Personally, I rue the loss we had earlier in the year.

We have slowly snuck up on levelling the win-loss ratio. and the day we get back in front will be one sweet day.

That was one of the most miserable efforts I have ever seen Collingwood put in on a football field. I went to every game in 1976 and I was never as frustrated then as I have been, repeatedly, this year. Imagine letting that rabble kick 15 goals against us! The fact they could only kick 6 goals this time speaks eloquently of how poor Collingwood was in that earlier encounter.

Well boys and girls, it's that time of year again; as we try to square up the old ledger that has been out of balance for over 35 years...

I still think of the shattering GF losses of 70 79 81 to these mongrels at least once a month, maybe more, it still rankles me. I hate and despise the fiends with every inch of my being, I utterly loathe them and their moron fan base. I hope we pulverise them this week, and congrats to old MM for buggering them up for his tenure there, resulting in the fact the pricks now have two more wooden spoons than us, for NO flags. LOL

on the 125th anniversary of our first game ever (in the then VFA) against Carlton, let's not forget that they won that game. :x

We honoured that by letting them flog us in 1992.

Lest we forget.

Played: 253

Won: 123

Drawn: 4

Lost: 126

In our last 25 matches we have won 17.

The 1990's was a disaster going 6-13.

We really need to win this one as we only have them once this year.

The loss in round 7 last year along with the 2 losses in 2012 really stand out. The 2 losses in 2008 also don't sit well with me.

^ So yeah, to level the win-loss ratio sooner rather than later, we'd need to win this week and hope to get them twice in 2018 for 2 wins.

Going 17-8 in our last 25 tells me that we'll overtake them soon, but I don't want to wait much longer.

Please get this done Pies! (And once you have it, keep it).

Thread about masturbation?

I have a love/hate relationship with it but calling ones penis the old enemy is a bit much.

That unexpected loss early in 2016 really stuffed us the ratio back in their favour.
We would have be shooting for the square up tomorrow.
