Whilst we had skill errors, so did the pies. it was a hot footy. it's going to happen. What was annoying was some of the poor decision making. 3 times we played backwards from frees out wide forward of centre, and 3 times we coughed up goals. Chipping it around works against other teams, but not against Collingwood. The wrong decisions were made. If you're going to pass the ball, then the aim should be to give the ball to a guy who is in a better position than you are. That did not always occur tonight.

Gram has been better recently but tonight his kicking returned to some of his old ways.

Overall, our confidence was better, we took more risks and we learnt more about how to attack good sides like Colingwood.

We're building. Let's hope we get improve further and get the opportunity to have another crack at this mob this year.

we had the only inside fifties in the last 10 minutes and scored 5 times after the pies last score........

the forward set ups all year havent't been smooth But are getting the job done.

whilst we ' had the better of the free kick tally there were still ' fast hands' from pies players- infact their #12 was called on one by the commentators...
and their ' body on body' work in close were actions that we were pinged for
for weeks Bj and Kosi have been stuck with ' push in the back' when just putting effort into marking contests from the side- but Nick couldn't buy one of thos on a monopoly board.





and yes I am One Eyed But will say if I think an action if deserving of a free either way.
