Collingwood’s chances of making finals now appear worse than slim, while Sam Mitchell’s coaching ability has been on display this season and the Bulldogs’ roller-coaster climbed up with an impressive win over the Blues.
Collingwood’s chances of making finals now appear worse than slim, with injuries robbing them of talent and the synergy needed to play the high-octane brand of football that defined them in the first two years under their coach Craig McRae.
McRae admits the time to make finals is running out. That time appears to have passed unless the Magpies turn the miraculous come-from-behind wins they mastered under the premiership coach into something on a grander scale and come from 12th to finals and flag contention with six matches remaining. James Sicily was the man on Saturday, as he moved from being an ineffective defender to become a matchwinning goalkicker with three goals in the second half.
It did, with every player contributing to the upset win. It’s a credit to Beveridge, who is in reinvention mode, both professionally and with his team. That is a major step forward for the club, which identified during two end-of-season reviews that too much was being left to too few. The win was even achieved without Bontempelli being best on ground and with players such as Cody Weightman and Rory Lobb sacrificing their natural game to help the team win.
“I did see the Giants’ video, and I’m not going to give it any air but pretty low-brow,” Harley said.Speaking after his best on ground performance against the Tigers on the MCG, Greene was bemused by the Swans’ sermon and said he was looking forward he said to catching up with Heeney on Wednesday, as the pair runs footy camps as part of MADE sports group. It’s expected to be a frank exchange of views.
