Re: 2018 Final Series
May I say, cmon Collingwood. Another season with all the money and hand fed top end talent, end in elimination for GWS.

Re: 2018 Final Series
This is without bias but man is the quality of finals post 2016 deplorable. Just think back to the games played in 2016 and prior. The last two seasons are shocking

Re: 2018 Final Series
Surely GWS can't leave Buntine on De Goey. He's nowhere near him.

You know Barnesy is Cold Chisel’s lead singer, right? If his voice is shot (which I completely disagree with), he’d be be out in front of Chisel with it. He’ll put on a great show.

Wow. Thank you for that information. I didn't know.
My point is that I think Jimmy's voice is shot, but if you're going to have him, then reach further into your pockets and get the whole band. At least then the back and forth vocals might not make him sound so bad.
I like Jimmy plenty. But have you heard him sing lately? There's no doubt he'll "put on a great show (effort has never been his letdown)", but his voice is shot. Disagree if you like, but you'll be wrong.

Re: 2018 Final Series
GWS grinding this out. Toby Greene so far unsighted.
Old mate Griffen did some heavy lifting early in the 2nd quarter to get them going.
How much would Coginilo be worth on the open market?
More of an In Bruges guy?

Pies kick two quick ones. Have they weathered the storm?
Coniglio is a jet. One please.

Pies took their opportunities early in the last quarter, Giants didn’t.
Cameron, Greene, Lobb, Shiel very poor for the Giants.

Yep. An abject failure by their top line players. Greene thoroughly blanketed by Maynard. Good.

I'm happy with that result but gee I feel dirty.

Re: 2018 Final Series
My heart goes out to you GWS. Sitting at the 2016 prelim with your stupid newspaper front cover, ‘it’s our time’. Well it’s still not your time; see you in 2019 less Dylan Shiel after another failed finals despite being gifted the money and players.
I imagine Gryphone & Lids will go down a level next year, Shiel and maybe more gone. Not looking great you plastic nothings.
