Collingwood Vs. Fremantle

Today I went to the MCG to see Collingwood take a loss to the Dockers, and I was truly dissapointed with the result. The ground was obviously slippery, and this caused the Pies some grief, but the Dockers seemed to have a much better grip on the conditions. It was neck and neck right through to the third term, but in the fourth quarter the Dockers just seemed too much. While Buckley and Dale Thomas played well, key players like Rocca and Leonne Davis just didn't have the enthusiasm or the energy to take to to them. In the end, the Pies narrowed the gap to just 15 points at the final siren, but it wasn't enough.
