Some poetic moments from the game:
1. Phil Matera's goal in the last quarter. After copping the worst of the abuse from Pies fans on what was a pretty ordinary performance. Little Phil made the call "I may only be a small man guys but don't give up on me" in those last minutes and did the magical. The Matera boys are Vic opposition supporters favorite targets and it was great to see Phil win one back for the family for a change.
2. The tragic misses by Tarrant and Rocca because of the suade dancing shoes they chose to wore. Go with the footy boots next time.
3. The umpires coming to their senses and awarding some decent WCE frees after getting Collingwood back in the game with bad bounces in their goalsquare and turning a blind eye to some high tackling and holding the ball decisions that were baltantly obvious.
4. Andrew Williams being shut down very early in the game. This was always going to happen. That's why Woosha didn't play Adkins.
5. Chris Judds absolute beauty that shut every Collingwood supporter up with 2 minutes to go.
6. Michael Brauns sealer a minute later that sent them packing.
Walking into the ground with 2 Collingwood supporting mates, they politely pointed out that there was barely an Eagle to be seen. On the final siren the ground was already half empty and the blue and gold song was soaring.
Is it just me or does the song have a bass-ier punch to it nowadays? Sounds a lot better.
