The Magpies have a good group of older, wiser more experienced heads that handled the clutch moments better.

And remember they played in a GF IN 2018 and prelim in 2019 and made the semis in 2020. Sure they were 17th last year but have a very experienced core that have played in many big games and we have SFA in that regard except for Williams and McGovern who have played finals campaigns at other clubs.

“No one will ever tell me that two consecutive “blocking” decisions did not manufacture that outcome.

In the first, Quainor pushed Silvagni into a Collingwood teammate. Cost us a shot dead in front.

Ball goes down the other end - good honest pack marking contest, somehow a free kick to Collingwood who goal.”
Exactly. Fell apart after that little sequence. Not an excuse but was a trigger for the poor choices that followed.
The momentum swung and that was that.

Very poor effort against a committed but limited team that play kamikaze footy and will scrag in every contest and play on the limit of the rules. We just don’t have that mongrel mentality in enough of our players.
We look really slow across the ground tonight and really need Jack Martin back in the side as he can provide class and nous up forward. If he breaks down again too bad we need to at least try him.
