Sitting there watching us, particularly in that 3rd quarter, you wouldn't have imagined that last quarter blitz. Then again we are the comeback kings, so shouldn't have doubted us to blow Essendoom away in 30 mins of footy.....absolutely brilliant!!!....

The day in totality was brilliant, with beautiful weather, fantastic pre game ceremony, with the national anthems of both Aus and NZ sung brilliantly, had goosebumps....

Then to see that quality of game, particularly in the second half, was a fantastic way to honour the day for all those who have and are currently serving. The icing on the cake for me was the Moore speech after the game. To have this fantastic athlete and person captaining our club, you couldn't be prouder.

Naicos getting the medal, the legend continues. He broke the game apart with his two last quarter goals. I think he may just win everything this year, in his 2nd year!!

Shoutout to Billy Frampton, thank god we have Billy. He has been a revelation, in any position he plays. Whether its down back, ruck and showed today he can also play forward. He has been a terrific addition. Hope Kane Cornes gives him an apology during the week.....

Bit of an aside, the NZ anthem was tremendously sung! The Aussie anthem was well done but paled to the NZ anthem performer!

They didn’t have the bloke who i think had sung the NZ anthem at a couple of the last few ANZAC days and he also does an incredible job.

Fly's presser (excluding Nick Daicos)

Great win, where does that rank in the victories you've had at the club?


Have you noticed as the game goes on, there's an increased confidence in the team that you can do this and win the game? Steele Sidebottom made reference to this before.


It seemed like in the first three quarters you're obviously winning enough of the ball forward of centre, but you were playing into the Essendon defenders hands a bit. What did you change up in the final quarter?


Billy Frampton battled manfully against a ruck duo that was dominant last week. How did you see his performance?


What did you see in the last quarter that made you think you could win the game?


You guys look super fit the way you overran Essendon. Is that one of your biggest weapons?


There's no time to relax with Adelaide to come in 5 days time. How will you prepare for that with the Crows having a 2-day extra break?


Your thoughts on Nick Daicos' performance, especially in the final quarter?


What happened to Scott Pendlebury?


Is it concerning that blood was streaming out of a sensitive part of the body?


Pre-game on the Fox Footy coverage, you showed the medals that you had in your pocket. Do you mind elaborating on the significance of them?


With the lack of talls, do you put it on your midfield and say 'this is what we don't have so you have to lift' or is it a 'structural plug in' and role play?


What did you make of Darcy Moore's speech after the game in his first year as skipper?


Nathan Kreuger was substituted. Was that an injury or just being mindful of his game time after a long stint on the sidelines?

Just watched this. It’s pretty clear that the external criticisms from social media are starting to get to Nick a bit. He got pretty emotional when he talked about his dad taking him aside and telling him that the only important feedback he should listen to is from the coach and the club.

Nah he had issues with Leigh Matthews. Leigh just didn't like him. I don't know what the issue was.

The issues were he’s diary he was publishing in the paper which wasn’t flattering towards the club and he was cooked as a player.

It's foolish to write this team off, especially after what we witnessed last year.

I had a gut feeling we'd comeback hard in the final quarter, but it would be left until the dying stages to pinch it. It's crazy we took the lead with still 7 minutes remaining in the final quarter.

Umpiring didn't help us, but Essendon were mostly the better side for the first three quarters so it's something Fly and co will have to get to work on and analyse in depth.

Nick Daicos is made for the big stage. I've never seen a player as young as him burst onto the scene and look so mature and composed at his age. Pendles is probably the last one I can think of from our side.

Frampton is underrated. He can ruck and play multiple positions without any issue. Due to Cox and Cameron's injuries, he's arguably become our most important recruit of the off season. Credit to him for filling the void as well as he has so far.

McCreery was a relentless machine in the last quarter. That burst of pace and the determination to hurt the opposition is invaluable. He was a real game changer for us.

Shoutout to Ruscoe and Kelly who held up well in the final quarter. A lot of pressure was on them in the final quarter, but they defended the D50 well. It deserves some acknowledgement.

5-day turnaround against the Crows will be tough, but morale is high so you can never write us off.

Injuries and umpire bias is all that stands between Naicos an MULTIPLE brownlows over his career.

Seems sacrilege to even suggest it, but Pendles reign as our best ever (IMO) is set to be a short one.
 
