Who is the pies fitness coach? These guys just run all day. It really is the difference last year and seems so this year.

I don't reckon we have the individual talent to take these teams on. Happy to be wrong but I can't see us outscoring them, nor shutting them down enough

We’ve got supreme individual talent but it’s concentrated in the middle, pies basically have a whole 22 that are all really good kicks and not afraid to take the game on. Honestly reminds me of peak hawthorn how they pick teams apart.

 

[netslave]

Great game of footy, good win by the Pies, bring on the Doggies tomorrow.

 

[Topkent]

Good news is if we embarrass ourselves tomorrow the medias gonna be too busy wanking over the pies to realize it.

Our midfield isn't that much better than the other top sides. But the flanks of other sides destroys ours. Very weak area for us unless people step up out of no where.

Jebus BT getting more cringe every season . AFL fixture 4 clubs with huge memberships and he starts wanking over attendances.

Ok bold call cause you know, live or die by the sword - unless teams find a way to negate the Pies, they are going to win the flag this year.

 

[Topkent]

What are we thinking for tomorrow night? Our crowds were pretty rubbish last year

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

lol Richmond and Collingwood are both $8 to win the flag. I know which one id be backing.

You just wait until we're faced with half a glass of water.

That's one way of putting it.

It will be worse after we've been exposed for height in defense tomorrow night on here.

Collingwood are a difficult team to play against, when they are behind they just keep coming and when they gain the lead they defend well. Geelong just didn't look like scoring in the last quarter. You basically need to out Collingwood to beat them or have a big enough lead and hold on like Sydney in the preliminary final.

 

[stEdy]

Reckon some teams will be able to bully the Cats around the ball this year. Will miss Selwood's leadership and Dangerfield ain't a captain's arseh*le. Player like Atkins will probably revert back to being just a player and not sure their kids are ready to step up.

Never seen a team that can sustain that level of breakneck footy for four quarters. There's usually a drop off late. Carlton last year for example.

Not sure Carlton and Collingwood played similar at all. Pies get you on the outside, blues were a b grade version of us smashing you on the inside.

I keep thinking the same thing but they just seem to do it week after week.

 

[Tulip]

Lol when Collingwood finish near the bottom they hire a coach who gets them playing the most exciting footy in the AFL, when we go to the bottom we hire a coach who nearly kills the club

Paul Roos? But yeah Fly is awesome tbf. Not sure why you’re so down on us though, we’re going deep this year.

Also worth noting it’s Round 1 and this is typically both the highest scoring round as well as first real contact with new game plans. Plus perfect conditions.
Let’s see if they are still pulling it off once winter starts to set in.
