Collingwood vs Carlton MCG - Round 7 2007

[TalkingFootball]

Battle of the Giants in days gone by.

Carlton is always a danger game for the Pies, no matter what the ladder or form says. Still, I'm fairly confident. Hopefully the 3 naughty boys getting suspended this week won't have a major impact. It should allow Holland, hopefully Didak and Licuria or perhaps another young gun come in so it should'nt a huge loss to the team.

Great 2nd half by the pies, shame about the first half. Hopefully the second half signalled the end of bad goal kicking because it could've finally cost us today, and if it keeps going it will.
Fair effort by the Blues, 2-3 years I reckon they'll be up there playing finals.
Fev is a champion but he's also a bit feral, needs to see a shrink or something.
