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.

[dees189227 12,432]

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

Adelaide blew that

after all their hard work in the last quarter just no composure or game management once they went ahead.

[ANG13 2,067]

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. 

[Dee Zephyr 19,269]

At least the Blues are 9th

[Mel Bourne 4,534]

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.

De Gooey for the post game interview.

That is an instant emetic right there.

[GCDee 3,199]

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.

[dl4e 5,851]

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.

[dees189227 12,432]

Ugh, horrible outcome, pies back in the 8, bummers will win & move up to 2nd. Yuck.

Anyway looking forward to watching gws v dogs. Well done to Jesse playing 150 games

[Little Goffy 14,664]

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

[At Least I Saw a Flag 5,304]

Better for Demons if the dishlickers win.

Just turned on ... crowd numbers very poor.

[Demon Dynasty 17,109]

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.

[Call Me What You Will 751]

And of course Chad Warner gets a fine only. 

[Bring-Back-Powell 15,039]

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
