...Hoyne was impressed with how Collingwood was able to get on top of Melbourne. “they had a 200 pressure rating in the first 40 minutes compared to Melbourne's 175. “A lot of the talk has been, how did Melbourne blow it? But for Collingwood to get to a 27-point lead in that 40-minute period was absolutely exceptional on their behalf.”
Taylor Adams - 7 contested possessions
Steele Sidebottom - 8 contested possessions
Jack Crisp - 10 disposals

^Thanks so much TS for this link. Fantastic article...I am now watching the first 40 minutes again to try to appreciate fully what Hoyne is saying in this article.

This is crucial, especially in a final because it can lead to confidence that we are playing well and cause the opposition to be concerned about the score. This type of psychological pressure is underrated and can lead to panic by the opposition who worry about the fact that they are behind. The longer the pressure is exerted, the more worry we cause. I would have all the forwards practising their goal kicking this week. |
What you're hoping we'll do is exactly what we did last Thursday.
Final scores...
Collingwood 9.6.60
Melbourne 7.11.53
9.6 inaccurate??
We made the most of our minimal chances. Melbourne didn't.... they choked all the way along the boundary line, ignoring their team mates standing alone in the corridor. Then we mirrored them and it lulled them into a deeper commitment to hug the boundary all the way to nowhere.

| A big shout out to Taylor Adams, for a brilliant game. He more than anyone else, led the way in getting tough contested balls, when the game was up for grabs. I know he's got his critics on Nicks, but he has a great record of playing well in finals, and if he can keep it up for another 2 games, it will go a long way to helping us secure another flag. Well done Tay. |

| Spot On RudeBoy. I have been an Adams fan for a long time, sure he makes mistakes but his positives far outweigh his negatives. |

Yeah Piesnchess, as much as I loathe the scum, the fact is that Goodwin pissed me off with his cryptic comments on Bruzza and his constant bloody sooking in just about every bloody interview he did 😡 He can play with his mothballs now and get to know the game of Aussie Rules better so he understands how accidents can happen in the heat of the game 🥸

That's actually really embarrassing for the club if true. That they let an accidental act that led to a player getting injured – hardly unheard of on the football field – wind them up that much and lead them to take their eyes off the ball reflects badly on their culture.
If Goodwin sensed that this was an issue, he should have been firm during the week in the lead-up to the Carlton game that players shouldn't try to go overboard physically to compensate, because any fool would have been able to see that that would end up costing them. But as we saw, he set the wrong example from the beginning and, rather than being professional, fed that seething resentment and sense of being wronged.
Control the things you can control. It's as simple as that. It sounds like Goodwin and Melbourne failed to do that.
