AFL Game Day Finals 2022

Re: AFL Game Day Finals 2022

How are the Pies at home tonight better than we were in the first forty minutes of last week?

I get it's not the point you're making but we were as stunning as Freo were bad, or as Collingwood are good tonight.

It won't take much between the ears to bridge the gap between our best and worst, and to deliver more of the former and less of the latter next year. Some personnel changes should really help as well.

Things are never as good or bad as they seem.

I'm not comparing us to this game more to the intensity of what we have seen in the finals so far.

Re: AFL Game Day Finals 2022

Pies have been impressive in fact the finals series so far has seen some very intense football.
We have a bit of work to do to close the gap on the top teams.

I reckon they've dropped off a bit in the last ten minutes before halftime. They weren't as crisp with their ball handling as they were in the first quarter and a half. Maybe the half time siren has blown at exactly the right time for Collingwood and they can regroup but I saw some danger signs in the last part of that quarter.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Freo close the contest up in the second half.

I love his meltdown so much.

It's borderline smearing shit on the walls crazy.

There might be a signature in that........

Fair enough.

With some straighter kicking we should have been in a position to put more pressure on in the second half last week. But agree, when it went up that notch we were left wanting.

Howe on Lobb an interesting match up.

Probably time to rethink the second team in WA.

Without a doubt the worst ever franchise.

How long have we been mentioning that our goal kicking lets us down? If it could be fixed they would have done it by now.

Collingwood really attack the ball and put a lot of pressure on the opposition. Perhaps with a few tweaks we could close the gap a bit.

Re: AFL Game Day Finals 2022

I'm watching this and it seems Lobb is the only Fremantle player who looks like impacting things forward of centre.

I want him playing for us for the next three years, he'll be excellent in a side that has some other dangerous talls.

He's certainly getting to good spots and presenting time and time again.

Logue kicking it over his head doesn't help.

7.12 is a real Bulldogs scoreline, but Collingwood are lucky they're playing Fremantle in Melbourne and not in Perth.

Re: AFL Game Day Finals 2022

Fremantle have been awful forward of centre for decades, have they ever been actually good to watch? One things for sure Jackson wont improve it either.

They were great to watch when Clive Waterhouse played for them. You genuinely didn't know what he'd do next. Close to my favourite non bulldog player ever
