Always was. Has been pretty ineffectual up to half time though. Set up at least one Hawks goal.

Dracy Moore is a great athlete. Lots of potential.

Handy goal there though.

Yep, Essendon are the ones who missed out.

Reckon Collingwood is killing Hawthorn in tight but just don't have the outside skill. Hawthorn are making the most of opportunities when they present.

Bad enough that we have to deal with Hawks and Swans being good every year but now somehow a young Pies team is top 4.

 

[alscotoz2]

The guy Crisp isn't bad.

 

[Cooties]

Just caught myself cheering for Collingwood... I'm going to need to take a shower after this game

 

[Hollow Knight]

Jesse White...

Dodged a bullet there.

Great game of footy. Especially with Collingwood losing.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Good game. Good result.

 

[Toffee Lion]

Cloke lost them this game on his own boot.

1.4

 

[ZoBlitz]

That's a win for the Brisbane mods.

Mitchell 34 touches though...

 

[Ironmonger]

This is bloody brilliant. The two coaches addressing both teams. Now a minute's silence.

Kudos to both sets of players and whoever made this happen.

Was cheering very hard, but alas no draw. Was hoping for a result where neither side won.

Clarksons idea if Tim Watson is to be believed. Fantastic stuff.

 

[Ceebee]

Gee that was a great game.
Very moving gesture after. also.
Well done to both clubs.

 

[jackess]

Very nice tribute

 

[iBeng]

Perfect really. I hope all clubs this weekend embrace this.

Mitchell 34 touches though...

He had 6 more possessions but I thought Mitchell didn't have the impact he normally has when he plays us (he normally crushes). Crisp beat him easily in every other major stat category. Regardless, Pendlebury was so far ahead of everyone tonight it wasn't funny. I thought we won the midfield for the first time in yonks but we just didn't have the skill when it mattered to get the job done. Some of it goes to inexperience but there are also a few guys who don't have that excuse - i.e. White and Toovey in particular.

The difficult thing to determine from tonights game is whether we are a genuine top 6 team or whether Hawthorn have finally faded. I'm actually leaning towards the latter, they looked really tired tonight and were only saved by our errant goal kicking. I wonder how well they'll compete Sydney in Freo in September who are physically the best teams in the AFL. I can't see them winning the premiership tbh

It's started to rain goals at the MCG now... really opening up this game
