How bad are the lions. :shock:
I think we have been bloody good around the contest. But, we've also turned it over a fair bit. You've got to be happy with the endeavour of most of the blokes tonight though.

Come on Pies, put them to the sword. :twisted:

Indeed, but it's not, so your point is irrelevant.

Anyway, apparently he's been playing well overall. So... you're wrong. Business as usual. ;)
Its not????

Maxwell has had one great year (AA) and one pass mark during his career )2012), every other season he's been an embarrassment.

It's actually a good thing Cloke is out. They have to work their butts off. Seriously Lynch is a dud. I rated him early on in the year but he has no idea these days. He can barely kick 40 metres and this is a guy who used to kick the ball 50 - 60 metres on a regular basis.

We are working harder and one on one football.

**** some people are never happy.

If we go on and post a big win people will still bitch that it could've been bigger if we Witts had've come in for Clokey (yeah sure).

I'll take any win after the week we've had.

^Yeah Joel, there has been some good pressure.

Overall I'm not as happy as I could be, maybe it's just the scoreboard.
A couple of cute plays, and there has been some downhill skiing. I'm just tough to please. :wink:
Go Pies!

Small things amuse small minded people.

Having Clarke came in for Cloke was a %$^ up of Biblical proportions, irrelevant of the result.

Been dominating most of the game. Clarke will get owned by McGrath if Bucks doesn't move him. Send the skipper back & make him play some defence on McGrath. Josh Thomas & Kyle Martin have been good & Jolly is dominating. Like the look of Kennedy but boy he needs to work on his kicking.

One more thing. How many times have our guys been ran down from behind tonight? Either our awareness is horrible or we aren't talking to each other.
Time to put the domination on the scoreboard guys.

Yep, we are 8 goals up at half time yet people are still sooking.

Great first half from the likes of Seedsman, Elliott, kennedy, Martin, and Josh Thomas, this is about as good as it gets for youngsters, they are going really well.

We need to win this by 70 + now though.

We're playing well. It would be nice to have a few more on the board, but overall you can't fault the Pies performance despite the amount of injuries the Lions have.

Provided we have no injuries and we go on with this game, then I'll be happy. I've been very impressed with our youngsters such as Martin, Seedsman, Kennedy and Elliott. Plenty of good signs for the future.

4 goals in the second quarter including one arsey one from Swan while dominating all over the ground is not a good return in anyone's language.

I might be very edgy due to my bet but if you can't admit not taking a kp emergency to the GABBA is an amateur our you have your head firmly planted you know where.

Loving Seedy and Caffs games.

Blair needs to do more as a midfielder.

Maxy needs to try and keep his kicks under 50m (high)...

Looking forward to seeing Didak come on - we've missed his delivery.

Happy to be up, could be a lot further. Hate to have a sook when we are up, but any chance during a training run like this to use the corridor at a kick in? We still go so wide, even when totally dominating.
