Magpie's Football Update
The pre-season competition started this weekend and Collingwood won their round-robin against Richmond and deadly rivals Carlton.
Yeah it's not the season proper, but there's a feeling of beginning to the quest to go back-to-back premiers in the AFL.
Still not keen on this last touch boundary rule and it's rather strange to see three teams go at it in one night... but it's footy.
Glorious Australian Rules football.
I've had this video lined up for a post. If you don't know our game, consider this a sample.
THE most exciting spectator sport in the world.
and this promo from 32 years ago, with that famous anthem... lot of memories here:
