    The Pies "winning run" DID come to an end because they finally beat a good team. The other six were all bad teams, the highest being 11th IIRC. AND they struggled against a couple.

    Good win for them, but we all know how it will end.

    Oh! To be honest, I was going to go with Melbourne.

    I'm not a Pies supporter but I find that comment a bit harsh, and very selective.
    In fact their winning run has been 11 wins and still going, the wins have come as per below;

    Round Defeated Defeated Team's position that Round Defeated Team's position now Rd 21
    10 Dockers 3 6
    11 Carlton 3 7
    12 Hawthorn 13 13
    13 Melbourne 1 2
    15 GWS 13 16
    16 GCS 11 11
    17 Kangaroos 18 18
    18 Adelaide 15 15
    19 Essendon 14 14
    20 Port Adelaide 11 12
    21 Melbourne 2 2

    So they have actually beaten Melbourne twice, Carlton when they were 3rd, the Dockers when they were 3rd yes they have won a lot of those 11 games against teams in the bottom half of the eight, but have a look at other top eight teams and see how many games they have actually lost to teams below them, to me that is the significance of Collingwood's run here.
    Cheers

    It's Collingwood, OF COURSE it's harsh and selective....a lifetime of detestation trumps truth.

    Naaaahh..it'd be easy. Pull the lot in and the crime rate would drop by 98%.....although the prison dentist would be pretty busy I'd imagine.
