    Think it speaks volumes about both teams.

    Both are fairly ordinary, IMO.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

      Could be another example of not taking opponents seriously. We have to make sure we don't fall into this trap.

        Norf are banking a lot of early wins though, which has them well-placed for top 4. To be fair, I reckon their win in Round 1 against Adelaide was excellent - high quality game from both teams.

          After Bob's Knee and such a hard fought battle this is a concern for me against the Blue's.

            Yeah, I think Norf will be thereabouts again and could push for a top 4 spot.. Our game aginst them in a few weeks time shapes as a potential top of the table clash.

              Collingwood are woeful at the moment. They fluked their win over Richmond.

                With a team chockfull of experience, they should be thereabouts. Just feel they lack enough top end talent to really outgun the big dogs.

                Having a ruckman like Goldstein does paper over the cracks, somewhat.

                I'd back us to beat them and will be pretty disappointed if we don't.

                  Agree Comrade.
