Round 21 - Collingwood

[Lucky Knickers]

If Pies have Top 4 sewn up I reckon they will go easy. They are not going to want to subject the team to a brutal swans contest so close to finals.
I reckon there will a few players unwell and we will get home in a close one.
But then again....what do I know. I'm pretty sure I am predicting 0-21

Can't wait to give the Pies grief about not being able to retaliate.

The Swans to play really ugly footy against the Pies (as usual) but lose by a "respectable" margin of 21 points.

[ShockOfHair]

The one thing that gives me hope is, for whatever reason, we've got our intensity up for the full game. We might have beaten the Pies last time if we hadn't gone into snooze control in the last quarter.

All the other signs are against us. Collingwood are the form team of the comp and the footy gods have surely run out of miracles.

[Wardy]

If they win by just 1 point - I will be happy (I also believe in miracles!) If they can shut down Leon, Daisy & Didak, then we might be in with a sniff.

I think we might need to worry about Swan more than Daisy.

Add him to the mix too - or - if things are looking really bad and we are being smacked - bring back some biffo, at least that will liven things up a bit.

Use Barry as a runner??

Q: What's better than beating Collingwood by 100 points?

A: Winning by one point after being 10 goeals down at half time

Use Barry as a runner??

At least he would kind of get one last hurrah (of sorts) on the field for the Swans like he should have had - and he could do a bit of damage , Alister Lynch style, as he went.

[Bloody Hell]

God I hope we win this -

a) I'm sick of honourable losses
b) It's the Pies

Me too - and its Collingwood - no one, and I mean no one likes to lose to them.

I'm proud of the honourable losses

And yes, the Colliwobbles.
Nothing means more to me (except winning the flag) than beating them.
To the point that I could be diagnosed with a disorder of sorts.

That's a terrific post, a wonderful effort. However it doesn't quite win post of the thread but I'm very proud of your efforts.

[CureTheSane]

Well then who won post of the thread?
