Toast Round 20 = Richmond 57-93 Collingwood

[PonsfordMagpie]

Banked a much needed win. Solid win in the end.

N Daicos was in a class of his own.

STILL ON TOP MATE!

 

[Soups]

The only enjoyable thing about that game was watching Nick Daicos

Did what we needed to, burn the tape, move on

Get the Calvary back next week and we are a go.

Nick flipping Daicos.

Would've been a cruisy 10 goal win without some of the most despicable umpiring of the year

 

[Dubaimagpie]

A win is a win. Conditions and umpiring not great.

 

[JoinDate]

Did just enough.

Good test to see where we're at next week.

I don’t want to see the Tigs board ever complain about them being corrupted by the AFL again

 

[unplugged]

Pretty shitty conditions to win by a shit load. Did what we needed to.

 

[Jedi01]

4 Points and Daicos masterclass was great.

Plenty of concerns everywhere else. But expect us to come out and play well against Lions, just what we do.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

Job done, winter football.
Next week we show why we are on top and premiership favourite.
We are going through the motions of winter, it’s our mantra this year, the seasons of football, come September and the challenges ahead this club is gearing up for 17

I bagged him all game but his last quarter was really good!

 

[magpie_marty]

Not much to toast sorry.
I have never ever seen a player f
Fly for a mark and drop it and get a free kick.
Besides that glad for the win and look forward to some good players coming in.

 

[Heater39]

Good to bank a win but outside of Nick (who was phenomenal) that was a pretty uninspiring performance.

The next 3 weeks will tell us a lot about where we sit in the pecking order. On form we are behind Adelaide, Geelong and GWS

 

[cityslick1]

Good to get the win, but that was tough to watch.

Missed handballs, defensive lapses, some poor kicking for goal. A top 4 team would’ve smashed us today.

Hurry back Hill, McCreery, Pendles, De Goey.

Go pies

 

[Bungeye]

We refuse to downhill ski against inferior opponents.

I hope Geelong, Bulldogs and Adelaide are taking notes.

 

[whiskeytown]

I’ll grade that a C

Said in the match thread that anything more than 40 inside 50s and 60 points scored by a tigers team (with 11 players having played under 50 games) was a defensive fail.

That being said the conditions were greasy, the tigers pushed and the pies never looked too flustered

Perhaps the training loads have lifted a little in the month before finals?

Either way things will want to improve from here if they are gonna beat the other top teams…

 

[Nicco_jj]

Pretty shitty conditions to win by a shit load. Did what we needed to.

Anyone see what Adelaide did to Port in far worse conditions last night

 

[CheckerTrade666]

Nice to be back on the winners list, even if it wasn’t that convincing.

controlled a lot of the game but still very sloppy in a lot of cases. Second half of the third quarter was probably our peak.

Nick killed it, but I thought IQ played one of his better games of the season. Mitchell also picked up in the second half.

Real stuff starts now, gonna have to be at our best.

 

[Knoxy]

Would've liked a bigger margin, but just glad we got the win. Huge game against the Lions next week!

Up the Pies!

Totally agree.

 

[Lunchtime]

Oh well, disappointed with the loss, Richmond tried hard all day. Collingwood too good.

All the best for the rest of the season.

 

[live fast pieyoung]

im not convinced next week will be 4 to the floor like everyone hopes
i think its possible that both teams will be quite cagey and probably just faff around until the last quarter

 

[jjsmitty8]

Happy to win, blessed to watch Nick do his thing. I’m going to put most of the sloppiness down to weather, but can’t help feel a bit underwhelmed.

Need a big win in the next 3, the form isn’t filling me a large amount of confidence.

OTTNO