Doc1763 said:
I just want to acknowledge the following players who have come into the side as the injury toll increased over the past few weeks;

Markov, Frampton, Ruscoe, Kruger & Kelly.

These bloke don't stand up & play their role, we don't win.

But apparently, we don't have depth - like hell we don't!!!

Yep they've done well. It seems Fly gives players a lot of confidence in themselves.

A come back for the ages on one of the biggest stages. Just doesn’t get better than that (GF’s aside). Is that 17-10 now?
Click to expand...
Yep. 17 wins, 10 losses, 1 draw.

Won 13 of the last 17 Anzac Day matches (dating back to 2006).

Jekyll and Hyde said:
I’m not sure what 206 pressure feels like, but if you were an Essendon player in that last quarter, it must have felt more than that. Maybe 207 or 208?
Click to expand...
Pressure rating is usually 180. Anything over 200 is massive.
 
What a win…….best atmosphere since the 2010 prelim final.

In the last qtr with 60,000 screaming collingwood fans bringing the boys home. When we got within 9 points I noticed Darcy in the goal square urging the collingwood cheer squad to start the Collingwood chant and they responded. Gee we have the best and loudest fan base in the competition

ANZAC Day has become our game and most other teams are wondering how they can have anything remotely similar. You just don't get the same feeling with Good Friday footy. Only Dreamtime at the 'G would come close, although because there's no national or public holiday, it's somewhat lost. If clubs want to complain about Vic Bias, then they need to offer something. It's probably been more of a rivalry with Essendon, not Carlton recently because of ANZAC Day and the importance of winning the match.

Most of the cross-town derbys are boring and Showdown is only interesting because of the guernsey debate. West Coast might claim to have a huge supporter base but they don't have an annual fixture on their calendar beyond playing Freo, who may or may not be competitive.

And then there's the King's Birthday clash.

The Adelaide showdown is awesome.
 
Isaac Quaynor 7

Has effort in spades and isn’t afraid to use it. Was always there at speed and providing a physical contest.

Darcy Moore 8

Imagine kicking forward and seeing Moore waiting to intercept. Just so clever the way he works over his opponents to use his speed.

Brayden Maynard 7

Brings plenty of clever taps and work at contests and gains so much ground when it counts.

Nick Daicos 9.5

Groin, rib, no problem. Prolific, poised, potent, polished – what a quadrella. A serious player.
Trey Ruscoe 6

Played behind his opponents and got burned a few times, especially by Kyle Langford.

John Noble 7

Effort machine. Unfortunately caught holding the ball and then kicked out on the full to gift the Bombers two vital third quarter goals.

Steele Sidebottom 9

A creator, a feeder, call it what you will – remains a crucial cog in the Collingwood setup as he proved when it mattered late.

Jordan De Goey 8

When he’s on, he’s on. Steadied the ship with a crucial goal and his one-touch anticipation is second to none.

Josh Daicos 7

Involved in plenty of scoring chains for the Magpies

Bobby Hill 5

Showed the speed he’s capable of but couldn’t influence the scoreboard, having his first goalless game of the season.

Brody Mihocek 5

Has moments of real ingenuity but struggled to have scoreboard impact when it was needed.

Jamie Elliott 6

Has great vision and is crafty but has had his off moments in front of goal this season. Needs to sharpen.

Beau McCreery 7

Chipped and chipped away with his effort and then earned the reward with a crucial third-quarter goal.

Ash Johnson 7

Threatened with aerial presence in attack and slotted a beauty from the boundary before a huge goal in the last.

Jack Ginnivan 7

Eats up crumbs like a hungry hound. Skirted the pack and bobbed up beautifully for two goals.

Billy Frampton 8

Competed really strongly in the ruck and delivered a final quarter major to keep the Magpies in it.

Scott Pendlebury 9

Leave him unmanned at your peril. Only further staked his claim as Collingwood’s greatest with another prime showing on the big stage.

Jack Crisp 7

Delivers pace and is accurate when he gets the footy with disposal efficiency at over 90 per cent.

Tom Mitchell 7.5

His first Anzac Day - and what a one at that – and his contested work was just so valuable.

Nathan Krueger 4.5

Came in off a bout of gastro having not played for three months but did his job up forward rather than in the ruck. Subbed out in the third.

