For some reason I haven't been able to access BigFooty for the past week, so sorry this is late, but congratulations on becoming the 2023 Premiers. I enjoyed the game and thought Collingwood thoroughly deserved their win. Bobby Hill was worthy of the Norm Smith Medal, he played a great game...

Yep, teams tend to protect a lead rather than go for the killer punch. You always have a chance these days.

Heads up Pies fans. Jumped early but the way you hung in there and nearly won in the end was a credit to the players, the coach and your club. Also, I thought the contingent of fans who travelled to the SCG were amazing, never giving up on their team, even when things weren't looking so...

..... because he's a journalist. They're all self opinionated flogs so far as I'm concerned. Robbo just happens to be their king.

Hehe ... well done guys!!!! geelong losing makes up for the way my team is playing at the moment. good to see selwood having his usual sook after a loss. all the best against the blues next week :D

I've watched James Aish progress since he was a lad. He won 2 senior premierships with Norwood by the time he was 17. I've been a little disappointed so far in his AFL career, but Collingwood have got a genuine star in Aish. I believe by the time he's 23-24 he'll be an elite midfielder in the...

I wouldn't blame Magro for that. In those days they had that insipid holding the ball interpretation which allowed a player to throw the ball out in front of him just before he was about to be tackled, and there was no better exponent of this than KB. You either tackled him and gave away a...

Too good when it mattered most. All the best for next week.

Very pleased to see some real class in this thread. Hope you guys go top :thumbsu: Cheers

Congratulations guys, too good. I don't mind losing this one so long as you dish it out to Geelong and Carlton as well. All the best for the finals.

Hehehe!! If anyone is up themselves, it would be Patrick and all his media mates :) Keep on tweeting fellas .. especially if it upsets people like Patrick Smith.

Yep, I can understand you guys wanting to play Carlton in a final, you'd belt them. Then again, with my club's injuries, you'd do the same to us as well. Good luck in the finals, and please ... beat Geelong.

Re: Footy fan bashed at MCG I can tell you the psyche. Lack of discipline in their lives, both self and imposed, mixed with a cocktail of booze and/or drugs. I'm sick of this sort of crap in society, and it's getting worse because we do nothing to stop nor punish it.

Re: Footy fan bashed at MCG Five rock apes abuse two old ladies and then get stuck into a man with two kids. Real heroic stuff. Give me 5 minutes alone in a room with any one of them and let's see how tough they really are.

Well done Collingwood. You worked hard for it, you earned it, you deserved it ... now go and enjoy it .... you've deserved that as well. :thumbsu:

It is with sadness that I report the passing of Ian Brewer, full forward in Collingwood's 1958 premiership victory, a year in which he was also the VFL's leading goalkicker. He played 84 games and kicked 164 goals for Collingwood from 1956 to 1961, and was made a Collingwood Life Member in...

Just be impressed she even knows Collingwood are playing. :) Good luck this week, hope you smash the Cats.

I'm with you Pies fans, one of the good things in footy is Carlton being flogged. Lovely :D No reason why the Pies won't make their presence felt in the finals.

Well done to Leigh, and well done to Collingwood. It's an interesting rule not to name his as Life Member because he's coaching against the club. I mean, how does that detract from what he's already achieved at the club, and if Life Membership is inevitable, why not award it when he's...

You spend all that money on Judd, the toilets must suffer :)

Well done Pies, it's about time somebody showed the footy world just how beatable the Eagles really are.

I'm not a Collingwood supporter, but one of my favourite players as a kid was Des Tuddenham. He was tough, hard, and a very good player on top of it.

I believe you are correct with Twiggy, but the Collingwood website shows Murrie Batt as having No.4 when Kekovich was at the club in 1977.

I wonder if any of you older Magpie fans can answer these two questions. 1 What number did Sam Kekovich wear for Collingwood in 1977? 2 Ross "Twiggy" Dunne made a re-appearance for Collingwood in Round 20 1978, but his usual number 12 was being worn by Max Richardson. What number was...

As a defence, Rex can always plead insanity.

1 Damian Monkhorst 2 Tony Francis 3 Michael Gayfer 4 5 Ron McKeown 6 Paul Tuddenham 7 Shane Morwood 8 Jason Croall 9 Andrew Tarpey 10 Mark Orval 11 Athas Hrysoulakis 12 Dennis Banks 13 Alan Richardson 14 Shane Watson 15 Troy Lehmann 16 Mark Richardson 17 Doug Barwick 18 Murray...

I just want to take this opportunity to wish Collingwood all the best in the GF. I would also like to thank Collingwood very much for beating Port Power, and then the Crows, you can't believe how nice and quiet it has been here in Adelaide this week. It's been better value than laxettes...
