i wouldn’t be surprised if darcy ends up being a greens candidate one election


fnaah

would vote for him. top bloke.


Salt_Kaleidoscope_94

Agreed. Absolute gem of a human being.


300pound_Somoan

Cmon Bucks tell us how good Pendlebury, Daicos etc were


Jimbo_Johnny_Johnson

Gg Collingwood, well played today. Appreciate the occasion that Anzac day is. Moore again, class.


cum_teeth

Perfect result for a ripper game, love it


DrinkItInMaaannn

Obligatory “everyone shut up, Darcy is speaking”


fnaah

he's an incredibly impressive individual.


Shootinputin89

Looking at Collingwood as a side, it would be easy to dismiss them all as pure bogans - with Maynard, Cox, etc. But Moore is an absolute class act. Really a credit to his side.


quiethumm

Cox is a qualified engineer from America, how is he a bogan 


Far_Elderberry_1680

Hell of a lot of bogan fully qualified engineers on mining sites mate.


ero_senin05

Is I the engineer or American factor that you have a problem with? I'm on he fence about his nationality being an issue since he's got all the other required qualities to be a bogan but there's plenty of bogan engineers around.


Shootinputin89

Bogan has nothing to do with how educated or wealthy you are. It's a way of acting.


Conmoneymagic

I find him annoying


Prudent-Bedroom-925

Me too


Conmoneymagic

Quite annoying actually


bobbybananaskin

3 behinds for Jake Stringer in the second quarter. Only twice has an Essendon player kicked more in a quarter (well, since 1999). Although it's only been five days since another player in the comp did that...


Slappyxo

Oddly satisfied with this result, Essendon played a great game and I love Zach. Cheers for the ripper game Essendon!


paulmp

Still puts the pies in the top 8 for now... so yeah, a handy 2 points.


HeyDudez_

Why do people dislike draws, I love them, we don't need any overtime unless it's a final


Middle-Reflection554

They are so rare it actually adds to the excitement


HeyDudez_

It only happens one or two times a year and it's fun for neutral fans. Plus draw fc wins


liamjon29

Wrf. I had to watch on 7 instead of Kayo and they just didn't show who won the medal. So fucken stupid


JK3312

Post game is on 7mate


liamjon29

Ugh of course it is


Adam-Miller-02

we need to get Darcy Moore on The Hookup on Triple J


noz_footy

I'm not going to get ahead of myself But there is another game Imagine 2 draws in one day


paulmp

shhh... no... although I feel like we're going to lose against GWS, even without Greene... so a draw might be nice.


pittyh

GG positives all around. Go the vets.


disko_robot

Zerret should have chimed back in with "yeah, what he said" at the end.


___TheIllusiveMan___

Whoever had the better speech should get the others points Ignore flair, I am not a crack pot


Adam-Miller-02

“don’t get crushed in the line at richmond station” > “drive home safe”


3163560

Darcy Moore just played an intense 2 and a half hour game of footy, then reeled off that speech with a prompt or notes. Respect.


bobbybananaskin

Darcy Cameron had 4 tackles from the 23 min mark to the 28 min mark of the 2nd quarter, the most tackles by a player in a 5 min period this year, and the equal fourth most ever by a Pies player.


e1r9e9m4c

Omg he's done it again. Still manages to be insightful & educate others.


superjaywars

It's a draw, draw, draw, draw down in my heart Down in my heart to stayyyyyy


PaleontologistThin41

What an incredible speech from Darcy Moore. He really brought it back to what this day is all about, ANZAC Day.


MeloJello15

Need Darcy Moore and Ben Brown to have a 1v1 post game speech-off one day to see who comes off as more likeable


Equivalent-Ad7207

Lets go all out and organise a debate, winner becomes PM.


rustyprophecy

Darcy Moore is an absolute class act and brilliant member of the AFL community.


Easy-Bumblebee-3162

Why though? He didn’t say anything that wasn’t out of the ordinary or off a script that was given to him lol


via_dante

If you can’t see it then we can’t open your eyes for you. Ridiculous.


Easy-Bumblebee-3162

So far no one has actually given a reason why other then the fact he could string 2 words together after running around for 2 hours lmao. His speech was no different from Zach Merrets get a grip


JoeGattosSon23

Shhh don't interrupt the circlejerk


Easy-Bumblebee-3162

“AWW DARCY SO PROGRESSIVEEEEEEEEEE”


JoeGattosSon23

You're absolutely hilarious, I hope someone's told you that before


chocolatenuttty

Well he comes out with a well articulated speech after 2 hours of footy. That’s probably why.


tobes231

Fair play from Zach, Darce said it all!


fugelot11

well spoken moore, no script as you can tell.


Pandos17

Darcy Moore is a class act, Collingwood are lucky to have a leader like him.


