Game Day Collingwood v GWS, Prelim Final 1, The G, 7.50pm, Friday 22 September

[sr36]

As a 2nd year player wearing a slim fit suit, that suit is only going to get worn twice - this year’s Brownlow and this year’s Copeland. He’ll be too bulked up to wear it after the coming pre-season.

I'd rent a suit if I was him, but I think he'll be able to afford a new one each year.

 

[No SPIN]

Not sure what I am more worried about ….

Losing tonight

Or winning and making the big dance and risking another GF loss. Potentially to Carlton.

These next 8 days have a large swing between good and bad available!!

Settle down mate - just focus on our inevitable elation and winning the flag by beating Carlton.
They are the only thoughts you need.

So hard to work right now. At least I'm working from home just want to chuck my Pies gear on already and leave. Come on Pies!!!!!!!!!! LET'S GET THAT W!!!!!!!

 

[The Royal Sampler]

It’s all about run-and-carry tonight, we need to short pass or handball out of the backline, transition through midfield and kick it over Taylor’s head.

The Swans did this to them and scored easily.

Alternatively put it short and wide to Elliott, McCreery and Hill.

I’m pretty happy it’s dry tonight, GWS are not the team I want to scrap with in the rain. Hopefully that’s next weekend.

I got so excited about today and wanted to kill as much time as possible so I went out to Doncaster and bought an iPhone 15 Pro

But I don't think it worked because I'm still waiting 3 and a half hours before I need to leave for the game

Ugh

 

[Football God]

Okay ffs nerves are back now.

 

[danielnajdek]

I feel sick

Me too mate. But it just means how much we care about getting the right result tonight.

The work day has been tedious and slow.

I’m largely unproductive.

I keep opening BigFooty on my phone…

[Kes1984]

Skipper must be going as well. Both getting fitted out.View attachment 1810347

Looking sharp

LOL, the same.
In the office and on the computer and doing very little.

I will have to have a big day Monday because today, I have done F-all

 

[Harry O]

Yeah, I don't think we should target anyone. Concentrate on attacking the footy and kicking a winning score.

That worked out well when we let Nigel Lapoin run around in touched with broken ribs in the 2003 grand final

 

[iGNITER]

Same here...

The last time GWS lost at the MCG was in round 9 where Collingwood thumped them by 65 points. Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Okay ffs nerves are back now.

Seven nails these hype tapes perfectly, they make you both nervous and hyped

 

[Chameleon75]

I just want a win, no injuries and no suspensions, thanks in advance footy gods.

They're a much better team compared to now, which is why the pessimism is there

Same. My workday is finished now but it was largely spent on BF today

Seriously, just looked at the clock, thinking it has been an hour.

F**king 9 minutes

Hahaha, same here - will be playing catch-up next week. God help my team if we win!

It’s a thing.

 

[swoop42]

Have they forfeited yet?

 

[Greenaicos]

If we lose, I am making/buying a slingshot tomorrow!

Hell I am so anxious, looking for good omens everywhere.

Before the melbourne game I had one in the back for the first time ever, been here 10 years. Was there for about 15 min enjoying some dry dog food. That afternoon went for a walk and got swooped by two Maggies, also the first time since I’ve been here.

Will do the same walk later.

 

[Exambolor]

I've looked through finals series from 2000 onwards and I don't think I've seen a single instance of a team winning the flag, after playing no home finals and traveling every week.

Yes i'm trying to find some good omens lol
