Round 14 - Collingwood

[waterfowl]

A victory on Saturday will defy Sydney's historical home game record against the Pies.

Collingwood are very likely to make the finals this year.Since the Swans have come to Sydney in 1982, Collingwood has made the finals a total of ten time, 1984, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1992, 1994, 2002, 2003, 2006, and 2007. Only once all of those ten seasons has Sydney managed to win a home game, that being in Round 5, 1989, when they won at the SCG 77 to 66. Collingwood have won all of the other 8 games played in Sydney.

These interesting stats mathematically increases the probability of us winning...enormously... C'MON THE SWANS

So that means the Pies more than likely won't make the finals this year after they lose on Saturday night!

Not quite, but probably. In the years since 1982 that the Pies have NOT made the finals, their Sydney record is 4 wins and 12 losses. They last won a game in Sydney in a year that they didn't make the finals in that classic Round 4 game in 2000 when Anthony Rocca kicked a winning goal close to the final siren.

Mullumbimby - difficult to get to the footy from here too, although there's the Gabba.
