OH YE BASTARDS OF LITTLE FAITH, never in doubt, LOL. LOL. Truly, a victory comeback for the ages, I think it has to be best Magpies comeback ever, since early 70s, v Saints, at VP, I was there, young lad, we were 52 points down, won by 7 pts I recall. Great win, how sweet it is.

Class will always prevail. The guy is a superstar and so experienced and clever. Even if he is not the one doing it his guidance leads others to play better. I hope when he retires one day having played his whole career for us, it is long in the future when he is ready.

They don’t mean it, just comments in the heat of the game. Miraculous win but it shouldn’t have been that close had we kicked better and the umpires hadn’t manufactured the tense finish.
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm ☔️

16 contested possessions, moved to play in the centre square when the team was desperate - just a (yet another) superstar performance - and that in game number 322 (one more than "Mr Football" managed). His detractors should give themselves time-out in the naughty corner.

I said at HT I had a “glimmer of hope” we could still win it despite the large deficit

Never completely lost faith. North deserve credit for giving us a cracking contest.

That was a lesson in self belief for the younger players and some fans too. The boys found a way when we we were well down for much of the game. Bobby and Schultz (who kept us in the game btw) were both great. Sidey, Crisp, Nick Daicos all went up gears the longer the game went, however we we lucky in the end probably.

OMFG we got smashed by the worst team in the AFL...oh wait!

7 players with less than 20 games, no DeGoey, Elliott, Mitchell, Pendles, McStay, Mihocek and maybe Cox.

Side by side, unless we are losing, maybe they should have a membership for that!
In the end, it's not going to matter how many breaths you took, but how many moments took your breath away

I think I've just got my breath back 20minutes later. Just insane this modern Fly team! So grateful to be 3rd on the ladder. The AFL must be licking their lips with the current top 4. We could see some more crowd records this year.

Now I really have one big concern out of this 1 point win over the Roos. who the hell do I vote for now in the MOTY! Bobby Hill you beauty. Pies fans everywhere how are we going make a Jamie Bobby MOTY call?
Ed Allen kicked our last goal of the year at the 58minute mark of the last quarter
