Tell them how it is done, Bazz.   Nev up to kick the winning goal deep into time on Q4?

I think you're on to something there, Mono!  Has a nice ring to it!  (Although, to be honest, don't think my heart would survive that.  Would prefer we get a commanding lead before 3/4 time, and hold it through the last 1/4.)

But, first we gotta get it done today.  Would be nice to put the crowd out of the equation by blowing them away in the 1st Qtr, lead by 7 goals at 1/4 time and extend the lead each 1/4 from there.

I can dream!  (54 years gives one a lot of time to develop very wild dreams!!)

GO DEES!!!!!

Is one of those guys' Ch7's CEO who midyear (when the ratings were down) said something like:  "...all we need is to get Collingwood up and about..."

He got his wish!!  Get ready for saturation Thur/Fri/Sat night Coll games on FTA ?

Losing sides often look sh-thouse but it is usually the other side that causes that. It is not just that they played poorly, they were made to play poorly by a better side on the night. 

Credit when credit is due.

Our frenetic pressure beat Cats, Hawks, WCE and GW$

Hi Red,

Rance can do some brilliant things, fair enough, but with respect disagree re having in the side; Davis, Stewart, Hurn, Laird, McGovern are all players I would love before Rance, his acting really irritates the bejeezus out of me. 

He tri d and failed several times to milk frees that he would often have got ..... locked the look of amazement.  Rather like Selwood, Dangerfield, Hawkins and Ablett when they missed out on frees they felt that they surely deserved.

Couple of things out of the game.

Noticed quite a number of non handballs that were tap on with the open hands, sometimes in a row by Coll.

Noticed lots of unpaid free kicks, in packs, in backs and high. So a lesson to tomorrows Umpires or just wishful thinking,

Were the players happy with Dustin, i wonder because should he have declared not fit?

So many incorrect disposal  not paid both ways

Corruption and collusion at its finest, even by AFL standards

Not sure why people are talking about playing the Pies, they are in it, we aren't.

Based on tonight's form, can't imagine any Dee who wouldn't have preferred paying Richmond next week. 

Either way, we still gotta get through the Eagles and that's a huge ask at Optus. Play the same game at the MCG and we'd smash em. 

Please get the job done Dees!! 

Honestly,  I'd always rather play a team that looked bad in a loss: the form team always goes through. 

The question is: did Collingwood already play their grand final?

[Diamond_Jim 12,627]

wow .. there are some weird vibes here about playing Collingwood.

IF we win today it will give us the opportunity to write history.

The bookend theory would do more for this club than any can imagine. It's a marketer's dream.

Go West and Conquer young Demons !!!

[Lucifers Hero 40,329]

Whoever wins today must stop Coll winning the GF - it will be their 16th flag equal with Ess and Carlton.

Hopefully it is us but they must be stopped!

Well done Collingwood. 

I though this web site censors foul language

Are the random drug tests done after the club song or before it? 

[loges 6,767]

Yes, Pies played well but after about the !st 15 minutes Tiges went completely into  their shell and became completely reactive. Once you do that in this game it's game over. They were pretty much out numbered at the contest from then on. As long as we do our homework and don't fold like the Tiges we are a big chance if we win today.

GO DEMONS!!!!
