Throw Caution to the Wind

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Easier said then Done

Much easier than for the 14 teams who haven’t made the preliminary final

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Never mind Richmond, we have to make it first. And so do they.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

I know I’d have the last quarter of last years Grand Final on repeat at the Club.

Not sure what better motivation they could have than that

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Win

I like it, nah, I love it.

It’s beauty is it’s simplicity.

 

[Prestigerrycomo]

No not the worst ever - those early crows supporters were imbeciles and ratbags - I went to the first two Pies games over there and left the ground wondering how they managed to breathe and walk at the same time.

True troglodytes.

Can agree the worst supporter comment I've ever seen was in Adelaide when we won there in 2012 and an adelaide supporter said to me on the way out "I hope your plane crashes on the way home"

• I respect the other threads stating that supporters have a fear of losing another Grand Final. I have sat through 13 Collingwood Grand Finals live at the G for 2 wins, 2 draws and 9 losses.
  
  You know what stuff it. Throw caution to the wind. We are Collingwood. We are two wins from a Premiership. Bleed Black and White and go in having no fear. This team can conquer any of the rubbish those other 5 sub standard teams throw up. A couple hundred minutes of great footy and we are Premiers. Bring it on.

  Well said, had goosebumps reading this!

The same 13 I’ve watched, I was a bit hesitant at first but I’m with you now. 2 more wins!

I agree.

No fear.

 

[MagpieJoel]

I fear Richmond.

But I agree, stuff it. Our boys can write their own history. Who cares about other narratives?

**** Richmond.

 

[Cyclops]

Go pies!

We need words of inspiration for the boys!

Once more into the breach dear friends!

The only thing we have to fear is fear it self!

We cannot choose the times in which we live, we can only choose what to do with the time we are given.

My neck, my back, biff the Tigers til they crack!

Yer a wizard, Jaidyn!

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Phil Carman on fire off the shoulders of Vic Park. I've seen Daicos glittering in the dark near home team's race. Now all these moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. Time to fly.

I totally agree with all the sentiments re Adelaide/Richmond supporters in my life. But I also gotta admit that I wouldn't put this sort of thing past a certain group of Pies supporters that I seem to run into most times I attend the MCG lol

Groups yes I agree but you haven't truly witnessed the living embodiment of the infamous Troglodyte until you have attended a Crows home game - the entire stadium has the collective IQ of a sand fly.

"We're building a critical mass of elite talent.." - Derek Hine interview 2014 (after the Beams trade)

Starting to come to fruition... Bring on the prelim!

 

[foreigner]

Much easier than for the 14 teams who haven’t made the preliminary final

Plus the two teams that won't make it past the weekend

 

[yeee_haaaa!!!!!]

Bring the pressure and we can beat anyone . Yeah Richmond will be hard to beat . But they were like deers in the headlights for a quarter and a bit last Saturday night and should have been 5 goals down . We will sustain the pressure for a lot longer than the younger and less finals-experienced lions team , if we get the chance

 

[Good_Old]

"Carpe diem"

Shallow gene pool.

 

[sirlothie]

From great adversity comes great triumph! This teams thrives when they are written off.

 

[jackcass]

I think they're already included in the 14 teams who won't make the PF

I agree bring in Wells for Dagoey

 

[Vicky Park]

I dont care who wins the Geelong/Richmond PF next week, so long as its close and emotionally draining (like our 2011 PF) and they beat the living daylights out of each other (all within the rules of course).

Because if we get through the PF, we will win the flag. The Vicky Park lid is off. I've moved beyond fear of a GF to a new state of 'knowingness'. Its ours for the taking. And when we take it, I will think of a friend of mine who passed away yesterday after a long illness. She was a diehard Pies fan.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Is Aish ready ?

Could we see him enter the team?

If so then the maximum would be three changes

With Noble it brown unlucky.

 

[West Coast 06]

I will put this here. Just want to wish you all the best of luck for the rest of the year!

I was at the MCG last year to watch my team triumph. All the Collingwood supporters I had interactions with were the best of sports, before, during and after the game. Over the years I have watched quite a few games against your team at the G and always had fun with the crowd. You guys are great as far as I am concerned!

I am in football mourning today, as all bar one supporter group will be by the end of the finals. I hope the people that get to cry tears of joy are Collingwood supporters. Good luck, smash those Richmond fools.

"Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all"

Poetic. Here's my original submission:

If we make it to the grand final only to lose against Richmond, I swear I will wear Lynx Africa as my signature scent for the entirity of 2020.

That's it, I've had it.

 

[Mobbsy]

This has Richmond getting beat in the prelim written all over it. Just like last year they ‘had it in the bag’ until Mason Cox added ‘yeah, nah’ to his vocabulary
