Why Collingwood Lost The 2011 Grand Final

This thread should be 'why Geelong won the 2011 Geand Final'.

Geelong were just the better team and played that much better.

The soft tissue injuries to Jolly and Reid were also a factor. But I still believe that they are better than any alternatives that Collingwood had.

I enjoyed the win hugely and I have admired the Geelong playing style for quite sometime now!

    Geelong were too good for the Pies all year, three wins from three matches.

    1 narrow win

    1 belting

    And a comfortable win in the GF.

    That about says in all.

    Because they just do..............Collingwood create a new record in 2011 GF

    Collingwood have played in a record 44 grand finals, winning 15, drawing two and losing a record 27 opening up a huge margin on their nearest rivals.

    Man!

    There wouldn't be many teams that can say that they have beaten Collingwood three times in a year.

    I wish we could say that for once!

    This may sound strange DC but I would take that part of their record since 1965 in preference to the MFC record.

    At least they get a good run for their money!

    All Ive got to say is that Collingwood have played in the last 3 Grand Finals and only won one and thats a good thing.

    Because Collingwood are a pack of front runners. But when it counts they're no good at all. Maybe the world stage does suit them, send them off to Arizona permanently, i'm sure there's a trailer park around there somewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
