Missing suspended forward Chris Tarrant and reduced to 19 men by half time after losing Nick Maxwell, Blake Caracella and Dane Swan to injury, the Magpies produced a 16.13 (109) to 12.11 (83) win, which was one of their most gutsy triumphs in recent times.

Big Bucks played great and kicked six goals.

BRISBANE LIONS: 2.2 5.5 8.7 12.11 (83)

INJURIES - Collingwood: Caracella (neck), Maxwell (corked calf), Swan (hamstring).

We wish Blake Caracella the best and hope to see him back in the Black and White Stripes again soon, I'm not sure of the extent of the injuries so here's the latest from the Pies website :

The injuries Blake Caracella suffered on Saturday night have been likened to those experienced by car crash victims, Collingwood club doctor Paul Blackman has revealed.Caracella has suffered an uncomplicated and undisplaced fracture in his cervical vertebrae, injuries that usually result from accidents at high speed, and will have to wear a neck brace for six weeks to allow the bone to heal.

"Motor vehicle accidents are really the ones or falls from a height, falls from a ladder. You've got to have extreme force, usually high velocity players or cars or other things going on," Blackman said.The angle at which Caracella was struck also played a part, however the fact he was on the ground made no difference in regards to the seriousness of his injury.

All the best Caracella.

AFL Rising Star Nominee: Heath Shaw


Young Collingwood defender Heath Shaw is the round five nominee for the NAB AFL Rising Star award.

The 20-year-old, who played six matches in 2005, has impressed for the Magpies at senior level, picking up 25 possessions in the Anzac Day victory over Essendon and another 23 touches in the round five win over Port Adelaide.

Shaw, the son of former Collingwood captain Ray Shaw and younger brother of Magpies midfielder Rhyce, was drafted by the Pies under the father-son rule in the 2003 NAB AFL Draft.

Shaw has played four matches for Collingwood in 2006 and is looking forward to playing alongside Rhyce once his older brother returns to senior action after his rehabilitation from a knee reconstruction.


Shaw Says :

About playing with Rhyce,
"We sort of missed out last year with Rhyce playing a really good first half of the year and then getting injured," Heath said."I played a little bit of the second half of the year so it was not the best timing but hopefully at some stage this year (we can play together)."

"They're continually playing well and you've got to perform each week because you never know what's going to happen the next week."I hope to cement my spot in the next couple of weeks by playing really good football."

Go The Pies - 4 wins in a Row - 3rd on The Ladder.

Well round 6 is coming up against Carlton and should notch up another win as the blue baggers may struggle against a stronger line up.

Round 5 was a big one for the pies as they thumped Port Adelaide by 41? points, the pies were out classed marginally in the 1st and 2nd. quarters, but turned the heat up in the 3rd. quarter by kicking 8 goals to one and capped off the Magpies' best start to a home-and-away season since 2000.

Ben Johnson backed up from his Anzac medal-winning performance last week with a 25-possession game while Shane O'Bree was sensational in his 150th match. O'Bree finished the day with two goals and 22 disposals, but the performance of Buckley was simply phenomenal with his first goal in the third term the instigator of the flurry of goals to come in the third.

GOALS – Collingwood: Rocca 5, Buckley 4, Tarrant 4, Lonie 2, O'Bree 2, Swan

BEST – Collingwood: Buckley, Rocca, Johnson, Lockyer, Licuria, Fraser, Tarrant, O'Bree,

COLLINGWOOD: 6.0, 8.2, 16.6, 18. 12 (120)
PORT ADELAIDE: 4.1, 7.7, 8.9, 11.13 (79)

Go The Pies - Collingwood / Magpies at there Peak

Go the Pies.

Well after being beaten in the first round of the season by The Adelaide NetBall Team it looked as though they may be in for another season on the bottom of the ladder, but two stunning victories have got the pies supporters excited and back into the local pubs displaying there colours proudly again.

With tarrant kicking six big ones against a disturbingly fat Roos outfit and Rocca providing eight big ones against the young and lucky hawks, lucky to be only beaten by eleven goals, should have been fifteen, the forwards look to be on fire and chuck didak and a little bit of black magic, Leon Davis into the mix and the pies are a chance for the finals this year.

If the pies can get that fat and ugly monkey off there back, called The Essendon Bombers and have a win, then there season is looking even more promising.

Go the Pies
