Collingwood had many of their better players down on the weekend, especially midfielders including Swan, Pendles, Wellingham and Ball. Whilst for the Saints I think Hayes and Goddard probably played their best games ever (especially Goddard). It would take an extreme effort for these two to replicate that standard in the replay. I just think that with so many of our players down, and to still scramble a draw, puts the pies in a better position that the Saints in the replay. It is hard to see the pies midfield, who have been so good for the whole year, play that poorly again.

Riewoldt, Dal Santo had down games, or weren't at their best. Two very influential and team lifting players when on song. St Kilda in another close one.

Saints by 9 points.

I don't want to upset all of you pies fans out there but your team has a shocking record when it comes to winning the big games.

The pies have the tendency to have a brain fart when they are in a grand final
