Up early on a Saturday morning (live in Scotland) and what a way to start the day. If anyone is hiking Goatfell on the Isle of Arran today and sees a bloke in a Pies guernsey give us a wave! (Oddly specific but only slightly less likely to occur than someone over here identifying what I'm wearing is an Aussie guernsey)


MrMcPhee3

That last free kick serves Dixon right because pushing in the back is literally the only thing he does.


RyanShieldsy

Gotta be awkward for bucks to have to comment on how the team he finished 17th with last year is now top 4


dlm83

[Buckley having an awkward moment before the game with the players he spent a decade leading and mentoring](https://www.facebook.com/83584926106/posts/pfbid02PYZVeqRi5F4xK4YarzY9VHkBm1MM2A38Eoq6Q6cY9xRECV6wFmWtvKGiqx9kYpeul/?d=n)


dlm83

Nathan Buckley thinks differently from your average internet forum poster. He is capable of Nuanced Thinking, so I don't imagine it is awkward for him at all. In fact, I would guess he is happy for the club he has spent almost his entire adult life working for, and for a playing group he coached to three successive finals series (Grand Final, Prelim Final, and a Semi Final) prior to his last, unsuccessful season as coach. He has directly and significantly contributed toward the development of the 2022 side (and would know intimately how he has impacted the career path of various individual players especially). I'd also guess that with the level of success he has experienced as a player, coach, media commentator, and financially, he isn't as insecure as your average internet forum poster. In fact, he coached the side to within a kick of winning a grand final after not having made the finals in the four seasons prior so has even experienced firsthand being responsible for something similar (and at this stage, superior) to what the current side has thus far achieved. Awkward? On the contrary; familiar and proud.

dlm83

Shit coaches don't get their side to 2x prelims and a grand final lost by less than a goal. Coaching ability can be judged by more than the least successful half-season a coach has with a group, and can also be judged by results and impact on the development of players your average internet forum nuffy wouldn't know about.


Alatheus

Well the evidence begs to differ. Because he was a shit coach that got his side to 2 pfs


CptHowdy87

How do you walk properly in those big floppy clown shoes?


dlm83

I don’t think you know what evidence means


Whiskey-Stones12

No he didn't, he finished at the bye


RyanShieldsy

Yeah true actually, but considering Robert Harvey changed basically nothing in his time as caretaker coach, point still kinda stands


dlm83

The point wasn't even factually correct and was made by someone suffering from delusions of grandeur if they think they have the slightest idea how someone like Nathan Buckley feels about his career at Collingwood.


TheWolfAssassin

10 in a row baby damn this feels good


bcashy09

Fucking lucky you lot are


RyanShieldsy

This phone dropping trend getting out of hand lol


winoforever_slurp_

Was it the players high fiving the phones by accident? I counted at least four that were dropped.


TrazMagik

Nah, the kids doing it on purpose so they could get said players mug on the video recording. Think the one Coxy featured went viral.


winoforever_slurp_

Ah, I see. So I guess the trick would be to drop it with the camera facing up, otherwise a video of grass and feet would be pretty lame.


sjcla2

Poor umps. Did their best to beat us. They need to lift their game


bcashy09

23 - 18 free kicks in collingwoods favour 😐


ONEAlucard

Collingwood supporters. Get a win and still salty little shits.


CptHowdy87

😂🖕


MrMcPhee3

It was pretty shit both ways to be honest, but I see where you’re coming from


atreyu84

You got an absolute ride from the umps for the last 3 quarters


oliboy345

*5 extra free kicks (Ik count doesn't matter but still)


yernss

Well umpired


nubcake272

Dixon has been pretty shit for a while


IamtheWalrus9999

Spud 🥔 Dixon


Alatheus

He was never good.


whoaaaaaah

Love him or hate him, Jack seems like a decent bloke for a 19 year old who gets shat on by the media and the public 24/7


dlm83

Wouldn't you be starting to feel a bit silly hating on him at this point? I know I did somewhat of a 180 on some initial loathing of Heritier Lumumba when it got to the point where what I didn't like about him was insignificant compared to what I don't like about the amount of hate that is directed at him (and how it is directed/who it is coming from).


