Game Day Collingwood v GWS Giants - Preliminary Finals — Sat 21 Sep, 4:35PM AEST, MCG

[Black Saab]

Imagine if the umps called the stuff Collingwood is getting too the Giants. The Pies would be nearly out of the game.

 

[Fat Nyfe]

Set up for an epic second half. Hope the rain starts pelting down.

 

[Eagleboy68]

Again. Gws held no free

**** the VFL ****s the game up

 

[Cool Kangas]

Is Sidebottom injured?

 

[WCfan22]

Give him a shot at the half. gws need Davis in the backline

 

[blaisee]

Whoever wins this today is gunna get pumped next week

 

[Barnzy]

One of the most lacklustre prelims of recent times so far.

 

[Fabab]

Hopper gets jumper pulled play on ffs,so biased these umpires.

 

[Rod Stroker]

Pies lucky to be in front. Giants have dominated, Pies had the better of the umps.

 

[Foreign Legion]

Replay of the dangerous tackle please?

You will see that in a redacted form.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

The Giants' forward entries have been woeful.

Too many blind kicks.

 

[THE_GUN]

Free kicks
15 - 8

Umps will have to even this up

 

[Joffaboy]

If its dry next week Richmond by 7 goals

 

[rumply]

either side will have tired legs next week, Tigers flag to lose, no pressure

 

[Sterge]

I understand that man, go deeper. Reviewing every goal seems a bit much and gross to me. I prefer human error. We don't have to go full digital.

Think most people would prefer they are correct.

Reviews for most goals would take all of 3 seconds to confirm the goal

Nah turn it up. If an incorrect decision has been made by the umpire, it should be over turned every day of the week. Take the black and white glasses off

 

[Tiger71]

Gws should be in front. A few pie fFavored decisions have been the difference

 

[Chaisa]

Tough stuff from both sides. Weather and De Goey/Greene missing helps the defence.

Thinking if the weather remains dicey the Pies look more likely, but if it dries up I like the Giants chances. Should be interesting to watch.

 

[Ry009]

Richmond to break the 119pt record next week?

Favorites next week for sure but they just got it done against a front running opponent that missed an AA forward who hadn't won two games in a row for months.

 

[ep2018]

Congrats Richmond, 2019 premiers.

 

[Hank Scorpion]

20-17 at HT in a prelim

Glad we made those rule changes

 

[queensberryrules]

Giants doing very well. A couple of decisions went against them.

Pies look good on the break and spread though the weather hurts the strategy a bit.

Giants lack forward effectiveness, damn they miss Toby in this type of game.

50/50 game. I reckon the coaches will determine the victor.

so you'd be happy with losing a grand final on a human error when it could have easily been fixed?

Hrmm. That's a tough one.

I wouldn't be happy with that at all, that would suck and I'd probably be furious... BUT, if that meant that we don't digitally review every goal and we go back to just umpires and goal umpires giving it their best effort... then yeah I'd take the risk.

I don't like the reviews. Even if it gave us the win. Rubs me the wrong way. Just one campaigner's opinion here.

 

[Tap Tap Tapperoo]

Despite popular opinion on this thread, I’m really enjoying it. High tension, lots riding on every contest, haven’t been able to take my eyes off it tbh.

The Giants' forward entries have been woeful.

Ironically, woeful forward entries from the Lions is the only reason they made the PF.