Will Hoskin-Elliott 6

Flew for a few big ones that didn’t quite come off but has presence in marking contests.

Oleg Markov 5

In a former life would have played on Anzac Eve but did enough in his first Anzac outing. Solid marks and output.

Will Kelly (SUB) 4

Came on for the last quarter after Nathan Krueger was subbed and delivered when he had his moments.

 
An ANZAC Day classic unfolded in front of a record crowd of 95,179 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground with Collingwood coming from behind as much as 28 points at three quarter time to steamroll Essendon in the final term and prevail by 13 points. The opening quarter was a tight tussle in the opening ten minutes of play, before the Bombers put scoreboard pressure on and denied the Magpies freedom with their ball movement. The Woods were quite wasteful until a late goal from Jordan De Goey on the quarter time siren kept Collingwood in touch to trail by 10 points at the first change. The second quarter saw the Pies hit back hard with scoreboard dominance and territory being the modus operandi. Off the back of this, the Magpies held a narrow lead of two points at half time. The third term saw the Dons make Collingwood pay for every missed shot at goal, and punished the Woods for defensive errors that resulted in goals, which was what enabled Essendon to get out to a game-high lead of 28 points heading into the last change at three quarter time. The last quarter saw Collingwood reverse the exact momentum it had conceded in the previous term to dominate field position and gradually started to convert their opportunities until they became seemingly irrepressible that they never looked back from there to pile on an avalanche of goals that overpowered the Bombers by 13 points. 7 goals in a quarter and winning the final quarter by 41 points after looking gone for all money was incredible and remarkable to watch for all that were involved.

Collingwood dominated most of the key statistical categories by surpassing the Bombers with a differential of +67 (393 - 326), kicks were won by +49 (225 - 176), handballs had an advantage of +18 (168 - 150), while contested possessions were up by +21 (142 - 121), uncontested possessions had a margin of +63 (257 - 194), and intercept possessions had a gap of +8 (67 - 59). Clearances were won narrowly by +1 (36 - 35), centre clearances were claimed by +2 (11 - 9, while marks were won by +41 (110 - 69), with uncontested marks having a reading of +42 (101 - 59), Marks Inside 50 were up by +6 (13 - 7), and Inside 50s went Collingwood's way by +19 (64 - 45) to cap off their day's work. Essendon won their categories from hit-outs by +21 (50 - 29), stoppage clearances were won narrowly by +1 (26 - 25), tackles were up by +12 (56 - 44), Tackles Inside 50 had a margin of +3 (9 - 6), and contested marks were up by +1 (10 - 9).

Steele Sidebottom (30 disposals @ 73%, 338 metres gained, 11 contested possessions, 19 uncontested possessions, 4 intercept possessions, 19 kicks, 11 handballs, 7 marks, 5 tackles, 2 Tackles Inside 50, 3 goal assists, 10 score involvements, 3 clearances, 3 stoppage clearances, 5 Inside 50s, 2 Rebound 50s & 1 goal) was superb throughout the entire game with a highly influential game on the wing that had maximum impact. Sidebottom linked up scoring chains from each mark he took or finding enough time and space to gather the ball at ground level and conjure territory from each possession he had obtained throughout the day.

Josh Daicos (30 disposals @ 83%, 216 metres gained, 7 contested possessions, 23 uncontested possessions, 14 kicks, 16 handballs, 7 marks, 4 tackles, 10 score involvements, 4 clearances & 3 stoppage clearances) was prolific around stoppages and dependable on transition plays out of defence into attack. Josh was able to be in the right spot more often than not to win groundball contests and made himself a marking option by leading at the ball to receive short kicks.

Jordan De Goey (28 disposals @ 79%, 345 metres gained, 13 contested possessions, 15 uncontested possessions, 13 kicks, 15 handballs, 5 marks, 2 Marks Inside 50, 2 tackles, 1 goal assist, 12 score involvements, 7 clearances, 4 centre clearances, 3 stoppage clearances, 5 Inside 50s, 2 Rebound 50s & 2 goals) made an impression on the contest with his ability to win clearances and possessions in a meaningful and potent manner. De Goey's damage ahead of the ball with scoring chains and the scoreboard meant he was always going to be noticed.

