    LOL. I can't win. When I say I think we're gonna lose - too negative. When I say I think we're gonna win....TOO positive/Kiss of Death!

    I took this thread as a positive and you have convinced me we are going to win.

    There's no winning on the internet. You just state your opinion and hope you survive the hail of arrows.

    I'm shocked we're not favourites. This one is oooooooooooover.

    Put Marra down for 5.

    I've tipped us to win in our family comp, the only one . But I couldn't bear it if we won and I hadn't tipped them.

    I do think we can do it though, if everyone stands up.

    I don't mind tipping against us in the tough games because it's win - win. If we win I don't care about the tip, if we lose at least I got the tip right.

    At least you got your tip right. That’s a positive.

    Predictably, the game was lost in late Q2 and Q3 when C’wood stopped ‘switching’ and ran fast in waves in the corridor starting in defence under nil to minimum pressure from our forwards, Naughton was the only exception.

    Our inability to man up proved costly with Collingwood having 4-5 loose players leaving us exposed. Their 6 goals to our one in the third term proved to be the difference

    How good was their ability to go out the back of a stoppage and then execute a forward handball to a player at pace running into open field. It’s the same outcome to a Melbourne stoppage, just how they got there was slightly different.
