[ElliottsMaggies]

This is gold. Must watch for all Collingwood fans.
Eat a long thick one Andy Maher

Those knobs on that cringe Blues radio were the first I thought of when the siren went... couldn't wait to see their sooky little faces

Haha.

Not even sure that was the worst decision of the night either lol

Darcy Cameron being blocked by a MIDFIELDER during a ruck contest in front of the umps face and not getting the free probably wins it

I missed that one at the ground, ones that come to mind the bear hug on Hill at centre half forward, the run down tackle on Cripps in the centre and Owens’ dive when he lifted the tackling Maynard

The Good

• The win
• The win against Carlton
• The win against Carlton when their supporters are expecting the win
• The win given our significant outs.
• Our coaching - that game was won in the coaches room.
• 8 point play against a rival
• Sullivan’s goal
• N.Daicos goal to win the game
• Pendlebury’s goal
• Our pressure
• Matching Carlton for clearances.
• Daicos snr’s carry-on in the box
• 132-129-4
• HH’s game - the future looks bright.

The Bad

• McCreery’s concussion
• Voss’s mood on the bench
• Andy Maher’s mood on Blues radio
• TV commentary team. I get that commentators always have and always will barrack for a good game (talking up the team that is behind), but last night went well beyond that - when scores were level they were commentating from a Carlton-to-win POV.
• Shoota’s discipline in the final quarter. (And not just the whack from behind)

The ugly

* Blues board post match

 

[Run n Spread]

Clutch. And hats off well coached.
Completely slowed it between their arcs after 1q and even thou McKay and Curnow were on fire it never got down there.
Daicos and pendlebury bog. Everytime pendlebury gets it something happens

Peter’s celebration included deliberately exposing the midriff of The Golden Mare. Showed the world where champions are grown.

Watching the highlights, Harrison was pretty much involved with every goal in the second quarter, and in the last he was the one who marked in defence when they went in, and then was the one who tapped it forward to Naicos, I really like his game.

Harvey has some real class about him. Just proves the coaches are looking for more than just high stat collectors in the VFL.

They're the worst. After the siren tonight, a drunk Carlton fan grabbed my scarf and threw it down to the lower level. Lucky I have about 20 spare at home.

That is disgusting. It is so hard to bring the kids to the footy when there are these types all around. At least you can replace it with a Pies 2024 Premiership scarf!

LOL

Mrs Daicos deserved a premiership medal

 

[barrackers]

Round 23 2022 is still my fav.

Jamie Elliott’s goal to defeat them by a point to get us into top 4 and knock them out of finals by 0.4%, the world doesn’t get much more magical than that.

The blue fans were chirping with so much hope and excitement for finals too. Made the win more enjoyable.

Eight Carat?

 

[barrackers]

Straight after Naicos’ goal, Carlton fans immediately began leaving. A minute to go, a goal down and they leave.

Their minds are broken.

The MCG emptied out quicker than a loss by Melbourne or the Tuggers

Go to the carlton board. Meltdowns everywhere lol!

Go Pies!!! We’re back baby

Even better, make a very objective comment to a poster complaining about umpiring. They love that …

Hopefully Mick Molloy mentions it on The Front Bar, they did it for the prelim last year too

 

[unplugged]

Underwood almost found a way to even ruin that goal!

 

[brysie]

Have you watched them the past 12 months? Were you watching their ball movement after QT? Their stoppage work? That was the worst they’ve been for a while and we should have won by 4 + goals.

After QT they were beaten at stoppage, their struggles to win contest following stoppage wins, their drop off in pressure and their sloooooow ball movement were chalk and cheese with what their best looks like. We were on with our defensive systems after QT and strangled them like an anaconda with our pressure. We definitely prevented them playing to their full capacity and that was the difference.

Yeh, they didn’t play well at all. Their pressure was through the roof in the first quarter and has been good for most of the season so far, but dropped for large portions of last night’s game.

A lot of Carlton losses follow a similar pattern. They play in bursts but concede heavily if they’re not maintaining pressure around the ball.

Just had a read of the Blues autopsy thread

It's glorious reading. Highly recommend it.

They're all turning on their beloved Blues & Vossy already.

Underwood>Hudson. The call of Hudson’s was better, but injecting the Star 21 plug was cringe. Call the moment and plug the sponsor once we’re back in the centre square. I find his attempts to be a cut price Commetti awful at times, but Russell’s ability to change his tempo was best by a mile, IMO.

 

[Doc1763]

Anyone figured out how Cerra got a free kick for planting a hand in Elliots face in the 3rd quarter? I legit think the umpire forgot who hit who high. Never seen that before.

I was stunned.

 

[domus]

Well done to Noble Pendlebury Josh Daicos Crisp

Darcy Moore his best game in 12 months literally

Nick Daicos his best game of the year. Freak

Harvey Harrison looks like he'll make it

Sullivan was decent, has good composure.

Mcreery was looking great until his injury which is a shame.


WHE Sidebottom and Markov in trouble

Markov was excellent.