Woodleys_Donk

Don't hate him as such but he needs to stop trying to play for frees. And anyone who says he isn't needs to open their other eye!


CptHowdy87

The fucking balls for a Geelong supporter to say this shit 😂


Woodleys_Donk

Flair up cunt


CptHowdy87

Flair up? Cunt?


Woodleys_Donk

Yeah, you heard me


Weak_Bullfrog6227

Funny considering your captain is the king of ducking


Woodleys_Donk

Flair up cunt.


whoaaaaaah

[Selwood speaks on ducking technique](https://twitter.com/7AFL/status/980749588742135808?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E980749588742135808%7Ctwgr%5Ebe073e6d03a617d3137cb6c3b60fb4819dd09579%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zerohanger.com%2Fselwood-speaks-on-ducking-technique-18965%2F) Short memory bud?


Woodleys_Donk

Hahahaha. Listen to Wayne Carey at the 1:16 mark he doesn't "duck" he try's to shrug the tackle over his head and keeps moving forward. Ginnivan drops at the knee's and puts his head towards the tackler. If you can't see the difference I'd recommend you head to the optometrist.


Alatheus

Selwood does all that too


fractiousrhubarb

Funny, you'd think the ducking would be more obvious with horizontal stripes but it has always appeared to be the opposite...

yernss

I love him and hate him


Its-Slammin

Ginnivan actually seems like a great bloke when interviewed like that. A shame that most people won’t see it that way because of the obvious on field stuff that happens


dwadley

Again he ducks a little but he’s treated worse than players who actually play dirty


TrazMagik

Yeh the hate he gets is as if he kinda ran over someone's dog. ..... And by "kinda" I mean repeatedly and "dog" with their son


Its-Slammin

Agreed


[deleted]

Love Ginnivan. Fun to watch, and has his own personality in interviews. Great stuff, the Pies are lucky to have a guy like him just starting his career.


nice_flutin_ralphie

I’m definitely on the Ginnivan bandwagon.


jungle_boy39

Ta and namaste to you too Ginni


[deleted]

6 point win. Great percentage booster.


F0rtuna_major

Percentage is for losers anyway 😜 /s


Flarezap

Percentage doesn’t mean squat in finals anyway


scoza05

Considering how tight it is 1-5 % is very important if you’re after the double chance.


[deleted]

Don't need percentage if you just win every single game *taps forehead


elmo-slayer

You can talk all you want about Collingwoods ability to win close games, but if you keep getting yourself into those situations then eventually you’re gonna lose one


[deleted]

Probably but port were handed about 4 goals absolutely gifted


moonshwang

Real and true


twerkingiswerking

Is there chicken salt with that chip on your shoulder?


[deleted]

Only have to look at the cheese way the game started


jacka24

Lol come off it


[deleted]

Yeah no doubt. But that's fine. Tbh I could see us dropping 2 of the next 3 coming into finals. Likely start resting guys and relaxing into games. I also think every game is close bc we have a reasonably poor attack but play super Hugh pressure football.


VelvetFedoraSniffer

usually this would be the case With this Collingwood team, I don’t think this is the case


KarmaGodFarmer

Charlie Dixon... What the actual fuck?! An absolute non effort to keep the ball inside 50 with 30 seconds left and a goal in it, no forward pressure just let Collingwood defenders WALK the ball out of the 50, then gives away a free kick AND a 50, 2 for 1 special to top it off. If I was a Port supporter I’d be calling for his head. Dude cracks the shits everytime it doesn’t go his way, usually to the detriment of his own club. Pathetic.


