It's been a while since I've posted here. Life has moved on and I find myself with too many balls in the air to bother. But I feel compelled to write today about what happened after the game on Monday. My wife and I have been attending games most weeks. She isn't a Collingwood supporter, but...

John Krutop is a professional photographer who once worked for the Age. He claims some of these photos taken by him have never been seen before. Enjoy

Came to gloat about Geelong losing. Couldn't find a thread. Fwiw. I reckon giants wrote the blueprint on beating Geelong

I got thinking about this reading a variety of posts about our alleged poor finals record. I'm a Collingwood tragic. I love the club in all it's flawed glory. I make no apologies. But I often think about what would have happened if..... If Tuddy had of missed McKenna in the 1970 GF, there...

I've been moved to write this post by the constant sky is falling narrative from some posters compared to the Pollyanna everything is roses commentary from others. I like to think of myself as a realist and honestly believe that where the club sits right now s a proper reflection of its...

I'm fed up to the back teeth with this crap. From Saturday evening the videos on AFL website and Collingwood website refuse to load. These are the only sites on the web that I have this trouble with. I've updated browsers, cleared caches, updated Java and done everything but flung the laptop...

I haven't been very active on this board for 6 months or so. But I do read a lot. Some posters make me laugh, some make me feel good, some actually improve my knowledge of the club and or players and others just make me shake my head in frustration more than anything else. Everyone is entitled...

WHat can I say McKenna 9 goals Greening Price The Richardson Bros Thompson and many more Special mention to Butch Gale, Mike Williamson and Ted Whtten

Came across this today. There are some names that cop some flak on here - Kelly, Gubby, to name two, but never forget what they did. Great interviews with Kelly, Shaw, Richardson, Gavin Brown , Sheedy and Tim Watson. Enjoy!, Part 2

G'day Ed. To be honest I never thought it would come to this. We're in a fine mess. The football club(that's the men's senior 18 - our raison detre, if you like) is puddling around in mediocrity. It needs to be fixed. I know you say you have it all in hand. You're running a review or two...

Last night I had a revelation...and it wasn't that pleasant. I actually WANT Hawthorn to win this year. I'm sick and tired of supporters clinging to the machine's fourpeat performance like its the last real record that we hold. It happened two lifetimes ago in a suburban competition which had...

In 2006 Geelong finished 10th the highlight from my personal point of view was a 100 point flogging in Round 8 from Collingwood 22.14.146 to 6.8.44 The club seemed to have plenty of talent and boasted the following names in its list Ablett, Bartel, Ottens, Ling, Chapman, Steve Johnson, Enright...

When I was a kid Fitztroy were my 2nd team. I followed them pretty closely and they had two gun small men Garry Wilson and Warwick Irwin. Irwin was a gun at Fitzroy playimg as a ruck rover, rover, centerman and occasional winger. Towards the end of his career Irwin was recruited to...

I've been doing some research on an article I might write about the premierships that got away. One season that still grates on me is 1973 when we lost from (another) unloseable position this time in a prelim final against Richmond. I was there that day and I think I was scarred for life. For...

Last year two teams performed better than what they were by virtue of their soft draw (the teams that they played twice). They were Richmond and North Melbourne. It's really too early to tell what's going to be a soft draw until the season is well under way, but at first glance on exposed form...
