Predicted scores were not that far off the final score. The difference in the goal accuracy was predominantly a function of what sort of shots were generated by each side.
The way Collingwood plays allows themselves to be beaten behind the last man which leads to easy shots at goal which is a big part of why Brisbane kicked so accurately with so many shots inside 25. Watching the game, I didn't think Brisbane had one of those "can't miss a shot" games.
Will be interesting to see if/how Fly changes things up to counter teams that pushes up on the handball chains like Brisbane did to sweat on any turnovers. The dew that happens in Brisbane during night games wouldn't have helped their handball game either.
Lol that’s a load of s**t that. We had a heap miss from right in front. Daicos and Elliott for example

All that predicted score rubbish is a waste of time. Anyway I am not going to argue, you deserved the win and you won. That’s the long and the short of itBoth of those were factored in. Daicos was 86% chance of making his shot, and Elliott was 59% chance of making his (set shot from 41.0m, 26° angle). Combined those gave around +10 to the predicted score (vs. +2 actual).
A lot of Collingwood's misses were shots from more than 45-50m, on the run or set shots from tighter angles than 45°.

It's not like Collingwood missed a ton of set shots from 30m out directly in front.
Ash Johnson in the first quarter.Six rushed behinds for the Pies according to AFL stats.
Apart from Mihocek they had no one playing deep forward who looked likely.
Put two rucks in the side would change things with a couple of marking targets.
Ash Johnson in the first quarter.
Pure jealousyWhy the hate for Daicos… as much as it pains me to say it, the kids going to be a superstar.
While he is a great player and had a good game, he like a lot of Pies player went missing in the 2 nd quarter when the game was on the line. Got a lot of the ball when the game was overNo easier way to out yourself as a loser than by picking on a 20 year old who is a top 10 player in the game. He was BOG once again tonight, something that’ll happen more and more often
yep, 18.8 tells the story, the Lions strolled in goals multiple times, should never be that easyI thought Collingwood's press was too aggressive last night.
They all seemed to push up hard towards the contest, but whenever Brisbane won the ball and bombed it long, they seemed to have a lot of free players in their own F50.
The way the Pies supporters and players were celebrating after winning the first week's was way over the top and looked like they were celebrating a GF win so they are definately back to earth with a thudRidiculous thing to say. They lost to Brisbane in Brisbane. Mind you not disgraced as well.
I still feel our best is as good as anyones. Enjoy our round 4 loss
'Lions just need to hold on for the next couple of minutes' (end of 3Q)Ch7 commentator Brian Taylor goes too far, is complete laughing stock
Football commentator Brian Taylor went too far on Thursday night and has been absolutely torched across the footy world. The Lions at one point led by a game-high 38 points — but Taylor’s one-sided commentary suggested the Magpies were breathing down the Lions’ necks.
Looks like everyone was reading this thread last night, Bigfooty users leading the way again!
It's very embarrassing, Fox News standard commentary'Lions just need to hold on for the next couple of minutes' (end of 3Q)
Collingwood-positive bias was staggering last night
He wasn’t thoughNo easier way to out yourself as a loser than by picking on a 20 year old who is a top 10 player in the game. He was BOG once again tonight, something that’ll happen more and more often
Yeah BT made a complete fool of himself last night, even as a neutral it annoyed the crappola out of me. Brisbane deserved better, they played a mighty game with some individual efforts that should have been the focus. I mean 10 unanswered goals, c’mon.'Lions just need to hold on for the next couple of minutes' (end of 3Q)

St Kilda have a replica trophy and 10 Blu Ray set out next week for theirs, so why not?Undefeated in March were the woods… should that be celebrated?
No-one is denying that he isn't a gun. But he also plays selfishly and has now shown, as last night's game clearly shows, that he gets scared in a lot of the physical aspects of the game. A gun though. But the way he got spooked out of contests was hard to watch. Jack Watts stuff.Pure jealousy
I literally saw him fumble about 10 times last night and his disposals were nothing. About 5 of his disposals were in a pack and he just handballed it into a players shins just to get the stat. I see a pure accumulator and nothing else. At this stage anyway.Then you’re not watching properly. He’s had silky smooth hands tonight.
Same against you but, when you got on top in the middle we were exposed. The defence relies upon us winning it at the sourceI thought Collingwood's press was too aggressive last night.

Everyone knows the Pies can erase a lead like that fast - the ABC radio commentary was saying as much, just not as OTT as Channel 7.It's very embarrassing, Fox News standard commentary
We had started the season well but last night was a thrashing
10 goals to nil and never genuinely threatened after that
I like him forward at the moment and if we had a proper ruckman I wouldn’t actually mind a few minutes a quarter through the ruck as he did provide a point of difference at times in there.Has an amazing set of hands. Would make a handy intercepting defender if he wasn't such an effective marking forward.
