Was it Cameron that slipped over?

No, that was Carlton

McCreery’s pressure huge. They were shitting themselves, and we looked much more threatening defending.

Underrated.

 

[Aussie pie]

You can see how with a few players back that injuries makes a huge difference. There might be a “system” and someone comes in but if that player is not up to it it just doesn’t work.

Cox, McStay and McCreery make a huge difference to our forward line. As much as there’s many Cox haters on here he does a specific job and he does it well. Beau is a beast and really scares defenders. Schultz, hmm. Honestly he just doesn’t fit in our system up forward, he just doesn’t look like he knows or even likes the way we play. We can’t take back the trade but maybe we can on trade him for a handful of magic beans.

Go Pies

Hoping Karma catches up with the aggro Blues supporter who attacked our taxi drivers car a few minutes before we hopped in. He showed us the vision on a massive flog in Carlton leisurewear get out of his car, smash the drivers side window and threaten the cabbie before trying to take on some dudes in a wagon (before he realized they could take care of themselves). Anyway footage being sent to police with license plates. Happy fine day ya useless dickhead.

Didn’t care how we won. We did enough and just let them **** it up themselves. Perfection.

Ripper Dipper. Imagine if that Q1 snap didn’t hit the post would’ve been epic!

 

[Piewithsauce13]

Anyone checked on Muzza?

 

[mumblingpie]

McStay really need to lift his body language, sick of him complaining and throwing his hands up when things don’t go his way, he even clashed with DeGoey a couple times in the fwd line

 

[eddiesmith]

I hate to say it, but that was nearly as good as the Grand Final!!!

To **** Carlton’s season up when we’re terribly out of form and to do so in another edition of the one sided Free Kick Carlton was brilliant!!!

Go the ****ing Pies!!!

The outcome was fantastic but McGovern I think might have been concussed. He copped a knock after the mark.

But we really should not let it have get that close.

Kudos to Moore - thought he was fantastic tonight. They seem to be back intercepting and judging the distance and flight much better. I also thought Howe is brilliant. He has to play on.

Forward line was disappointing - Cox had a massive advantage when on Kemp. But the amount of blocking is interesting to watch. It's a game within a game. McStay was well held.

But winning sure beats losing.

Glad you’re not being a negative cat.

People are allowed to have different emotions and takeaways after a game than you do mate, it's OK.

Weitering was excellent. I think he was on McStay.

looked like a shallow throw in and Pittonet reacted better

Take the Win

Life is short

Yep. The comeback just added to it. The only way to have made that better would have been Owies missing the goal after the siren.

Loving the melts on the Blues Fan cams - it’s almost as good as tonites win !

Owies is a total ar$e hat

I could not love him unconditionally if he was my child

I think McGovern was concussed after getting a knee to the head, should have played it up and given it to a better kick for goal. Mind you that would’ve sent this board into meltdown, still it would be a smart play.
I remember big James Manson faking a back injury at VFL park and I think Ron McKewon took the kick and goaled. Charlie had a miracle recovery about 10 secs later it was pure gold.

 

[brysie]

Saw bugger all of the game, other than the final 3 mins walking back from Clifton Hill to Richmond. Bought a 6 pack of Mornington Browns on Bridge when we were 20 up with 6 mins to play, which almost jinxed us.

Flicked Kayo on with 3 to go while still walking home. All’s well that ends well and am now currently crushing beers listening to Ulcerate, who I saw at the Espy on Thursday night. All that’s needed now is a GWS and Freo win tomorrow and it’s a close to perfect weekend.

Up you mighty Pies - nothing’s easy with this lot, which maybe gives us all fleeting hope.

 

[barrackers]

What was Elliot doing 51 sec to go on the boundary line

A couple of loose blues by themselves ahead. His only other choice was to kick towards the line, which would have been penalised in an instant

Gws and Freo wins? They're about the only teams a chance to fall out of the 8.

Anytime Carlton, Richmond, Essendon, Melbourne and Hawthorn all lose in the same round should be celebrated.

With 3 games to play I can live with us having to do it the hard way.
