Round 3 - Collingwood vs Footscray at Victoria Park

[Collingwood Crackerjack]

Sounds like Cox is coming along a treat; if Grundy keeps developing up forward, its not inconceivable we could have Grundy playing the 2nd forward role, with Cox as first ruck and Witts third forward/Relief ruck.

We'd never lose a hit-out!

Couldn't make it to the ground but listened to Collingwood Radio
which was great. The two young lads commentating did a good job including
background info on all our players. Biased towards us - fantastic.
It was Marsh's last quarter that stood out.

Bugger, I missed the VFL game as I was at the Rich v Geelong game.
Great win by the VFL Pies. Cheers to Bat for the thread and comments.
Keep it up.

Geez Marsh was good in that last term.

Abbott impressed me and showed that he will become quite the player if he stays the path.

And I feel confident that Cox will make it. Reckon he could be ready as quickly as next year.

Kennedy 24 disposals in 3 quarters.

Yeah he can play.
