We prevented a Richmond threepeat.

I'm sure their supporters are shattered right now.

Yes, we stuffed up a 3 peat, for the bastards, that's some consolation, I still rate that PF win over them as one of our finest hours, one of ten best wins I have ever seen from us, in my memory bank. And I go back to late 1960s footy. I will watch it over summer, gives me glee.!

Yeah I am certainly glad I barrack for Collingwood at the moment rather than Richmond.

The only team who derails our chance of Back to Back by bringing in a succession plan the month after we win a Grand Final.

^ I nearly choked on my coffee, we won the 2009 flag!? Shit I completely missed that. Or was it the 2008 flag because it wasn’t even after 2009.

Don’t let the facts get in the way or it might spoil your story.

Dusty was injured (lame). They are a 10 goal better side when he is fit. He is that good!

By the way, i know we have all forgotten because its been such a long time, but De Goey is also that kind of a talent!!

It's true.

They would have beaten West Coast.

It's kind of nice to know we stopped that, but sheesh we really needed to hold on last year to make it perfect.

I didnt think the Tigers we able to do it a month or two ago. The won enough to be top 4 and look at them now.

It’s officially cricket season and we can put 2019 behind us.

Let's face it, they probably would have won it from outside the top 4 if need be. Best team of the finals series by a long shot.

Had silly Hawkins played in that PF, when the Cats where four goals up, things may have gone different in that game though, Confused

Gosh and we would have been able to beat the Cats too. I'd feel sick if the Cats got up and beat GWS after we lost by 4 points.

I don't begrudge Richmond anything. They take their chances and cash in. Unlike our sorry finals history.

Sour grapes Collingwood supporters should be demanding more from OUR club rather than belittling the success of others.

Anyone claiming credit for derailing their threepeat only needs one stat to paint the real picture:

Collingwood: 2 flags in 60 years.

Richmond: 2 flags in three!

Old Jack Dyer will have one over Louie the Lip in heaven, that's for sure.
