[PJ Power]

No Mihocek, Lipinski, Pendlebury for a half only. Collingwood still bloody impressive even after a goalless first half.

Credit Rowell, Anderson, Rioli, Humphries, Long and Noble.

Gold Coast’s tall forwards were disappointing after HT.

 

[all seeing eye]

Matty Rowell beast mode.

 

[Portwon]

Maturity and growth.

Might not get you a flag this year but it's a bloody good pointer that you will get there.

Remarkable strength

As long as Houston never wins a flag with the pies. Yes, I'm petty.

Not sure why youse lot wanted the Suns to win?
They have our 1st pick in this years draft.

 

[TazD]

Gold Coast's forward line is shaky af. They're too tall and lack a good small forward.

Good for them to drag out the win.

That's dependent on where we finish tho.

Suns song on repeat as if theyve just won the flag.

Pies system is a good model to follow, that just crank away all game , adhering to a plan. Always puts them in the game.

They needed to be tougher and harder at the contest for longer to win.

To be fair. Winning against Collingwood in a prime time Friday night slot is as close to a flag as they've got thus far.

Kochie would have a parade if we beat Collingwood.

 

[Waspy79]

Terrible call for deliberate

Complete shambles of a rule. Ripe for corruption, as we saw twice in the dying minutes.

 

[Willsy10]

Now prove you really are a contender by doing it away from home and beating Adelaide next weekend.

Given their history they’re probably entitled to celebrate a bit.
Host a Friday night game against a strong team. Play a really good first half then got run down.
In previous years the Suns would have just rolled over after being headed.

Yeah but they get the benefit of a 5 goal umpire in the last quarter every week. Best we don't follow that strategy.

 

[Willsy10]

Happy for the suns giants or dockers to win the flag, the rest can get fckd

 

[Festerz]

Remarkable strength

That strength below the hips really matters in our game. To be able to take and shrug off a tackle and pick the ball up from the ground under pressure.

It's something that I noticed was severely lacking in Carlton players last night.

Probably have a real downer after winning the gf tonight.

I don't think Collingwood will be too disappointed, other than the injury to Howe.

Could easily have pinched it after a horrendous first half. And Gold Coast keep the pressure on the teams in the logjam.

 

[Anyonebutken]

Interesting situation this year, gold coast still have their catch up game against essendon to play. I'm assuming they will play it during the bye week before finals which means the afl finals week one fixture won't be locked in until after that, other finals teams will need to wait and see who they play and where They might be playing for top 4 as well.

Doesn't matter, they will have to cash it in for yet another top 5 Academy product anyway.

It's up to us to keep the value of the pick down.

Maybe, or is that something we would do, good teams would use this as a platform.
