Analysis Pies win 69-59 and through to a prelim against Richmond!

[Pie eyed]

Wants to play for a big Melbourne based club. At one stage was very keen to come to the pies, cooled a little after we put all our eggs in the Lynch basket. The fact he's off to Richmond means we may revisit the Shiel to Collingwood option. Watch this space.

I would have him in a heartbeat.
We do need a "big Backman" to anchor the defence still though.
Wish Dunny was only 25.

Finally watched the replay... I see old mate Cameron still hasn’t performed on the big stage...a half forward flanker in a CHF’s body... and how the hell did he avoid scrutiny for going at Pendles head with his elbow up in the last...

Just noticed this from the weekend...



It'd appear the ol' Sack may not have lost too much pace with his knee reco. Extraordinary.

Beggar's belief that some people on here actually want to give up two first rounders for him.
The bloke's a fraud.

Watched Varcoe on the replay, gee he uses his body well and a lot - human wrecking ball.

ANd he reads Cox's hands in packs beautifully

Welcome to finals footy. This exactly what finals teams are built on, the ability to graft a win when a wins what you need. And yes we will beat Richmond next week because we are the finals hardened side this year.

And so it was. Go Pies.

I was disappointed in this game. Could have made a statement, and yet again we struggle and ourselves are our own worst enemy. Instead of going in on an inspiring and controlling win... we go in on the back of a struggling and limp over the line type win. We will not beat Richmond next week. Tonight was about getting a psychological advantage, and we didn't do that at all. If I was a Richmond player watching that game, I'd be eager to get out on the field opposite this team.

One step at a time, one finals win at a time.

Varcoe is primed to rip a game apart, he’s been doing the hard stuff and working really hard.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Massive win. Cant remember a win as good as that before. No injuries and largely bruise free too! Well set up now to win the thing.

Sidebottom Adams Cox DeGoey Crisp and Mayne amongst the best. Langdon superb as was Grundy. I've probably forgotten a few, as usual it was a massive team effort.

Stephenson remains a worry but with his pace he wont be dropped after playing every game in his debut season. Sier struggled at times and will enjoy the long break. Moore will remain in sights for promotion but no change for me.

HUGE WIN.

We're in it now! right in it!

Just watched the replay again
Sometimes at the gameyou/I think their creeping over mark.
Langdon takes a mark in the last qtr, (about 10.40 left on the clock) almost half way down the logo.
Dusty creeps over the mark and ends up standing at the end of the logo.
Unbelievable!
