Alex never performs in pressure situations. Rushed snaps, broken tackles and spineless finessing are his M/O and yes VFL is his capacity!
I love the Pies, hate Carlscum

IS there any remote chance, any at all, that a real headnut like Greenwood will be picked next week, someone with balls and guts in the centre, too help out swannie, who did play his guts out tonight.

Yes this is million dollar question!!!
We weren't defending a lead we were chasing a win.
Can someone please give me an explanation.
Piss poor coaching.
Dare to win not worry about losing.
we don't eat our own at collingwood we just allow them to foul our nest.

Not good enough.
We'll end up just out of the 8, where most of us predicted we would be at the beginning of the season...

I thought Maynard played ok. Enough to keep his spot.

I'd be looking at some of the forwards getting the axe.
Poor performances for a few weeks now.

**** me, the Oh everything is great brigade are pathetic!

Oh it was another close game, oh they never give up, we lost by less than the last 2 games...

Do you morons realise we just lost to the team in 13th damn place? Not the top 2 sides we have just lost to the last 2 weeks, all that effort wasted if you can beat a damn bottom side, they are in the 6 worst sides in the comp and we just lost to them!

I suppose you will be all happy and talking us up when we go down to Carlton by 1 point? Because on tonight's effort, we won't beat Carlton...

Oh and while everyone on here blames the forwards, we lost the Inside 50 count...But hey lets blame the forwards for not kicking more goals from less chances than the opposition... :roll:

made a few howlers late in the game. Kicked the ball straight back to Port players. Needs to think his way through things out there (something DeGoey does beautifully by the way).

Maynard will stay, he was ok. Fasolo needs to go, he was awful. Kennedy comes in for Fas. Reid?

Forward line stinks.
Long bombs to F50 are deplorable.
No composure from 3/4 of the team.
Panic kicks even with time, space and the clock well in our favour.
Let them play with a plus-1 inside our F50 when we needed a goal late.
No class or composure inside 50...any other team would've snagged 3-4 goals in the final 8 minutes.
This team will never make the jump into genuine top 4 quality unless they weed out some panic players and invest in class, otherwise, we'll be a blue collar guts it out team, and these tesms NEVER win the flag.
So disappointing. 3 weeks in a crow proves our lack of class and composure will hold us back. We should be 11-3. No doubt about it.

He looks real ordinary to me, at least so far. Scharenberg was better than him in the VFL and he looks much more AFL ready. No idea how he isn't in the team already.

Think Broomhead being subbed probably didn't help. Am sure that Moore would most likely have been subbed off had it not been for the injury.
