^Lack of force?

He put Heppell on his arse.

Thankfully though he appeared to only get him on his shoulder.

Lack of force to the head. If there was any contact.

With the Heppell bump: No blood, no concussion, didn't have to come off the ground (iirc), no problems.

The young bump: totally unavoidable, two players going for the ball. no problems.

What a sensational game!!!

Really though it was going to be one of those days when they kicked their 6th goal early in the second quarter.

Just a fantastic effort to comeback like that, and basically dominate the rest of the game.

The engine room was just magnificent, and great to see Swanny back to his best. Now, if we can just get Clokey back into form, we are going to be damn hard for anyone to beat.

Young has completely won me over after that bump on that bald little shitman. You could hear it clearly up in the top deck of the Ponny.

Another mention to the backline. To only concede two more goals after that initial onslaught was incredible.

Who would have thought, 5-2 at the bye after what happened in Round 1?

Look out scum, we're raiding you birthday party!

No need to apologize, GreekLunatic. Most sane people thought we were gone too. At 40-3, I called it an abortion to trump all abortions. We were playing like sh!t at the time, and you called it as you saw it. Nothing wrong with that.

Go the Pies!

Agree, I didn't say it, but i thought it. Fortunately the players didn't !

Regarding the players, it was interesting to hear Beams say that they all admire the way Bucks doesn't panic, stays calm, and focused them at quarter time. It is all starting to come together for this team and this coach.

We won because we we are working as a unit, Swan won us the game with his brilliant effort today, but in fact, all the players efforts and their work rate and commitment to their role, no matter how small, was why we overran the dopers. Make no mistake when clubs play us they are up and about, it's their must win game. We are starting to have faith and confidence in the game plan and each other. What is special is that we are playing so many "inexperienced" players, that are actually playing like veterans. To use a wankervanyism, "I'm excited". Go Pies

What transpired today was unreal. I nearly nodded off in the first quarter and at 1/4 time I am thinking, early exit beat the car park chaos. 1/2 time I'm think what a qtr that was and we have them on toast.

That was a team win and anyone can be forgiven being pissed off at qtr time. That would rate my best ANZAC day game.

what a game!!! my voice is GORN!

Yep, the first quarter was crap. The bombers got some help from the show ponies but they also played some fast and slick footy and we were like deer in the headlights.

I was saying it's uncommon to come back after being six goals zip.

That comeback was pretty special. And Swan was on fire.

Special hello to anyone who was on level 2A of the southern stand with me today. Great view from up there and good spirit!

Bring on the SCUM!!

I've read 3 out of 8 pages, so forgive me if it's been mentioned.

How good was Goldy? Reckon he'd get the coaches votes.

Is the MCG used as a leash free area during the week?

Ray Chamberlain kept rubbing the ball on the ground before each bounce like it was covered in dog droppings.

Well done pies.
Absolutely stoked with that win.
I know it's very easy to say this now but even when we were 6 goals down I just had that feeling we weren't out of it.
Anyhoo I'm gonna get pissed and sing the Collingwood song in my Collingwood underpants with my Collingwood stubby holder in hand.
Go Pies
Damn straight Legman! Reckon we should all drop our dacks, loosen the tonsils, and toss back a few jars with you, in a show of solidarity and defiance.

Dyso

Shit yeah. Cheers Dyso. Winning games is the best but this is special. Not friggin Bruce special. Just plain old special. A proud day starting with a very proud morning , culminating in an awesome game of footy by our lads. Did I mention I'm proud? Yep I think I did.
Cheers all you friggin awesome Collingwood Supporters out there in Magpieville.
Go Pies.
Go You Good things.

Always a big part of his game, but his manic chasing and tackling has gone up a notch the last couple of weeks. Love watching him play.
