MINOR PREMIERS!

The 20th time we’ve achieved this in our club’s history.

70 points ahead in a dead rubber leading into the finals. Why didn't our boys try harder?

Jordy looking happy and healthy

Ginni has re-emerged as a danger



And we rat-f*cked the Bombers who have a hopeless summer before them

 

[AmericanMustard]

Reckon it could be another three glorious years at least before they look like winning another final

 

[eyeroller]

Did what we needed to.

Minor premiers- yeah cool.

Defensively looked much better and had a crack with our 2 best KPD out.

Didn’t mind what I saw from Fin in his half.

Ginnivan played like a man who does not want to be dropped for finals.

Onwards and upwards!

Clinical really. Absolutely tore the game open and then clearly shifted into preservation mode.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

A minor premiership…. Well done!
It all starts now, go get us that flag boys!!

 

[Exambolor]

Did what was required and this will help the confidence going into finals. I know Essendon are terrible but point stands.

Get Darcy and the rest of the crew back bar Nick for Week 1 and we’ll be raring to go.

Can I just flag that Fin played a half of footy and had the most tackles of any Collingwood player.

I quite liked what I saw from him- he had a red hot crack

They missed a few easy shots, and 2 rushed behinds, but to keep them to 3 goals without Moore and Murphy was obviously a lot better than anyone could've expected.

Can’t complain. Showed what we are capable of in the first quarter.

I hate byes.

Almost certain we’ll play Melbourne. If Port somehow lose to Richmond and Melbourne beat Syd, we’ll play port. Otherwise it’s Melbourne.

Gini just triggered everyone with that comment.

Got the comfortable victory most of us saw as a non negotiable against this Essendon rabble.

Now we prepare for a much harder assignment.

Congratulations to Fly, the assistant coaches, players, administration and staff for leading Collingwood to top position at the end of the H&A season.

What did he say?

The only issue with tonight's game is our kicking into 50. about 75% of our kicks into 50 was to the advantage of Essendon players. This needs to be addressed for finals.

 

[Pie thon]

Great defence without Moore and Murphy for 31 points conceded. Our 3rd 100+ score in a row!

What did he say?

Not much really, just said Essendon couldn't handle our pressure.

Fin was very good

A funny stats line - Eight handballs, seven tackles, zero kicks, zero marks.

Did his job well enough, especially seven tackles in a half.

"I'm not here to conserve, preserve or whatever, I'm just here to have fun" I ******* love Markov. What a beautiful man.
