Why Do We Save Our Worst Performances For The Pies?

Especially when the match is the only game shown that night on tv (stage fright?). No wonder we have so many Sydney detractors.

Btw, the ground last night felt horrible walking and running over it. It was like treading on an old mattress.

Actually, we've never really played well at Telstra/ANZ when there is a huge crowd, the so called blockbusters

I lot of it has to do with the Pies themselves. I don't think they played particularly well last night in terms of their skills but they did execute whatever Malthouse has them do against us with a lot of discipline. Malthouse has cracked the formula for clogging up the space our half-backs and half-forwards like to run into and at the moment, the team and Roos don't seem to have a clue what the answer is.

Your right! They played like crap. We just managed to find a way to play worse.
