The TV coverage is about to start, this one could be epic.

Game's an hour away, what gives with locking the other thread... Plenty of discussion still going on....
Anyway, was saying to FB, only chance is that it's a Collingwood Carlton game and anything could happen otherwise they are all over us on paper.
If we don't do the slow movement stuff, maybe we can pull something off..
Right now I feel that pies should loin by 3-4 goals
No Waite? WTF :o Just says he is Omitted, no injury

Turned up late?
In case anyone hasn't heard.
Late changes.
Out: Waite and Carrazzo
In: Bell and Docherty
Menzel the sub

Would have bell the sub myself but maybe they are worried about Collingwood's size.... I'd have just taken the risk.

Agree.
Reckon Bell is odds on favourite to be subbed out.
WTF Menzel sub FML.
Fire up Blues! I've regained my zest for the season. :))
CH7 (7Mate) has a 50-minute lead-in to the match mainly full of crap interviews and subjective piffle from the commentators. They should start their coverage at 7:30pm and make it more interesting and watchable.
Now that I have got that little whinge out of my system, on to tonites match ...................
I believe we are a chance to pinch this one tonight even though we are grossly under-rated as the underdogs. The Age experts have gone against us 23-1 and the HUN experts are even worse 29-1. Out of 52 supposed experts, only two of them think we are going to win with one of them being the 'Kiss Of Death' which is a pisstake.
Losing Waite on the eve of the match hurts, losing Carrazzo is nothing because he didn't even play last week. This means that we have to find some other players to chip in with some forward pressure and goals PLUS Rowe & White are going to be relied upon even more this week. If the game is tight and the pressure is applied, Cloke will get the yips and be a liability for them.
The midfield battle is going to be a big pointer as to who will win, we have the players to match them but Sidebottom always seems to play very well against us. Gibbs will be given a key run-with role tonite and if he can win that individual battle, it will go a long way towards getting us the win.
I really pray that Warnock hasn't forgotten what he displayed last week and that it is the minimum standard we expect from him every week. Casboult & Henderson just have to be impact players tonight too.
Looking forward to seeing young Docherty tonight, he has good disposal and can be a rebounding defender too.
Overall, have the courage of our convictions and maintain the intensity and we will just sneak over the line.
ROBBO ........... where did that hanger come from ??
And then kicks the goal ... you bewdy !!
Thomas got a free kick and I have never ever heard boo's that loud. Bloody shanked it worse than I ever would when kicking for goal though.
Casboult, talk about clunking a mark, he nearly took the air out of the ball.
Missed the shot at goal badly.
Could of and should of been 3-goals straight right now.
Rowe was terrific attacking the ball from deep in defence but once again he just threw it onto the boot and it went straight to two Pies players.
Play the percentages and hit the boundary with a clearing kick.
We always stop when we start like this.
Casboult just made two very poor decisions, one at either end of the ground.
Contested a ruck contest and stood flat-footed and let Pendlebury virtually waltz away with the ball, down in defence contested another ruck contest and gave away a silly in-the-back free kick which resulted in an easy goal to the Pies.
He has to think these things through more because it is these small errors in judgement that always have me angry at him and denigrating his worth.
Turnovers destroying us.
Turnovers destroying us.
Need to change the game plan tonight.
Gibbs struggling towards end of quarter.
Scotland look very slow tonight.
Lucas was crucified in that tackle.
Turnovers destroying us.
Ya think?
We don't look on tonight... look very disjointed and patched up, which isn't surprising since we seem to have a different starting 18 each week. Some of these blokes would hardly have played in the same side. Pies' pressure is making us fumble and kick poorly... face it people, we're a very very average side with a lot of blokes missing.
Poor game plan.
Murph is working hard thou.
Docherty looks ok.
Scotland look very slow tonight.
Lucas was crucified in that tackle.
A shocking umpiring decision.
But we have panicked countless times where there was no need.
Not as bad as the first month of games but we appear to be standing back and watching a little more than we have been over the past fortnight.
Attack the ball, attack the player, attack the contest, it will yield results.
Turnovers destroying us.
Ya think?
It's the complete lack of skills and this urge to bomb the ball long that's killing us. The effort is there but the skills and the brains are non existent. Also we can't seem to kick longer than 35 metres.
We've brought our VFL standard foot skills to the game again, this could be a very long night.
Our poor skills are hurting us, we are having a crack though.
4 disposals for Warnock !!
Doc had a couple of nice touches and a tackle in his 1st qtr.
Turnovers destroying us.

