VFL Rd 4: Northern Blues vs Collingwood April 25, 2016, 09:53:18 am VFL Round 4: Match of the Day? Well, may not, but it is important anyway. Why? The Blues take on Collingwood at Preston City Oval at 1400 hours. The development team play against Coburg at Preston at 1100 hours as the curtain raiser.Now Collingwood seniors have been struggling, but the Drug Cheats VFL team pounded them by close to 15 goals o the weekend. So, unlike last year when they embarrassed us, we have a quite reasonable chance. Quote Selected

Made one eff up when he didn't get the ball to Thomas. Pretty good otherwise. Quote Selected

But I suppose this sorts of OP/Hip type problems have to be treated very conservatively as they recur frequently.I think he'll get back on the park, the question is will his run and kicking have been greatly affected by the surgeries. Another Daisy, but without the credits in the bank, maybe? He's too good of a footballer to discard, if the Pies can put up with a Yank for three years we can carry Sheehan a bit longer, at times/moments his attack on the ball and contest have made him look Voss like.

They do have considerable leeway over when the games they televise can be played, but it is a matter of how its fits in with their AFL coverage. If there is a pattern, I have yet to see it. I have no idea when, or IF, we get on TV. Collingwood, Essendon, Port Melbourne and Williamstown appear to be their favourites. (Why anyone would want to televise a gave at North Port Oval, let alone play finals there, is a mystery to me. The place is not impressive and the surface turns to mud with the slightest rain.)This year Channel 7 has gone for Sundays, to fit in with their Sunday afternoon coverage, for what it I worth.

Eve though they will have to make a few changes. Hopefully the Baby Blues can come out and show them we have talent! No Cunningham again. That doesn't look like a rest. I have no idea what is up there. Quote Selected Last Edit: April 28, 2016, 08:43:07 pm by crashlander
