Finals 2022: Week 02

[Maldonboy38 6,406]

Have a look at Collingwood's kicking skills. I hate saying it, but it is brilliant to watch. 2 x Daicos, Elliot, Pendlebury, Crisp and on it goes. Unpressured or at a flat out sprint, they hit targets. 

And jut as I type that, they make a bundle of errors in a row.

Is there any point not showing the players a countdown clock anymore? They know anyways.

Pies have entered the dreaded zone of indecision .......... 26 points up

They're doomed

Melbourne have a patent on that one.

Speed kills on the G and we don't have enough of it. At the game and the Pies are so quick. Also leaving Elliot deep forward makes the Dockers second guess their defensive structure. We need fresh outside legs and fresh ideas in the box as well.

I have sometimes wondered if a “Pagan’s Paddock” with Kozzie as the  sole forward with the ball kicked deep over his head running in to goal would be worth a try.

Dare I say it but The Pies are not the Dogs they won't let Freo back in.

Hunt to the wing? Between Langdon and Hunt we should be pretty quick and explosive on the outside. Use Bowey as a link as well, Trac is explosive from the middle of the ground and kozzy plus Bedford in HF

The commentators are dead set cheering for the Pies! When Schlutz took that great diving mark it was - oh, I think he might have marked it - in a full tone. 

[DubDee 26,117]

Pies remind me if us in 2018. Young team with nothing to lose.

Sure they’ll get smashed in the prelim but it’s fun to watch

Interestingly, they are ranked #18 for kicking efficiency this year.

Agree with that, except for the getting smashed bit.

Collingwood will be competitive against Sydney next week.

Make no mistake.

If the Swans let them…

[Diamond_Jim 12,628]

They've not kicked a goal since entering the zone of indecision

Danger ahead !!

[Jibroni 5,009]

Why couldnt the Pies kick like this against us.

[BDA 22,888]

Pies might rue these missed chances

[david_neitz_is_my_dad 4,084]

We could have been doing something similar to the lions but we decided to play like garbage

[BDA 22,888]

Freo's disposal and ball movement worse than us

[The heart beats true 18,145]

The commentary openly barracking for Collingwood is why neutral supporters hate Channel 7. Just call the game!

[Kick_It_To_Pickett 3,293]

Collingwood crowd have gone pretty quiet. 

[Gunna’s 2,104]

Can somebody please plant anti inflammatories on these commentators.

[DubDee 26,117]

Collingwoods last 13 scores - 1.12

[layzie 34,011]

Freo's goose is cooked.

[DeeSpencer 26,082]

Great to see push in the back has made it back in to the rule book. Not sure where it was last night 

[SaberFang 7,151]

Utterly embarrassing from Fremantle.

Pies even more inaccurate than us last night but at least they aren't allowing the opposition a [censored] easy chance to get back in the game, unlike our breathless capitulation against Brisbane.

Can only imagine how badly we would've blown this match if we were playing against Fremantle instead of Collingwood.

Dockers are done. So we should know about Dogga by Tuesday?

[At the break of Gawn 4,460]

Abundantly clear how much you need to pressure your opponent in a final. Still gobsmacked by our lack of intensity last night.

Absolutely disgraceful that Pies will have a better season than us when you compare the stars we have.

[DubDee 26,117]

Honestly - thank [censored] we lost last night. We are not right this year. But the positive is I don’t have to see us lose to the Pies or even worse the Cats
