pies composure in these situations is outstanding as much as it pains me to say it.

crows had the ball in there 50 and were not smart. thats the difference

Nah the other teams are [censored] honestly, every time they have the chance to score again and waste every I50. Nothing to praise here, just lucky the opposition is [censored] in execution.

    What the hell was that last free kick for? Rankine didn't run to far. My god what a stupid call.

    Crows cannot beat Collingwood in the close ones

    I seriously can’t understand how a side like the Crows just dominating that last quarter but still found a way to lose or Collingwood found a way to win.

    You don’t take a [censored] bow when you’re the reigning premiers and have just narrowly beaten a team who’s 12th on the [censored] ladder.

    Why do the umpires call such line ball calls in such crucial moments. Really feels like they are trying the manipulate results in key moments. 
     

    One positive is the blue floppers are out of the 8. Sucked in

    they've won 10 of the last 11 games decided by a goal or less. thats more than luck.

    Full of shiit this team. All the bounces land in their arms at crucial times. Adelaide blew that 

    Exactly, the rub of the bounce they get. They also kick and hand ball in panic, but the opposition just wanted their opportunities. There was one kick smothered inside their 50, if the crows player was smart you fake the kick to make the defender miss and give yourself time and space.

    I sat watching the last 2 minutes with my hatred of the filth reaching sky like proportions. They are the luckiest bastards on th face of the earth. Crows did blow it though.

    I am surprised at this point they don't have a special post game show with Daicos dad Jumpin like a lunatic in their corporate box 🤢

    Or the other kick that was smothered, no composure whatsoever just kick without thinking.

    So many clubs I just wish would let go of the raft and sink into oblivion.

    Did I use up all my credits cursing West Coast and Hawthorn?

    Divine favour well spent to be sure, but still, what animal do I need to sacrifice to make Collingwood falter and finish outside the 8 on percentage?

    Realistically they could lose their last 4 games (Blues, Swans, Lions and finally to us) and in the process give up their spot to a late-surging Lions who also have a draw.

    he also took a mark on the wing about a minute before that and gave the quick handball rather than using up time to take his kick. no smarts at all.

    Yep Keays is a reasonably good player on his day but diabolical around the sticks

    Looking more and more like a Swans / Filth GF at this rate

    That was the game, he just had to fake the kick and would have had time and space to kick to a teammate or even a better kick at goal.

    You just know that the desperation of the Filth defender would play against him if you fake the kick.

    At the end of the day Collingwood banked enough score earlier in the game to be in a position to win a close one.

    The complete opposite to us last week and for most of the season so far.

    Pies have a green light from the umps late in games. No HTB even when they tackle their own team mates to keep the ball in. Fraudulent officiating.

    That Keayes kick which led to the smother was crazy bad. No composure

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
