Very satisfying win given the lead up to the game and all the Collingwood hype.
Charlie has gone to the next level as a Full Forward and dare I say it seems to take charge more with Harry out of the team.
Newman and Weitering were outstanding down back and the former has been our best player this season along with unlucky Cerra who had a great first half.
Never been a fan of Martin and it's been a long time between drinks ie his first game but he actually gave us a complete game and converted well which was a key factor in the win so credit to him.
Thought Collingwood had their fair share of the ball but were under pressure most of the time and our tackling was at its best it been for years.
Re Marchbank....didn't have a great game and is very slow but at the same time being thrown into a big game with no previous senior footy for a long while you probably have to expect a few errors.
Didn't think the ruck battles influenced much and the midfield was even but we had the better forwards and method and that's where the game was won.
