Big win for the Pies.

Cox had 52 hitouts, could have had more but spent a bit of the last qtr on the bench.

Pies move up to 8th on the ladder (pending results of other games) we end the Cats chance of making the finals.

[The Black and White Lion]

Good win by the pies. Great Centre burst and clearance from Allan in the 3rd and put it lace out on McInnes chest 40 out on a slight angle. Nice goal by McInnes to finish.
Good to see Macrae back and consistent as ever.
Begg seemed to do well. Cox was killing it otherwise with his reach.
Good spread of goals 11 out of 20 and accurate kicking 20.9 despite the greasy conditions and late rain

[Pies4shaw]

Carmichael a chance for a call up?

For De Goey, I suppose. At least he’s fit.

[stui magpie]

I missed the game, grandad duties, but saw some of the stats. Did Cox have an actual ruckman up against him?

I hope we gave Reef midfield time, we really should be training him as the hybrid mid/forward like Jordy, Dusty or Trac.

[lazzadesilva]

Is Tardrew a chance for senior listing? He is consistently among the best.

[Meredith1965]

No sign of Johnson in goals, disposals, AF… anyone know how he went, or does that tell the story ?

[Jezza]

Strong win

Johnson's stats were 0 goals, 6 disposals, 35 AF points. Very average day.

[The Black and White Lion]

Johnson was no where near it. Had a good mark and shot from 45m on a slight angle in the last. Not much wind but he kicked it really high and it landed in a pack 10m out from goal
