    Champion. Should have been Norm Smith medallist last week. If I could have any player in the league on our team I'd have him.

        Isn't that what everyone thought about the Weagles?
        Let's hope the Magpies follow the same path.

          Lighten up. Football is full of bold and/or outrageous predictions. That's the nature of the outer.

            I was sorry that I didnt get to see Sooky cry. The TV cameras appeared to be avoiding him. Perhaps they couldnt get a good shot of him around a growig pile of tissues.

                I love how even a handful of my non-footy friends who watched both GFs with me now get it about Collingwood. You just can't find a soft spot for them even if you try.

                  I agree, Round 21, 2077, 72 years after our last win back in 2005.

                    Hope it isn't close because my 108 year old heart probably couldn't take it.

                            I'm hoping more for the 2011 GF.

                              He was magnificent. I never rated him before but I sure as hell rate him now.
