I’m not sure of the numbers on here, but I know there are a plenty of AFL members that like me rarely reserve a seat for Marvel matches. I just wanted to flag with anyone in that category that you won’t be able to attend the match next week without first buying a public GA ticket (currently...

I read the article posted in the above thread bump and it got me thinking about where our club sits in terms of development. I’ve been a critic for the better part of three years, but I’ve only been looking at...
Well ladies and gentlemen we all know the BF brethren have more of an idea than the decision makers within the club (let's be honest chimps probably have them covered) so now it's time to put our collective reputations on the line to select our new and improved high performance manager.
I have...
How would we as a collective rate our club in those three areas? IMO, they are the three drivers of success in modern footy.
Adelaide have all three covered in spades with their amazing ball movement, talent on every line and they speak about Pyke as some sort of demi god. Brisbane have a...
Trade period can get a bit heavy around here so I thought this might be a bit of a fun/ topical way to ease the tension!
The premise of the thread is very simple and mimics the Footy Classified segment. Ask a question of the board, don't post your own opinion on the question and the first...
Where's the big fella at?
Last night we saw one mark from him, four of his six possessions came from free kicks, he had just one hitout and he would've made Witts seem imposing given how limply he attacked a few contests. His previous appearance v Carlton was worse.
He played a lot like a...
Things kicked off earlier than any of us would have liked, on a positive note though, when Adam Treloar successfully trolled Richmond and announced the mighty Pies as his club of choice way back on September 8 2015. Since then there's been a number of ups and downs and tantys thrown on the board...
Whilst on a study break I got to thinking about our list make up and best 22 for 2016 and beyond. Everything going to plan my best 22 ATM is shown below:
B: Ramsay, Brown, Williams
HB: Langdon, Reid, Scharenberg
C: Sidebottom, Treloar, Crisp
HF: Broomhead, Cloke, Swan
F: Elliott, Moore, Fasolo...
Brought over on a huge contract on the back of 12 weeks of footy across an entire career and now producing exactly what he did outside that 12 week period at the Kangas.
He's had 5 weeks at senior level after a thoroughly average month at VFL level prior to that. With just 6 contested...

It's now official, Nick Maxwell has retired as an AFL player.
Nick's letter to members and supporters below:

Rumor has it that our polarizing ex-captain is set to announce his retirement at a press conference tomorrow arvo.

I wonder why Keeffe and Young weren't included in the picture accompanying the article, odd.
Now we just need the on-field operations to catch up with the off-field and we'll...
My thread comes on the back of the thread Snoop Dog created with the dust having settled on Friday's result.
Today the boys would have been in at the Westpac centre conducting their reviews so why don't we do one of our own. Some involved in the media believe that the game and teams for that...
With 5 days to go until draft night most of the potential draftees have reached maximum exposure levels. Therefore I thought it an opportune time to gauge the thoughts of the board as to what your ultimate Collingwood draft would look like. We all have our favourites so here's your chance to...
After all the negativity of the past week wasn't it great to see the following performances from some of our younger boys.
Elliott: 16 kicks, 6 handballs, 8 marks, 7 I50's and 2 goals
Seedsman: 11 kicks, 13 handballs, 3 tackles and 6 I50's
Young: 13 kicks, 12 handballs, 7 marks and 3 R50's...
I've always held Paul Roos in high regard, but he's now gone up another notch with this article.

In 2000 we had 10 of the 16 teams average over 100ppg and only 3 fail to break through the 2000 points for barrier and a league wide average of 103ppg. Since then the closest we've come is 98ppg the following season. I'm the first to admit that it is extremely early on in 2012, but I just wanted...
Well the 20/20 version of Aussie Rules is over for another year with Adelaide coming out on top. Its now time for the real stuff to start!
We've looked a very different team at times so far with the likes of Ceglar, Seedsman, Williams, Paine, Witts, Mooney, Elliot, Cribbin, Yagmoor and most...
I don't know if many have realised but Collingwood is currently on fire in terms of quarters won. Over the past 4 matches we have won 14 straight (due to winning the last two against Adelaide) which is a club record and prior to today we had never won all 4 quarters in 3 or more consecutive...
Greetings ladies and gentlemen today I have a nice simple quiz for you featuring the St Kilda football club. As we all know this club has a sad sad history of failure and today we may well discover some of the more obscure facts about this pathetic football club. So lets get started.
Q1)...
This saturday I'll be in Split and I'm absolutely desperate to watch the match, if there is anyone that can suggest a way that i can see it either online or at a bar in the area it would be greatly appreciated!!!
Was just having a read of the article on the Collingwood website regarding the fixture and found something very dissapointing in the last sentence. Apparently we have two home games at Etihad in 2010 and they are against West Coast and wait for it WESTERN BULLDOGS!
Why on earth are we playing...
Fellow AFL fans I'm conducting a questionaire for a university subject. The questionaire is based on the introduction of Free Agency into the AFL.
Could anyone interested in filling out the questionaire please pm me their email address and I'll have it sent out to you by Sunday evening.
