    News Welcome to the Collingwood Women's Team!

    Yeah, that makes sense, I'd just not seen anything mentioned (and "sense" plus "AFL" don't go hand-in-hand)

    News Welcome to the Collingwood Women's Team!

    Have they stated how the complete draft order works? There doesn't seem to be any explanation that I can find. I know they had the lottery to determine the order for the first round, but you'd hope they have some kind of formula that results in the overall drafting process being fair to all...

    Of course you are referring to ALL manufacturers of dairy products (aren't you)?

    Traded Jarrad Witts [traded to Gold Coast for picks 44 & 62]

    Yep, correct, apologies. Couldn't remember the exact term so I guess "Academy" was the only thing that popped into my little brain...

    Traded Jarrad Witts [traded to Gold Coast for picks 44 & 62]

    Personally I think that it's a case of Witts being more value to Collingwood as a "use in case of emergency" back-up than what we will receive for him via a trade," but if he feels he wants to go for more opportunity elsewhere, I'm sure we will do our best to facilitate a trade. I'd LOVE to get...

    Apologies go the dogs, you have been respectful and deserve a little more respect than you have been shown. Please don't assume that we are all as difficult to converse with!

    Player Watch Marley Williams (Traded to North 2016)

    I certainly agree that we need to be very careful about trading players out because of a bad game or two, or in Marley's case, a pretty ordinary season. But although the talk (on BF at least) is that he wants to leave, I have no idea, and I also don't know whether the club is in fact looking to...

    Player Watch Marley Williams (Traded to North 2016)

    Doodles, I have not read the whole thread, so forgive me if I am taking anything out of context, but I think that just mentioning the above names doesn't win you the argument. Taking the circumstances of each player individually, I just don't think it's as black & white as you suggest. Beams...

    Competitions Best Crowd Quotes at the Footy

    Not long after Shane Morwood had crossed to the 'Pies (and before he had won the fans over), after a (then) typical mistake, one of the 'Pies supporters yells out "Morwood, there's a taxi outside waiting for ya, be under it!"

    V.F.A in the 80's

    Dandy was in the Hawks' zone, if I recall correctly, and they (bless 'em) decided he wasn't up to scratch. Or that's my memory of things. Yeah, I was also a Collingwood supporter long before Millane, he was just one of the few (perhaps the only one) I can personally remember playing for both...

    V.F.A in the 80's

    So Timmy, you'd be (another) IMO rare person that supports both the 'Pies and the Redlegs? Grew up going to Shepley Oval when Frosty, Eddie & co. were in their heyday. Obviously Darren Millane in later years quickly became a favourite player, captaining the Redlegs before playing for the 'Pies...

    News Round 1 vs the Swans moved to the SCG.

    Fellow Pie in peace, and simply wishing to question that one phrase....I live in HK and have visited a few places in Asia over the years, and I (and literally all of my friends here) rate the Philippine cuisine as possibly the worst (least interesting / appetising) in Asia. Is it the Philippine...

    And very importantly, if our game plan DOES take us to number 16, is it number 16 on the ladder, or premiership number 16 :D
