Pies are 3-0 vs. Danihers in Grand Finals

[Piethagoras' Theorem]

About to head to the train station and I've got my 2010 membership cap on. Last I wore this cap... well, say no more

[Spazza]

Dropped my daughter off at a party in Heidelberg on the way home I saw a lone magpie sitting on a powerline, big deal I hear you say, this magpie was sitting on the street called McRea St

My omen was reading our prime minister trying to be funny this morning but more importantly realising he was backing Brisbane. That's when I knew it was our day!!!

[Cam]

So did the opposition leader fwiw.

Hawthorn thumped us in 1990
Hawthorn beat us in the last round of the season in 2010
Hawthorn unexpectedly beat us in 2023

That’s all I got

Hoping by 5.00pm saturday, that will be all we need...

It was! Woohoo Go Pies

I found a Magpie feather at the start of the year and put it on my desk like a talisman, and it didn't let me down.

[MagpiesTheGreat]

Does anyone know where i can buy a magpie as a pet? Thank you in advance.

Then I will use it as my source of omens

[eddiesmith]

My omen may be bad for the next time I go to the footy...

Our Premiership Captain came into the Club with the short back and sides.
His locks have since grown and reportedly are as soft and strong as a unicorn's mane.
Do his flowing locks possess Samson like qualities? Were they key in us securing no.16?

[MagpieWhisperer35]

here are some strange personal omens around this years FLAG!
I was born on 23rd
My son is 23
I just moved into no.23
Bobby Hill no. 23
I just went to the laundromat and the cycle is 23 mins
The umpire that signals end of GF 2023 is no.23
Its the year 2023 we win the bloody thing.
Is it really happening

In 1958 Collingwood won the premiership. They were rank outsiders and that is regarded by some as being Collingwood's most meritorious victory.

In the first game of the 1959 season Collingwood was drawn to play South Melbourne, the predecessor of the Sydney Swans. Before the game, the 1958 Premiership Flag was unfurled in front of the social club at Victoria Park amidst much fanfare. Collingwood was hot favourites to win this game but got smacked by South Melbourne 60 to 101.

Of cause, that has nothing whatsoever to do with tonight's game. Luckily Bob Skilton won't be playing.

Its Magpies in the garden for me. And I haven't seen one since the start of the season.

[Cakewalk 90]

More superstitious behaviour on my behalf than an omen.

I own four Collingwood guernseys and wear one on match days, either whilst attending a game or watching on television when they play interstate. If Collingwood are victorious I don't wash the guernsey, but leave it out to be worn the next game. My cleaning lady knows her position will be terminated instantly should she wash or otherwise disturb this guernsey. If Collingwood lose, I throw it in the laundry hamper after the game to be washed, and retrieve a clean, different one from the wardrobe the following match day to be worn. My question is, after a draw, do I wash and replace the current guernsey or not?
