I recon Collingwood likely to win GF (assuming they make it and there are no guarantees), however any team that makes the GF (esp Geelong) is a decent chance to win...we only need look back to Hawthorn v Geelong. I say that on the proviso that injuries etc don't cruel either finalist.

Yes, I agree there are some "feral" Collingwood supporters...that holds true for any team. They just seem to really announce themselves if they happen to be 'Pies supporters...and yes I am one!:D

Edit: yes Collingwood supporter but not a feral one :D and I have my closed eye half open

Carlton Vs Hawthorn is Massive for Carlton. If Carlton lose the Eagles are more llikely to get 5th place. Should be an interesting game. Plenty of good Midfielders on both sides.

If Carlton lose then the Eagles appear likely to finish in 4th, with Carlton 5th? I assume this is your intended thought??

I don't think the 'Pies will cream the Eagles. While I hope the 'Pies win, I also recon it should be a spectacular, close match. With the athleticism of Nat and great ball skills both sides of the fence...here's to a great match.

top 4 is ours baby :D

now we can get creamed to the pies in finals week 1 woo

Thank you Hawthorn. Now we can play Eagles 1st week and their is a chance Carlton could go out in the 1st week of the finals. That would make me so happy!:)

Magpies played pretty poorly against the Lions last night although we had a lot of players out, had a lot of young players in and some of our big hitters didn't play that well.

To have 26 inside 50's in Q3 and only 5 goals isn't good enough.

Collingwood should be more worried about playing the Eagles in the Qualifying finals than Carlton. The Eagles ruck duo of Cox and Nic Nat can give the pies a nice headache.

yeah:rolleyes:...Jolly is one of the best ruckmen in the league as well and Brown can certainly play that 2nd ruckman role as well. Natanui rarely gets the ball and his disposal can often be poor.

Did you remember last time we best WCE? tbh if we didn't let wce get a few goals in "kunk time" then we would of beaten tham by 80 points.

Would have to dispute that. He gets the ball a lot, particuarly for a ruckman. Rarely given the ball, probably because his disposal can be poor.

And as a WCE fan, I'd be expecting the pies to flog us in the first week.

So the Colliwobbles are back.. Injuries, suspensions.. Bodes well :p

GOOD OLD COLLINGWOOD FOREVER!

Seriously. Eagles were gallant in defeat but it was nicely fought out by the Pies.

Many of our boys were quite under done today. Glad they have a week off now to recuperate.