It's like they're trying to take the game on but then not taking the risky kick.

Agree, hesitancy at the contest and skill errors are hurting.
Thomas is kicking like a player who has a juiced up foot
This umpiring is corrupt... why are our forwards held every freakin' time???? That call against Gibbs just plain stank as well.
we cant get it out off half back
CHASE FFS !!
Stop that trotting after the Pies player with the ball, Everitt just refused to put any pressure on the ball carrier running away from him.
Play man on frigging man, none of this zone crape. >:D >:D
Starting to look a little too much like our game against cheats.com.au a few weeks back.
Hendo always double teamed. Don't know what needs to do to win a free.
Always kicking to a 2 or 3 on 1 in our forward line FFS
Our horrid skill errors are killing us. It's been the theme for how long? This is a bloody failure of coaching in my book.
Gibbs ain't interested... no second efforts... just jogging around...
Unbelieveable... umpire told Garlett to stop working the mark... the pies crib everying freakin' time!
Henderson in in a double souflex hold every time the ball comes within 20 metres...
Doesn't look good... we'll struggle to kick 5 goals tonight.
Disgusting decision making. WTF is going on?
Players playing the coaches game plan to a tee.
Memo to MM, your game plan is fuuuucked.
Bwuce just said "some of the Carlton decision-making is woeful".
He is 100% right !!
Who in their right mind plays on when there is no-one from your team ahead of you, only three opposition defenders ??
That poster by Scotland just cakes the cake. This is a pi$$take. Laughable, comical, circus act
Scotland rundown again, just too slow now !!
The commentary is making me sick.
Why was Waite dropped?
Henderson was blatantly held but no free kick, Pies end up kicking a goal.
I can handle the 50/50 ones going against us but when they are obvious like that I get the hump.
And Grundy stomping on Jamison should of been penalised.
Walker.... Touhy... I can't separate them... they are just plain disappointing.
If headless chooks is a gameplan, then we perfect it.
Doing this beautiful guernsey a great dis service.
GET IN AND HELP HIM EVERITT !!!!!! >:D
Just stood there and let little Buckley fight for the ball against two Pies.
Can't believe the number of players I'm seeing standing around watching the game!
The commentary is making me sick.
Our standard of play is making me sicker!
How was that a free
Since when is that a free for in the back ??
No wonder Murphy looked dumbfounded.
mM chokes every time we have played this team
Anyone else think Scotland had played his last game tonight?
we are sh1t
end of story
Clearly the umps are over compensating for the fact that we are the No1 free kick awarded team in the comp. Blatant, blatant CFC frees aren't being paid. Appalling.
The standard of our decision making is abysmal.
The standard of umpiring decisions is even worse!
FMD!!!!!!!!'
>:(
This umpiring is plain rotten... how could they pay that against Murphy when they paid the same thing against Gibbs as HTB??
Scotland HTB when he handpassed the thing?
I know they are the better side, but this plain straight out smells of a fit up.
This umpiring is actually effecting the scoreboard. Massively. Its disgusting.
Utter utter fuuuuucking bull Shiite
Clearly the umps are over compensating for the fact that we are the No1 free kick awarded team in the comp. Blatant, blatant CFC frees aren't being paid. Appalling.
This
Take out our rebounding back men and take out our lead up forward????
We are embarrassing ourself, this is plain horrible.
We are going backwards tonite, it feels like RD's 1-4 again.
No intensity, no fight, no chase and crap skills and/or decision-making.
This is the thing, these guys tease us with two-weeks of something worthwhile yet they are too lazy mentally to maintain that standard. Failing a second half transformation, we are looking at a total smashing on the scoreboard.
