Analysis Post game Pies v Suns. A terrific win

[Magpie Girl]

A win is a win is a win.

Yes there were errors and some sloppy play but how good to see White play with confidence, Elliott come good in the second half, Fasola get some important goals, Pendlebury play a great captain's game for his 200th, and Goldsack play a blinder.
Everyone contributed and we saw some best efforts from many.

And boy, was it good to have Sidebottom back


Hope Frost is ok.

Regardless of how scrappy that was, if you'd offered me a 69-point win I would have grabbed it with both hands.

Lots of positives to take away.

Will want to play far better next week.

Frost corkie

Pendlebury is 27, 200 games. Can he break 311 games record for the pies. He would have to go another 5 years

Browny noooooo don't put anyone on your shoulder.

 

[Rorzza]

Wow

71 POSSESSIONS FOR SWANDLEBURY.

LOL those last two goals we conceded cost us a ladder position.

Varcoe 100% DE from 29 disposals, that has to be a record?

 

[Pera]

Varcoe looked good offensively off half back but seriously lack confidence in him when he has to defend. Lucky we were playing the GC.

Langdon was woeful and can't see what everyone else sees in him. I'd drop him for Ramsay or Tooves.

Centre clearances still a massive concern.

Good win nevertheless.

Should be in 5th place come the end of the round, not bad! Pies looked good tonight, were never going to lose, looked like a mature team just a bit off their game.

You know, I reckon we were still pretty average tonight.

We were worse than average. Bad kicking for goal and the fact that it was their reserves side is the only reason we got that result.

We don't expect to win every week. Just want to see development in players like Marley and co and want to see players having a dip. Our intensity dips at times. The Kangas are very hard at the contest so could be a tough hit out.

Need to do better to beat North though, toovs and ramsey would help

Goldsack 24 disposals...100% efficiency.

Negative. Langdon was fine.

No doubt. But that doesn't change the fact that we'll need to play better than that to have a serious shot.

Nah

 

[HeavyPop]

Where did the entitlement on this forum come from? How often do people say we're a young side, it will take time, etc and then the second we aren't kicking a goal a minute, people write the team off. At least add something to the discussion, rather than simply posting "we are s**t" or insulting a player.

 

[Scodog10]

Not a whole lot to like out of it considering the quality of the opposition was dreadful, but we got the job done so no real gripes aside from the intensity of Langdon and Seedsman. They played like blokes who know they won't be dropped, IMO.

 

[Vicky Park]

Good on us. Did what we had to do. You can only beat what is in front of you; we needed to smash them and we did. Can relax now and enjoy the rest of the weekend. (My life is ruled by Collingwood)

 

[ppoiter]

We just did what we had to tonight, least impressive 11 goal win I've seen. Some good signs, some bad, let's just be grateful we weren't up against decent opposition. Great to see Jesse White have a good game

Bullshit mate. We were sloppy in the second quarter but cleaned that up nicely in the second half. Enjoy the win and stop whinging.
