True but it evened it up because a free kick for us wasn’t paid a few moments earlier. Just the way the cookie crumbles I guessWhat'sinaname wrote:Just watched the last 2 minutes and the Pendles handball from the Silvagni behind is almost a droppable offense.

And then, yeah, we are very lucky not to give away a high tackle free with a second to go.

Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

Go pies, thrilling win that we 100% deserved. Credit to Lipinski for standing up and slotting important goals when the kids were missing everything.
No, Rocca elbowed Brendan Lade in the face.
They're shit and we beat them. They shouldn't have been in the game after Henry was punched in the head.What'sinaname wrote:Just watched the last 2 minutes and the Pendles handball from the Silvagni behind is almost a droppable offense.

Elliott copped a high infringement late in the last which was ignored. Had that been paid, I think we wouldn't have had the same rush of blood in the last few minutes. He goals, and/or slows the game down.
Umpiring decisions irrelevant to the outcome.
We deserved to win.

Great effort by the boys to hang on. Should of buried them in the second, but missed too many sitters. Finally seeing that Murphy might be a player. Was brilliant in the first half. Josh just keeps getting better.Loving Noble's 1 per canters- had my doubts but he is growing on me. Cox's best game since the elimination against West Coast. Still needs to learn to direct his taps to our players rather than theirs.
Great even performance.
Game was a bonus as l fully expected us to lose both games to Carlton this year. Glad to be wrong. Hopefully I am horribly wrong a second time later this year:)

Fantastic even if I wish we were tanking to go for a flag quicker.
Really happy for Coxy. Not only today but the last 6 weeks or so dominating vfl and now showing he belongs. Fly take a bow. Hope it continues. Mason is very likeable and a real part of our fabric and u can see the boys love him.
Grundy must be concerned.

Todays win and last weeks result is the exact reason why you should never have that “ let’s tank for picks “ mentality. You stand little chance of witnessing a teams true capabilities if you don’t set out to win every game you play. Quite simply, if kids like Begg, MacRae, Poulter and McInnes had played today, then we don’t win. I know which way I prefer to go.rambler wrote:Season's mindset went from let's bottom out and get high draft picks to hang on a second we can take on anyone from now on let's give it a fair crack

Might of been Jason Cloke you were thinking of sherrife. I think it may of been a preliminary against Adelaide?What'sinaname wrote:sherrife wrote:Didn't Anthony Rocca miss a grand final for a spoil that was exactly the same as the one Henry copped.

Nope, Rocca elbowed Lade in 2003 PF. It’s inexcusable, but, considering the result, it wouldn’t have made a difference.simon tonna wrote:Might of been Jason Cloke you were thinking of sherrife.

Cloke swung his arm at Tyson Edwards collecting his head.

Cox Need's 5 or 6 weeks playing at least half in the ruck.Magpietothemax wrote:Yep, Cox was great today.
Definitely retains his spot next week.
Then we will be able to judge his true value.
As you know I have just been the only Nickster wanting to keep Cox.
Rapt that he did well today.
But we need a string of games to see how he performs.