And I was expecting to run close to them all night and pinch it in the end, how wrong was I. ::)
Add very poor decision making to the poor skills, very frustrating to watch.
How guys can play the game from a pretty early age, be drafted to play at the elite level and still not be able to get some basic decisions right boggles my mind. :o ??? :-\ :-[ >:( :(
The pressure has dropped off. The skills were never there. And as for the run... nada. Love Buckley and Doc looks good, but we're seeing some rubbish football.
Oh and no forward structure at all.
Just Ugly...like SOJ though...he's having a crack ;)
1 5 déjà Vu
hope there's someone in the rooms doing a line in the sand talk
when you wear that logo, you don't roll over
Blues mids being exposed.
At least Everitt, Docherty and Buckley are having a decent crack.
Walker has been good. Murphy great.
Not sure how the pie defenders are getting away with everything but our forward entries are crap anyway.
Horrible, just plain unadulterated horrible!
I have seen a few players take very very short steps.
As footballers taking a hit and kicking the football are dead set non negotiables.
back to embarrassing....
Huge lack of effort from maNY....
Not sure if I'm interested in the torture to watch any more of this crap. Simply crap with a capital "C".
That jumper should not be worn again by these players - put it away, at half time if possible.
Their pressure is too good. not giving us a cm of space which is just intensifying our poor disposal.
Yea, a few blokes like SOJ and Docherty having a go but nothing to kick to up the ground. Utterly devoid of teamwork. Reckon Rowe has done ok given his limitations. Disagree on 1AW... running around like a headless chook and horribly loose.
Midfield getting flogged... Murphy and Warnock trying but no support.
Up forward its a different story... like a bad B-grade 70's disaster movie... you know what's going happen and the result always ends up the same.... Henderson triple teamed and blatantly held, albeit F50 ball use horrid and our shooting for goal beyond description. 1 goal in a half of footy... 1 goal.
So why isn't Waite out there? If he was dropped....
Their pressure is too good. not giving us a cm of space which is just intensifying our poor disposal.
Mate, I think you've missed quite a number of clangers that were executed in the clear! Plus, our habit appears to be passing the ball to a teammate under pressure!
get MENZEL on and get SCOTLAND off the ground!!!!!!!
Lack of work rate. As if they are straight back to round 1 to 4 all over again. Actually not so much round 1 as they looked a chance then. Looking like a 10 goal loss as a conservative result we should accept now before we hit the field again. ::)
get MENZEL on and get SCOTLAND off the ground!!!!!!!
Hear hear
I know that one man doesn't win you a game, but once I heard that Waite was out, I said we will need a miracle to win. Casboult can't kick straight, Thomas can't make the distance, neither can garlett who could have kept running late in the second quarter there and been closer to goal.
I have worked Henderson out this year. yes, he should have got a free in the second quarter for having his jumper pulled. And yes, the umpiring is totally disgraceful.
But if you watch Henderson closely as I jhave the last three or four weeks in particular, he likes the easy goal. the lead, then the mark. He rarely if ever tackles or puts his head down and goes in. Watch him, and you will see what I've been seeing. Henderson is a receiver, not a getter.
Thomas, ordinary tonight.
Rowe panicking as usual.
Everitt, a non-chaser.
Lucas, a non-chaser. Looks like he's running after his opponent but really isn't. I'm now convinced that he's a hack in the games that count against the top opposition.
White, been o.k.
Warnock and Murphy both good.
Gibbs, tippy toeing again picking up little kicks and possessions as usual without doing the hard work.
