Review R23: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly vs. Collingwood

Has to be one of the best defensive performances the club has ever produced. That was unreal.

Tons of negatives and pretty lucky to win but very happy to be winning games we could easily lose rather than the other way around.

Everyone in the back half was great. Keane was probably BoG, Worrell terrific aside from one or two errors, Milera great, ANB and Keays were pretty good. Fogarty and Walker influential until the rain came, and Thilthorpe able to stand up after the rain following a quiet first half.

We beat Collingwood, but it has left me somehow even more unconvinced we can do damage in finals.
I know it's good to win ugly, but that was about the ugliest win I've ever seen.
Defence was rock solid, but unforced errors, missed targets, out on the fulls. Was a hard watch.
Was a tense watch, not "hard".

Mate, savour the win and our Ladder position :D :D :hearteyes::hearteyes:
 
Bad: Murphy

Schoenberg had more of an impact on his 22 minutes on the ground than Murphy's 103 minutes.
Unfortunately Schoeys impact wasn't positive. Both mist go out next week.

He was a mixed bag. Kept Daicos to 16 posses and he averages nearly 30, but was diabolical to start with defensively and let Daicos set up their first goal.

He also offers nothing offensively, you're basically sacrificing a player to try and slow down one of there's. With the set up the Pies had having extra talls down back I don't know how important stopping Daicos was overall to the game.

We will really need to switch back in again, we're not dealing with the pressure, despite winning. First final is going to be a real reality check I fear.
If we weren't dealing with the pressure then we would have easily loss after being down by 4 goals in the 1st quarter. Both sides played with high pressure for the entire game.
 
I might have to start writing an apology letter to Nicksy.

I still don't believe he's a great tactical coach.

But he's done an awesome job building resilience into this group.