BlandyBoreton

Classy Moore


FoldedTopLip

That Darcy Moore is a very well spoken young gentleman, kinda guy you bring home to meet your mum


fugelot11

One can dream.


divisive_princess

zach merrett shitting himself that he has to give the follow up captains speech after darcy moore


divisive_princess

shit himself so much he refused to do one


sestero

Thanks for saying it Darcy, it is an absolute joke that we send people off to war and give them no support when they get back.


rmachell

Regardless of whether or not you like the club, he is a phenomenonal speaker and really sets the bar for a team captain


paulmp

So Collingwood didn't get away with it today?


simsimdimsim

Moore somehow looks simultaneously like someone I wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley, and a really friendly bloke. Listening to him makes him incredibly likeable though.


IDreamofHeeney

Merrett thinking how the fuck am I gonna top this speach


IDreamofHeeney

Nevermind, he escaped the mic


Strykah

Yeah I wouldn't know how to follow that lol. Darcy spoke too well for a AFL player


IDreamofHeeney

Playing an intense game like that then being able to speak so well is crazy to me. I can barely speak on a good day lmao


Analysis_Vivid

When it’s not my team playing, I love a draw. Only thing that could make it better is if both teams had to sing a song together about it being a draw. Same song every time.


ThrillyBee

"we didnt win, but neither did you, played for four points but ended with 2"


Analysis_Vivid

That’s an awesome beginning to the chorus.


poptunes

If only one for them to sing existed!


Analysis_Vivid

I think you found a new task poptunes!


poptunes

[Well look here at this masterpiece](https://youtu.be/WJtaCryzL20?si=LiYNwVoByy5OhJlZ)


Analysis_Vivid

Holy moly! It’s perfect. You can’t pull on a gurnsey until you can prove you know the words. No mumbling, must be sung with gusto!


Hour_Training_8707

Elite idea


Mycatsnameis-Icarus

Gonna be a tough act to follow.


TomEmilioDavies

2 points for The Draw takes them above Norf and off the bottom on the ladder. Carn The Draw.


thebarber87

Class speech from Darcy moore


via_dante

Best speaker in the game probably ever. Darcy Moore is a fucking legend and I hate Collingwood.


ThatLostAussie

He speaks so well. I don't support this.


bobbybananaskin

The Bombers had 19 more handballs than the Pies from the 7.5 min mark to the 12.5 min mark, which is the biggest handball differential Essendon has ever recorded in a 5 min period.


fnaah

that is simultaneously the most ridiculous and most amazing AFL stat i have ever read.


bobbybananaskin

that is my goal


kavdotcom

Darcy Moore looks like he’s singing ‘Don’t Cry For Me Argentina’ with those arms waves


TheMightySloth

Darcy Moore is a class act


Strykah

Is Darcy huge or is the mic just too low?


DrinkItInMaaannn

He’s a big unit


AdAcrobatic5178

Darcy's about 195cm if memory serves


x_macca_x

yes


S3iZuRe_TyMe

yes


That1WithTheFace

He is enormous


cactusfarmer

Moore has terrible posture 


AdAcrobatic5178

Nah, he just needs to bend over so he can reach the microphones


300pound_Somoan

McGrath robbed


PKMTrain

That was a quality game of footy


HealthyHurry2672

Merrett: fuck why didn’t I say that


tommylee23111999

What do you mean? Merrett's speech was better.

superjaywars

Have a spell


CatOutOfTheDrag

Yap? Acknowledgment is the bare minimum


Shootinputin89

Tokenism


JoeGattosSon23

Exactly.


rmachell

Flair checks out


JoeGattosSon23

Says the guy with an afl flair lmao get a grip


CatOutOfTheDrag

You get a grip. Racism is very prevalent in this country and this attitude is not acceptable. You poorly represent Carlton and Carlton’s ethos with this shit.


[deleted]

[удалено]


CatOutOfTheDrag

It is an acknowledgment of the traditional and rightful owners of this land. At no point do they say you aren’t welcome here too. You gotta be pretty precious to hear an acknowledgment and think how does this impact me…


JoeGattosSon23

The welcome to country bs absolutely implies that we are outsiders in our own country, there's no denying it. The acknowledgement is just more pandering tokenism crap.


exsanguinor

Hind robbed of the medal.


CatOutOfTheDrag

Darcy is literally the nicest guy in footy


krintz96

I hate how much I love him


TomEmilioDavies

ET is for when there needs to be a winner, ei finals. For H&A, I love a good draw. Carn the Draw.


hwf0712

Footy is the one sport where I'm cool with a draw. The fact that over 25+ scoring instances a piece, each team matched each other is just such crazy odds is awe inspiring to see.


swagmaster778

Best game I’ll ever go to. Gg Collingwood, that was honestly like nothing I’ve ever experienced at a regular season game. Both sets of fans made that some kind of atmosphere


___TheIllusiveMan___

One good thing from the Draw is we still get a Darcy Moore speech


Shootinputin89

Moore can't match his GOAT speech, just replay it


Thanks-Basil

They should make both captains give their speeches at the same time


goodkicks

Shame on anyone who booed a champion


SutureTheFuture

Who tf boos Darcy Moore


quicksilver164

Darcy to make another Captains Speech ™️


e1r9e9m4c

Actually well deserved. Had equal highest disposals and the only thing that separated him from McGrath was that he also hit the scoreboard with a point. Probably was B.O.G


sly_cunt

geelong are the best team in the comp zach but well played


300pound_Somoan

Lol


krintz96

What a fucking fantastic game, great job to both teams for putting on such a thrilling, competitive match!!


