In isolation I agree, but in Collingwood's case I think it shows how well they've done to be where they are.

Are Goldscak and Reid included in that stat? If so, you take off their 300 games and they're back to the pack.

FWIW

Richmond
Collingwood
Geelong
GWS
Brisbane
Hawthorn
Western Bullies
West Coast
Adelaide

Mind you I am coming about 8th in my footy tips, being beaten by an Indian guy, a Chinese lady & someone from the Congo who has never even seen the game!

Yes Pussy Power....everywhere but on the field

I wonder what Chris Fagan thinks of the comments made today by Nick Robertson? At least you can't accuse him of rolling out the same old tired cliches.

"I'm looking forward to getting stuck into them on the weekend and so are all the other boys. I reckon they're soft to be completely honest so I'm looking forward to getting into them. It's just the rivalry. They reckon they're the team in Queensland and so do we. I think they take a bit of a backward step when blokes go hard at the footy. I hope they hear that too."

Good on him, got to get some passion going up there somehow

I like it. Bloody hell nothing wrong with that. Now go out there and back it up.

But of passion about your football. Good on him.

Unless the Crows were on top of that list then it would be justification

That's awesome! The issue is, coaches won't like it. The media will torture the bloke if they lose and we'll go back to cliche's at which time the media will complain that all we get is cliche's. No one, with an opinion, can win.

Cutting a heel promo, I like it.

Collingwood have been remarkable considering the injury list.

I for one knew we had a decent list but crikey the players and coaching staff have been great

Buckley's coaching group and Cameron's coaching group must be given credit for implementing systems that, like Hawthorn, aren't as reliant on personnel but are reliant on adhering to the system.

"heel promo"

brilliant

This usually back fires on me when i say stuff like this because it just seems to work that way. But i am reasonably confident about our game tomorrow...

Now i am expecting to lose by 10 goals
