Isn’t it footy fun?
We might need a welfare check on Melbourne supporters after that one.
Oliver, Petracca, Brayshaw and Gawn won the disposal count and put in the hard yards, while Fritsch was dangerous in front of goal with two majors.
But it wasn’t enough for the emerging Collingwood side. Elliott and Johnson both claimed four goals each and Nick Daicos once again held the fort down back, along with Howe and Maynard.
What an evening.
What a night, what a finish!
Melbourne lead for 92:54 minutes of the game but Collingwood, just as this exciting side under McRae have been doing, took control when it mattered: the end.
Pies are still on the ground celebrating with fans, and the fans are lapping up every second.
Collingwood win!
Hearts were racing, McRae looked like he couldn’t breath, the Collingwood chant was going from the crowd as the clock counted down. Then Crisp took a mark with 10 seconds to go and sealed the deal.
He didn’t get the goal but it didn’t matter, Pies had the lead. They win the game. Their 11th in a row.
FINAL SCORE: Collingwood 15.6 (96) d. Melbourne 13.11 (89)
Crisp with a behind
With just over two minutes to go, Crisp hits the post and gets a behind.
Feet up by 6.
Less than four minutes remaining
Collingwood hold a five-point lead with less than 4 minutes to go.
Things are getting tense and the players are looking tired but persistent.
Five lead changes so far this term
You wouldn’t want to have to go the bathroom this quarter, you’d miss an important moment that’s for sure.
The lead has changed 5 times this quarter.
Johnson pushed, gets the free, gets the goal
Can you believe it?
Collingwood have got another goal off the boot of Johnson, his fourth, putting the lead back in the hands of the Pies.
Goal for goal – again
Well, it wasn’t long before Melbourne took the lead back.
A goal from Neal-Bullen puts the Demons 1-point in front.
Blink and you’ll miss these goals.
Daicos puts the Pies back in the lead
If Melbourne are ruthless, Collingwood are relentless.
A brilliant passage of play with the Pies finding space finished with a goal from Josh Daicos.
It’s goal for goal at the moment.
Feet back in the front.
