The match will be won in the midfield. If Pendles, Treloar, Adams and Sidebottom can get on top then we're a chance.
Elliott is a massive loss. He's our most competent and lively threat up forward so his absence will hurt, but hopefully the likes of Fasolo can fill his void the best they can.
A big congratulations to Callum Brown for making his long-awaited debut today. If he's half the player that his father was, we have a potential gem on our hands.

Yep I agree although the match will be won on the scoreboard. Congratulations to Callum Brown hope the kid does well today.
If we can capitalise on our opportunities. I really can't stand Melbourne.
We need to turn the Demons back to the Fuchsias so Checker Hughes can turnover in his grave.
Although I'm worried it will be a fuchsias market.
Go Pies.

Lol the Dee's
Would be big wheels dependant on our charity this round as they have been for years.
Doesn't stop them being arrogant campaigners though.
My best mate would be turning in his grave at the current MFC administration and culture. |

One things for sure. Bucks doesn't gift games to anyone, regardless of their name or pedigree. He has earned his call up based on good form in the VFL, so he is ready. Put him down for 2 goals. |

Today is the first game that our four first round picks from 4 and 3 years ago, respectively, will play at AFL level together. This is rarely discussed when Buckley's tenure is analysed.
Scharenberg and Aish (swap for Freeman) from 4 years ago and De Goey and Moore from 3 years ago.
Interestingly, the top 10 draft picks from the last five years from both sides are as follows:
Collingwood: Aish, De Goey, Hoskin-Elliott, Moore and Scharenberg.
Melbourne: Oliver, Petracca, Salem and Tyson.
Thus, despite Melbourne being uncompetitive for most of the last five seasons, bar this season and last, we actually have more top 10 picks of the last five years playing today than they do. Therefore, kudos should be given to Hine and his recruiting staff for regenerating the list without bottoming out and becoming uncompetitive for a number of seasons. |

Excellent observation.
It goes to show how much we've been adversely impacted by injuries in the last few years. As it stands, we still are in many respects.

Jez now you're asking for it LOL
Don't you know that according to some here injuries are no excuse? We could be fielding an entire VFL level side in an AFL game and some here would be sprouting the same old rubbish. |

Pies to get home by 7 after trailing by 13 mid way thru the last quarter. Howe to get the Neale Daniher medal - which incidentally I have put a couple dollars on - paying $21.

I hope they have a strategy to stop the effectiveness of the hard tag by Vince on Pendles.
I also hope someone runs through that little shit Viney. I thought his father Viney Snr was the scumbag. The apple hasn't fallen far from the tree.
We also need to be mindful of Watts & Jones. Jones always does well against us & Watts had a pretty good day against us the last year.

Jones plays well against anyone, he is very consistent yet somehow under rated.
