Oh Pies, what a performance.
1 goal against you for 2 and a half quarters and you still couldn't win.
I don't mean to gloat, but it's great beating Collingwood, especially like that.
I was sitting next to a typical Collingwood bloke yesterday, You know the sought, loud, one-eyed etc,
He was quite chatty, going on about how Sav was useless and stuff like that, until midway through the third quarter when his mood suddenly changed from one of friendliness to one of absolute cockyness, at this point the score was 7 goals to 1, I guess he had every reason to think this way, surely they couldn't lose from this position.
Geelong got a couple of goals back and I made mention to an elderly Geelong supporter sitting behind me that 'Geelong were in the same position last year against Collingwood and won'. I was trying to keep positive, still thinking we had no hope.
On hearing this comment the magpie fan said, 'we're better than last year, there's no way you can win, you've got no hope', this with the margin 26 points and the day getting better weather-wise by the minute, I stayed quiet and didn't argue with him.
From that moment on, Geelong kicked 3 in five minutes to trail by only 10 points at the finals change. They would go on to kick 7 of the last 8 goals and snatch it.
At the end of the game, I turned around to see that he had vanished into thin air as soon as the siren went. UHHHHH.......
What gives Collingwood supporters the right to be so cocky, especially mid way through the third quarter with only 4 and a bit goals the difference.
What gives some, not all Collingwood supporters the right to think that they have it over everyone, I'm sure Eddie would have been laughing in the superbox thinking about percentage.
They bag North because their supporters don't turn up. Why would they bother, they know their team is going to be in the finals every year, thats when they turn up.
The say Essendon supporters are arrogant, they have every right to be, their team is super.
They give StKilda supporters hell because their side has lost a few games, at least StKilda has been in the finals more than Collingwood recently.
And the bagging the Geelong supporters were receiving yesterday was a sight to see.
Geelong could not have played any worse, it is physically impossible. Yet they still won, that represents character and guts, something Collingwood is yet to master both on and off the field.
The fact remains, Collingwood's team is CRAP, when will their supporters ever learn.
There is still nothing sweeter than beating Collingwood.
THE END
