    Pies all over the Swans.

    20 inside 50s to 2! Imagine if they had a forward line
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Watching these teams struggle with precise sharp handballs really shows me how great we are at it.

    Just wait for the pissing and moaning about the Hannebury slide on Pendlebury, and the fact it was paid when Wood's trapping of the footy in the GF wasn't.

    The swans aren't what they have been for the last decade , I see them dropping away although I commend them on playing the kids.
    Collingwood just have no forward line except fasolo , yeah they have the ball a lot but just butcher it badly . The first qtr was keepings off,the figures show they killed them but a lot was little sideways passes. Stats can be very misleading and I think the pies are the experts at showing that.
    Bring back the biff

    If ever a team was going to kick themselves out of it, Collingwood are giving it a red hot go...
    Wake me up when we get to heaven, let me sleep if we're going to hell

    Good luck, for your sake I hope heaven and hell are really there, but I wouldn't hold my breath

    And we all found heaven - 2016 Premiers!

    Had 3 straight forward chances to pretty much ice it. Failed.

    I don't think I've enjoyed watching Collingwood win so much.

    John Longmire and the indulgent Sydney loving media pack have really put me off that club these past months. They can fairly and squarely eat a fat one, and may they lose to WCE next week and be 0-4.

    The umpire moaning has distracted the facts that Sydney don't have a lot of depth.
    Plenty of 7 to 10 games promising types, but the in between isn't strong .
    Collingwood should have been almost out of sight at quarter time, and will be interesting if they can mantain the rage .

    Longmire's whinging during the week meant the umps virtually forgot about holding the ball and incorrect disposal tonight, which resulted in a stoppage heavy mess - of course the massive beneficiary of that was Grundy and the Pies.

    Collingwood winning also reaffirms the misguided faith they have in Buckley - hopefully another 10-12 game winning season will get Bucks another 2 year contract extension.

    Thought the same. It appeared like a bombers v Roos game.
    Idiots.