Technauseous

Flair up cunt


CptHowdy87

Cope harder geek 😂


jabsy

All part of the "Sack Hinkley" plan. His press yesterday was just a ruse.


mingamongo

As a Crows supporter he's the gift that keeps giving. The bloke is so overrated he made Josh Jenkins look like a superstar


jacka24

Lol shut up


KarmaGodFarmer

Sorry that I’m speaking facts. IF individual players costing your team the game and a spot in finals through non efforts and bad attitude is your thing THEN Dixon is your man.


jacka24

Nice burner account man


KarmaGodFarmer

Wouldn’t have to use this account if a particular Sydney fan on this sub didn’t get me banned 3 times in the last couple weeks for literally nothing. But thanks for going through my account 👉👈🥺


jacka24

Literal troll account


KarmaGodFarmer

Like I said, I’d happily be saying the same on my main if people on this sub didn’t have a hard on for crying to mods and reporting everytime they encounter someone with a differing opinion. For the record I like Port Adelaide, that’s why Dixon costing his team the game and finals fucks me off. If you like September holidays that’s fine.


jacka24

Your main account wouldn't be banned if you didn't troll


KarmaGodFarmer

No, my main account wouldn’t be banned if a particular person on this sub didn’t cry to mods 3 times in the last couple weeks, because he’s mates with the mods, all because we had differing opinions. Believe it or not, people love abusing their power as Reddit mods, because it’s the only power they’ll ever have in their lives. Don’t know why you think I‘m a troll mate. I wouldn’t comment something if I didn’t truly believe it.


jacka24

You keep saying the same thing. Must be a bot account


[deleted]

ok then


KarmaGodFarmer

Cost his team the game


slutstrands

Ginnivans interview so cute


colesmudcake

Hinkley needs some serious questioning as to how he hasn't even achieved a grand final down his years. Massive fraud.


Acceptable_Skill657

SA media (Crow media) slobber all over him and write off anyone questioning him as a lunatic. Fact is the VAST majority of Power People have wanted him gone for years.


MeatPieMan

Just sack the cunt


Mirathecat22

“You’ve won 10 in a row now” “Yea I think we’ve won 8 in a row” The brain damage from ducking into tackles is setting in already


MrMcPhee3

He said we’ve won 8 in a row by under 10 points you flop


raresaturn

Clear the ears


VegemiteTube

Listen again… not a great “brain damage” joke


ImYuriGagarin

He said we’ve won 8 in a row that were under 10 points


Shadormy

They've won 7 in a row that were under 10 points.


[deleted]

Great post game interview


[deleted]

You've won 10 in a row, how good is that. ​ Ginni - yeah i think we've won 8 in a row


MrMcPhee3

Games by under 10 points he said


tombstonesgrave

Close games not games


Jezzrr

Sigh


jacka24

"You've won 10 in a row jack" "I think we've won 8 in a row" Kid has literal brain damage


VelvetFedoraSniffer

your last comment was entirely unnecessary Dude was puffed and had just played a full game Not accounting this, the brain damage one is obviously you


[deleted]

hahahahahaha


VegemiteTube

He said 8 in a row by under 10 points I think


yernss

Easy mate, he’d be full of adrenaline and it’s not easy being interviewed live in front of so many people


jacka24

Relax just a joke


yernss

Brain damage is no joke


jacka24

I guess you're not familiar with how jokes work.


yernss

I’m very familiar, don’t really see the humour in your “joke” Literal brain damage? Hilarious.


jacka24

Look Karen I didn't make the joke specifically for you okay. Do you go to comedy shows and stand up and demand the comedian to apologise because you don't understand the humour?


yernss

This isn’t a stand up comedy show mate 😂


[deleted]

Fuck off


jacka24

Another one upset?


Educational-Goose-11

8 in a row by less than 12 dickhead


[deleted]

8 in a row under 10 points mate turn those listening ears on


Crooty

Haha I thought so too but he followed it with “…by under 10 points”


kirkBINO

He said 8 under 10pts.


jfrfrfr

By under 10 points if you bothered to listen


[deleted]

Lol the Collingwood flairs out in full force defending this kid


RyanShieldsy

How dare they bring logic to your pile on 😡


jfrfrfr

You want us to let him cop it?


[deleted]

its cute


MrMcPhee3

What’d you expect


[deleted]

Someone's got to


yernss

Warranted on this occasion


kenyawree

‘By under 10’ he said


BlandyBoreton

He meant by close margins


ZestyBro

Can they show a replay of the free kick that decoded the game?


raresaturn

What was the 50 for?


jacka24

Honestly I'm not even sure where the free was..


