No excuses for us not to beat them next week at the G. Their season is over and we have everything to play for (a home qualifying final).

Collingwood can still get a home final.

They'll need a lot to go their way.

Actually, they can still make the top 4
The umpiring in the last 10 minutes once Sydney had the run on was very poor.
Was that a blatant 50 to McStay right at the end ? Ran over the mark by a long way.

No they can’t. Too many top teams play each other. Best they can do is 6th, and they’d be putting their faith in North, West Coast and Richmond to make it happen.Actually, they can still make the top 4
It wasn’t a 50. Basically explained it on fox footy - the defender ran through with momentum and responded when the umpire called him back. McStay played in before he got back on to his mark.

Even if we don’t win the premiership, I would consider a minor premiership as a success given our start to the season.
Would still prefer a real premiership though.
can't stop on the spot.

Last year's GF, umpires pay a controversial advantage in the few minutes. North game this year, 2 Collingwood players run way over the mark and don't retreat.
It's all part of the game until it affects them. LoL.

McRae whinging about the umpiring in his press conference. Collingwood filth has seeped into him now.
Would the 50 against North have been paid if it was at the MCG?

Pies are taking this way too poorly for a team that won the flag last year.

Pies the arsiest premiers. BS their come from behind every week was not luck. How many games in the last 2 years have they been the best team on the day? Under 50% I reckon.

Media: "Sydney are once again flag favourites"

LOL at McCrae having a whinge and moan about the non-50 metre penalty and the umpiring in general.
When everything was going their way, it was because of how they practice "scenarios" and never through rub of the green with umpiring and other freaky strokes of luck. EG the outrageous non-50 that robbed North of a win against them
Suck it up Pies
Reminding everyone why they are the most despised club in the comp

They scored 8 points to Sydney's 32 in the 4th, you can't blame an umpiring decision for that lol

McCrae’s umpire complaint is very poor sportsmanship.
About five minutes before the McStay incident
Maynard deliberately took two steps to push the a Sydney shot for goal outside the fifty.
No penalty was called.
The umpire simply called him back.
Maynard’s infringement was deliberate and should have been pinged.
The Sydney defender was on the run and was umpired correctly.
I hope McCrae gets fined for this!

Sooooooo he admits officially that they have an advantage playing at the MCG especially in close games and that it affects the way the game is officiated... perhaps he should prove his altruism in this area (as opposed to highlighting any hypocrisy) by giving the 23 Flag to the Lions since the only reason Collingwood would have won was due to umpiring bias.
Or maybe just work out the home ground advantage of the MCG and give the opposition that much of a head start ... which come to think of it would kind of work to balance the neutrality the venue should have!

McStay is a very good footballer - his departure has opened up a spot for Morris…we have done okay.
