Thread: Changes for round X Collingwood Magpies

    Clarke obviously tagged well and maybe he needs that for confidence but 47 possessions is still the work of someone who knows how to get his own ball
    He looks like he is jogging half the time and only kicks short, the hallmarks of someone trying not to over commit and operating under strict instructions

    Thought he made a couple of effective long kicks from defence v the Kangaroos. Isn't his handballing the issue more than his kicking?

    Its both, but I'd agree that his handballing is worse. I've said it many times but I just can't comprehend how anybody at his level of football could be so bad at what is the easiest skill to master. I'd go so far as to say that his handballing skill level would be considered bad at suburban/regional level.

    Surely if we can teach an Irishman to kick, we can teach an Aussie to handball

    If the "will they be part of the next flag dictum" is employed, then probably not.
    Loose translation from the Latin is - I am tall, so I hit out.

    His new role might just save his career.

    Elliot, Moore, Adams, and Cox will still be missing for the Pies this week. Varcoe out on suspension. DeGoey was listed to return by Buckley today, but Tom Browne reported DeGoey pulled up sore after training & isn't a certainty.

    Update: Tom Browne reporting this morning Langdon also will be missing for the Pies but Daniel Wells will be making his long awaited return. Good news is that he reported Buddy will play but he didn't give any update on JPK.

    Are you sure Guru Browne is on the money?

    If he is right about all of it, makes our job a fair bit easier!
