POSTGAME: QF vs Collingwood

[dees189227 12,388]

Fritsch when he got that 50, smith got loose in our 50 calling for it but fritta chose to take a shot and of course missed.

Where is KC from Casey have we barred the Maynard's from setting foot in the Clubhouse?

Any names on honour boards and the like, if his old man is on the committee there is no way he survives this.

His son has torched their roots.

Wow, could never have guessed it would be wasted inside 50's and forward efficiency that would be our undoing, who could have seen that coming.

Gotta say a lot of the guys looked like the pressure got to them. The game was there for the taking

So why do you want Cox to do his ACL?

Maybe Jaded noticed Cox tried to break Tracs legs.

[Red But Mostly Blue 4,547]

We need a Curnow type gun who might be able to mark one or two of those dumb bombs into the 50, since we are intent on dumping the ball forward without bothering to look. 

Hopefully we think about this when we go shopping for players this year.

Trying my best to hate him but there was nothing in it. He will be free to play.

You have got to be kidding me?!?! MRO have been about three things all season- the outcome ie what happen to the player he hit and whether he hit the head. Also how could he avoided the situation- he was front on and  decided to turn side on and collect Gus with his shoulder. Should get 4 weeks.

Geez if Collingwood win the flag something is wrong with the AFL, bog ordinary team. They were just lucky we brought out seasons worst tonight

Another way of looking at is that Collingwood withstood massive territory dominance by the MFC by bringing  elite pressure for most of the game and winning countless defensive 50 intercepts.

I can’t see their prelim opponent dominating territory like we did, and accordingly they will account for their prelim opponent quite easily.

Because he lined Gawn up from literally the first bounce. He kneed him at every chance. He also kneed Trac. 
He is another hack thug who plays with one purpose and one purpose only, to injure his opponent.

Our game is so much better than these truly awful footballers who run around like some pseudo thug heroes. 
I note Maynard didn’t line up Viney. Because he’s a coward. Likewise Cox. Go for players when they’re open and vulnerable. 
Gawn again proved that Cox is nothing but a hack. He destroyed him. 

[TheWiz 766]

This one will take a while to digest. I’m incredibly disappointed by our forward structure in the first half. Things looked better later, but you can’t give them such a head start. This is comes down to coaching and is bordering on hubris.

And how come the yank [censored] gets a few hit at Max every first centre bounce. Hate him more than any other player

We kept them to 2 behinds in that final term. We had chances. Friita, sparrow and Pickett all kicking it out on the full. 

Max botching his pass and his shot for goal earlier, Langdon selfishly taking the advantage when he didn't have to in the 3rd quarter. Pickett missing some easy ones.

Trac went missing. Oliver's kicks went nowhere & van Rooyen realised finals is a whole new level 

Think it was Fritta, Riv and Kozzie with out on the fulls in the last - Sparrow had the HTB in the pocket.

Unbelievable.

There's no way he will get suspended for that, will be a joke if he does.

[dees189227 12,388]

Did Bailey Laurie do anything in that final quarter?

[Deesprate 1,324]

The love for Maynard on this site make me puke. He jumped off the ground. Brayshaw had no serious forward momentum and was wide open. Maynard could easily have used his hands to block but turned his shoulder and smashed him in the head. It was at worst intentional at best careless. He then get a chance to plead his case. In the meantime we lose a key player possibly costing us the game. Spare me the bs it a footy incident.

Yeah I don’t like either of them as players but I don’t wish them to do career threatening injuries…I guess we are all different though. 
Agree that Gawn dominated Cox. He played a great game.

Same. I feel flat. I'd rather lose my 8 goals then get that close.

I hope they look at that terrible first half and how we just kept bombing it in

We kept them to 60 points, a beatable score.

Not on the backline, we needed to get more scores from all those I50's.

Help if we actually kicked straight!

Did nothing the whole game except fumble. Needs to come out for Spargo next week. Hopefully the kid makes it, but not ready currently. 

[In Harmes Way 7,767]

Really flat after that one. We won’t win many/any games with a first half like that. Great attitude to not drop the head in the second half. Got a mountain to climb now, but if anyone can do it, we can.

He made the decision to turn and hit Gus with his shoulder. We are protecting the head and very serious injury no?!

This. He had no reason to leave the ground. None.

The expected score is going to be ugly.

 

But if we take the British view of the game, we won the moral victory! See you in the moral Prelim, ya losers
