Collingwood Season 2012

[Q.]

Big wraps on Ugle, looking forward to watching the kid play, but got a feeling he'll be the sub.

[Q.]

After seeing Nath Brown's knee twist under his weight, I feared the worst. Seems his repaired ACL has held up to the force and has just suffered a medial ligament strain

Great news for him! Agreed Q, didnt look good when it happened!

[Jim05]

Just saw the footage, looked horrible.
Scans today revealed a strained medial, should only miss 2-4

[Q.]

Amazing that his grafted ACL held up under that level of strain.

I hope that is the case. He's a lucky boy!!!
Very important to us this year, so 2/4 weeks off then primed for the end of the year.

Great to see Didak show still runs.

[NO-MERCY]

Yes we need Didsy up & firing, a good sign on the weekend.

[Q.]

Sack Bucks.

[test]

If Reid can stay on the park for consecutive weeks Maxwells days are numbered I rekon, he Reid's (nice pun there) the ball so well he basically plays Maxwells role while still beating an opponent.

[tigerpie]

I think there is still a spot for maxy...hopefully didaks ok?
Reid going down with a quad...again..They need to get this right as he is a vital player.
Geelong gave us so much ball for the first 3 quarters and man we had some good luck.
Losing swan hurt a us lot and certainly hope its not a 6 weeker!

[NO-MERCY]

Not a fan of Keefe, his decision making is terrible, under no pressure at all, time & time again he turns it over to the opposition.
Any other takers on him?

[Jim05]

Swan and Reid both to miss at least 2 games with injuries

Reid the bigger loss with brown out, tarrant under done after playing last week on the vfl as a forward and keefe suspect at best!

Noticed another Pendlebury in the best for their VFL side, younger/older brother?
Is he on Collingwood's list?, what type of player is he?

That's Kris Pendlebury.

Was the talk two years ago about a mature age pick up but missed the boat. Think he is 25-26. Plays through the midfield I think as well

From what I have seen, he is filling a gap and improving week by week. Aint a Backmans ballon knot but someones gotta do a job. More of ruck/FWD option IMO and i think ideally thats where he will end up when Jolly moves on

[tigerpie]

He's pretty raw but he'll improve. I think he's doing an ok job being a key backman.
We've got Witts developing nicely in the ressies to take over from Jolly.

you watching the same bloke??

[nuggety goodness]

How much will the swan injury affect scotty pendlebury? He's now guaranteed to have the best tagger/run with player for at least two weeks...

[JK]

How far away is Tarrant?
