Fly's presser
Another close win.
Regardless of the margins, 10 consecutive wins must be special?
You're a first year coach, has finals happened faster than you thought?
Taylor Adams and Jeremy Howe sustained injuries. How are they?
Brodie Grundy returned through the VFL today. Where does he sit in terms of his availability next week?
Are you definitely not going to play Cox, Cameron and Grundy in the same team?
Jack Ginnivan spoke post match about the toll on his mental health in the last few weeks. Are you wrapping your arms around him?
Ginnivan kicked 3 goals today, what did you make of him on the field?
Is Ginnivan being treated fairly by the umpires?
We do see Ginnivan "getting on with it", but it's obviously taking its toll behind the scenes for him.
You can tick off making finals. How do you set up for the next three weeks?
You're keeping it at one week at a time, but the run of Melbourne, Sydney and Carlton must be a good build up to finals?

I’m starting to dream…that Carlton won’t win the flag. I’ve been worried sick about it.
With that sorted, I can turn my attention to the Pies.

To be fair, most here probably agreed with them.
It's been universally described as the worst free kick of the season, no chance.
This is the reason why people are so critical of umpires. Stay the **** out of the game and do your job when required.
A couple of pre seasons in the gym will do wonders for Ginni.
He's still a relatively skinny kid right now getting by on a strong Footy IQ.
This whole umpiring vendetta will only make him a better player in the long run.
Gotta love him, cracks in when needed and just knows how to find the big sticks. He's a crucial part of us going deep in September.
Who has he actually antagonised?
Because he coloured his hair blonde and plays for the biggest club in the land?
It's been a media beat up in regards to Ginni taking the piss out of the high tackle rule. That's where it grew legs, nothing to do with the kid himself. campaigners like Montagna and the like took issue with it and it became far bigger than it needed to be.
Great to see the young fella getting back to what he does best yesterday. I was in the camp of give him a complete rest for a week. However, terrific coaching to back him and get him to perform.

Reading between the lines it seems McRae also thinks we would have won by more if not for the decisions (paid/not paid) that went against us. Well spoken and very subtle.Fly's presser

Watching the first quarter as it happened I said "the umpires have been instructed to make sure Collingwood loses" in disbelief at what I was seeing.
The holding the man frees not paid were so blatant that deliberate decisions seemed involved. Was it Buckley, who acted as umpires apologist throughout the commentary, who said the Johnson one was a professional free kick that was then not awarded.
Ginnivan got three good goals. I don't like his attitude, and all this "celebration" tripe that the commentariat delight in, but I like his play and deplore the AFL vendetta against him.
Lipinski had a great game, as did Josh Daicos. Cox and Cameron were very effective. Maynard remains a key to the back line, and the calls to move him to midfield have to be ignored. Moore was outstanding. After a jittery start, Bianco contributed well. Jamie Elliott may have lost the soaring leap, but he has gained a hardness at the ball and 5 - 10 m in his kick that are probably more valuable to the team.
Johnson and Carmichael have growing value.
Despite the closeness of the final scores, I didn't feel the stress I have over the last month as the game wound down. I don't know what that means.

It means you are getting use to it and quite enjoy it.

Clown Kornes just gave his pet Connor Rozee top votes on the footy show.
Seriously?
Went to the game, Rozee although good was no way a standout
De Goey at least as influential
Even Butters for them more damaging
This goose reckons N Daicos gets cheap possessions….

That's fair, I was a bit tongue in cheek. They've shown up the last month or so.
If you were a port fan, though, you'd be wondering where that sort of commitment was when the season was still alive. Instead they played weak footy, let
Hawthorn, Carlton and Adelaide dominate them for large patches, and started the season 0-5.
Much like Essendon, it's easy to come out swinging when your season is already dead. It's another thing to play brave enough to keep it alive in the first place.

While Rozee isn’t a player I recognise I always take note of a jumper number where an unknown opposition player is dominating. After Corne’s vote I looked up Rozee’s jumper number and #20 didn’t stand out to me at the ground.
My takeaways:
- we were a lot better than them, never mind the score
- ash johnson makes us a lot better. seeing him and mihocek get a good understanding of each other is an exciting proposition
- Cox is very handy against undersize ruckmen because if we arent going well in clearances he can whack it out of the drop zone
- lippas best game i thought because he did a few things with a higher level of composure and class than. I think hes got plenty of growth in him still
- WHEs goals were very good. easy to overlook
- we left a bunch of goals on the table from fumbles. I think that wont always happen
- murphy is very strong and it makes up for his being a tad undersized.
- j daicos is a joy to watch.
- sideys run back into the backline was very handy
- we still lack a certain killer instinct to put our foot on the throat when we are up. we will need to build this to get to the next level. not sure where it will come from. i think probably getting better around stoppage.
