Not a Cats fan btw.


How many hit the target after half time ;)


Yes, get that, but 43 possessions with a 40% turnover still makes you an elite mid.

Earlier kicks that went further were called too short and then Guthrie kicks one 8m.....



Agreed. One kickout (i think enright marked it in 3rd) was at least 20m and called play on. Lucky he was in a bit of space.

Patrick played wonderful today.

Crows don't look like they are top 8.

What happened to Freo?...

Bulldogs look the goods early..

Hawks has 7 or 8 out...

Look like a great AFL season in 2016..

I dislike collingwood but Im with you on this one. Basically Collingwood cant do shit as they seriously dont have the info. Basically Robo can say anything, hide behind his journalist privilege and not reveal his source. Itnis scum journalism no doubt, but really its par for the course.

I agree that what Robbo did was a scum act.

Well articulated by the coaches about how they lack control when players' are on holidays.

I wouldn't expect Robbo to get any further insider info from Collibgwood for future articles when he needs it.
Matty Wade is a star and deserves more respect from the forum family!

Bucks and Scott circled the wagons and took Robbo to task over semantics .. The fact the clubs can't make public comment on it isn't any journalist's fault

The fact that he guessed numbers and used the highest profile club to grab a headline is his fault though

I (personally) don't really see the exact number being relevant .. Whether it's 9,10 or 11 I don't think changes the impact of the story/situation. Like Robbo himself inferred unfortunately Collingwood will carry the can for it, being the only named club, but he couldn't confirm the others so didn't name them. The one area I think Bucks might have had a point was when he suggested that Robbo could have sat on the article for a week until he could confirm/name the others. But I i don see too much wrong with what he's done. Too many bigger issues at play here.

Geelong win a close one against the best side in the cimp

Round 1 has shown the Danger affect already

One team goes from being a potential top 6 side to an 8 battler while one goes from being a top 8 battler to potential top 4 candidate


Sums it up quite nicely unfortunately

The number isn't relevant and the club isn't relevant. It's pretty clear he used Collingwood for his own agenda.

The real question is which CEO leaked him the information... Not hard to figure out his source.
