Welcome bavk to talented forward Jamie Elliott after missing 573 days through an horrific back injury and Darcy Moore who missed most of last year. Welcome back also Dayne Beams, a 2010 Flag-Pie who left the club to be closer to his ailing father. His dad passed away last year and he's been welcomed home with open arms. Former premiership Bulldog Jordan Roughead debuts as well.

Our opponents are a veteran Geelong team with 6 new inclusions. A good injection of pace with former Swan Gary Rohan coming in and another premiership Bulldog Luke Dalhaus.

Both teams played finals last year so this should be a strong Round One matchup.

Bloody awful game so far. Kicking for goal from both teams has been apalling. Marks dropped all over the ground, often under no pressure.

Geelong wins 72-65. Collingwoid just fidn't have the legs late. Similar to last year's Grand Final. We'll probably start 0-2 with Richmond next week, but I think we'll do well enough against the lesser clubs to play finals. Don't know about the Cats this year. Looked poor for most of the first half. A better opponent would have got out to a 30 point lead.
