wonder if Fagan will say anything to berry about that dumb 50

the 2 match result influencing  50s were karma for Berry's unpunished eye  gouge on Clarry in last years semi.Suck it up Berry.

This thread reminds me of the Game Day thread - a pervading negativity that makes it hard to read.

I just watched a fantastic game of footy with a big group of friends - desperately hoping the Pies would lose. Alas - they were genuinely too good.

Life is too short to harbour bitterness - we should be enjoying the fact that we have a team genuinely capable of winning a flag over the next 2-3 years. 

I've spent my life focussing on the positives while our team have been awful. I want to keeo doing that while we are good.

I back Goodwin in, our fitness staff, our recruiters and our development coaches, and of course our players. We are three years running top 4, and have a Cup on the shelf. 

Go Dees 

 

I applaud your positivity. But perhaps you should read the room 😂

The other issue is discipline. That can be fixed. Kozzie - don’t give away a free when Joel Smith is about to kick for goal. JVR - don’t stick out the elbow. If we had JVR against Carlton, we would have been better.

Discipline is the right word, thank you. I agree that can be taught and learned over the summer. Let’s hope!!

Gee they don't mess around. Next years flag odd just went up. Pies and Lions joint favs at $6 and we are just behind them at $7. 

Biggest controversy since hot cross buns for sale on Boxing day.

Sadly we will look back at  this year as a missed opportunity for years to come probably until we win our next

haven’t been able to bring myself to switch the game on. 

not sure i will

the cheering of Maynard will make me want to murder someone 

Maynard was booed most of the time 

Do you just make stuff up 

Try growing up instead

Our boys spent A LOT of time practicing goal kicking last summer. Brodie Grundy mentioned it on the Demonland podcast. Sadly, the pressure cauldron of finals football can’t be replicated and we just need to wait 12 months to hope it doesn’t happen again (assuming we’re good enough). 

Set shot kicking wasn’t the issue though. The issue was rushing ‘in play’ shots. We lacked composure.

[At the break of Gawn 3,501]

I despise Collingwood but their defending in their back 50 in the last qtr won them all three finals and the flag. 

Something to be learnt about backing in your defenders as opposed to pressing so high up that you defend well but can’t score on the counter.

Fair enough, just save a prayer for those poor Lions fans.

The room is full of juveniles  why not point it out. 

Great game of AFL

Could someone please explain the 6-6-6 warning Collingwood received

I was at the game pal  and you're wrong.

Of course Pies cheered their own buywhat was striking was the boos

[Pipefitter 2,016]

That’s our fault for woeful kicking a few weeks ago 

[dees189227 10,776]

I swear to god if we are drawn to play Collingwood R1 & they unfurl there flag against us I'll absolutely be furious and spew up.

Uhm… Dub made the cheering Maynard comment BEFORE the game even started. He didn’t know Maynard was gonna be booed.

Why are you telling Dub to grow up and accusing him of making stuff up? You know, there’s other much more pleasant ways of getting attention. You don’t have to be belligerent.

I thought they were awesome to be honest.

Paul Stanley mimed all the vocals. His mic was left on so that his comical-rock-interjections between lines came through, helping create the illusion of a live vocal performance. 

Music was all backing track. 
 

So the AFL spent $2m on four dudes to turn up, put on some make-up and slightly-wiggle about for a few minutes  

It’s a [censored] joke, and not one with a terribly-good punchline.

I agree with that, but that doesn’t explain the set shot misses. Like Fritter’s out on the full and Maxy missing from 25 out. I know they can’t all go in, but it was not all rushed in play shots.

Are you serious? You’re telling folks to grow up left right and centre. I think someone does need to grow up, but it isn’t the people to whom you’re replying. 😉
