Post Match: Pies unseat the Blues - All comments

[Piethagoras' Theorem]

A win is a win. I think the most exciting thing about last night was the 2 warm doughnuts I scoffed down during the walk back to the car.

[think better]

Hopefully Daisy get a few weeks for Hitting Aish in the Head

Reckon he'll get one, accidental or not when you choose to hit late 'and' hit high you're in trouble.

The rule is pretty clear that a head clash can be considered rough conduct if it is foreseeable - this is clearly the case if you arrive late and are off the ground I would have thought

I should have also said that it is probably considered a 2 week with 1 week on a guilty plea (depending if they think it is on the high scale). He hit late and Aish clearly couldn't protect himself

Amazing how quiet Nicks is after any win. lol

GREAT night all round really, Truffles Turnbull nearly our on his arse, and we take the Bluescum in a close and dour game. What I saw of the match, it was no great spectacle, just a gutsy win over a hated and despised rival. I reckon the media went a bit over board over Silvagni, I don't recall Moore getting all that family hype when he played his first game ?

WE bank four precious points, and move on, can we slay the Giants, that is the question now.

Unimpressive win.


Best description I can com up with. Hard to get too excited.

There has been progress. Defense is much better. HoldING any team to 6 goals is good. Although Blues were able to swith wings and enter 50 easily on a number occasions.

Stop it - donut envy at a threshold at present...
I suppose they were covered in sugar, and dripping jam down your chin as you walked and ate, huh?

To be honest, I'm just resigned to nothing at all happening this year, on or off field.

[GreekLunatic]

I think people have given up but that was a snore fest

Ordinary game as a whole, despite the win and people are preoccupied with the federal election.

So was Bigfooty. The GameDay thread on the main board was only 7 pages. Not unexpected as we've become and irrelevant club, one of those waiting until it is mathematically impossible to make finals.

People don't care about such clubs and a lot of our supporters have shut up shop too. A couple of token wins against other meaningless teams. We will see some enthusiasm if we can beat GWS.

Agreed, but I suppose, three generations playing for the same team is a bit special. Good luck to the kid. Did't look out of place at all and should have had 2 goals next to his name.

If I had a choice between Moore and Silvagni, I'd take Moore without a moment of thought.

True but I must admit... Silvagni looks like he could develop into a dangerous and capable player... give it time. They have done well, as have we.

I think the players from both teams should get together and refund everyone's money that went last night. That was plain and simple the worst game of footy I've seen in my life (local footy included).

I'll take the win though. But a nil all draw would have been a perfect result for that crap.

[roar]

It's a win, and although carltoon were shit, they did have a real dip. The pressure was on all night so it was a good win. Ugly, but important.
