Great quarter of footy, feels like a final

Lions are playing terrific footy

They are my flag favourite by a long way. They will peak at the right time

McLuggage is great to watch

bears and bharat

The intensity of this game is not quite at the level of our game today but pretty good.

bears just seem to pluck talls from everywhere as tall forward options but they definitely let them develop

henry smith has been on their last for years, but in this game he looks like a player ready to be an important part of a very, very good side

they look better without the big o

Can we officially say the Dan Houston trade is a flop yet?

absolutely! i’ve seen a lot of Pies games and he has little impact. No where near AA squad

First round pick me bollocks!

imagine we got him instead of Xl???!!

Not sure, probably be our 2nd best midfielder behind Lanford.

When did Garry Lyon become a Collingwood supporter? Doesn't mind barracking for em

Is he playing? Haven’t seen him yet. Sub?

I heard a guy who makes footy YouTube content talking during the week about big side bias. For context he said if he makes a video about GWS he might get 100 views in 24 hours, for The Bulldogs he might get 1000 views, but if he makes a video about Collingwood it will get 45,000+.

He said the difference is almost unbelievable, and that he literally can’t say negative things about Collingwood or his business wouldn’t be economically viable.

Fox would have much better and more specific data. They tell their special comments guys who to barrack for. Without doubt.

The cricket has been fabulous but the footy wins out tonight

High class match and could be the GF preview

If you want to see how low modern tv journalism has sunk, a channel 7 reporter has tried to doorstop Ginnivan and absolutely embarrassed herself, and he calls her out on it. I'm unsure if you will be able to find it, but is almost humiliating for the poor young woman. I can't stand Ginnivan but he was totally justified to hold his ground and call her out.

I saw it totally differently. She absolutely owned Ginnivan. He’s not quick-witted, all he could muster was a silly giggle followed by “you’re embarrassing.”

She didn’t strike me as humiliated at all. She killed it.

Also, it’s not like she appeared in his shower stall at home, he was walking through the airport, a busy public space. The cocky little upstart invites this kind of attention despite lacking in the repartee department.

Hugh McLuggage is a very good player.

Houston's drop off is remarkable, never seen anything like it

Collingwood bring on Hill as the sub, we bring on sharp

Big flop. He wouldn't be in our top 10 players on form, and we're legit rubbish at the moment.

He wasn't worth what we would've paid for him on previous All Aus form. Thank God that trade didn't work out and we wound up with Langford and Lindsey instead!

Well we will have to disagree. Ginnivan is a total tool and a real numpty - but the quality of journalism was akin to a 14 yo tiktok influencer trying for a selfie with their crush.
