    Dogs vs. Collingwood - spoilers

    Are the Magpies a shot to take down the Doggies, if so, and assuming we win against the Dees tomorrow, we'll only be ONE win behind third place!

    Thats good but to be honest Id prefer that we will and the Doggies win- thus we open up a 6 point gap between 4th and 5th and would go 10 points in front of the Pies with a chance to make it 14 points in front of them in 2 weeks time (And with only 8 rounds after next round to go) make it very hard for them to get in front of us for the 4. Making our position in the 4 safe is far more important to me then finish 1st,2nd,3rd or 4th. Sure it would be fantastic to get a home final week 1 of the finals, but the second chance is what you really need I feel- and if you finish 4th then you play the Cats in the 1st week of the finals but dont run into them again till grand final day

      On current form, the Doggies will win, and win easily...Suck on that Eddie.

        No tall forwards for the Pies. At the Dome so the wet weather won't be an issue.

        Whilst eggbeaters sites are set on 3rd. I'll be happy to settle for 4th ATM, and have a 6 point buffer between us and the crows and pies.

          Western Bulldogs will flog them. Heard a rumour that Alan Didak could be a late withdrawal for the Lagpies.

            If it's true, then the odds of Collingwood winning would blow out to $5 or more.

                I don't care where anyone is on the ladder I always want Collingwood to lose...except maybe against Essendon and Hawthorn..but then again..oh who cares just evryone but us lose.

                Go Dogs

                I sat next to a bloke on the plane home from Melbourne last week who looked like Daniel Giansiracusa. He was so good looking it hurt to look at him..my god it's enough to make you change teams.

                  Didak isn't the late withdrawal, apparently Wakelin is, replaced by Rocca.

                    Collingwood to win. If they lose, it puts more emphasis on winning against us.

                      I had to wait for the game to start to see how I felt. I like the Dogs but it's all about getting the Swans in the best position.

                      Go Pies!

                        I'm so confused, maybe a draw.

                          Spot on. Agree completely.

                          I don't think The Pies will win though. With Cloke suspended, and Davis and Fraser injured, it's a tough call based on current form.

                          Still, it's near half time and the pies are in front by 10.
                          Captain, I am detecting large quantities of win in this sector

                            Collingwood on top and lead it by 17 points.
