We can win the flag this year for sure. We have enough depth to cover a few short term injuries. A healthy Dan McStay keeps the opposition defences honest and Dan Houston and Harry Perryman will make a huge difference around the ground.
Luke , it would be helpful if the players had their names on the jumbers , for those playing in the reserves.I watch the VFL , we need to get to relate to them?
The trick to winning a flag in any year is simply this. Sides who win flags can and will drop games to Cats, GWS, Swans & Hawks in any combination...either 1,2,3 or 4 times over...usually not 4 from 4 though. What premiership sides do NOT do, since 2012, is drop games to GC Suns or WCE or lose at round 17 when most premiership sides are winning from rounds 14-18 at about 80-85%...59 wins, 9 losses or thereabouts. Premiership sides have a 29-0 record winning against GC Suns, WCE & winning in round 17 in the AFL. This covers all sides winning as favorite or as a roughie since 2012. Before the finals in 2024, Cats had lost to GC Suns, as had Port, Swans lost to Saints in Round 17 and then got belted by Port who are no good in finals period. It's a disturbing trend when sides keep winning against Port from the Dees-Dogs GF a few years ago and keep finding ways to lose in finals...So in 2025, before the finals gets going in week 1, have a look at the record before the finals of sides playing against the WCE & GC Suns & Round 17 and see what you come up with year after year...Do a 4 game "form" ladder and see what you come up with...best way to beat the TAB every year and champion data and all the expert opinions that exist out there...
luke, how about doing reports on all the players outside the best 23. What players do outside the club? Who have record PB . Focus on the best reserves side , what to expect. What is the coaches roles , I think that's better focus , then say crap will Nick will drop off.
Nick Daicos won't drop off , if anything he will be better than ever. The Pies will be finals bound in 2025 with the inclusion of Houston , Perryman and Membery.
They need to get rif of AFL teams out of the VFL , Change it back to the VFA. And every team has there own Seconds. And play before the AFL team plays.
@ they can’t maintain the rage for long enough. When they’re in attack mode they’re as good a side as we see but can’t sustain momentum and they’re aging !
Jack Crisp to break record of most consecutive games played this year.💪💪💯%

Would love Schultz to give the birdie to all his detractors with a stand-out year!
yessss!!
Great stuff Luke let’s go Magpie’s
The HB competition past Houston is insane: Quaynor, Parker, DeMattia, Ryan and Jiath
Hopefully quaynor has more of a 23 season then 24
Nick Daicos is to AFL what Lewis Hamilton is to Formula 1
Mason Cox is every opposition's nightmare, so whether he plays well or not, they have to change their structure when he's on field.
COME ON PIES 💪💯
worst case we get hit with injuries like last year, best we make it into the top 8 anything else is a bonus ie a prelim.
Do you not think Markov is a better option to Frampton? Even if only for energy for the team?
too dissimilar roles would be the only thing. i kinda get where you're coming from though
They don’t even play the same position 😂
"Outside the top 8" wtf ? At 8:30 ??
HAHAHAHAHAH god damn it. outside the top 4***
would be nice to see AJ suprise everyone and get his mojo going. So talented but lacks competitiveness.
He needs to work harder, and that is something that you don’t need any talent to do
@TheLaughingMagpie Totally agree!
We don't have a leading goal kicker... the forwards will all create chances for each other, Would love to see Billy win the goalkicking...
@@jayelllucas8626 Billy Frampton 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Win it from outside the top 8 ? Highly unlikely ( impossible ) I would have thought 😅
if anyone can do it... we can hahahah
Without Daniher the Lions will have the Biggest fall.
@@peternut358 They will be a more likeable team without that absolute "Derrick" of a bloke in it. "Weir Doe Joe" "Cotton Eye Joe"
They can't rely on Hipwood. Over-rated! Or is he even rated?
@@occam5123 Sam Day or Will Day, can't remember his name, he was an inaugural Suns player is Weir Doe Joe replacement apparently.
@@occam5123 Hipwood is below average at best. I don't know how he gets picked every week. Fagan's pet.
@@victorpeirce4753 2 games a year Day oh boy look out what a game changer
Luke , it would be helpful if the players had their names on the jumbers , for those playing in the reserves.I watch the VFL , we need to get to relate to them?
What time is training on Thursday pls ?
No drop off, still due a Brownlow.
I just got 2025 Collingwood Membership
Collingwood spoon favourites

Outrages title swoop - our lord and saviour will never drop off ⚫️⚪️⚫️⚪️
Don’t think anyone can win outside the top 8 Luke otherwise last year.. we would’ve been the ones to do it we were in some hot form to end the season.
Collingwood magpies will finish 14-18
@ you bang your head buddy? Or just lots of air in there? We finishing top 4, 150000%
Luke where can I get one of those hats

Biggest riser in 2025: Edward Allan
Biggest faller in 2025: Oleg Markov
Markov was a fringe player last year. He can't fall much further than that.
@ a fringe player who played 11 games albeit we did have an injury crisis
Reef is a forward not a defender. But let's see.
JDG 2nd in Copeland? Not happening...Bobby hill....Josh Daicos or Dan Houston for a place.
Nick Daicos won't drop off , if anything he will be better than ever. The Pies will be finals bound in 2025 with the inclusion of Houston , Perryman and Membery.
He just turned 22 four days ago. He isn't even in his physical prime yet. So, I think if anything, there's more upside to come
I think geelong will win the 2025 flag

Cats & Hawks to miss finals 2025.
North follower here. We will finish higher than you guys, just saying. Now show the hate?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH there's no way and i'm willing to put a bet on it
@@SwoopLuke Hahahahaha, we will see mate, all the best this year
Change the title mates let’s not even start talking like that about the young GOAT it’s only on and up for daics
Won’t make the 8 in my opinion.
Totally agree with you about this
@ they can’t maintain the rage for long enough. When they’re in attack mode they’re as good a side as we see but can’t sustain momentum and they’re aging !
You guys are off your heads 😂@@Robbie-u4o
No daicos dropoff
No he isn't gonna drop off
Who gives a shit , you'll find out in the practice games
