Grand Final 1/4 time

[Macca19]

Collingwood 1.4 10
Brisbane 0.4 4

Interesting start to the match. Very tough and tight with both teams blowing some chances right in front of goal before Rocca kicked a goal from the boundary with only 3 minutes left to give the game the first goal.

Ive never seen a team tackle as good as Collingwood are at the moment. Brisbane have had no space to work in at all.

Mcdonald is out with a dislocated shoulder already which could cause problems to the Lions chances today.

Best players so far:
Collingwood - Betheras, Freeborn, Burns, Fraser, o'bree
Brisbane - Pike, Keating, Lappin, Hart

Brisbane allowing the Collingwood players too much room.
Collingwood tackling very freociously, but nothing in the game so far. Both teams failing to convert their chances.

Losing McDonald was a big loss, but I don't think Voss' "injury" is as bad as the commentators suggest.

Collingwood are playing too defensive, they won't be able to keep it up especially if it dry up a bit.

The lions are self destructing, damn they didnt get into the finals with stupid undisciplined acts ala johnson and lynch.
the boys need to get their act together

Didn't realise Eddie's payment covered the Grand Final aswell as the Prelim Final, the umpires are slaughtering Brisbane.

Brisbane are slaughtering themselves with undisciplined football, playing the man & some of the acting from their players would win an Oscar.

Not at all, just stating the facts.
