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.

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.

These [censored] commentators:

”Collingwood football club, take a bow”

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

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

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

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
