The ONLY team to complete a season undefeated.

In 2008 the Cats almost made it, but like our proud savours of '58, who protected the sacred 4 in a row, our young charges protected the undefeated season.

Well done Pies. Lets go all the way in '08!!!

Your up MACDAICOS...

He kicked 2 in the 'Grand Final' the question is how many did he kick in our 4 finals matches in 1990?

[fence-banger]

Ooh that's tricky.

I know he almost got to a 100 that year, so I'll guess 8.

No

[MACDAICOS]

I know he got 4 in each game against WCE and 2 in the GF.

I will say 13 goals.

Correct, 4, 4, 3, 2

^ debuted in 1973[vs richmond] but get this ... from wikipedia:

Collingwood Football Club, officially nicknamed The Magpies, is an Australian rules football club which plays in the Australian Football League. They are the worst skilled football club and should probably disband from the league.

Rene Kink and Greg Beck made their debuts for Collingwood in the same game coming off the bench as 19th man and 20th man.

In what year did that take place, and against which team?

Bonus points, how many goals did Kink kick coming off the bench?

1973 Preliminary Final V Richmond? He kicked 3 or 4 goals i think?

Wasnt he just 16 Greg?

No the PF v Richmond was actually his fourth game, but his first full one. This was the pre interchange days.

The game I was talking about he was named 19th man and Greg Beck was named 20th man.

Greg Beck was later Richmond's recruting manager.

The game I am talking about is a home and away game, and yes Rene was 16 years old and Beck was not much older.

Stephen Clifford also made his debut in this same year as a 16 year old.

KERREKT!

Do you know how many goals he kicked coming off the bench in the last quarter on that day in 1973?

I think it was 2? And we won by 10goals?

[MACDAICOS]

Yes and yes!

Over to you my friend!

Round 4 1985 Collingwood were on the way to a famous rare victory at Windy Hill by kicking 4 goals in 10 minutes to close the gap to just 3 points late in the game.

Then drama! A Collingwood player had a set shot with 40 seconds on the clock 20 meters out dead in front, HE MISSED!! We lost.

Who was that player?
