A Pies loss - when?

[Cruiseon]

It is hard to see Collingwood in their current form losing another home & away game this season but I think it is very very likely.

Just wondering what everyone thought was the biggest danger game?

Surely we couldn't lose to Essendon but if they got in front (they are genuine front runners) you just never know.

Thoughts?

The grand final :P
I actually think it is possible, they have a poor history in finals especially GF's and there a more experienced teams like Geelong who perform well on GF day.

Both finals they play in. Will go out in straight sets... :P

[Cruiseon]

I know you both know....... but which home & away games are at risk?

Finals, we'll deal with those another time. We don't need Carlton & Essendon expertise on the matter, it's been about 15 years since they both won a final in the same year.

We will lose to the Hawks, after hopefully beating Essendon and Adelaide and thus securing top spot. Bring in Fraser, O'Bree, Lockyer, Medhurst for round 22 and rest some tired bodies, and let the veterans fight it out for a spot.

[bunyip]

I think the Essendon game may be a danger game. Essendon will be hurting after last week and what better opponent to regain some pride but the top team.

[Cruiseon]

On Friday night we will know after 10 minutes if there will be a game on our hands. Unfortunately if the Bombers get behind it is all over, that said if they get in front they can be difficult to chase down.

[Alex7089]

To be honest with the outs we have I don't think we can. I think they will get to finals without losing .

+1  ;D

thought bombers were a chance this week but with inspector gadget out it changed my thoughts.
then bombers drop spuds prismall and houli and bring in young guys
word is crameri has a big enough engine to go with swan. supposed to be a very good footballer

then pies make 4 changes and bring in N Brown, Medhurst + Lockyer for 3 really good players

mmmmmmmmmmmm    mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm * thinks to himself*

medhurst will make too many errors and bombers will run run run testing Pies fitness

i will go this week for a loss. Bombers by 3 goals

[Alex7089]

Huge call CFC!
I doubt any guy who has never played could go with Swan ::)

[Cruiseon]

The Bombers really don't have the cattle but at 7/1 for a win maybe there is decent value there.

A bit embarrassing that Essendon are 7/1 against the Pies. That really can't of happened too often.

[CFC 1979]

Huge call CFC!

true Alex. Only going on the caller who playes with crameri in Bendigo
we shall see.

Also agree with cruis. 7/1 a bit steep but the pies are the form team
remember the cats odds for the last three years. 07 - 08 they never went above $1.15 in every game

Pretty sure there were a few games where they did ::)
Also think that 7:1 is a bit harsh, we have a better chance than that... >:(

[CFC 1979]

your probably right Alex maybe $1.20  :D

there was one cats supporter who put huge amounts of cash on them every week in 07. ended up nearly $1 000 000 up on the year