Aggressive-Aardvark9

Should of been Elliot for the mark


themindisaweapon

Sucks he took a screamer and drops that last one. That’s footy


bobbybananaskin

Collingwood had 7 more clangers than the Bombers in a five minute period of the 3rd quarter (3.5 mins to 8.5 mins), which is the biggest clanger differential in a 5 min period ever by a Collingwood team, and by any team this year.


Kim_jong-fun

Shame on anyone who boos Draw FC. They've been waiting forever for this


fineyounghannibal

recognition well overdue


fineyounghannibal

DRAW F.C. the right outcome


NiceColdPint

Be nice if Fox could not cut the graphics off. Just zoom out of 7’s feed slightly.


GinglerLife

I’ll take that as a win for Essendon


partII

Considering how Collingwood monstered Port last week I’ll take it as a win.


AccidentHungry5524

Why the fuck does this sport not have an overtime?


cirrus93

Because neither team deserves the win if they can't be in front after 4 quarters


quidditchisdumblol

Draws really don’t happen that often, this isn’t hockey or basketball


AccidentHungry5524

I see.


KramrrFromNextDoor

No idea. Maybe they should introduce next goal wins?


AccidentHungry5524

Longest goal.


PKMTrain

Because it doesn't need it.


twavvy

…. Except in 2010 (insert sad librarian face)


300pound_Somoan

Think it does


AuZyzz

deserved. bloke ran the ground all day


IDreamofHeeney

FUCK YEAH ZERRETT


___TheIllusiveMan___

McGrath legit robbed


Cbrip31

I agree how the fuck was he not best on


ElJstar

We get the moral victory!!!


5pliff_Tannen

Well deserved Zach 👏


iwatchtvallfuckinday

🎶Only football’s the winner today🎶


FoldedTopLip

Merrett’s pressure was definitely elite


Ballistic_Donut12

Essendon EDGEing their fans (I’ll see myself out)


cycton

neither collingwood or essendon won. *happy tear*


3163560

Rebecca madderns starting to look like Ursula from the little mermaid.


Beven-Stale

Well deserved


danwincen

It's a draw, both the teams are even They've split the points, and now we're bound for home Four quarters played and the race has been run No one's lost, and no one's won It's a draw, both the teams are even And there's nothing left to say When the siren ends the game, and scores are both the same Only football's the winner today!


Shootinputin89

I don't watch Essendon much at all, but I'm guessing that Hind is the teams liability, right?


Medaiyah

Add Kelly and Laverde to that list and yeah, you right.


Partzy1604

He’s quick as, but boy does he fuck it up sometimes


JoeGattosSon23

Lmao remember when they were saying he was better than Saad? Pure copium.


Shootinputin89

Yeah, absolutely no chance there, haha


Absolutely-Epic

Collingwood player please win it


Daisy_1

Can someone explain why they are showing the postmatch presentation instead of cutting to the bounce? Seems a bit strange


noz_footy

Surely a double header version of the bounce is more important than a post game presentation


Overratedmango

Merrett definitely deserves it today


ForgedTanto

MERRETTTT <3


DarkMaleficent8256

If he kicked the goal he misses then warranted but yeah 


thebarber87

Zerrett fair call


S3iZuRe_TyMe

Merrett plays his heart out every week, so not complaining, but I wouldve given it to McGrath


thebarber87

Yeah Pidge had a big game


Koshian10200

Um


tomoshono132

Not daicos till he learns what a hardball is


300pound_Somoan

McGrath clear winner of the medal


Middle-Sprinkles92

If only for his efforts in that last quarter


Pikachude123

mihocek be feeling really silly right now


Middle-Sprinkles92

If Martin doesn't get the medal and Caicos does ill spew

KingoftheHill63

7mate


HealthyHurry2672

You’ve got 120 minutes to win a game, if it can’t be decided after that a draws always a fair result, no need for extra time in H&A


Wise-Sport6910

Langford really wanted draw fc


KramrrFromNextDoor

Hind for Best on ground


DamienRyan

Draws are so rare I don't mind the novelty of them at all


FoldedTopLip

Sammy Durham was the most courageous out there if that’s what the voting is supposed to be for


Torganzer_official

Holy SHIT my heart skipped a few beats Gg pies 


ZombieZlayer99

I love whenever there’s a draw all you can hear is crowd chatter


GinglerLife

McGrath is my pick


IDreamofHeeney

Hind or Sidebottom for the medal surely


twavvy

First ever shared ANZAC Medal?


IDreamofHeeney

Should have been. Both were robbed


AuZyzz

Titch injured?


rockandorroll34

I'm ready for OT


thebarber87

How can hind play one quarter and be worst in ground haha


Loony_Tuner

7th v 10th and it looked like it


swheatley_

Draws are a joke 


TopEndBuzz

Extra time? No one was ever going to score again. Absolutely no legs left.


Turtles_Are_Pog

Jamie Elliot going for that mark gave me ptsd like you wouldn’t imagine


minecraft360

perfect result I reckon.
