Nope. Sure, it could happen. And yeah we have some stars out. Treloar probably isn't as bad as an out as some may think. He turns it over a lot, even though he gets the ball (which I know, can happen when you play that kind of role, always under pressure)Anyone else getting the feeling that the Crows might get their first win of the year against the Pies at Adelaide Oval tomorrow night? Sorry Jen but it's been such a weird season and their form has been really questionable as of late, plus losing Treloar is a big blow to the midfield. Obviously I could be a guilty of pulling for a result here because it's better for us if Collingwood lose but I think a lot of warranted questions are being asked of the Pies right now given the way they have been playing lately.
Two games to go in round 11 and if both go our way (we win and the Crows win) then we'll be just two points outside the top 8.
Sure, the pies haven't been playing great as of yet. I did see good signs in that second half of the swans game. Also, if they were more accurate, it would have been 14 goals, 6, not the other way around.
I'd like to think even the pies poorest team should be able to win. Some big achievements in this game. Two blokes who haven't played in 2 years. Dunn, who did two ACL's, and then Tim Broomhead, who.. I'm not sure if anyone here remembers, but he broke his leg in round 2, 2018. It was v GWS at the G. I was at the other side of the ground, the ponsford, but I remember seeing someone go down, but didn't know who or what happened. And nobody needs to see that vision ever again. The replay was just too much. So he has come a long way himself. I hope it gives them some energy to find some form.
But I think also last week's win should give them some confidence. Moore is a big out, but Dunn will be taking that place. Varcoe and Mayne back in, even just for experience. And Darcy Cameron replacing Reid (who is being rested, due to his injury history and the short turnaround)
I'm sure the crows will do everything to win, but I would hope pies will do the same. It would be a pies thing to lose against them though lol But I have faith it shouldn't happen.
If i'm honest, the way they are playing they prob aren't worthy to play finals. But things can change very easily, we went through a bad form patch last year, but got back into form from some lower teams. reached a prelim. No reason it can't happen (unlikely). But just taking it one game at a time. Whatever happens, happens I guess.
