Funny Cam but I was about to say the same thingš If they frowned and spit chips for a bit more time, their long faces would cracked open wideš

Yeah I was one who doubted that we had the cattle to win this game. They did win and I was put back in my place however I still believe that our cattle could be improved next season and would be improved with the return of those out with injuries. My confidence that we could be alright next year instead of struggling until 2023 or 2024 has shot up.

It apparently inspired Adams

Iām not saying we have the greatest team, but with a more direct style of football and taking the game on you give yourself the opportunity to win. I canāt understand why Bucks persisted with his terrible game plan.
If we draft right over the next couple of years weāll be back up there. Get the right coach with an attacking mindset and we can challenge for a flag. |

Itās amazing what a bit of a rev up from the coach can do. I believe we wasted 10 years with Bucks. He saw no reason to motivate players. 10 wasted years and a 2010 premiership team that had at least another flag in them all because Eddie had to give a job to his mate. It makes me sick. |

How Grundy didn't get in the best according the the AFL writeup is beyond me.
He absolutely monstered Chol all day, and particularly when it counted after half time.
According to AFL:
BEST
Richmond: Bolton, Grimes, Short, Graham, Baker, Lynch
Collingwood: Crisp, Adams, De Goey, Maynard, Elliott, Pendlebury
Yeah Elliott kicked 3 in the end, but I rated Grundy WAY over him today. |

He did well in the VFL in defence.

Because they give it to the best players not who got the most stats.
I remember a game in the early part of the century and a rare Collingwood win over Hawthorn, Mitchell, Hodge and Crawford all got 30+ possessions and MMM gave them 3-2-1 in the W.O.G award because they were completely ineffective |

Sensational win. Hats off to the whole team.
Even Henry did a few nice things and should be better for the run. Imagine this team with the inclusions of Moore, Howe, Daicos, Poulter and Mcreery. If we land the right coach, Choco will have us in the top 4 next season! Go Pies! |

FF and a couple of good midfielders, and keep developing the kids and last of all the right coach. |

Fantastic win!!!
It was a very even game for three quarters with only Richmonds accuracy keeping them ahead.
Once we starting capitalising on our own chances, we made them look second rate.
As for the continual mentions about their āyoungā list and the amount of players that they had out, I say, welcome to what weāve had to endure for the last 8 years.
