Review Pies win a thriller (Blues 87-106 Pies)

[PonsfordMagpie]

Great finish to a nervy contest.

GO WOODSMEN!

 

[ColinMochrie]

Never in doubt!

 

[FireKrakouer]

*@^¥€^$ YIHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[Wooljay]

Giving them hope just to snatch it away.

400 IQ play by Bucks.

 

[Nicco_jj]

Let's never say we're going to win by 70 ever again

 

[absy]

Everything went to plan. Carlton are terrible.

 

[BringouttheGimp]

Well done lads!

And well done to Phillips.. he didn't stop after ****ing up twice.. kept wanting it.. and pounded the sealer!

 

[stevo86]

lol Carlton just blaming umpiring what were they watching? Blaming umps is loser mentality. So much not called in our F50..Next.

We just didn’t really care about that game until the last quarter and can’t blame the boys either.

On to next week.

 

[Moore of the Same]

Did we dodge a bullet or what?

We started like a lazy, overconfident, lethargic football side. An incredible number of passengers and inconsistent performers. I don't know how we won. I don't think we were truly the better side today and the Blues should feel a little robbed. That being said you take the 4 points.

 

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Pretty much what I expected in the end - hopefully it's just the "Carlton Effect" bringing us down to their level

Horrible to watch but good on the boys for playing out the four quarters - that's about the best I can come up with.

Carlton will never ever ever improve when they play an entirely different game style every single week. They didn’t play to win, they just wanted to not get smashed. They’ll lose by 10 goals again next week. They did the same last year against us.

 

[HFF]

Take a bow:

Brodie Grundy
Steele Sidebottom
Scott Pendlebury
Small last qtr cameo Adam Treloar

This game was won on these guys because everyone else was poor.

However a step forward again for Callum Brown who did some very clever things in big moments.

Like i said in the gameday thread i can only take one positive from this mess. 10 points down with six minutes to go, and the team had enough self belief to sill win the game. Five goals in the last six minutes, when i am sure most of us thought the game was lost was a great effort.
Just a shame the other 75 minutes of gametime was trash.

Taking the four points and moving on.

Hard to give a shit with how bad they are. Nothing game for us. Even if we lost wouldn’t have changed the year chances. That was their granny

 

[Finnishpie]

Won ugly. Enough said. Move on.

But:

Reid looks like he's fluffed his chance. Losing some quality and replacing it by journeymen does have an effect. Wills and Greenwood join Reid in the "under threat" camp.

 

[Aussie pie]

Take the 4 points and look at next week, Cox and beams back I’d also bring in Wells.

 

[Kappa]

WHE with 1 handball to halftime. Bizarre.

 

[adammania9]

Any opposition supporter who thinks De Goey is overrated is a massive nuffie. What a game breaker!

 

[barrackers]

Cripps’ early crow on what ultimately turned out to be the blues last score gave me hope we could win.

We finished the game superbly, the rest was largely a grind.

Errm . . no . . simply don't know where to start with that.

Thanks for coming.

 

[Seedsman_]

The boys persevered and scored five goals in the last six minutes. I love the grit of this team. If we sought out our conversion and forward 50 entries we will romp in the flag.

 

[Dynamics]

Here's a shocker... The Carlton board is Bombers consoling Blues over umpiring.

Enough salt in there to open a mine.

Suffer in your jocks, tools.

 

[unplugged]

Take it and run. On the plus still Beams and Adams missing from that side.

 

[danielnajdek]

Let's never say we're going to win by 70 ever again

Never thought we would. Knew they'd play their one good game for the year against us. Do it every year.

 

[golazo]

I'll take it.

A valuable 4 points, but what's better is knowing Carlton fans will be burning for the whole season after losing this one. Their grand final
