Wonder was the applicable word at the MCG on Sunday as the Magpies established a six-goal lead over Essendon, gave it all up to trail by 21 points early in the ...

It was unscientific, but effective, and led eventually to a steadying goal as the Pies bundled the ball at breakneck speed down the corridor. Somehow, the Pies kicked the last four goals of the match. But that was all she said for the Magpies. The change when it came in the second quarter was as sudden and bracing as the arrival of a cold front. No free kick was paid, the crowd howled, the game went on. For the Bombers, there was a series of centre clearances, and that was it. In the third quarter, it was more of the same. Now it was the Magpies who were made to look like incidentals. The problem was not lack of incoming ball, but its tardiness. What a cross the AFL has made for umpires to bear. There was Josh Daicos’ submission for goal of the year, in which he handballed around an opponent to himself, took two bounces along the boundary line before stepping inboard to score. Wonder was the applicable word at the MCG on Sunday as the Magpies established a six-goal lead over Essendon, gave it all up to trail by 21 points early in the last quarter, then when seemingly out on their feet came again for a four-point win. From the kick-in, Collingwood whisked the ball the length of the ground for Elliott to mark between two defenders 50 metres out on the boundary.

That was unbelievable." Harrison Jones had a chance to seal the game for Essendon with less than a minute on the clock, but a set shot hit the post and Collingwood hurtled back down the field. In front of a raucous 72,402-strong crowd at the MCG, the dangerous Magpies forward had a set shot after the siren to clinch victory over Essendon and nailed his task.

Craig McRae has helped turn Collingwood from an on-field basket case to everyone's new second team, writes Damian Barrett.

Geelong wouldn't be top of the ladder without Cameron. But he wouldn't be having a career-best year without his new teammates. From the 2019 rookie draft, Geelong secured Tom Atkins, who at nearly 27 years of age, is getting better and better with every match, now that he has assumed starting-midfield responsibilities. In his 11th season, and second for the Cats, Cameron is compiling his most impactful AFL season. Securing Cameron from GWS after the 2020 season required the use of a staggering three NAB AFL Draft picks inside the top 20. It secured the Pies’ ninth consecutive win in what is the most compelling storyline of the season. Everyone on the Pies list is considered equal to the next player.

COLLINGWOOD has done it again. The Magpies won another thriller on Sunday, thanks largely to the heroics of Jamie Elliott, who kicked the match-winner from ...

Sparked by a lift in pressure in the middle, it was a complete reversal of fortunes in the second term as the Bombers hit back with five goals to one to trail by just 13 points at half-time. Collingwood burst out of the blocks with six unanswered goals in the first term, with 2021 mid-season draftee Johnson nailing three of them and Josh Daicos launching a magnificent Goal of the Year contender. COLLINGWOOD has pulled off a miraculous final-quarter comeback to sink Essendon by four points on the siren at the MCG.

Essendon's leaders and coaches have come under fire from Fox Footy's First Crack team for its late game management of Sunday's epic four-point loss to ...

“This is on the Essendon leaders for me, and I can’t just walk past this one, this is absolute coaching, this is situational training. Former Hawthorn sharpshooter Ben Dixon added: “I couldn’t agree with you more, those leaders were a deer in the headlights. “This is on the lack of awareness for this football club.

'How do they keep doing it!?' Pies' 'miracle' last minute that decided INSANE win.

Western Bulldogs legend Brad Johnson added: “How does this team seriously keep doing it in the last quarter!? “Jamie Elliott has won the game of footy for this famous club! Hats off to them, that was spectacular,” Fox Footy’s Sarah Jones said post-match. “Ice in the veins of Jamie Elliott ... completely nuts.” Moore didn’t hesitate to play on, galloping forward and finding a wide open Trent Bianco on the wing. They’re miracle men being able to win these close ones time after time.

'I didn't hear it': Match-winning star's stunning admission as huge call made on Pies' flag charge.

“This is now riding a wave of emotion and momentum that can carry for two months. “I‘m a bit speechless, to be honest. I hope there’s not footage of me on the bench when the siren goes. “To be honest I didn’t hear it. I kicked it pretty sweet.” Elliott said McRae has “instilled a belief” in the side this season, which led to his conversion of a shot McRae himself admitted was long odds to go through for a goal.

How can we think ‘the AFL cares about concussions and head high contact’ after this.” How can one player be umpired differently to the rest of the opposition? It’s clear now he’s absolutely being umpired differently. That’s all it was. I think it’s wrong. “We know the umpires have been told the interpretation but it seems to me this youngster has been, not crucified, but he is the one they are after and I think the club should be pretty hard on going to them and saying this is unfair and what will be the situation in the future and what will happen with the umpire with a decision like that?

Watching him on the field is like a masterclass for an AFL coach. Sign up for the Real Footy newsletter. On-field, the midfielder-forward showed a real consistency in his performance. “To be honest, I thought that was a free kick. Not just on-field but a little bit off-field at the moment,” he said. How can we think “the AFL cares about concussions and head high contact” after this.” We need to clarify this with the umpires, no question about that. “I am really clear with it. I don’t think there was any leaning into it,” McRae said. In my opinion, it was a free kick but I could be wrong.” “The health and safety of players is the primary concern of both the AFL and the clubs, and we will continue to work with clubs, their coaching panels, as well as players to ensure the safety of the game,” he said. It has become personal.”