Jack Crisp (26 disposals @ 77%, 376 metres gained, 11 contested possessions, 15 uncontested possessions, 2 intercept possessions, 12 kicks, 14 handballs, 3 marks, 3 tackles, 1 goal assist, 8 score involvements, 5 clearances, 4 stoppage clearances, 3 Inside 50s & 2 Rebound 50s) won his own ball at the coalface to release his teammates out into open space or kicked it forward to equal numbers in Collingwood's forward line. Crisp was also prolific in scoring chains, where he won groundball gets from stoppages that contributed to scores.

Tom Mitchell (23 disposals @ 78%, 299 metres gained, 16 contested possessions, 7 uncontested possessions, 8 kicks, 15 handballs, 4 marks, 8 tackles, 3 score involvements, 6 clearances, 2 centre clearances, 4 stoppage clearances & 5 Inside 50s) played his role well by winning the contested ball and feeding the ball out from underneath packs. Tackling was solid throughout the game to deny Essendon progress in field position (territory/time in forward half), and by virtue of the same token offered Collingwood territory ahead of the ball in return, courtesy of Mitchell's secondary strength to win clearances.

Scott Pendlebury (21 disposals @ 71%, 379 metres gained, 10 contested possessions, 11 uncontested possessions, 4 intercept possessions, 11 kicks, 10 handballs, 4 marks, 3 tackles, 8 score involvements, 3 clearances, 2 stoppage clearances, 4 Inside 50s, 2 Rebound 50s & 1 goal) was excellent throughout the game where he had maximum impact with his possessions. During the last quarter, Pendlebury sustained an eye injury after having running back with the flight of the ball, only to receive an errant spoil to his eye socket which ruled him out of the game. It would prove to be a major turning point in the contest as Pendlebury's teammates commenced an onslaught that resulted in victory without him being able to come back on to finish the game.

Billy Frampton (15 disposals @ 87%, 201 metres gained, 28 hit-outs, 6 contested possessions, 9 uncontested possessions, 3 intercept possessions, 8 kicks, 7 handballs, 3 marks, 2 contested marks, 6 score involvements, 3 clearances, 2 stoppage clearances, 4 Inside 50s & 1 goal) was stoic and herculean in the ruck all day where he broke even in his ruck contests against Sam Draper and Andrew Phillips. Frampton gave his midfield adequate use out of the middle and stoppages, especially in the last quarter where Frampton did his best work. Frampton got the ball rolling with an excellent contested mark early in the last quarter, before converting his first goal for Collingwood and allow his team to continue and sustain momentum until the final siren.

Nick Daicos (40 disposals @ 80%, 604 metres gained, 7 contested possessions, 33 uncontested possessions, 2 intercept possessions, 21 kicks, 19 handballs, 6 marks, 2 tackles, 1 goal assist, 9 score involvements, 2 clearances, 6 Inside 50s, 4 Rebound 50s & 2 goals) had a day out and deserved to win the ANZAC Day medal. Nick was prolific as ever behind the ball with his ball use releasing teammates into better positions of the field for three quarters. In the final term, Nick was swung forward with a stint in the midfield thrown in for good measure, and was able to sneak forward to kick two telling goals to decide the contest.

John Noble (22 disposals @ 68%, 489 metres gained, 3 contested possessions, 19 uncontested possessions, 4 intercept possessions, 18 kicks, 4 handballs, 9 marks, 3 score involvements, 3 Inside 50s & 7 Rebound 50s) accumulated marks and possessions without any issues. However, his ball use on transition from defence was wayward or rendered ineffective when he was forced to kick long to a contest.

Oleg Markov (19 disposals @ 84%, 366 metres gained, 6 contested possessions, 13 uncontested possessions, 6 intercept possessions, 10 kicks, 9 handballs, 5 marks, 5 score involvements, 2 Inside 50s & 2 Rebound 50s) easily played his best game at the club by contributing to team ball movement at both ends of the field, by defending first, then rolling up as a high-half back that attacked half forward with real intent. Markov will learn to never handpass to the back of a teammate (Markov to De Goey) as it could've cost the team a goal. Other than that brainfade, significant progress was made by Markov in his bid to maintain his place in the seniors.

