Probably the best season I've experienced in all my time following football, and that includes being at the 2010 Grand Final win.
Yes, we didn't manage to go all the way (and honestly I knew we'd end up losing the last game of the year by a point, because it was just too poetic not to happen...
Well I doubt our paths have crossed on here before to be fair haha. I usually stick to the Collingwood forum AND I've only posted a handful of times in the past 5 years haha
So yesterday while watching all of this unfold, I reworked Billie Eilish's 'Bad Guy' as it just seemed to write itself. Posted in the Collingwood forums already but I feel like it should be shared here too. Enjoy.

So earlier today I reworked Billie Eilish's Bad Guy for my friends. Thought you guys might enjoy it also.
So I am Ned Guy
Love to hand out cash guy
Huge contracts for trash guy
No deal we can't hash guy
I'm that mad type
Makin' Buckley sad type
Cap space getting mad tight
Might drop half the...
That's the kind of win that makes a guy return to BigFooty after relative obscurity for half a decade!
Bad luck Eagles. Fantastic game of football.
Oh wait, sorry, allow me to translate that for you.
"BOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I can't believe people here are claiming that the punishments are too harsh. Compared to what? Hodge's slap on the wrist? Meanwhile I was here calling for him to be sacked until they revealed the punishments, which seem perfectly fair to me.
He's young, sure. But he's not 5 years old. He is an...
De Goey, Goey, Gone.
Sack him.
These 'but he's young' calls are rubbish. I managed to not have my license suspended when I was on my P's. Didn't most of you? He's a drop kick, pure and simple. Time to send a message to everyone else.
Very confused by all that's happening in this thread, but I'm in for SC. Put me in whatever division. I have been in the BigFooty leagues for years, but have been pretty woeful the last few years. Plan to be a little more involved this year though.
Also I replied to his 'farewell Collingwood' tweet (it was a classy exit I'm happy to say) yesterday calling him by that name and he liked the tweet, so safe to say he too is on board with his new moniker.
We traded pick 25 for Greenwood so... hmm.
De Goey and Crisp both had terrible years this year, it's true. Hopefully Crisp goes back to last years form and De Goey continues to improve. As for Greenwood... well we are a team of midfielders now so not sure where he fits.
Hopefully Beams comes...
Yeah that makes a lot of sense. At the time though Beams was a gun for us. He was THE BEST player in our side for close games and often the sole reason we tended to win the close ones. Losing him sucked badly.
Of course, hindsight is a wonderful thing and I'm pretty happy with that trade now lol.
Seriously though, it's low pay, but this is THE START. AFL players were playing for nothing when they started and it has taken them 100+ years to earn these lucrative contracts.
The womens league players won't need to go through that as it will be fast tracked. I doubt we'll see them earning...
Well, Baby Brock Lesnar is Frost, not Beams (just look at him) but I had somehow totally forgotten about Beams. Geez that was some luck you had this year.
