Umpiring aside, it looked like a finals type game. Lots of pressure all over the ground, with a lot of the play confined to between the 50m arcs. Fairly low scoring.
Both teams look like they are well coached and they have players who can stand up to finals like pressure.
Without looking too far ahead, I'm going to be very interested to see how we cope with Collingwood's style of play. They have a lot of very good players, and collectively are playing a better team brand of footy. Hopefully, we're just as good if not better. After the last two weeks, who knows?
