Fasolo a class above VFL level.

Clever, strong hands and last year was just an aberration when it comes to his goal kicking accuracy.

Umpire holds the ball aloft to start proceedings in the final term, before a good crowd here at an overcast and sorta-smokey Victoria Park.

Collingwood lead by 28 points. Can we make it home...?

Really good job from Lynch on Luenberger, he's been very competitive.

Daicos from HBF finds Jack Blair out on the outer wing in a bit of space.

Blair Jr spots up Fasolo just inside forward 50.

Fas plays on, gives off to Wells in the pocket, who dances, sidesteps, checksides and KICKS THE GOAL!!!

OH YES!!!

85-63

Chippendale marks at true CHF to that Yarra Falls end.

Angles the kick into the arc for Wellings!

Wellings elects to centre it up, finds another new VFL Magpie in Gallucci!

From 40m, slight angle... GOAL!!!

91-63

Daicos, with the goal as open as you can get, slips over at the top of the square, bounces back up and snaps a miraculous.... poster...

Wells marks out on the Turner Street wing from Jarryd Blair.

Deciding to test those calfs, he goes all the way into the corridor for Madgen, who marks uncontested.

Madgen short into the arc for a leading Daicos!

From 50m, slightest of angles... GOAL!!!

98-65

Boyse gets one back for the Bombers, but you'd think the Pies are home in this one...