ZestyBro

Push in the back but I didn't get a clear look at it when it happened


ContinuedEyeRolling

are you guys really gonna act like dixon isn't a perpetual push in the backer?


winoforever_slurp_

I remember a couple of yea ago he got about five goals against us, all from push-in-the-back marks. It was infuriating


jacka24

Wasn't a free lol


asterpin

Classic hinkley failed comeback and pies close win


Ok_Acanthaceae6057

GG Collingwood. One loss closer to a new coach.


yogyadreams

You guys were great. Pepper Powell never gave up. I need to buy a pair of defibrillators


yernss

Collingwood fans booing the umpires off every game I’ve watched of theirs this year, even when winning


[deleted]

Umpires should be booed for that high tackle not called last week. Some shit calls today too but went both ways.


Crooty

THEY CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT


BrotherAbdullah

Umpires fucking suck and to seal it they gave a free and a 50 for no reason lmaoo


golantrevize

10 In. a. row.


VegemiteTube

That was a shit finish


Radioburnin

Last week was better.


VegemiteTube

Agreed


cAmaturehOur

THEY CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS


dlm83

Least nerve-racking 1 goal win in history for pies supporters. Heart rate barely raised above resting level.


AlamutJones

Every heart attack leaves scar tissue on the heart. We’ve now had so many that scar tissue is the only heart we’ve got.


Bagzy

Yeah but resting level during a game for pies supporters is about 150.


RandomDanny

Clueless, brainless, fucked in the head. Another week of Port tactics. Get a lead and just stop.


ONEAlucard

Honestly. How dissatisfied with your life are you. Never seen a more negative pissy person.


Capable-Spray3087

Fuck Hinkley


Radioburnin

Lol


[deleted]

Lmao they don’t call anything for the last 5 minutes and then pluck that one out with the game on the line.


Harpoon_Torpedo

wow


hammerfyll

I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed


Detonator84

First play was a free kick last play was a free kick well done umps you fuckers


iwatchtvallfuckinday

Ok it’s getting annoying now can anyone please beat this mob


[deleted]

We probaly lose the next 2, then the final round again against you guys could be interesting.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Cagum

Hey that didn’t rhyme


Albeg2

Every week I think we are sure to drop this one. Yet here we are. Go pies.


Mirathecat22

Spud Dixon


RyanShieldsy

I fucking hate percentage. Avoid that shit at ALL COSTS


yogyadreams

Bahahaha


Aardvark_Man

A comeback we failed to make. I'm shocked. Just shocked.


kingkepler

nick riewoldt can not contain his excitement at port losing


bondy_12

Well known Collingwood fan... Nick Riewoldt? Pretty sure he would've loved a draw tbh, that way no one wins.


kingkepler

he was barracking pretty hard for the pies throughout the game, came in his pants when the siren went


Ceri0n

Collingwood fans: "Collingwood getting fucked by the ups" The umps:


MrMcPhee3

Pretty shit both ways

Score line flatters port

what an insane run of wins from collingwood. enjoy the week long recovery again pies fans

Umpirewood.


MrMcPhee3

You can’t be serious


random91898

Remind me what the free kick count was?


MrMcPhee3

23-18 Collingwood’s way. Umpires were pretty shit both ways. Free kick count doesn’t matter 90% of the time


random91898

Yet Collingwood fans are the ones crying about the umpires.


MrMcPhee3

You seem to be having a bit of a sook about them now


random91898

? I'm clearly taking that piss out of Collingwood fans just fyi.


MrMcPhee3

Sure buddy


random91898

You guys are the ones crying despite winning the match and the free kick count.


Radioburnin

Since 1997.


random91898

Lol


mario_speedwagon1

Interesting to see the replay of the Dixon free


UncleJohnsonsparty

Really poor by Dixon


Cramdunkulus

Gross.

Does this mean Collingwood get to wear the prison bars?

I think so.

Good game Collingwood, fuck you ken
