As a side issue: today marks Jack Crisp’s 238th consecutive game. He’s now only seven games away from breaking Jimmy’s record. Time’s running out. Records are made to be broken etc. but the thought of that grub being the one to take the mantle makes me sick.

Someone needs to take him out (make it look like an accident 🤭). 

I've arranged it with the boys. Next week he goes down in the 'thoid'.

[Go Ds 335]

God knows how good the Giants are. But one game under the belt compared to our none is a big advantage. Also they have a bye straight afterwards so they can throw themslves around even further knowing they have a long recovery time. Geez, it'll be good if we beat them!

Media really do gargle the Pies something fierce. Just vomit inducing. 

Apparently the Herald Sun sells way more copies if the Filth are mentioned on the front page

Sidebottom in at the centre bounce...really?

Good grief he'd have to play on into 2026 to get there!

The Pies getting smashed in opening round*

 

 

*Why not play a full round and utilise the holiday Monday?  4 games is half-baked 

Give the clubs/players another bye during the season (it's needed)

[At the break of Gawn 4,512]

This is so grim for Collingwood, and I love it.

LLLLLURRVE THE SOUND OF THAT! They are soooooooo old that the club took out a bunch of pre paid funeral plans😙😇🤪🥳😎

I have been saying for some time that the Pies will fall off a cliff with their age structure, hopefully I will finally be right 😁

They only had a few flashes of the Collingwood of yesteryear and generally looked like a plodding lower mid table side and not a real contender.

Only Round 1 but good to see a heavy loss to kick the season off.

I took my son to Princes Park this morning for the open training session, watched the Pies in a 50+ point loss on TV this arvo and had a beer and a swim at the beach this evening. What an awesome day! (with a public holiday tomorrow) 😀

… and Storm enjoyed a thumping win; their 23rd consecutive first-round win. Incredible. 💜

Doesn’t feel like the season has even started yet. What a [censored].

Depends...

GWS are defensively sound and didn't let them play their game. They took it away from them.

How many other teams can do this?

That will decide the season of the pies this year to my mind.

They say when Collingwood is involved they sell more papers but that means more paper for the budgie cage bottom.

[Rollo2 65]

Yes the pies looked bad but the Giants looked absolutely elite. Finn Callaghan looks superhuman out there (cough cough ASADA cough cough). 

Not dancing on Collingwood's grave until I see us against the orange tsunami next week.

Or if you live in the country, to use in the Thunder Box.

and that was 2 years ago; pendles legs moves real quick when stationary; like treacle

If we beat gws next week we are well and truly on this year.

They looked amazing

They should have beaten the Swannettes in the GF last Season 

44 points up against The Bears and they relaxed 1%
If we can beat them next week it will be huge 

We need to emphasise Speed and ball movement, constantly create options 

That  is not our game plan LIve in hope

[DiscoStu17 871]

I’m surprised the GWS forwards were able to tie their bootlaces before the game.
Or maybe they’ve all got broken thumbs.

Nice to see the pies lose and most players cramping.

Let’s hope for a stinking hot day this weekend!