Brayden Maynard (19 disposals @ 79%, 435 metres gained, 6 contested possessions, 13 uncontested possessions, 7 intercept possessions, 15 kicks, 4 handballs, 8 marks, 3 tackles, 6 score involvements, 3 Inside 50s & 2 Rebound 50s) was terrific as an undersized key position defender on Sam Weideman. Maynard's intercept marking was impeccable, while his ball use rolling up from defence into attack offered another layer of protection for his team, aside from the horrendous kick-in that resulted in an Essendon goal during the opening minute of the third term.

Darcy Moore (17 disposals @ 94%, 207 metres gained, 8 contested possessions, 9 uncontested possessions, 11 intercept possessions, 10 kicks, 7 handballs, 7 marks, 2 contested marks, 2 score involvements & 3 Rebound 50s) came to play in the opening term with two crucial marks in defence, before displaying composed ball use and excellent captaincy by his actions and words thereafter.

Isaac Quaynor (11 disposals @ 82%, 269 metres gained, 5 contested possessions, 6 uncontested possessions, 4 intercept possessions, 6 kicks, 5 handballs, 3 marks, 3 score involvements & 3 Inside 50s) looked to play fearless footy at all times by taking the game on, breaking lines and moving the ball forward.

Trey Ruscoe (11 disposals @ 100%, 168 metres gained, 5 contested possessions, 6 uncontested possessions, 7 intercept possessions, 9 kicks, 2 handballs, 7 marks, 2 contested marks, 2 tackles, 1 goal assist, 4 score involvements, 2 Inside 50s & 4 Rebound 50s) had a tremendous second half, where he combined intercept marking, with forward creativity rolling up from defence. Ruscoe's kick to Ginnivan in the final term was brilliant and would've given him a lot of confidence.

Beau McCreery (15 disposals @ 93%, 303 metres gained, 5 contested possessions, 10 uncontested possessions, 3 intercept possessions, 10 kicks, 5 handballs, 6 marks, 2 tackles, 7 score involvements, 2 Inside 50s & 2 goals) contributed immensely to the outcome of the contest by being a conduit forward leading high up the ground before working back towards goal to convert both of his opportunities.

Jack Ginnivan (12 disposals @ 75%, 172 metres gained, 4 contested possessions, 8 uncontested possessions, 7 kicks, 5 handballs, 3 marks, 2 Marks Inside 50, 4 score involvements & 2 goals) had a mixed day in front of goal, but still had a bearing and impact with a couple of important majors.

Jamie Elliott (11 disposals @ 73%, 246 metres gained, 3 contested possessions, 8 uncontested possessions, 8 kicks, 3 handballs, 6 marks, 2 Marks Inside 50, 2 goal assists, 5 score involvements & 3 Inside 50s) worked hard for his possessions and marks up forward, but Elliott has developed a trend this season where he has been wasteful in front of goal. He needs to start fixing it from Sunday until the conclusion of the season.

Ash Johnson (10 disposals @ 60%, 148 metres gained, 5 contested possessions, 5 uncontested possessions, 6 kicks, 4 handballs, 5 marks, 2 contested marks, 2 Marks Inside 50, 5 score involvements, 3 Inside 50s & 2 goals) provided a constant aerial threat and marking option up forward, while converting two excellent goals, including his last goal in the final term which was a bomb from outside 50 that got Collingwood fans out of their seats. The Magpies did not look back once that occurred.

Collingwood's next game will be against Adelaide on April 30 at the Adelaide Oval. The Crows are in some serious form, so the Magpies have another stern test and challenge on their hands. Given Collingwood's ability to successfully overcome adversity and depleted personnel, there is much confidence that the premiership favourites will continue to have success. Having said that, every game is a different game, of which the players and coaches are highly cognisant of that fact once Sunday arrives.

I thought these were your ratings Jen, then realised they're from the Herald Sun (you're a much better judge of talent than they are FYI).

Kelly, Markov, Ruscoe and Crisp all underrated - some severely - in my opinion. They were all great.

Jamie, WHE and Quaynor were much poorer than their ratings, all sub-5 for me, and you could make arguments Hill and Checkers could have been graded harsher too. Just shows how much improvement is left in this team!

Not seeing much love on here for AJ. That goal in the last quarter was breathtaking.

And more love for our fitness guys, please. We finish off games with a head of steam. It happened last year and its happening again.
