    Interesting round of games so far. It was only a week ago I was sure Collingwood and Geelong were miles ahead of everyone else, but the competition is so even that I'm now not sure it's that open and shut.

    Re: Round 9 Discussion

    Pies are looking very average against the Crows. Their press is getting ripped to shreds and their back line has been isolated. Harry O might look good running off the half back line, but as a pure defender he's pretty crap.

    Ben Reid is a gun, though.

    Have Collingwood been worked out or are they just building for September?

    Re: Round 9 Discussion

    Someone has to explain how Melbourne(who should have a pink away jumper) can beat The Crows by 15 goals yet The crows can lead Collingwood by 5 goals at half time! Mind Boggling that.

    Think without Jolly Collingwood can't win the premiership.

    Re: Round 9 Discussion

    Would be a good year to hit our straps season is wide open imo. Pity we have our whole spine missing at the moment. We can't afford to drop any more games.

    Re: Round 9 Discussion

    Also teams coming off the bye have often started the next match slowly.
    Side note-how can gold coast have had 2 byes already when teams like Geelong, Essendon and Richmond haven't had one yet?

    They'll ease him back to full form before finals, just like Geelong have with Ottens in past years.

    Wood is a spud though.

    Re: Round 9 Discussion

    Collingwood supporters were complaining about frees to Selwood last week, Pendelbury is just as bad.

    Collingwood are home off the back of relentless pressure in the last quarter.

    Collingwood players make great decisions under pressure. They have a lot of guys who have the poise to take the extra second and spot up a better option or release someone who can't even be seen in camera on the TV.

    It's about to be a 5-6 goal win as I type. Still the side to beat.

    Their top gear is pretty impressive.
