I might be finally able to watch 2018 now, this lessens the pain. Best since then too
Does anyone know when and where they’re going to present the players tomorrow

I’m trying to decide what’s best from this season:
1) we win premiership
2) Carlton finish with nothing
It’s a tough one.

I thought this was going to end with ".....and i named her Daicos".
Exactly my question

So good. Go Pies! I love this club and every Pies poster on here!!!
The long range goals to JDG, Crisp and Sidebottom were game changing. As were Bobby’s efforts…. All made the difference imo

Congratulations!
You can order a Collingwood themed birth certificate (a decorative one on top.of the official one). I did for my boy a couple of years ago. Can't remember how much it was but it wasn't too much if I remember correctly.
Something for their bedroom wall!

5 bourbons in and he’s the one I’m happiest for. Love all the boys but after 2018 having a quiet one how good was he today. That goal from outside 50 extraordinary. Won the game for us

The Markov story got truly remarkable today. Inside 12 months he's gone from a discard looking for a QFL team to play for to wearing a premiership medal for the greatest club in the land..

To everyone complaining about the advantage” … Guess what, you’re right. It wasn’t advantage. But SUCK IT. Winner writes history. COLLINGWOOD 2023 BABY.

Incredibly difficult post to make while it's still raw but congratulations to all of you and your club on a fantastic season and Grand Final. The best team all year for mine and I take solace in knowing we weren't too far off.
It was a cracking game and while it'll be difficult to re-watch it for me, you guys will have the pleasure of savouring it for years to come, so enjoy it. You have an amazing coach, a captain who speaks very eloquently (and seems like a great man) and a team that has an amazing culture.
Losing sucks, losing a close game sucks even more but truthfully when the opposition is as good as you guys were, it's hard to not just tip your hat in admiration. Bobby Hill was electric and a worthy Norm Smith winner, congrats to him.
Lastly, every single close GF is going to have controversy. 2002 had plenty that went the Lions way (Rocca's goal, missed hold on Tarrant then hold on Lynch). The advantage call is irrelevant to the final result for me, I felt we had our fair share of calls on the day but could never get control of the game outside of a patch in the 2nd quarter.
Deserved Premiers, congratulations and while history says rematch GF's are rare, I do hope one is on the cards for 2024. Enjoy.

Steele may not have been Norm but I think he has finally broken through popular perception with that performance and elevated himself to comfortably sit at the same table as Pendles and Swanny.
Looked cooked a few years ago too.

Seriously, that felt like a game that deserved a shared victory, I felt bad for y'all you played your hearts out.

I’ve got no words, that was an absolutely insane experience. Never, never, never have I felt so much joy in the win … better than 2010 and it even pips the 1990 win.
Holy f$&#, WE DID IT!!!!!!

The poignancy of the win took a long time to sink in because these close finishes leave me wondering if we actually won or not. I tended to concentrate on the guys I thought were holding us back today, but over the 4 quarters, the efforts of Crisp, Cox, Pendlebury, Quaynor, Markov, Hill, Cameron, Mitchell and others became too obvious to ignore. Love the way we bounced back when Brisbane jumped ahead in the final quarter. Really proud of the boys!
