Yep, too early to be thinking about the Grand Final. Hopefully we can do that after today's game.

Here's one for the omen conscious.

GWS made the PF in both 2016 and 2017. Both times they lost to the eventual Premier.

So if we win today........

I have a bad omen - I can't get the stupid GWS theme son gout of my head.

I think that rainbow in the first quarter might have been a bad omen for us. Sydney after all is the Mardi Gras city.

That all worked well.

Oh well it’s something.........and we hardly win them so maybe it’s as good as it gets.

Yes, it is. Because the last time a Coronation was held , the Queen was in 1953, and the Magpies made the GF, an beat the Cats, in a tight match and it was called, the Coronation Premiership, back then. Now its 2023, exactly 70 year later, to the year, same time. So, maybe, just maybe its a good omen for us , can King Charlie bring home the Flag for the Maggies, time will tell, but you never know , hey. Heck im no big fan of Royalty, but if de ja vu can happen, then, as the Poms say, " Jolly good show ".

If there is a causal relationship between British monarch coronations and Collingwood premiership flags, then we should definitely hope that the monarchy staggers along a few years more.
We should also hope that there is a high attritition rate with monarchs, so that as many coronations as possible can be packed into whatever time remains for this absurd institution.

If so, we might have to speed up turnover in that role and get some coronations happening more regularly. Any 21st-century Cromwells looking for work?

Edit: D'oh! Great minds think alike, MTTM.

Hope you don’t have a “coronary” watching the game comrade
