fact: 14 other teams would like to be in our position

fact: Collingwood cant beat a top team, never have i don't think we will in 2010.

finding it funny reading WestCoast and Essendon supporters having a dig kind of funny. Didn't you both think you were going to make the eight this year? Both are absolutely terrible and do not have the youth in the next 5 years to get back to the top. Sorry but its true, so no point having a dig at a team who is clearly better than you and will be for nearly the remainder of the decade.

Geelong will win the flag this season. no one will stop them.

One quarter of bad footy against geelong and the saints pretty much cost us, you can do that against any other side in the comp and get away with a win, against these 2 you need 4 quarters.

Beaten possibly 4 other top 8 "contenders" (hawkslol, carlton, bulldogs and freo) so i think we are goign fine.

pies won it woulda been , geelong threw it and are waiting for the business end of the season to show their stuff

pies lose and its "pies are pretenders"

Geez, not one person has actually contributed a fact outside of the OP. You're all expressing your own personal opinions.

In all seriousness, I am happy to discuss this with anyone, if they're willing to be mature about it and provide facts to counter-act the OP.

So far, a whole lot of trolls, and no substance have been the majority of replies, so I'm still happy. Cheers.

Fact - Collingwood still sits equal first on the ladder, and comfortably in the top 4.

Fact - Collingwood is still the 2nd favourites for the flag.

Fact - Collingwood was beaten by the best side in the AFL in Round 9.

Fact - Collingwood kept Geelong under 100 points for only the 2nd time this year. (Carlton was the first in their victory over the Cats)


Anyone else care to share facts? Or just your own personal opinion?


Main fact would be we failed to stand up under real pressure. Not much good being happy with that, no matter how you butter it.

Fact Mick Malthouse made Massive Game plan Blunder to Defensive.
Opinion I rate collingwood a huge chance for finals success but they have to take good teams on.

Some people are seriously struggling with the difference between an opinion and fact here,

Fact - we are 7 wins - 2 losses after 9 rounds
Fact - every other side except Geelong would like to be the same
Fact - Geelong are the same
Yes we got beaten by Geelong in a round 9 match, Calton beat Geelong does that mean Geelong are shit also.
Every team has to lose a match and we got beaten by 36 points (hardly a flogging) by the best team in the comp.
Pretty sure we will be there in late Sept. So will Geelong but most of the comp wont be, so before you write us off, check out your own team.

Fact - Collingwood still sits equal first on the ladder, and comfortably in the top 4. Actually your second on the ladder not equal first

Fact - Collingwood is still the 2nd favourites for the flag. Again you are second

Fact - Collingwood was beaten by the best side in the AFL in Round 9. You are right Collingwood was beaten by the best side in the AFL, again you are second

Fact - Collingwood kept Geelong under 100 points for only the 2nd time this year. (Carlton was the first in their victory over the Cats). Second again. Carlton were the first.

Anyone else care to share facts? Or just your own personal opinion?
It looks we are in agreement Collingwood are second and even the ladder agrees. Big Whoop!

The other FACT is that a lot of Collingwood players go missing in big games! FACT.

Were was Davis, Thomas, and Didak?

Okay? And your point? Exactly, we're second on the ladder and we're second favourites for the flag. I didn't realise it was unacceptable to be in that position. I'm sure there are 13 other AFL clubs that would love to be in Collingwood's position at 7 and 2.

Alot of players go missing in big games is fact? Errrr, thats just your opinion buddy. I'd be checking the dictionary for a definition because too many people on here obviously don't understand the difference between fact and their own opinions.

I'm happy with the facts, because they're concrete.

What any else's opinion may be, means jack shit.
