Wills has gone ahead of Sier in 2019, making the crash and bash position his own, even making Adams look like an outside mid

He monstered half of Adelaide, no matter what size they were. He, Greenwood, Maynard, Varcoe, Adams, Elliott, Brown, Mayne, Grundy. They are the steel we need.

^ Yep - agree. Hasn't Varcoe found some form at the right time, and looks very dangerous in our forward line once again...

I agree with Cam's analysis. Rupe is our Grissly, while Sier is our Panda.

Levi Greenwood interviewed after match and his heart felt feelings for Bucks and the club tells me all the disruptive external crap is not getting the traction
it needs to crack our resolve

The game was notable - for the first time in a very long time - for Collingwood's magnificent field-kicking. Maynard, Crisp, Elliott, Pendlebury, Sidebottom, Treloar, Adams and Brown were all able to thread devastating kicks into forwards in very dangerous positions. If they can hold that form, they can actually beat anybody.

That mode of play and their ability to maintain it for at least 95% of the game was the equivalent of Preliminary 2018 with out an outstanding game from the 211cm giant

hard to believe he wasn't carrying something that he's now recovered from.

About 10 to go in the 3rd term he beats 3 crows players to hacked ball forward and with them closing in quick he threads a handball out to Crisp then shepards 2 crows away giving Crisp that extra couple seconds to make a good decision

Naturally qldmagpie67, I watch my boy closely every game he plays. His confidence is growing steadily week by week. That particular passage of play was so encouraging and had me thinking that he is well and truly on his way back to his best.

Yep the Adelaide win was so gratifying and wonderful to watch and the after glow lasted all the way into Sunday for me.
Then I watched some of the Cats v Lions replay, Richmond v Eagles and the Bulldogs game live and I thought "Oh, bugar!!" to put it mildly.

Still, it's a strange old season and anything could happen.

Howe, Elliott and Pendlebury made this week's "team of the week": https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-08-20/ ... es-the-cut
