    That decision was one of the highlights of the game!
    I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

        Yeah, sure...

          Only if someone tells Adam it's the one without the ears.

            I thought after the game that it was definitely the clangers that killed us. Then I checked the stats today and yes, Sydney had 46 but the Pies had 41 - not much of a difference.

            I find this very surprising. Frees against were 20 Sydney and 16 Pies. That's already four of the five clanger difference. So that leaves the rest. Now I swear I saw Sydney mess up possession way more times than Collingwood. Kicks and hand passes went straight to the opposition way more times than it went to us. Both teams dropped marks and the like but even then, I still think we were ahead on that front.

              We made more clangers in our half of the field than they did in theirs. And that ended up pretty costly.

                Agree on that, but what I'm saying is that I'm sure we made more clangers than the Pies. Way more. "Way" as in say, 30-50% more.

                Just didn't compute and I found it odd.

                  I'm with you there Danzar, the stats just don't add up.

                    It's funny how peoples heads can sometimes be mistaken for a footy.
