Insane efficient from Pies has kept them in this. Logic says this isn’t sustainable for them, but [censored] their entire winning streak is an anomaly and shouldn’t be sustainable.

Pies some lucky goals

demons should be 5-6 goals in front

They have gotten each arsey goal and 2 gifts from the umps. We just need to keep up the pressure in the 2nd half and we got this.

Those loose ball goals are a concern. 

That said, pressure through the middle is there.

Hibberd getting exposed big time down back. Costing us goals way too easily.

We should be at least 4-5 goals up.

Half time and we're no closer to really knowing anything. We're in for a fight, make no mistake about that. Missed some good chances at the end there while Collingfilth just keep nailing every time they go in 50. I don't know, maybe this is just going to be like the Dogs game, we'll have to prove we can win a shoot out because the Pies will continue to get their looks at goal.

I'm sorry, it was a decent quarter but we really should be 5 goals up. Leave this team in a game at your peril. Season is on the line here.

Holding the ball has two interpretations. They have to revert to the mean with accuracy

So similar to the doggies game.

We just need to tighten things up a little and not given them the easy rebound goal.

They've been lucky with frees i50 and had some arsey goals. No way that continues with their low i50s.

I reckon we'll consolidate in Q3.

We are so much better than them in every aspect of play but they are kicking them out of their %$&es. Petty, Spargo and Hibberd playing as bad as possible. But our defensive transition is being exposed time and time again. But boy our best footy is outstanding. Great game of footy.

We gave them 3 free kicks at goal. We also let them get free into their running game a bit too easily   Tighten up don’t give them free kicks at goal. We will win.   Premiership Quarter  coming up   Go dees

Not sure how this is looking on TV but the Pies are extraordinarily lucky in conversion. We have been very wasteful in front of goal. Should have put this game to bed already. 

Forward pressure is way off tonight and Kozzy, Spargs and ANB do not look involved at all. Pies are playing fast break footy. Surprised that they are still full of zip.

A couple of goals kicked on him where of the opponent the either lever, may or Petty where on before they went to the bench. Our 3 bigs are coming off too much

Defend the corridor and they’re less likely to get one out the back.

We’re winning clearance, contested ball and inside 50s. High scoring game is not in our favour but I’d have taken this lead from the start.

We need to take our chances in front of goal or it will come back to bite us on the arze. 

Collywobbles are disgustingly efficient in front of goal. It makes me want to 🤮

We are killing them, should be 6 or 7 goals up. We have wasted too many inside 50 and they get too many lucky goals. We've got this if we keep playing like this.

I'm going off a bit in the stands tonight and thought maybe I was out ferraling the Collingwood supporters, but then a group of apprentice/teenaged Magpies went past screeching some rubbish and I'm starting to realise I'm not even in the same ball park.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
