Where and When: Adelaide Oval, Tuesday 11 August at 6:35pm (AEST)
Last time they met: Collingwood 17.12 (114) def Adelaide 6.12 (48) Round 22, 2019.
What does it mean for Adelaide: Well, if they are lucky they could get their first win. But probably it means they get games into kids.
What does it mean for Collingwood: If it means anything other than a win, and a bit of progress up the ladder, they will be hanging their heads.
Supercoach Watch Crows: Surprising amount of SC players for the Crows. Doedee, Laird, B Smith, RO’B, and some cows!
Supercoach Watch Pies: Grundy! Adams, Maynard, Sidebottom, and Crisp.
Father Dougal Watch: Ruscoe! Because I own him and darn it, I want to see him do well and keep his job!
Father Dougal’s Tip: The Battle of the Birds! Oh, wait, The Clash of the Corvids! No amtter what you call it, I expect a Murder of Crows, and I’m not talking about a large number of them. Collingwood by 24

No late changes for either team. Grundy is playing.
Welcome to the team Schoenberg.
I’ve given you a spot at M8 this week over Buda.
No pressure, but anything over 68 will make my best 18
And , you might just hold your spot !
A big one from Grundy wouldn’t go astray either.
11 at the 1/2
Might be a bust ?
I need a big second half out of you son !
50 for Grundy
Could do anything this half.
Cameron ( long gone from my team ) unsighted on 7
I like the Crows in a close one here.
Fanfooty scores not loading ??
All good.
My tech team new recruit Adams is off to a flyer!Replacing Treloar!
I’m thinking Laird might be d6 now he is playing in the guts……final trade for Williamson.
Maybe, he won’t get to play against a second rate pies midfield every week.
yeh , he looks the goods
ffs Adams again butchering it..
yes, but getting very favourable scoring from CD in the second quarter … the calls he’s been given as ‘accurate disposals’ leave quite a bit to be desired
Mcpherson to Saad looked such an easy trade 🙁
pies gna have to work hard interstate with all their injuries
Grundy doesn’t look right to me also
Grundy and Gawn might both miss this week
Gawn probably play a lot more fwd until he recovers from that torn shoulder
D’s got another ruckman they want to get games into anyway
might hold Goldie to the end and swap Grundie to Gawn instead eh Wighty??!! *wink*
You been spying on my team Macca !!??
lynch hammy ?
Grundy defiantly has an issue
didn’t even try to contest that mark
Doedee hasn’t gotten into the game too much, but managing to get a decent score due to some spoils. Laird on fire though with 21 disposals in the first half!
Doedee done well considering it hasn’t been down there
Really, Schoenberg? THAT’S the score you’re going with? 14 @ HT, cmon.
Will be satisfied with 40. Please.
I’m a 1 eyed pies supporter and thought this might be a danger game…… but geeeee Grundy looking like he won’t make top 18 score in my side and my side ain’t that good!!
probably would have been dropped in a stronger team
recon he’s been injured for 3 weeks now
having said that he’ll probably score 150 in the 2nd 1/2 now 😉
Half Time and I’m almost too angry to put the scores up. Woeful effort by the Pies so far and heading towards a defeat to the bottom of the ladder side Adelaide. I’ve got the vodka bottle beside me as I type this…..
ADEL 3.4.22 lead the PIES 2.1.13

Cmon pies
Bobo you must have a strong side
Grundy @ 51 at half time
Keep it going Laird and McPherson but not at the expense of a pies victory
@pbuzz… slightly tongue in cheek. However, he was single figures at qu time I believe. And no, my side ain’t crash hot!
I hate looking for excuses but we have 6 to 8 out of our starting 22….
Our depth being tested Bobo
My response was a bit tongue in cheek also.
I think Grundy hasn’t been as influential this year despite SuperCoach scoring .
Players stand taller with Pendle’s , Degoey xfactor missed and Howe as general in defence ; Trealors run and carry ; Moore will be back next week hopefully .
Besides those 5 Brown boys could come back
Goes without saying pbuzz. Definitely agree your comment Grundy. I’m only listening on radio to game but commentators saying he looks very tired. Sadly with all the injuries think we might be just making up the numbers and I hate saying that. However, Grundy has proved me wrong with sc score tonight.
DRAPER “Managed” tomorrow from Essendon’s teams. That’s going to kill a lot of teams with Gawn also out.
@lisa. Took the gamble and traded Gawn for Nic Nat.
yeh Belchambers back , makes it hard for draper
Tomorrows ins & outs
GCS IN – Fiorini, Corbett & S Flanders (new)
GCS OUT – Sexton, Sharp, Holman
ESS IN – Clarke, Gleeson & Bellchambers
ESS OUT – Townsend, Huelry & Draper
Did they just say on fox remaining teams to not have a bye will all take it at the same time I think he said there will be a round with 4 games to be played
i thought it was R 15 & 16
Is this the end of the auto gwundy combo vice/ captain?
McHenry looking like he might get his best score for the season…..and he’s sitting on my bench without the on E him – typical
Doedee putting up another good score
My 18th player is going to be Ruscoe or Cameron at this stage soooo
Go Trey Go!!!!
not saying this game has been poorly umpired , but ,
i wonder if the WA & SA umpires will show less favoritism from now on ,
in a focused attempt to host the GF
c’mon Grundy , ton up
3/4 Time sees Coll 7.1.43 (with a goal on the siren to D Cameron) to Crows 3.8.26, a better quarter considering the number of key Pies players not there tonight. Crows have lost Tom Lynch, iced up & on the bench. I’ve calmed down a bit (vodka helps).

Thanks Lisa.
Cameron got a gizillion points for that goal
I took a massive punt 2 weeks ago and traded Docherty instead of Doedee when he was potentially injured (ended up missing a game).
Haven’t regretted it so far looking at his 3/4 time score…. Will see how it pans out for the rest of the season…???
Just had to look at the raw numbers and couldn’t justify trading Doedee out over him….
Also, dont ask why I had to trade someone of that value as it was all about my trade plan….
Looks like im targeting Laird in the next trade
definite role change.
I started him and thought he might be a dud pick but is getting midfield minutes now.
if Doedee’s out , Laird might have to go back into defense
too expensive now after tonight and too much uncertainty for his role with Doedee out now …
Love him to have his bye soon.
Doedee, ice on the hamstring on the bench
geez , brodie smith , 1 bad kick & the crows take their bat & ball & go home
mentally fragile team
Oh man! Spoke too soon! Doedee off with a hammy again.
Will probably be the one that they took a graft from for his knee….. Been there and done that
Doedee hammy
Come on Grundy push to a good total for captain!
I bought in Mihocek 2 weeks back to plug a hole in my forward line and be a stepping stone but…back to back games of 90’s and Melb and North the next two weeks.
Thinking I might keep him for a couple more rounds?
T/U Keep
T/D Sell
TU
take woodcocks 81 or
TD
Go with d smith
Thanks !
Grundy resting on the bench now!
Grundy Taylor Steele all on the bench.
Looks like they’ve shut up shop
Yep that sucks but understandable on what they are doing
So where does Adelaide go from here 0 wins
I think they’ve played all the other bottom 4 teams too…
They get Rory Sloane back and Brad Crouch back soonish
Bulldogs and cats their next to opponets
Macrae will score 200 against them (ok he’ll go huge)
They’ll beat my hawks in two weeks.
Final Scores – Pies find a way to win 10.2.62 defeat the Crows 5.8.38
