Actually I am pretty sure we have only had 38 coaches.
Though a few had multiple stints.

Back in 66 it was just footy, no trumped up has been rock bands etc. But the best thing was that Collingwood lost three games in a row that day!!! Yes three games. The grand finals for the under 19s, the reserves and seniors were all played on the same day at the G. I was a young tacker then and my ...

I have stood for 2 GFs now (66 & 2009) - somewhat different experiences! 66 was in the old Outer - which was then replaced by the Ponsford Stand, which has since been replaced (makes me feel old!!). Some suggestions for this year's standers (I wish I was with you, I have not been able to get any...

I reckon its a job for Milney - he can yap away at BBB until he cracks (again). Should only take a quarter of so. Then poor Bazza can go back to the retirement home.

My office looks across towards the G. At the moment (2.11 pm ) there is a helicopter doing laps around the G - I can't tell from this distance if it is TV or Collingwood - probably both (Chanel Eddie). Nice to see that someone takes us that seriously that they need to spy on training from the air!!!...

It is also interesting to look at the Scoring Analysis ("worm" chart) on the AFL Match Day site.

Look at the patterns of the St Kilda games vrs the other games of each round & you can see the effect of our pressure.

Let's just keep it slightly ajar at the moment. The "home and away" looks pretty secure (!!) but we cannot become complacent. We are not in the GF until we win a prelim & we still have to make the prelim. Nothing else matters if we don't get to the GF and then win tha game - this means...
