General feeling of the online Magpie community is shock and disappointment. Some willing to write it off as ‘one of those days’.
Concerned w fitness, leg speed, forward line dysfunction.
Worried by Pendles and Sidey.
Next wk v Port could be telling.

Final score:
GWS: 15.14.104
Collingwood: 6.16.52
Giants were incredible.
Callaghan, Jones, Taylor, Daniels, Kelly, Whitfield and many more had great games.
Concerning performance for the Pies. Played some great footy but quite underwhelming overall

This will not silence the chatter around the age of the Magpies’ list. A few of their ageing stars and recruits mostly ineffective and looked quite slow.
Won’t be the only team to be made to look slow against this Giants team.
GWS have sent a warning!

Curtains for the Pies. Membrey marked at top of goal square. Played on not knowing Ward was closing in. HTB.
Callaghan 😍 involved in the rebound and then finished with the running goal from 50. Ridiculous stuff
97-51

Pies out on their feet. Giants full of run - Callaghan, Bedford, Jones, Ash, Daniels.
Some seriously electrifying play from the Giants.

Membrey with his first in the black and white but Daniels responds for GWS.
Giants appear to have more run in their legs.

Another cracking qtr, for different reasons. Pies attacked and attacked, GWS absorbed with occasional electrifying rebounds.
Players dropping like flies with cramp. Naicos is cooked. Pies virtually need to double their score in the last.
GWS lead 63-37

Mid 3rd. Still intense. Pies dominating play but unable to capitalise. 0.4 for the qtr.Goalless term so far.
Naicos struggling with what appears to be calf cramp. Been off for several minutes receiving treatment.
GWS - 8.8.56
Pies - 4.12.36

Finn Callaghan 😮😮😮
Showing why the Saints offered him the biggest contract ever.
17 touches and a goal. It’s the quality of his touches.
Breaking lines, breaking the game open.
Shaping to become one of the best in league.

WOW!!! 😮 What a qtr of footy. One of the best. Swings in momentum, fast, high pressure, hard hitting. Pies lifted and then Giants lifted again!
HT -
GWS: 8.7.55
Magpies 4.8.32

Giants last ten minutes were incredible
#aflGiantsPies
#giantspies
Pretty even umpires first half.
Notice the holding the ball decision not as brutal as Friday night’s game
Turned the TV on ten minutes ago and was pleased to see the Giants thumping the Pies.
Six hundred seconds later, I may turn the tv off, I’m obviously bad luck for GWS.
Also, shut up, Dermott.

Pies controlling the 2nd qtr and starting reap the rewards on the scoreboard.
Howe off for a fitness test after copping some friendly fire. Lucky to escape without anything more serious after backing into traffic.

Giants lifted big time after Briggs’ injury. Almost like it encouraged them to try harder.. Bang, bang, bang!
Inaccuracy hurt the Pies.

Cracking weather. Can the Giants get it done without Hogan and Green? Their speed could trouble the Pies but Pies deserve to be favs imv.
Should be a belter!
