I know it's been mentioned in passing in other threads. But, on the eve of "H's" debut for us, and his 200th AFL game, I reckon he deserves a thread of his own.

Just watched his Press Conference. What an impressive young man! Very pleased to have him at the MFC, and really hope he turns it on big time tomorrow!

There's also a really nice highlights video on the MFC website. Even includes Bucks commenting on "H" reaching the 200 milestone. Good stuff! Bucks tells the story of how he apparently turned up at Collingwood from Perth, and pretty much begged them to give him a go. Very reminiscent of our own Shane Woewodin all those years ago.

A terrific "get" for the MFC!

Go Dees!

Must be a bittersweet moment for him. 200 is such a great achievement, but without any of his black-and-white teammates around him - not even Dawes!

I reckon it'll just give him even more reason to go out there and be explosive. I'm quietly hopeful he'll drag the rest of the team with him, but the last NAB match doesn't fill me with confidence.

Wishful thinking! When was the last time a Collingwood person did anything classy?

My husband did - he married me!! And he will be there with me tomorrow at the G.

So in another 20 games we can call him 'Heavy Harry"?

(That may be too obscure for Victorians aged under about 65.)

I'm a Victorian and past 65 "M". You have left me feeling extremely obscure.

But I'll get over it.

220 games doesn't equate to a ton. So I'll move on.

I will admit I was apprehensive last year when he was recruited but after seeing him train and his performances in the NAB games,I'm nothing but excited to have him play for us.Go Prince!

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
