our disposal was poor a better side would have choped us up more.I reckon thompson made a mistake in not playing hunter as we had half our backline out.Good to see mm has no favourites and treats everyone equal as we had bucks and woewodin on the bench.Geelong lacked a quality foward were we had plenty of options.

Umpiring was shocking i thought the move of b sheehan geting injured was the highlight of the night but the umpiring got worse.The umpires have got to see through this staging for frees crap if you are not sure call play on.

Lokans couple of efforts was not good but did get better next 4 weeks will tell us were we are at as the past 5 games were teams outside the 8 except freo. 2nd or 1st SPOT is up for grabs lets take it

In my dreams Joffa. Still it'll prolly have to take us winning 13 straight to win the flag this year so why not

Good hard fought win. I want to watch the replay before I go into detail. Well done to the Pies in getting up and winning. And well done to McG for his effort in the second half. Also, Rocca deserves a mention for his 5 goals and Burnsy for his game. Well done Pebbles and Burnsy, keep up the great form.

Solid win. Burns is a star, enough said.

Votes:

3- Burns
2- Rocca
1- McGough

Taz and the King stiff to miss.

How anyone can give a Woey a vote is beyond me. He has been in good touch, but Saturday was a night he would rather forget.

Great win Pies. I must admit at half time I was pretty worried, wondering what was going to turn the game around. That ridiculous free kick paid against Tazza - I mean what could the ump have been thinking? It was rare sight seeing Tazza get upset, he's normally pretty calm and laid back - he had every right.

LOVED seeing McGough at work - geez he was good. Someone obviously wants to play finals footy. Rocca - great, Tazza's mark - OMG! Josh's tap outs were fab too. Bucks second half was pretty good, and Woey had a pretty good last quarter from memory too.
Good win overall boys, with an undermanned defence. I dont think we would have won this game same time last year, showed good spirit and determination to come back and give it a good crack - great tackling too (read Richie Cole).

Next 4 weeks are finals for us - go the mightly PIES - the time has arrived.

I don't know if Joffa has seen port play lately Maggies2003 but I have, and what I saw on sunday was a very depleted hawthorn come from 3 goals down with a few mins to play, hit the front ,miss a sitta to seal the game and then hand ball staight to the opposition who fluked a lucky win.
I don't rate port and they will CHOKE long b4 the big one.Collingwood V crows in the granny
