Game Day AFL Preliminary Final - Matchday Discussion GWS@Collingwood(MCG – 4:35PM)

[loki04]

Got killed in clearances and contested possessions. That’s where it was lost.

And on the outside. So many times Williams sat 10m off the back of the stoppage and would receive either a handball or our scrubbed kick to then launch a clean attack.

Our coaching group need a long hard think on allowing this as it's been a constant of Buckley tenure.

Also not having a genuine CHF and FF is telling, Mihocek really is a great 3rd tall bit soundly beaten tonight.

Garry Lyon on fox, massive smirk on his face. You ******* prick of a human

Fox footy (besides Spud, Dunstall and Eddie) can get ****ed.

 

[Egga]

Great comeback. You guys were absolutely reamed by the umpires.

 

[regpies]

Why did it take 3 and a half quarters to start playing hard and desperate footy

 

[GoDaics]

The scalpers will be spewing hahaha

On the plus side we have no salary cap space, no good draft pick and our most important players coming out of contract.

 

[TimmeT]

Lolololol

You can experience what the 34 Essendank players felt by getting banned

 

[PhiloBeddoe]

No. Very ordinary footballer.

Maybe true but busts his balls to do what he has to so if he wants to cry in frustration, we armchair specialists should at least give him that.

 

[NeverWobble]

Out coached. No idea hw to play wet weather football.

Exactly.

 

[regpies]

Great comeback. You guys were absolutely reamed by the umpires.

The third quarter was the worst umpiring I’ve ever seen. The non free to Grundy for push in the back was disgraceful

 

[DWil6]

Great comeback. You guys were absolutely reamed by the umpires.

Might have got a handy touched goal but outside that, they had a handy run.

 

[shizzle]

Oh well, GWS were the better side for the most part. Can't blame the umpires, we had the better of it. Not enough blokes stood up when it counted.

 

[regpies]

Out coached. No idea hw to play wet weather football.

They beat us just as badly in the midfield when it was dry in rd18

 

[BringouttheGimp]

That was not a gutsy effort.. 95% Collingwood crowd.. playing a side that simply doesn't win there.. they lose greene and whitfield.. woeful effort.

Typical Buckley game.. confusion as to who the * does what out there.

How the * can you lose a game like this.

Absolute gun of a player.

Beats losing another granny

That’s when a forward needs to come up to round him up but you know “why are our forwards up so high?”

 

[ExcitementMachine]

I never ever like to blame the umpiring but damn me that 3rd qtr cost us

That was umbelievable... I like everyone else thought we were gone we played like s**t, but that was one sided sans swans v dogs 2016....

 

[jjsmitty8]

Not gonna lie, that stings, but you can’t play one quarter in a Preliminary Final and expect to win. The right team won and we went down swinging. Bring on 2020.

 

[regpies]

A tall forward standing up taking a big grab and kicking a goal would be nice.

Richmond doesn’t win last night without Lynch standing up. We had no one stand up

 

[Temploar]

Congrats to Brisbane on their draft pick

Looking forward to the 30-something year old "recruit" with a dodgy body, and his dodgy off field antics.

Premiership window is over.

 

[Aishole]

And people wonder why I had a go at people carrying on like we were already in the GF and won it? This is why. Nothing was ever guaranteed. We didn’t show up and it cost us.

And if i hear someone say it was due to the umpires i’ll blow up. Because if we had of showed up and played good footy, we would’ve won, regardless of who is umpiring.

 

[loki04]

There goes our window. Well never win a gf under buckley era now. Another rebuild will poom soon. Need to be bold in the trade table

Yeah we are very close to needing another partial rebuild.

Hopefully this time like in 2010 team we start with drafting 3 strong low pick KPP (Reid Brown Dawes)

Getting the spine right is crucial mids are dime a dozen (bar your Buckley/Dangerfield types who are real game changers).

This team really lacks a star midfielder and by that I mean a mid who can carry a team. Pendles is a champ but he is more Simon Black then Nathan Buckley.
