I think we all need to thank Eddie McGuire for rebuilding this beautiful club into a footballing powerhouse. Despite his knockers, the bloke has worked tirelessly for our club and he has been the driving force for the past 10 years. Because of Eddie, we have been able to be able to assert ourselves as the "trendsetter" in football. We ARE the benchmark.
We were the first team to have a real "player development" dept, and other such initiatives, that were made possible by the money that Ed and the board have been able to being into the club (despite the issue with the pubs). Thanks Ed!
Mick Malthouse has also had his knockers along the way. We would often read on here and in the media that "Mick Malthouse will never deliver us a flag", "Mick's game plan is flawed", "boundary line football will never win the Pies a flag", and other popular theories like "Mick has no plan B" and the like. But boy, he has proved his doubters wrong. Mick, with the help of his assistants (including our coach in waiting) has put together a game plan that has won us a premiership. He deserves respect.
Mick deserves our thanks and our gratitude. I hope Mick doesn't move onto another club, because I hope he is a Collingwood man for life. Thanks Mick!
Derek Hine (and his team of scouts and assistants), please take a bow. You guys are fair dinkum f^&king unbelievable! You have done some tremendous work with your talent identification. Thanks Derek and team!
I started posting on here back in 1999. I was just a kid, but a kid that was desperate to see our club have some success. At the time, I thought I would never see our club become a powerhouse again. We were abysmal, the club was in dire straits. I'm so proud of where we have come from. But you guys on Nick's have made it all worthwhile.
During the past 11 years posting on Nick's, there are been some fantastic people who have come and go. I want to thank all of you for making this place what it is, and for making our losses bearable (well sometimes, lol), while making our wins all the more enjoyable. Thanks guys!
Finally, thank you to the team for their mighty spirit yesterday. Starting with Maxwell, a bloke often maligned throughout his career and who was one of Nick's own when he came to Collingwood.
We (Nick's) were one of his original players sponsors. This bloke personifies the Collingwood spirit - Side by Side. He has fought for everything during his career. His never say die attitude is magnificent, and it has become part of the heart and soul of every player on our list. This bloke walks the talk and leads by example. Thanks Maxy! Thanks you everyone else on the list. You guys are now Collingwood legends.

I still HATE the Saints for thug O'Dea king hitting Greening, but them losing today eased that pain a little bit.
I HATE them for beating us by a measly point in 1966 but today's flag has erased that memory.
I HATE Ross Lyon for being such an arrogant pig about the entire Luke Ball issue but seeing Ball win a flag made me incredibly happy.
Lastly I remember me and my magpie mates being verbally abused and physically threatened by St Kilda ferals as 11 year olds at the Moorabbin ground. We have now had the last laugh you stupid twats!
I have been healed in the most wonderful way by my magnificent mighty magpies. What a team, what a club and what an awesome magpie army we truly are - Our AFL domination will be the envy of the nation!!!!!!!![]()

Love you pies!!
Our best players yesterday were all kids. Pendlebury 22, Sidebottom 21, Daisy 22. Unbelievable! We can dominate for years to come if we play our cards right.
I DO hear what you are saying but its a case of you not being able to empathise with my feelings because you didn't experience the hurt.
BTW, I had the pleasure of bumping into Magpie Greg at the Collingwood Family day today and FWIW, he too fully agrees with me on the above post issues.
Hey Mods, with this wonderful flag fuelling feelings of peace and friendship all around and all the great spirit that now abounds at Nick's, is it possible to waive or reduce Magpie Greg's suspension from Nick's? I for one miss his posts and incredible knowledge of magpie history.
Please consider this humble request with grace and goodwill at this magnificent time when we too at Nick's MUST all stand SIDE BY SIDE and put aside any silly past issues or events that tear us apart sometimes and embrace the Collingwood ties that bind us together against the hated, vile common enemy of all the other AFL clubs.

Glad to hear from you.... I met up last week with most of the crew we watched 02/03 with (HB, JD & co)... gutted we couldn't share the win in person... and as pies fans like to say, "There's always next year" for that!Mossi wrote:Dave I was looking for a post from you!! We have seen a lot of rants go under the bridge from those dissapointing GF in the early 2000's And the boys have done it without Bucks nor Ant on the field!! but I am sure some of thier know how was on the field!! Well my Mrs is upstairs and I am going to see that Alan Didak goal for the 47th time!!!
What a magnificent occasion it was yesterday. I was lucky enough to have been there in 1990 and at both grand finals this year. I was also at the 2002 and 2003 grand finals.
Yesterday was a very sweet victory. 1990 was more of a sense of relief that we had finally done it.
Here are a few special mentions.
Steele Sidebottom is a sensational player. As I may have mentioned before, he reminds me a bit of Kevin Bartlett when he times his crumbing off packs to kick goals. He is a beautiful kick on both sides, has a cool head, is clean and doesn't lose one on ones.
Alan Didak, has proven to himself that he is a tough bastard. Dids tackling and intensity all year have been first class and to have played with a torn muscle for the last 6 weeks is a phenomenal effort.
Scott Pendlebury - I mark him harder then any other Pie, perhaps because he is the most influential player that we have. What a superb effort in winning the Norm Smith and contributing so much last week as well despite your illness. Remember it was Pendles who laid the almost final tackle in the drawn grand final.
Luke Ball - pure class. No Lenny Hayes, no St Kilda? Completely blanketed Hayes and did the job superbly.
Ben Johnson - the Dennis Banks of 2010. Collingwood through and through, his kicking skills are precision.
Heath Shaw - his desperation and will to compete saved us in the drawn grand final. Now he has shown himself to be in our best again and stopped a certain goal from "St Nick". Great game again. Absolute star.
As for the rest of the team and coaching staff, this is the best Collingwood team that I have seen in over 30 years. The camaderie and teamsmanship of the players is amazing. It has been a pleasure to have seen almost all of the games live this year.
Go Pies, you bloody rippers!

Sorry Lazza I am old enough to remember the Greening incident all too well. Number 22 was my favourite player and I was gutted with what happened to him., but this is a new generation. The St Kilda players of today and even the club have nothing any more to do with what happened then, and besides, we're better than them. So let it go! I know John Greening has.Lazza wrote:jack_spain wrote:Let it go Lazza. Life's too short to hate any more.

BTW one important correction from me. Steele Sidebottom is only 19! Incredible future ahead.

Look if you were there at Moorabbin on that fateful day and your experience of the feral Saints fans was very different to me and my young mates, fair enough. You are a much bigger and better man than me Ganga Din! I take my hat off to you dude.
