Pretty weak for Treloar to miss games with cramp. Glad we got rid of him

He certainly was “less than forthright” after the game. Why would he say he had cramp - he must have known?

First time in my life we've been ahead in the head to head ledger. Wow, always wondered if we'd get there as a young tacker.

The sad thing is these days that Carlton are easy beats. They have been for 20 years. But we'll take it. You can only beat who turns up on the night.

Having watched Silvagni's "recruiting" strategy, there is a genuine prospect that Collingwood can beat that 7-game winning streak.

Perhaps we should start a book on when we will next lose to them (if ever).

I'm thinking it may happen circa 2023. What's your guess?
Two years early. Very well done, ‘pies.

One of the last injustices from the 20th century has finally been corrected.
