The only reason Collingwood get to play the Anzac day match is because Australians need to know who the prison bar wearing enemy is.

Most of Collingwood's flags in the 20s, 30s and 40s should be Bradbury as almost all VFL clubs sent most of their players off to war, but draft dodging Magpies were so selfish and gutless they kept all of their Mummy's boys homes and thus won most of their flags against mostly teams comprised of teenagers and cooked old farts.

Yeah those white feather cowards should have the "premierships" stripped. There were a few seasons Geelong didn't even play because they were too busy fighting for the VFL to remain Australia's premier code.
Ron Barassi Jnr made it his life mission to destroy Collingwood in every chance he could get (because his father Ron B Snr lost his life in the first world war and Collingwood were notorious draft dodgers)
Anzac Day game morally should be played annually between Melbourne and either the Swans (South Melbourne) or Geelong, cause those clubs had the most players who lost the most players (heroes) serving our country during both world wars.
Gotta bite the enemy heyMaybe they didnt make it into the army due to medical issues, like "no teeth" etc...
Guys be nice. I am sure Collingwood had lots of fan casualties during the ward but they just couldn't be identified from dental records.Maybe they didnt make it into the army due to medical issues, like "no teeth" etc...

Follows the poms when Aussies are losing tooThis is the exact reason why the Dreamons won 9 of their 13 flags from 1939-1959 but strangely you don’t have a problem with that
Aren’t you the campaigner who called the diggers at Gallipoli “cowards”?
Whateley will be pretending to be diplomatic while having a massive (for Gerard) erection under the desk.That's a bloody good point. I reckon we could get Robbo ranting on about it on 360 with enough encouragement. That's my mission for the next 6 months.
The only draft the Wobblers don't dodge is the AFL National Draft.

Weird that they're only one flag behind a powerhouse like Collingwood since 1959 eh?
So they’re leas successful than a club which has underachieved… Yeah you really got me there
Nothing to say about them winning 9 flags during and following WW2??
Collingwood was one of only four clubs that kept playing all the way through the First World War.
That Melbourne won flags during the war years is actually remarkable given the number of Demons players that died during the war effort
Thoughts on Collingwood's 8 following WW1 and 2 following WW2?

Way to denigrate all the soldiers who served and were injured or who served and were lucky enough to return in one piece. Their efforts not worthy enough for you
Geelong missed a few seasons because of the war effort (similarly during WW1)
Unlike Collingwood
Yes similarly in that they missed seasons during war time.WW1 they missed 1 season because they didn’t have enough players to field a team out of a city 1/10th the size of Melbourne
WW2 they missed 2 seasons because travel restrictions between Sleepy Hollow and Melbourne mesnt their supporters couldn’t attend games played in a Melbourne. Not their players
So not ‘similarly’
And Carlton. And Fitzroy. And Richmond. But don’t bother mentioning them