Robinson been terrific.
Casboult, trying his best but gave away a brainless free and asked the umpoire, "was that for in the back?' when told yes, he just nodded his head. If you knew that you had done the wrong thing, why do it in the first place. Dumb!!
BELL SHOULD NEVER HAVE PLAYED. YOU CANNOT FUNCTION WITH ONE HAND WHICH HAS A BROKEN FINGER. FKN IDIOTS FOR PICKING HIM!!!
Mick is developing an intense hatred for Touhey. I read his lips after Touhey fkd up in the second quarter for the 80th. time. Mick "fkn Touhey again"!!!
Mick also said with two minutes to go. "Our forward line isn't functioning" Really Mick??
Scotland, gone in games like this where the pressure is on from a genuine top 4 contender.
BUCKLEY. IF THEY ALL TRIED AND PLAYED LIKE BUCKLEY, WE WOULD BE 10 GOALS IN FRONT AT HALF TIME.
Oh, one more thing. Maybe they should employ a skills coach for next year. It is apparent to me, that we don't have one for this year.
Thomas looks to be on half rat power... like too many of this side. I agree that he might be playing due to jabs.
A few seem to be having a genuine go but they are being swamped by a side giving 100% work rate across the board.
Will be interesting to watch Gibbs' second half.
Too many behind the ball. We have nothing to kick to when we do get it. They are working much harder than us on the spread. terrible disposal whether due to stupidity or the pressure.
No run from Simmo Walker or Touhy. Thye commentators saying Gibbs has been good? seriously?? Is it just me or has he been as crap as any1 else out there?
Buckley been great. Warnock good. So too Robinson.
Bell obviously not ready. Garlett better pull his finger out or he'll be back in the 2's by 3/4 time!!
Gee we miss Yarran's speed. And Armfield 's too hile we're at it.
We're a long long way off the Pies. They have 5 stars in their team and the rest are no-bodies who play to instruction. They play as a team. Getting a real lesson here on workrate alone.
All of this 'game plan' talk is laughable.
Its the same as it was, the last 2 weeks, which is the same as it was in the first 4.
What has happened tonight is the same thing that has happened during rounds 1-4. We've forgotten how to kick.
Look at the shots on goal, pathetic. 1.5 and at least a couple that didn't even score. Thats shooting, at best, at 16% on goal.
Kicking around the ground hasn't been much better. Rowe is so worried about the ball being in the back half that he just throws it on the boot and kicks it as hard as he can without looking, usually ends up in opposition hands. Robbo still does this, but his isn't limited to deep in defence, its all over the ground. When going inside 50 we only have 1 target that we are confident in going to (Casboult does not inspire confidence) and the pies know it.....so hendo is always double teamed.
Half time, we have been pretty well outplayed, but are only down by 37 points, 6 goals 1. We kicked 5.1 against the eagles last week in 10mins.
It does smell like rounds 1 to 4, but there is a second half, they haven't put us away yet, Naif would know this, 6 goals is nothing these days, ten minutes of footy, and games can change very quickly. That said I don't think tonight is that night hope it is though. Walker forward, Menzel on, Henderson back for Rowe, Buckly and Docerty to the midfield, Robbo to iron out Pendles, Thomas at full forward...
I forgot about Sam Doc. Will improve with the run, but is showing something in what has been a crap team performance.
Another crap free kick, this time against Rowe.
If I hear the words game plan one more time, I'll throw up. I still don't know what it is, even after the two wins.
Is Daisy playing for them tonight? FMD
Another crap free kick, this time against Rowe.
Mate I've been going to the footy and watching it for almost 60 years, and since time immemorial, the umpires will favour the team that has got the run on every time.

