Title: Chris Newman Tonight
Post by: tony_montana on July 09, 2011, 10:15:19 PM

This is going to sting a few people but I saw him back out and not smash it at the ball tonight  - twice!

First one was in the 1st quarter, he could have smashed Hille and the ball coming in from the side, instead he veered behind, missed body contact and waited for the cheap spillage - pee poor effort.

2nd time was in the 3rd quarter high ball to the top of 50 he was under it and couldve scrambled 10-15 metres to hit the oncoming lead but stayed out of harms way allowing crameri to take an easy mark.

Captain of collingwood, as limited a footballer as he is, would have killed the ball and man on both those occassions. I'll bet this doesnt even get mentioned in the review bc he's our captain.

I was more dissapointed about those 2 incidents than anything else tonight. Very very poor effort

Believe his turnover in the 3rd quarter changed the whole momentum of the game, in fact he had a shocker of game tonight.

95% of them are scared like Kane Johnson Scared.
Insipid and pathetic.

Wasn't great tonight, Skip.

Turnover killed us, then combined with Houli's brain fade.

Houli is the one you should be highlighting for the peeweak efforts. I dont care how well he was playing, he is as timid as they come

His season has been poor. Looks a beaten man resigned to mediocrit

Coincidental that his last good game IMHO was Dreamtime.
Club has really slid since then on field.

TM 100% spot on. Saw those incidents you were talking about also.

Worst game ive seen him play, even worst than last week.

Him coming out in the press and saying he is sick of it wouldnt have helped club morale.
We're clearly where an who we are and he clearly will never win a flag.
Other wankers saying he would be a champion at a champion club should use a mirror when jacking off
