Hey I’d rather be a losing Collingwood supporter than a winning Carlton/Hawthorn/Sydney etc etc supporter.

[John LEWIN]

I don't feel sorry for you Pies4shaw. Tata!

[Raw Hammer]

Only Coll could blow a 12 point final quarter lead at home vs an interstate team in a GF.

Bucks curse!

It wasn't the umpires ....it was their midfield getting on top of us in the second half.
It was their forwards marking more.
Stop going the umps.... the captain had a pretty ordinary game.
Sidey was beaten.
The poor backs were being bombarded in the last quarter.
We tried our guts out and we just lacked a little more luck in the last 5 minutes.

[Raw Hammer]

5 goals to nil at home and we blow it.

F me.

You can't go 5 up in the first, and take the foot off .

Great effort season. Really poor effort after half time . I hate to say it better team

[Raw Hammer]

And now, out of the blue, this squad has the burden of the Colliwobbles choke thrust upon them, after defying all odds and making a GF ahead of their time.

So farking predictable.

Look to be honest they had our measure after qtr time except for a couple of patches. Defence was brave in that onslaught in the last qtr when the floodgates looked like opening.

Funnily if Mason kicks a goal we probably win then Sheed kicks one out of his backside. Really proud of the club especially after Round 1 this looked years away. I am sure this will spur the club to bigger things in 2019. Hopefully we can have a better run with those f$$@ing injuries.

I am so proud of our club. Thank you Bucks and the boys for taking us on a magical ride this year. You were brilliant and not disgraced and I love your heart and guts and determination.

Tommy Langdon, you personified the Collingwood spirit today. How often did he repel a West Coast attack? Mayne also was an absolute tiger.

Brodie and Sidey beaten today, but they're part of the reason we even got there.

Brilliant effort boys.

[winpies]

Devastated. Absolutely devastated. Proud of the boys to get here through so much adversity. They will be hurting so much more than any of us supporters will. Side by side.

I don't think I can face WCE supporters over here they will be so cocky.

Bring on 2019

Go Pies!!!

What happened to Grundy?That was the worst game I've seen him play.He was beaten in every aspect of the game,rucking,marking,even around the ground he had no impact whatsoever.
