Channel 7: Collingwood Victoria's hope.

Who are most other Vic fans going for?

I can tell you WCE is now my second team lol. Fk I hope you win but my head says Pies in a close one.

 

[MKMatty]

West Coast will lose similarly to when they lost to Hawthorn.

Yes, because a result from 3 years ago is relevant AF.

 

[caloschwaby]

We weren't even expected to make finals and now we're the bad guys?

 

[Juddernaut08]

I fully admit I’m salty, but you’re kidding yourself if you think the people of Victoria want Collingwood to win.

Lets just say if it was Pies vs Anyone Id be going for anyone lol.

Perhaps not Essendon

 

[WWSD]

Hopefully the Eagles can win the 2018 Premiership, as then the last six Premierships will have been won by the Clarkson family.

2013: Hawthorn
2014: Hawthorn
2015: Hawthorn
2016: Western Bulldogs
2017: Richmond
2018: West Coast*

It is going to be difficult for them. People underrate how big an advantage it is for MCG teams to play on the MCG in a grand final.

And overrate salary cap advantages

 

[ppoiter]

This is more like it. Was nice to see some goodwill for a few hours but I prefer being the bad guy

Not Collingwood that's for sure

New oval being similar to the mcg should be a big help for them unlike last time.

 

[Smeg Head]

Because it’s our hone ground I assume we will be able to have the faux noise after each goal, our Metallica song etc just like WC had their light display a few weeks back.

You will wear your away strip and you will enjoy it.

You follow the Lions....

Definitely. I suppose we're about to find out how much it'll actually help them.

 

[South of the Yarra]

Collingwood haven’t lost to the Eagles in a Grand Final for over 121 years. We are home.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Pies by 28

 

[Two Eyes]

Doesn’t really matter who wins out of Eagles and Pies, football already the winner because the Tigers and their shit brand of football have lost.

The mighty West Coast Eagles mate

 

[The Nostradamus]

West coasts forward line too good for pies defence


Kennedy, Darling, resting ruck, Rioli, Ryan, Cripps and Lecras

Adelaide d North Melbourne
Brisbane d Collingwood twice
Geelong d Collingwood
Sydney d Hawthorn

MCG tenants defeated 5 times in the granny against non MCG tenants.

 

[IronMike]

So most of Essendon and Carlton fans are going for Eagles... the other half is split between barracking for Pies and not caring

"other half is split" ?? You typical delusional Collingwood flog. Everyone in Melbourne with a full set of teeth is going for the Eagles.

 

[SilentHunter_]

Simple analysis... but it always comes down to this - the midfield. Eagles get enough supply for their talls they'll get a big enough score to trouble the Pies.

 

[RupieDupie]

Gee Collingwood favourite @ 1.67

Not sure about that.

Say if young Eddie McGuire would pay $50,000 to see Collingwood win the GF. He has a bit of cash and this might make him happy, and he would have only seen them win ~2 GFs in his lifetime yet seen them lose a fair few (I don’t know how old he is).

What he could do is bet $50,000 on WCE (and bet a bit less for a draw ($2,500), and he’ll either see Collingwood win a GF, or win some cash.

The mighty West Coast Eagles mate

Glad there's no hard feelings from 92 and 94.

 

[Captivating]

I fully admit I’m salty, but you’re kidding yourself if you think the people of Victoria want Collingwood to win.

Are you going to attend the bronze medal game of Richmond v Melbourne?

Victorian media not presenting it that way lol
