A lot has been said about the game on Sunday and how we may have gotten carried away "flying the flag". Did it cost us the game? Its debatable - certainly got Collingwood back into the game. But at this stage of the season - whats more important?

Personally, thought it was great to see! As well as giving me the opportunity to get massively fired up and give it to some Scum supporters around me, so good to see a group of guys playing together as a team! Not only then - you saw it when our man Paul Bower kicked his goal - this is a group of guys who enjoy playing together, work for each other and support each other. Thats a great thing to see in a team that has only won 3 games for the season, that they still have that spirit.

I agree....things like that made it the best game of the year for me...didn't care that we lost.

Saw a bit flair, agro, talent (Eddie you freak), dash....had it all

The Pies game = 4 normal games for a kid.

The pressure, atmosphere, physical clashes and controversy will fast track a youngster more than a ring a ring a rosy game where we are 8 goals down at 3/4 time and kickk a few goals in the last quater and make it look close.

We were in it and run out of legs and composure when it counted. But we were not embarrassed and Bower and Setanta in particular showed some very good signs.

A lot to like about how we played. Football this time of year for a bottom team can be pretty meaningless but this was 1 game where it meant something.
