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.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