About. screwing. Time
These umpires are a screwING joke.
Stop posing Gibbs and play footy.
Rowe gifts Cloke a goal with a free kick he didn't need to give away, he had him out-positioned yet couldn't help himself and grabbed the jumper.
It is this sort of play which is the reason why he also comes under fire from me, he is only a stop-gap measure for us this year.
And yes, we don't have the cattle to lose Judd, Yazz and Waite.
Rowe will never learn. The umps are looking for the hold on Cloke. They don't give a fk if Henderson is held only Murphy and Cloke.
But Rowe doesn;'t have it, never will, and those on here that defend him as an AFL footballer, it's time to accept the truth.
Actually given the way we are playing I'm happy we are only 40pts down ATM
Don't ever play Rowe again.....ever!!!
But Rowe doesn;'t have it, never will, and those on here that defend him as an AFL footballer, it's time to accept the truth.
Yep !!
We have to work with what we have and whilst he is on the list he will get games, the end of season will be a different story.
Yeah let's blame Rowe. 80% time in forward half for pies.
I'm not going to mention him ever again.
What Rowe did then, a little tap, rather than an aggressive punch through for a rushed behind, says everything there is to say about the bloke.
The only thing we can salvage from this game now is pride. If we are going to go down, at least go down swinging !!
Did I just see Warnock try and mind Blair just then ??
The wheels are off the wagon and there is no repairs in sight.
Nothing changed in 5 years. We beat the easy beats and lose against any half decent team
has that old CNT forgotten that MENZEL is waiting for the call???????
Nothing changed in 5 years. We beat the easy beats and lose against any half decent team
When was the last time we beat Hawthorn?
It's really quite disturbing that a team once so quick, can now look like molasses, and a team that could almost score at will can now barely hit the scoreboard..........
Sigh.
Yeah let's blame Rowe. 80% time in forward half for pies.
O.K. just one more time. You are right Shadsey, 80% in their forward line. But he is just a totally incompetent, panicker who, when he has got the opportunity to defend, i.e. take a mark, he goes for the two fisted punch. Handball to one of our players, he fks up. Kick it to one of our players, if you saw him last week, he was alone, had the ball, had two of ours on their own to kick to, and kicked it out of bounds. He scrags, pulls the arms of the forward and gives away free kicks every week.
You are right, not all his fault, and as Sheik says, only a stop gap, until we can get someone, but, when he has the opportunity to defend, or be creative with his defence, he hasn't got a fkn clue, and never will have.
He is VFL standard at best.
Casboult just got outmarked by a guy 6-inches smaller than him.
Don't ever play Rowe again.....ever!!!
Thats easy to say, who do we bring in that will do a better job is not easy to answer.
Is Thomas still on their payroll
Lucas subbed out and Menzel now on.
Who do we bring in for Rowe?
What about Cameron Wood. He can kick and he can take a mark.
He couldn't possibly be any worse!!!!
2x holding the ball not called against pedellberry and beeeems. Fcks ake.
mM should've made a statement and dragged Gibbs for Menzel as sub ::)
I can't watch this anymore.
Lucas subbed out and Menzel now on.
Lucas is a rotten spud. Don't wanna see his face again..... He is all washed up.
Has anyone spotted Gibbs recently?
This is the greatest exhibition of the worst skills I've ever seen by any team in any era I've seen. screwing despicable!
2 goals WTF?
2x holding the ball not called against pedellberry and beeeems. Fcks ake.
The team with the run on ALWAYS get's the umpires favour. FKN ALWAYS!!! Remeber that, and you won't have to ask why ever again. ;) ;)
we look poorly managed, unfit, and undisciplined.
If they'd have kicked straight we'd be looking at a 20 goal loss. This is now worse than the Essendon game.
Don't ever play Rowe again.....ever!!!
Thats easy to say, who do we bring in that will do a better job is not easy to answer.
Someone who knows something about football, that's who. NFI pure and simple. Bring in Giles??
Given the inside 50s to them, they should be on triple figures by now.
Just looking for positives
25 scoring shots to 9.
Football playing ability looks Shiite .
That Guernsey looks awesome thou :)
25 scoring shots to 9 says it all.
Absolute crap Blues.
I'm almost ashamed to barrack for you. Bloody terrible. :o

