Certified Legendary Thread 🏆 COLLINGWOOD 2023 PREMIERS 🏆

[Bramax]

Zac Bailey was 100% in the protected zone and oppo supporters are going on about a 50/50 advantage in the middle of the ground, lmao.

I can’t believe they think they got a raw deal. They received 22 free kicks to our 16 and I thought the umps favoured the Lions in general.

 

[GoldenMagpie16]

I don't recall the 58 and 60 Grand Finals but I've bled through all the others.
64, 66,70, 77&77, 79, 80, 81, 90, 02, 03, 10&10, 18 and now 23.
This week I was oddly, anxiety free. It always felt right despite any Lions score I knew we'd dash, bash and crash the ball forward and score when we needed it. Great day - Go Pies

1964 we lost by 4 Points
2023 we won by 4 Points

 

[Bramax]

Yeah lots of peeps down on Framo but FMD he stepped into the breach in our hour of need and did the job required of him and all from a literally hail mary pick.

Harris Andrews dominated against the Blues. He didn’t today. Big Billy played a blanketing role and did well. Job done.

 

[Bianconeri]

It feels good knowing we can carry on like arrogant campaigners and be justified now

 

[VinnieB]

The 'expected score' must have had us 67 point victors.

 

[Brad Goodman]

That calm, peaceful feeling you've got right now? That's contentment. Or mental exhaustion, it could definitely be mental exhaustion.

Go Pies.

 

[Bramax]

Just got home from the game

YOU BLOODY BEAUTY WE DID IT !!!!!!!!

How was the crowd noise. Were the cheers for the Pies much louder or was it 50/50?

would swap his medal for Nick's?

Of course he would, he already has a pair (and should have won last year’s too)!

We were louder but surprisingly, not by a lot. It wasn’t at all like the Prelim.

 

[SpongePie]

The 'expected score' must have had us 67 point victors.

Wow!

 

[The Royal Sampler]

The 'expected score' must have had us 67 point victors.

Didn’t you hear? Brisbane should have won but didn’t, because of that time they were paid a free kick.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

I can’t believe they think they got a raw deal. They received 22 free kicks to our 16 and I thought the umps favoured the Lions in general.

How’s about Gardiner (?) ramming a player with his head and getting a free for it? Howler!

Also, Daniher gave a two handed shove resulting in a goal that Finlayson would have been proud of!

 

[The Royal Sampler]

what's worse than losing a Final in 2002 by 9 points? probably getting flogged in 2003 by 54 by the same team...

then in 2018 you lose a grand final with 2 minutes to go by 5 points.....

you hate football for 18 months but you have to stick with the team you love, but * it hurts, it hurts so bad

you then lose a prelim in 2022 by a point.it still ******* hurts. but when you love your team, and they finally beat the team that flogged them so badly 20+ years ago, there is no better feeling......

I remember sitting at the Jolimont train station waiting to go home back to Keon park in Sept 2002, listening to the same brisbane song getting played over and over and over and waiting for the train in 2002 with my Collingwood Brethren all in silence, hating life.

today makes it all worth it

Go Pies

2002 was the ****ing worst. We were the better team that day. Not on paper, but on the green grass of the MCG we were better.

 

[Dan Moody]

Just got home from the game, this day was absolutely flipping perfect!
Great seats right next to the umpires race on the fence, got hand slaps from all the boys as they went round on the victory lap, got a hug from Josh Daicos

and got to spend the win with my eldest boy. Even had relo's and friends text me to say they saw me on the teev lol.

Caught the last 5 minutes of the replay on FOX from Jordy's goal onwards.

As for Rockliff, Richo and a few other fkwits carrying on about the Neale play-on decision, where were your protests when he was getting Brownlow votes for shit games?

Love my team

 

[jerry springer]

2002 was the ******* worst. We were the better team that day. Not on paper, but on the green grass of the MCG we were better.

still my fave team of all time, lacked talent but just oozed teamwork

I even miss Shane O'bree and his helicopter kicks

 

[thebaldfacts]

Headed with 5 minutes to go and still won. Won our 3 finals by 2 goals in total.

Great effort Pies.
Finally won a close one.

Go Pies. Love the Club.

 

[spartan-magpie]

Particularly pleased for Sidey. Was just a kid for the 1st and has admitted he was too young to really appreciate. He will appreciate this one.

His and Degeoyes clutch imgoals were massive.

Steele was never missing that.

 

[docks]

I can’t believe they think they got a raw deal. They received 22 free kicks to our 16 and I thought the umps favoured the Lions in general.

In particular the first minutes of the last qtr.

 

[longyroos]

The best GF of all time and you came out on top, well done. After 2018 you deserved some luck and you didn’t just get luck, you said get out of my way I’m winning this flag. amazing

 

[Bramax]

Just imagine when Treloar and Grundy are off the books and we have a full team? Imagine what Fly will do then.

 

[Bramax]

We were louder but surprisingly, not by a lot. It wasn’t at all like the Prelim.

Cheers mate.

 

[Ulahoopski]

I'm waiting for another limited edition slab of Collingwood beer

I still have a slab from 2010!!

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Headed with 5 minutes to go and still won. Won our 3 finals by 2 goals in total.

Great effort Pies.

Go Pies. Love the Club.

714 is all the margin we had. But I’ll ****in’ take it!

 

[stormskye]

watching the replay and I still get nervous when Brisbane kick goals…
