You really are a co@k headGuess what make you got it wrong!!!! I called it and now I'm drinking the profits from deliberately losing in the 4th to Collingwood.
Ah misunderstood - thought you were talking about players in our backline.Noble and Quaynor
Not saying this is correct but is the flu going around the Club amongst some of the players. You would have thought they could have run out the 4 quarters but as a team with a couple of exceptions the boys looked shot in the last quarter.Yeah he looks shot. Just not involved. May need to be dropped next week.
A utensil head that called it correctly!You really are a co@k head
To be fair it was a Pies reserve team tonight too.This is what playing a reserves grade team the week before does to your form
You couldn't be more wrong about JK. When up & about he actually plays a lot of contested footy even if not necessarily kicking a bag, and creates goals for other players. Wonder how many WCE games you have really watched if you have that opinion?I know he’s been crook, and I don’t want want to disrespect someone who has been undisputedly one of the best and most consistent performers of the modern era, but when the chips are down and there is a genuine contest happening, Kennedy for mine just comes across as someone who thinks things are just going to happen for him because he’s a good mark and a reliable kick whose kicked a lot of goals over the years
I guess that's the type of noble goals that Freo exist for.To get flogged!Pies should give credit to freo for lulling the eagles into thinking this was going to be a cakewalk. 91 point loss was all part of the plan to ensure a pies win. Well done us.
Didn't like losing the GF last year obviously. Stupid comment!. Every team who wins a flag deserves it - you just have to be in front when it counts. You only won tonight by a point you know. Sometimes one needs to learn to be gracious - whether winning or in defeat. Congrats on your win tonight - it was a good match and one team had to win and one had to lose although for awhile there in the last quarter thought it was going to be a draw! I bit my fingernails down to the bone!Why? I’d argue the dogs premiership of 16 or the tigers of17 was worth any of the eagles. Such a banal fan experience, they’ve not earnt a single one.
I had a feeling this would be the outcome as felt Collingwood were due for a win and would be smarting after last weeks loss, and we were probably due for a loss. Of course I was hoping that my gut feeling would be wrongimpressive gutsy win, good standard game overall
pies do seem to travel well, shame i didn't consider it when tipping
Wasn't that game the second last game of the H&A - think our forwards were back by then?Yeah but that game we had half the forward line out
How, both teams each had 7 players missing from the Grand Final
We’re good at that.Collingwoods flag to lose now!
Your inclusions from that GF side are names like Nic Nat, Gaff and Cameron kicking 4 goals.How, both teams each had 7 players missing from the Grand Final
Yes I agree with you, but your side tonight is no way a reserves teamYour inclusions from that GF side are names like Nic Nat, Gaff and Cameron kicking 4 goals.
Our inclusions were Crocker, and guys like Noble and Quaynor playing their first and second game.
There is a difference between the quality.
I live in Melbourne.Have you watched Channel 7 news this week at all?
Collingwood had Moore off and two kids Noble and Quaynor on debut and 2nd game. Langdon and Howe out. And they kept eagles to 1pt in last 50 minutes. Eagles should hang their heads.Nic Nat being underdone would have told on him at the end - wasn't really surprised he ran out of gas. Congrats on your win in any event - next time we meet lets hope the results reversed?
who are the 2 beginner kids you're talking about? If you're talking about Nelson & Cole - not real beginners??
Nic Nat only playing his 3rd game back from an ACL though so was obviously underdone, and you could include Barrass in that as well as also a bit underdone after a long layoff with injury, and Cameron is still a youngster learning the caper at AFL level So wouldn't say we were at full strength by any means, and then Cripps going down during the game didn't help as he's very important to our forward structure.Your inclusions from that GF side are names like Nic Nat, Gaff and Cameron kicking 4 goals.

No, of course not. We were missing a handful, but by no means was it our reserves side as quoted above. I honestly viewed it as Bucks conceding the 4 points when he named a debutant for the second week in a row, brought in Crocker, and gave Howe and Adams another week’s break.Yes I agree with you, but your side tonight is no way a reserves team
By no means were you at full strength, and whilst your points are valid, I named those guys because one had 28 hitouts and 11 clearances, one has 32 touches, and one kicked 4 goals compared to our two kids had 18 possessions and 11 possessions and Crocker had a stinker with 10 possessions, giving away 3 frees.Nic Nat only playing his 3rd game back from an ACL though so was obviously underdone, and you could include Barrass in that as well as also a bit underdone after a long layoff with injury, and Cameron is still a youngster learning the caper at AFL level So wouldn't say we were at full strength by any means, and then Cripps going down during the game didn't help as he's very important to our forward structure.
Just thought we looked out on our feet in that last quarter - why is the big question and something for Simmo to address.
Huh?Does anyone else think we threw the game?