I'm positive we are sh!!!!!!!!!tttttt. >:( >:( >:( >:(
Our poor skills have already been discussed at great length, but the negative tactics don't help either - flooding, slow movement, hugging the boundary.
Meh.
Robinson has a set shot from 50m and in an attempt to kick longer, he runs around in a curve which forces him to shank it left, he didn't even make the distance.
There is a perfect example of why we are what we are right now. Our players do not have the minimum skills needed to play this game. Way too many of them either can't handball, can't mark or can't kick and when under pressure, it gets exposed badly.

I'd cop this, as bad as it is against the Hawks or cats.
But against the mortal number one enemy!!!
Every player should donate his pay for tonight's game to Peter Macullum cancer clinic towards research for prostate cancer, so that at least some good can come out of tonight's debacle.
Mick will say it's all about process.

How did that work out for Zac Dawson?

LOL
Embarasing. A few careers ended tonight.
Lucas- should never wear a CFC jumper again. Seen enough. A less effective player I have never seen.
MacLean. Not interested. Too slow.
Walker. The next target he finds by foot will be the first this season.
Touhy. Must be dropped. Guarding neither a man nor space.
Scotland. Too slow but at least tries.
Gibbs. Not interested... go back to SA with our blessing.
I refuse to peg Rowe.... FFS, what hope did he have with the utter lack of pressure up the ground or no third man in.

i find it more disgusting its happening in this prestigious Guernsey!
The Big Galoot kicks our third for the night, could this be the start of our new patented last quarter comeback ??
And so ends the boundary line game plan, unpicked by Buckley buggerers! :o
Knockers, Bucks, Docherty and Warnock gone ok tonight.
We've kicked out 4th, still time to pinch this. :P
I care so much that I dont care anymore. Like when you are so hungry that you dont feel hungry.
I mean there is a dude in their team called Jack Frost FFS. Maybe he's to blame for us falling over. He has a super power that allows him to throw out a thin covering of frost in front of an opposition player.
My Black Imperial IPA on tap is superb... I wish I could type the same for my beloved but lets be honest craphouse footy side.
Prost!
Warnock kicks to forward line all our blokes want to fly for it, no one out the back.
0-3 for MM against the pies
No doubt I'll either be flamed or completely ignored, but I simply refuse to believe that our woes are solely skills related. This team is better than 16th, better than the drivel they've served up tonight. Something ain't right behind the scenes, and I have no idea what it is.
Assuming that you need 13 wins to play finals, we can only lose four more games this season before we are officially out of contention.
Best thing is, we still have to play Geelong (twice), Hawthorn, Fremantle & Sydney. :o
0-3 for MM against the pies

Fark this craps me.

As I said Sheik, the team with the run on always gets the umps favour. Hence Hendo getting the arm chop free.
But I will admit when I'm partly wrong.
I still believe that Bell isn't right, but he's putting in a super effort in this last quarter.
30 scoring shots to 16 does not paint a pretty picture thus far.
0-3 for MM against the pies

LOL, we'll played LP ;)
This boundary line game plan can suck on my gooch
Cloke pushed Bukley in the face. No free kick. screw this. screw it! I hate these FIGJAM lead cnnts.
Twice Buckley was fended off with a hand in the face and never paid. Happens once in front of their goals and they get a free.
We haven't lost because of the umpires but fck they make it harder to even get close.
White has been great tonight. I hope this match is the making of him.

Haven't paid HTB against this mob all night... clear run down not rewarded, constant throws (Beams is a gun at the chuck)....
Junk time goals, wonderful!
Menzle should not wear the green vest again this year.
Saints next week. Put in as a win. They aren't contenders.
Thanks Gibbs.... please stop jerking us around and just go...
Unfortunately, no one at the umpires department has got the guts to tell the umpires to umpire according to the rules.
The year started off with Campbell and Kennedy the umpires bosses, telling the umps to let the game go. They have pulled that back a bit, but still won't pay obvious free kicks.
Krevin bartlett keeps complaining that they won't umpire to the rules, and it's killing the game.
It is.
And it will cost a team a grand final one day, if not this year.
