Practice Match #3 - Blues v Collingwood at Princes Park

[MagpieBat]

Mason: "A series of handpasses end up with Will De Bruin who steadies, ignores an option over the top and goals himself with his left".

About freaking time!

[MagpieBat]

Interesting to note that Cribbin has been taking most of the kick-ins today, and that all of his disposals have ben kicks...

[MagpieBat]

Start of the 2nd half...

[MagpieBat]

...and the Magpies goal within a minute!

Mason: "Brede Seccull, who has been extremely impressive during the practice matches, dodges around two players and bananas a goal from an angle. Well played."

Scum 2.6.18
Pies 2.2.14

Collingwood kicking to Heatley Stand end (righ of screen)...

[MagpieBat]

Corr swoops in and makes the most of his chance and Collingwood hit the front!

Pies 3.2.20

9 mins in...

[MagpieBat]

Shae Mac with a great mark in defence, but the umpire said he pushed in the back. The Big Yank is, understandably, not happy...

Scum back in front.

Blues 3.7.25
Pies 3.2.20

Coran, 40m out for the Scum, misses a 9 times out of 10 shot.

[MagpieBat]

Start of proceedings in the final term at Princes Park. Collingwood down by one straight kick, can they get up?

[MagpieBat]

Magpies snare a goal! Sam Williams gets onto the ball from a stoppage in attack and snaps truly.

All square at Filth Park, 5 minutes in.

Scum 3.8.26
Pies 4.2.26

Mason: "As Lou Richards might say, it's a ringa-ding-ding here at Visy Park."

[MagpieBat]

Lincoln with a minor score for the home side, and the Scum are 1 point in the lead...

[MagpieBat]

From the stoppage on centre-wing, Stubbs bursts forward into attack, to Courtot, to Corr 15m out from goal, who fumbles, gets it back, shrugs a tackle and GOALS!

The Pies are back in front!

Scum 3.10.28
Magpies 5.2.32

13 minutes gone, final term.

[MagpieBat]

DAMN IT! Scum get a free kick, 40m out directly in front, and for once, this time they don't squander it.

Filth 4.10.34
Pies 5.2.32

16 minutes gone...
