It's nice to win again!

Nothing wrong with the spirit by the look of things.

If we can sneak into the eight and win one final I'll be a happy man. That would be a pass mark for the year and place us well for next season.

Week by week Adams makes me feel less disappointed about the Heater trade.

Thought the decision to sub out Reid was the wrong call, but I guess it would off been too much to ruck Witts the entire last quarter.

Bloody good win though; I enjoyed that immensely

That and Reid wouldn't be 100% fit yet, better to not push him to much ATM.

Im a big fan of martin
and bucks need to give him a whole game
but he gets pushed off the ball too often
needs to bulk up

Despite Mr Smythe's irresolute reading of the Sidebottom's performance today, Sidey still wants to give him one ... assume the position eddiesmith and await his pleasure ...

OMG That feels good
No place to be
But the mighty MCG!
Gutsy win to farewell our gutsy premiership captain

The future looks bright, some nice talent coming through

Some posters here should hang their heads in shame

But you know what? **** em! I'm just gong to enjoy this

Heading home to sink some nice warm.......PORT!

Go Pies!

Grinding win, still have concerns about our short kicking out of the back lines during a slow passage of play some of those turnovers could have been worse. Not convinced we can turn into a precision kicking team like to see take a page out of micks book kick down the boundary force a stoppage or ball up

Martin with duck eggs.

Many positives... Intensity was good - always a chance of we apply pressure!

Beams, H, Sidey, Pendles, Cloke, Dwyer good games for the oldies
Adams, Keefe, Frost, Armstrong, Marley, Broomhead and Langdon good for young guns

Faz, Elliot an Blair good game for midgets

On the negative side - White was quiet again - Martin came on in the last qtr and did nothing. Just could not get in the game - not a natural sub. Reid was poor but hopefully better for another run. Witts was average - good in the ruck but struggled around the ground.

Oh yeah another positive...no injuries

Well done Pies still in the hunt and that was a big game for both clubs - tough task next week but at least we have the right attitude and can now build some momentum.

Yeah, only saw him near the ball once during the early part of the 4th quarter; tough gig to start as the sub, but he should have got a touch

Ugly but a win nonetheless and that's all that matters for now.

Now for West Coast an even tougher task over in the west.

Great win!It feels so good to have a win again,it's been too long!

Cloke and Beams were outstanding,Sidebottom very good,Broomhead needs to be signed up soon because the kid can play,and even the maligned Armstrong did well,i thought.

Couldn't watch the game. Happy with the win. Will comment further when I watch the replay tomorrow

Broomhead is going to be a star, I now see why Armstrong was recruited if they can keep playing him as a loose man he could be very damaging. We don't have to many that actually hit targets.

Frost and Keefe were fantastic, think Keefe is very harshly judged. Beams is a gun, Sidy another harshly judged was very good. Blair's attack and disposal by hand was very good.

Taylor was also very good, I might eat humble pie there. Still turns it over but much better, his hands were excellent.

Fasolo and Dywer important ins for run and carry. Thought they were pretty good too, Goldy also very good.

Negatives we turn it over to much and sides still find to much space on their own. Hate our game plan when kicking out from the back-line.

Was up forward and the ball was not in that area often in the quarter he was on. I think this week was a holding pattern for Marto. Hope he gets another and better chance next week or against the Brions or Giants.
