Yeah, this is where I'm a bit lost - a lot of the commentary about how Carlton played better the whole game mystifies me. We outplayed them in the first half, they demolished us in the third quarter, and we outplayed them in the final quarter + they made error after error.
Yep they were a point better.
Yep just 1 point better, you are thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat close, thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat close, jeeeeze that's close, 1 point.
Yep same old same old over the off season again.
I don't think you outplayed us in the fourth at all. We had about double your inside 50's in the quarter and kicked no goals. I know Collingwood plays a transition brand and they do it well, but I would say most of the last was on our terms. Plus I think although the Pies missed a few shots, they also kicked a few rippers (Johnson banana, McCreery boundary, even Elliot's wasn't easy) whereas Carlton just kept missing.
That makes your effort even worse then, you have the last 2 coleman medalist, get delivered more of the ball and 2 of our small forwards outscored them.
Yeah ok, I meant goals, you win colemans by kicking goals not points.
There's a bit more to dominance than inside 50s, especially with the lack of connection that your mids have had with your forward line the last month. To each their own
Ok top 9
enjoy
