Wow

As an unashamed supporter of another sport I gotta say what a great night last night was.

The atmosphere was sensational and Collingwood's blistering opening attack on the Cats seemed to just intensify that. Sitting around people who I never even knew talking about how the game was unfolding, who was playing well, Geelong's insistence on hand balling and why it was taking so long for play to restart after a goal.

On the downside, I'd imagine a lot of those people wont be there next week. I've never been to an Aussie Rules Grand Final, so I have no idea if you get that same feel as I felt last night.

The train ride home mirrored what was happening at the ground. Lots of smiling faces and singing.

Great night, super win and now hopefully Collingwood can get up in the big one.

It has been a pleasure to watch this team grow from the late days of Buckley, where it was Daisy's and Pendles first season, for that team to even make the premlim back then was amazing.
If we win next week, my predictions of when this team would win the big one will be a lovely 12 months early

Simply put, even though that game was one sided, that was our game at it's highest point.

The crowd, the intensity, and the skill of one team over another, that was as good as a display from a football team and it's supporters as you will ever find on one night.

The Collllllllliiiiiiiinnnnnggggggwwwwoooooood chant was amazing, and it went around the whole ground, as some have stated, like only soccer chants too.

Just an amazing night, and one I'm sure most there will find hard to forget.

And yes, it's shattering that probably half of the Pies fans there last night won't be able to get in next week.
