Given how well we played last night, it's going to be difficult to make any changes. Assuming Frost just has a corkie and is available, we'll need to find a spot for Toovey and possibly Ramsay.
On form alone, you'd be tempted to drop De Goey, but I think for his/our longer term benefit, he needs to stay in the team at least until the mid term break. On that basis, I'd be hoping for just the one change.
In: Toovey
Out: Broomhead |

Agree although I'd probably be looking at Seedsman, had 2 poor games whereas Broomy had an impact when he came on yesterday. |

But we haven't beaten anyone yet!!!
North is our next test against a mid tier team (we are currently 1-3 against that group).
We haven't played any of the elite teams yet. _________________ Fighting against the objectification of woman. |

Damn it. I want Toovey back in but I don't want to drop anyone!
Then there's Ramsay and soon there'll be Greenwood. It's wonderful to have such depth. |

With the saints beating the dogs and the dogs beating the swans and the swans beating other fancies like GWS and Hawks it shows how close it can be….
Yes we need a big scalp - like the bummers, however our style of play has been impressive in the games we need to win. Compare us to the Dogs who managed to get up against he Crows and Swans but lost to the saints and Dees! I think we are building a more comprehensive game style that is not quite all there yet but coming along…
Some of the comments re 100 mins of intensity and top shelf footy is not a given for any team - look at the hawks last night - blown away in the first qtr - or even Freo who let the swans right back in after leading by heaps. The game has ebbs and flows - even the best teams can't dominate all the time - it is more about making the most of your opportunities!
I think Frost will probably be OK… but who to take out??? Broomy or Degoey for mine… getting tough to make a call… imagine the headaches when Levi and Reid are ready to go! _________________ Love us or Hate us... we are Collingwood - you can't ignore the Mighty Magpies!!! |

^^ well said YY. The good teams manage to minimise damage when they don't have control, maximize when they do. Don't do either and you can get blown away. |

While it is true that momentum swings are an integral part of the game, and even the very best teams cannot nowadays maintain an iron grip across the entire game, I think that Bucks is entirely correct in pointing out that we need to get better at containing the impact of momentum swings against us. So in the GC game we did just that...they got a real run on in the 2nd Quarter, and this time we improved on the Richmond and Geelong games by reducing the damage significantly. I think it is largely irrelevant to point out that GC is far lower in quality than the other two. Momentum swings are largely independent, at that instant, of the calibre of teams. The psychology for that time frame becomes the dominant factor. So we have to develop the strategies and the mental toughness to "weather the storm", roll back the momentum, so that normal conditions prevail and the relative strengths of the two teams becomes once again the determining factor. And the pleasing thing is that our team is really developing a toughness and grit which will allow this to happen. |

I would keep Broomhead, bring in Toovey and Ramsay, and drop De Goey and Seedsman. Seedsman has had two poor games. While many have commented that De Goey is our future, so is Broomhead, and Broomhead needs game time as well. Moreover, he had more of an impact. for time on the field, than De Goey. Give De Goey another run in the VFL. There is ample time for him. |

A game we should win and win well yet again, North are an average side and we should be able to thump them if we are a finals team.
Just glad its not at that dump Etihad, hope for some rain on Sunday, that will piss Scott off |
