12 in a row!

Full Time.

Box Hill 7.15.57
Collingwood 12.6.78

GOALS - Cloke 4, Collopy 2, Kelly, Indovino, Gault, Witts, Golds, Cox

A DOZEN OF THE BEST (or at least of various quality) for Collingwood!

And with results still pending and games to be played, Collingwood LOCK IN a Top 2 spot and with it, the right to a home Qualifying Final, for the first time EVER!!!

The stage is now set for a cliffhanger finish next week at Whitten Oval, in a match that could quite possibly determine the minor premiership...

OVER TO YOU!!!

Terrific commentary once again, Bat! This is one seriously good VFL side we have. Good sign for future AFL sides.

Great stuff. I just got inside and read the last 5 pages.

Riddle for anyone there, from the commentary we played Witts in the ruck and Cox, Cloke and Gault up forward. 3 talls plus Witts and apparently we weren't as slow as treacle up forward?

If we weren't, how did it work?

If we were, how did we win?
