Collingwood would be deservedly starting as favorites, but not by much IMO. I think some in the AFL world would be spooked by the Hawthorn game, which is not unreasonable. I give us a slight chance, but we need 4 quarters of good footy and 18/23 contributors. And if it comes down to "taking our moments" hopefully we're good enough - the Pies have a few players who are good in that space.

They’ve taken their moments against us when it counts, same story for the last 5 games or so. We definitely owe them a 4 quarter performance, for our own sanity if nothing else.

What's the odds Frampton gets off? (Is it a Slam Dunk?)

I prefer specialist KP forwards rather than manufactured ones...we need to recruit a young KP who is a good kick at U18 level and doesn't need remedial work.
Brendon Fevola comes to mind...we don't have that player like a Fevola, Gunston, Elliott, Robbie Gray who can kick that set shot match winner in the final seconds under pressure.

I know this is not exactly what you were talking about and the following data doesn't take into account complete misses (look at you Harry) but point remains, i think Kemp is being a bit harshly judged.

Player	Goals	Behinds	Total Shots	Accuracy (%)
Brendan Fevola	623	402	1,025	60.8%
Jack Gunston	593	344	937	63.3%
Robbie Gray	367	262	629	58.3%
Jamie Elliott	364	230	594	61.3%
Charlie Curnow	363	164	527	68.9%
Harry McKay	296	155	451	65.6%
Brodie Kemp	38	26	64	59.4%

He did! Hard to believe but got the Collingwood discount....lol.
Love the headline "Shock verdict as Tribunal finds Pie tackled dangerously... but overturns his ban anyway".
