Thinking of John Noble, Taylor Adams and Daniel McStay right now.

You played an important part in this journey and it wont be forgotten.

What an amazing job by McRae over these past 2 years and what an amazing perfomance to coach your team to a flag on the same day you welcome a new baby girl.

I didn't even realise his partner was expecting.

A stressful finals series and running out Premiers is well worth my trip to Emergency.

AFL.COM "Collingwood's mantra throughout the year has been to play every single minute.

It's the mantra underneath McRae's uber-positive, open-door, belief-is-everything philosophy that has sealed them a premiership cup, coming to the fore when they needed it most".

I haven't posted in a long time but today is as good a reason as any! My family have been lifelong Collingwood supporters, but unfortunately my sister succumbed to cancer on Tuesday of this week so didn't get to enjoy todays result. Mind you, I'd like to think maybe she had some sort of influence over the result from the great beyond! GO PIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still can't believe it. I think I've spent the past hour repeating to myself "Oh my God, we're bloody Premiers!" :lol: It's still not sunk in. What an unbelievable year it's bee. It's so nice to see that the hard work put in by the players and coaching staff has been rewarded with our 16th Premiership. The joint most in VFL/AFL history. Nobody knows what the future holds and it's bloody hard to win the flag (we know that better than most fanbases) but you get the feeling this could potentially be the start of a dynasty. Exciting times and I'm just so glad we have Fly at the helm. We couldn't ask for a better coach.

CARN THE PIES!!!

Bloody ripper Pies!!!!!
Premierships don't come easy to Collingwood. When they come around it's special. It's like a glitch in the matrix.
Enjoy everyone!

Sorry boys, I let you down but I just couldn't handle the stress any longer and I'd rather watch the winning moment on reply again and again than risk the heartbreak of seeing us lose live.

That could have broken me for good.

Dreams really can come true and I've been dreaming of this moment for 23 years.

We are now the most successful club in the history of the VFL/AFL competition and once again we take our rightful place as the undisputed king of the competition.

WE ARE THE GREATEST!
Meh. After the years of heartbreak we all cope the way we can. It belongs to everyone who was invested emotionally, however we went on the ride.
