 30th July 4:35 - MCG

[PowerBug]

actually tipping Eagles to win by 70+  Pies were already bad and got 3 new injuries so playing youngsters

nice day for footy and Eagles are flat track bullies

The last line is precisely why I tipped Collingwood!

Haha Ed blowing a gasket in the crowd :D

Terrible, terrible decision and kick by Sidebottom there. Lucky it didn't cost them.

Well I went to the game yesterday

Firstly, when half time approached I wasn't sure if I had a ticket to Collingwood vs WCE or a ticket to the Darcy Moore show! He was having the game of his life, taking massive grabs, slotting goals and I actually felt bad for him that he got injured and spent the second half off

As for West Coast - what can I say? This was EXACTLY what I expected. Everyone has been talking about how North are under pressure to lose their spot, well let me give you the tip - We've got Freo next week in a massive Derby followed by GWS in Sydney, Hawthorn at Home and Adelaide in Adelaide. I don't expect us to win another game, and we're every chance of slipping out the 8!

I've said it all year, and yesterday was just another typical game like the 16 that were played before it. We are playing NOTHING like we did last year and I just don't understand for the life of me how we can go from the footy we played 12 months ago to this rubbish that is being served up every single week

Eric McKenzie needs to go back to the WAFL because he is absolute bereft of confidence and for the first time in his career I actually get nervous when he's in the vicinity of getting the ball. I think the mental scarring of his knee reco is a lot worse than what anyone actually thinks

LeCras is the other veteran who's last few weeks in particular, but most of the year has been extremely poor and having little to no impact on games. I'd like to see him dropped, but I know that won't happen

I didn't expect much from Sheed being his first game back so I'll cut him some slack but he did look very rusty out there

Nothing personal, but why is Tunbridge getting a game now at this time of the year?

We get NicNat back next week, but in all honesty this year has been a major disappointment and we are doing nothing but making up numbers. At least North play good footy from time to time - we just serve up mediocre tripe each week

I expect to finish 7th or 8th, and either way play away against WBD or Syd, get belted and then sayonara 2016

Hit the nail on the head there RD.

My favorite part was at almost half time Karpany and Tunbridge had about 6 disposals between them. Both are average WAFL players. Did not deserve as opportunity, and embarrassed themselves at the top level.
