Please delete if not allowed mods. I mean no disrespect or offence to anybody. Posted on Instagram one hour ago. I hope this doesn’t end how it appears it might. C’mon DJ, there’s plenty of people who love you big man, hope you can find it in yourself to reach out one more time. Breaks my heart...
For those unaware, today marks the day that would’ve been the AFL Grand Final had we been in a normal season.
Fox Footy doing a ‘best finals’ countdown. Currently playing, 2002 Grand Final.
I was 10 years old, it’s literally the only game that causes me as much heartache, if not more, than the...
Sorry if I missed a very obvious existing thread. I did look lol.
Just wanted to say how I think Jaidyn Stephenson could learn something by watching Zak Butters. His lack of physicality really bothers me. I don’t wanna say he should be harder because who am I to comment, but when a guy like...
Thank god for the big beautiful man wearing number 4.
Got a lot of work to do.
One positive was the adjustment to at least hinder their sling shot out of the back half. Varcoe, Thomas and Brown got busier.
I’ll get it started this week.
Gallant losses are really starting to get old. Proud of the effort and the heart, but it’s a real kick in the gut to walk away with nothing.
I’m not gonna break it right down, but feeling really deflated despite the effort. Poor execution again undoubtedly let us...
Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm back with a sleeker and more in depth cheat sheet for 2018! For those unfamiliar with my 2017 work, heres the link:
https://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/supercoach-2017-cheat-sheet-enjoy.1159244/
I'll be posting screenshots from the individual JLT games then at the...
Hey folks, so round 22 is about to kick off, and I thought it might be a bit of an interesting exercise to analyse how supporters have rated their clubs year overall.
Instead of using a general 1-10 or letter grading system, lets use Terry Wallace's footy golf format. Simply state Eagle...
(Couldn't think of a better thread title, feel free to suggest something haha)
About a month ago on Talking Footy they took the Western Bulldogs premiership team and put it up on the screen, then analysed whether or not that player had improved or gone backwards during 2017. I think from memory...

Not thread worthy, just need a quick answer and can't find the info I'm looking for.
Looking for an up to date list, post round 11, of how many players each club has used this season.
Either the full list or a link.
Cheers in advance.
- Sorry to be a pain mods, feel free to delete...
Hey folks, sorry for the intrusion and clogging up your board with another thread, just couldn't figure out where else to post my question.
I came into possession of this football a while ago (year unknown), at first I didn't know what club it even belonged to, but I'm pretty sure it's Essendon...
Sorry to start a whole thread for this, but you know when you're trying to think of a song title or an actor in a film but you just can't think of it? Well I've been in that boat for about a week now and now I'm doubting if the person I'm trying to think of even exists lol.
I've literally got...
*May have language offensive to some*
Yikes. Fair blunder to be making. Obviously not intentional, but surely someone proof read the post before publishing it.
Hey folks, I'm not usually one to start a main board thread, but with Lance Franklin hastily approaching the top 10 goal kickers of all time after his 8 goal haul on the weekend my mate and I were discussing where Buddy sits in terms of all time great players in the league.
I posed the...
Merge if necessary, just didn't want to go to the effort of writing this post for it all to be lost in the abyss of the rants and nonsense of the post mortem thread :thumbsu:
I'm not usually one for this sort of player by player analysis of a game, but I'm bored and I need something to, I'm...
So folks, it's been suggested to me that I create a thread for more of my spreadsheet screenshots, as well as having a place for others to also share any research they've collated. I'm going to try and regularly update this original post with my entire spreadsheet. I'll most likely update it and...
Maybe thread worthy, maybe not. How do we feel about the 'Magpie Millions' initiative that was launched today?
For those who haven't heard, the club has launched a Collingwood lottery in which people pick a set of 6 current day players, and then one past legend (which I'm assuming serves as...
EDIT- I don't know how many times I need to say it. I'm not saying this single handedly cost them the game despite the antagonistic thread title. I'm not saying the Bulldogs didn't miss out on a few contentious ones. All I'm saying is forget that a) it's a prelim b) there's 5 points in it c)...
Congratulations Tom Barrass.
Well come on, he's gunna get it. The commentary team have essentially made the decision for the selectors. He played a ripping game, but there's always a chance that in one of the next 8 games he'll be trumped. But it's been decided, just like it was when...
Ah, I wanted to avoid starting a new thread for this, but I couldn't find an appropriate thread to post.
We all (well most of us) love to complain about bias commentary, we've got our game faces on and any criticism of our team is taken on as a personal insult. I'm just watching the replay of...
Well folks, the sun is slowly setting on 2016. We waited patiently through the summer months for football to return and with Round 19 approaching, we prepare to slog it out again and hope that the magpie is more prosperous in 2017.
After a surprising win against GWS on their home deck, a...
I was going to name this thread after myself but I didn't to seem too egocentric (no disresepect TD, maybe when I hit 5k I'll start ;)). It seems that Monday's are my most productive BigFooty days, and usually my posts are one of two things, a) a passion filled plea to supporters to stick with...
Was looking for a general thread, just wanted to direct your attention to Footy Classified. Looks like we'll be on the agenda for most of the night.
Apparently a former premiership player hits out against Bucks. I'll be keen to see who, and if it's just sour grapes or substantiated comments.
I think Round One as a whole has been an excellent standard.
1748 points kicked, an average of 97.11 points kicked per team. 5 of the 9 losing teams cleared 80 points. 5 of the 9 winning teams cleared 115 points.
It's great to have footy back!
Discuss.
EDIT: After some discussion and number...
Back in October I started up the thread for pre-season discussion, as the season is now only 4 days away I felt it was time for the Home and Away season thread!
SO, here it is. The go-to thread for articles, videos, team selection etc etc. Obviously throughout the course of the season we'll...
For those of you really craving football, do yourself a favour and reminisce by going to YouTube and searching "Collingwood Classics" from YouTube user Elchubinebre.
Match highlights from some games that you may remember and games you may not.
Just watched the 2002 ANZAC Day highlights, and...
I was just browsing some 2015 stats for fun (yes, fun), and it occurred to me that we were superior to, or broke even with Richmond in pretty much every stat during the 2015 season.
Compare the pair. Collingwood to the left, Richmond to the right.
*Per game averages*
Clearances total- 38.9 -...
Well Ladies and Gents, I want to wipe the slate clean, get you all involved and do a bit of an autopsy. For those of you who are unaware a few of the Collingwood BigFooty posters and I have been partaking in a Collingwood fantasy draft. The idea being that we take it in turns to select any...
OP last updated: 8;42am, Tuesday November 10th, 2015. Game Completed
GAME RULES
- We will pick 18 players each, possibly a bench of 4 and 3 emergencies.
- Any Collingwood player, past or present is available for selection.
