Autopsy What just happened? A draw???

[ThexderX]

You want to bet that Bucks coaches in 2018 champ?

Yep. Name your price and put your mo key in Escrow.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

For those bagging Blair I hope you got no enjoyment from his last quarter goal. There's heaps of little things that could have made a difference and for mine it's unfair to single one player out.

Unless that player just loves to cost the team games multiple times a year through his sheer awfulness and stupidity in the dying moments of games...

 

[Saintly Viewed]

I actually have calmed down listening to that painful painful painful Bruce.

At least there was no BT - phew.

 

[DrDavoren]

If you were a neutral support was probably a very good game, had it all and a super ending.

As a Collingwood supporter not sure what to make of it. Gutted, angry and lost for words

Gotta give it to them they never gave in, but on the other hand not sure why we have these massive lapses when we can't play a solid four quarter game.

We need to persist with the kids as a lot of them showed a lot.

Would like to see Kirby in for a chance before he season is out.

We severely lack some leadership to steady us at times, apart from two Melbourne discards we don't seem to have any others - this is my biggest concern.

Apart from that I would have jumped at a draw a week out, but now just lost for words.

Ah well that's life as a Collingwood supporter

Up by a goal with 10 seconds remaining and can't hold on. Just pathetic.

Shit kick from Langdon. Should've kicked it right near the boundary so we could at least have a chance at punching it out of bounds. In saying that who ever didn't fly up to contest that mark was even more pathetic. We contest that mark and we win.

 

[ThexderX]

Where was Treloar when it counted?

Skis in a very downward-sloping direction.

Standing next to Sidey.

 

[half_back_flank]

Langdon had a very good game today, anyone who thinks otherwise is an idiot. Not his fault nobody contested his last kick.

He played well today.

But he wilted under the pressure, didn't back himself to execute a very simple kick 5 - 10 metres inside the boundary where everyone was expecting it.

 

[DinoSoar]

Was a really disappointing finish and to use a well worn cliche, a game of 2 halves. I suppose a draw was a fiiting result - Pies clearly won the 1st half and Crows clearly won the 2nd. Bummer but Pies did well to make a cracker of a game instead of the shellacking everyone thought was on the cards.

Langdon had a very good game today, anyone who thinks otherwise is an idiot. Not his fault nobody contested his last kick.

Great first half putrid second half.

My boy plays under 9's and even he knows to kick to the boundary with 1 minute to go.

Average footballer.

Gutted at that loss......yes it is a loss to me.

 

[BringouttheGimp]

Feels like a loss.... but it was a great effort. The crows are a win clear on top of of the ladder, our captain and best player is out, and we held on for a draw. Of course it was terrible to let that lead slip but we shouldn't be on their level, so I'm still happy with the effort.

Was Edwardo Betts playing?

 

[DT_fanatic]

Bit harsh on player Blair we blew a 50 point lead is that all his fault.

He's done some really silly things and he doesn't learn from it. I hate how he doesnt take the first option every single time. It's his inability to learn that is frustrating. There is no upside and he offers little most games.

 

[ash84]

Delist Langdon

He was one of our best

 

[Axl the great]

the ones that just drew with the top side?

The ones that just gave up a 50 point lead by playing stupid timid football after half time, the forwards stopped working hard to lock it in and the Stupidest thing I have seen was going long from that defensive kick in with 15 bloody seconds on the clock when we should have manufactured short options and milked the clock.
This is a results driven business and that was a game where we threw it away yet again, Buckley has proven time and time again he cannot stop the rot once a team gets a run on and if this has not ended his coaching career with us nothing will.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Yep. Name your price and put your mo key in Escrow.

He'll be coaching us another two years.

Everything else is white noise.

I've accepted it, I support whoever our coach is.

More than anything I support making our list better.

Keep developing the young, building building building

Only on that we can improve.

 

[magpie_marty]

They closed the gap with more than enough time to win by 5 goals. That 25 minute period was atrocious and unforgivable, but given the circumstances you would take that result and on paper we shouldn't have gotten close.

If you listen to every dickhead on this board we should have lost by 10 goals today with how crap we are... yet suddenly a draw means we are a disgrace? A game of footy is 4 quarters, and regardless of what happened in the third, we came out level with the best team in the comp. We're really not that bad.

I think we tanked for draft picks perhaps ?
Seems a theme on here.

 

[Leviathan Pie]

Standing next to Sidey.

Theres another fraud.

If he isn't on the table come end of the year, I'm missing a trick.

 

[Ulahoopski]

Bit harsh on player Blair we blew a 50 point lead is that all his fault.

Apparently yes, at least according to the clueless who judge particular players on their mistake(s) and ignore all their positive contributions. In the real world they're called morons.

 

[Smoky]

We need to give Blair a new contract asap, don't want him being poached by anyone else.

omg...

What else in in fashion? So we can all gain a bit of support on this site.

Blair's pressure was good today. Didn't take a couple of marks cause they weren't kicked directly to him... but not his fault the delivery was sub par.



Seriously what did Blair do wrong today that warrants your post?

 

[CFC2010]

Yep. Name your price and put your mo key in Escrow.

WTF is a mo key?

 

[HenrikLundqvist]

Only caught the second half but **** me did Goldsack look shit.

Fumbly mess that couldn't hold a mark.

 

[DT_fanatic]

He played well today.

But he wilted under the pressure, didn't back himself to execute a very simple kick 5 - 10 metres inside the boundary where everyone was expecting it.

This is the same guy who lifted in a pressure situation against the Eagles. His ability under pressure isnt/shouldnt be under question. So I'm not sure why we're isolating an incident or two when he was pretty good overall.

 

[ThexderX]

Accuracy kills

We had FIVE scoring shots more

Naughty!

We say that nearly every week.

Maybe, just maybe, we're not a very good kicking side?

Given we play "football" it says a lot.

 

[hellfire]

Was Edwardo Betts playing?

Oh shit... he wasn't, I guess everything I said was false and it was actually an abysmal effort. We are an absolute disgrace!!!!

 

[HenrikLundqvist]

We need to give Blair a new contract asap, don't want him being poached by anyone else.

You're not fooling anybody Mrs. Blair. Your son can't play.

 

[MagpieJoel]

**** off Collingwood.
