 |  | |  | | 2009 Collingwood Magpies | Collingwood Football Club, officially nicknamed The Magpies is an Australian rules football club which more...plays in the Australian Football League.
The players wear black and white striped guernseys, similar to the colours of a magpie; thus their emblem, the magpie, and their motto "Floreat pica" ("Flourish Magpies!", or "May the Magpies Prosper!").
Collingwood has won 14 VFL/AFL premierships, behind Essendon and Carlton who have won 16 apiece. They hold the Record for most premierships won in a row, with four wins from 1927 to 1930, and remain the only club to have gone through a full Home and Away season undefeated (in 1929), despite a formidable challenge from arch rival Essendon in 2000 and Geelong in 2008, both sides winning 21 out of the 22 games in the Home and Away Season. Fittingly, Geelong was only beaten by Collingwood in the 2008 season.
The club traditionally represented the working class inner Melbourne suburb of Collingwood, Victoria, however it has since moved its training and administration base to the Gosch's Paddock and the Lexus Centre at Olympic Park in Melbourne. They moved their home games from their traditional suburban home ground, Victoria Park, to the much larger Melbourne Cricket Ground from 2000 onwards.
The Magpies are known for their passionate supporter base, usually referred to as "The Magpie Army". Traditional Melbourne suburban rivalries Essendon, Richmond and Carlton remain fierce. Collingwood has gained interstate rivals particular in Port Adelaide & Brisbane, but has retained the reputation in the national competition as the "team everybody loves to hate".
Historically and especially more recently, Collingwood games have attracted the largest attendances. In 1970, 121,696 spectators watched Collingwood and Carlton contest the Grand Final, the record attendance for a football game of any code in Australia. Collingwood has the largest membership of the 10 Victorian clubs. In the past, a large proportion of Collingwood supporters were Catholic and it was known as "The Catholic Club." in years gone by. The average crowd at Collingwood home games in 2007 was 54,898.
The noted Australian playwright David Williamson scripted The Club, a play inspired by the internal politics of Collingwood, although "the club" is never actually specified in the play or film. A film version was made in 1980 and features Collingwood players in speaking and non-speaking roles.

 |  |  | Guildford Flames 4-2 Slough Jets - English Premier League/Cup - Sunday 4th October 2009 08:30 Competition: League-Cup Location: Guildford Spectrum Referee: Roman Szucs Linesman: Stefan Hogarth; Paul Brooks Attendance: 1,355
Fresh off a more...3rd consecutive win, the Guildford Flames stepped back onto Spectrum ice and used a pair of 1st period goals as a springboard in delivering the Slough Jets first regulation loss of the new campaign by handing them a 4-2 defeat. Gary Clarke opened the scoring early on the powerplay when he teed up a blast from the point that beat Gregg Rockman. Nathan Rempel scored his first in Flames gear in the 18th minute to double the lead ahead of the first break. At 28.59, though, the Jets replied when Peter Poljacek pulled his side to within a goal. The Jets applied the majority of the pressure in the last 6 or 7 minutes of the period until a Joe Greener penalty proved costly when Rob Lamey converted a powerplay just over a minute from the period end; sending Spectrum’s team to the last stanza having re-stored the two goal cushion. The clubs traded goals in the final 20 minutes. Rick Plant opened a 4-1 Flames lead at 45.32 before the Jets had a handful of powerplays over a short span of time, including a pair of 5 on 3 advantages; the first of which they turned into a goal when Blaz Emersic pulled his club back to 4-2 with the final goal of the night.

| |  |  | Guildford Flames 4-2 Swindon Wildcats - English Premier League/Cup - Sunday 27th September 2009 09:30 Competition: League-Cup Location: Guildford Spectrum Referee: Dave Cloutman Linesman: Tom Pering; Tom Stephenson Attendance: 1,436
After a win more...24 hours earlier in Slough, Spectrums franchise returned to home ice and backed up the earlier success by doubling the Swindon Wildcats with a 4-2 score. The visitors opened their account on the powerplay after a scoreless opening frame when Aaron Nell one timed a corner feed in front of Flames netminder Dean Skinns at 20.31. Milos Melicherik replied to even things up at 32.05 and the clubs took the tie game into the final frame. Less than a minute into the 3rd, the Flames were awarded a penalty shot after a Swindon player gloved the puck in the crease. Martin Masa was put in the spotlight for the occasion and tucked a high shot over the shoulder of Geoff Woolhouse to put his side in front. At 47.49 Gary Clarke collected a Tom Duggan pass and slid a backhand beyond the goal line to extend the lead to a pair. Nearly 10 minutes later Masa netted his second of the night to put the game out of reach. The Wildcats responded with another Nell goal 7 seconds from time, but it had little effect on the ultimate outcome and the league table points.

|  | Guildford Flames 2-3 Basingstoke Bison - English Premier League/Cup - Sunday 20th September 2009 07:51 Competition: League-Cup Location: Guildford Spectrum Referee: Roman Szucs Linesman: Stefan Hogarth; Richard Boot Attendance: 1,364
The Basingstoke more...Bison paid their first visit to Guildford Spectrum since 2005 but wasted little time in stamping their mark on the game when they took a 1-0 lead just over a minute in thanks to an Ondrej Lauko goal that set the stage for a 3-2 Basingstoke win. Lauko extended that margin to a pair at 14.40 and the 2-0 lead held over into the middle frame. At 26.21 the Flames finally got on the board when Gary Clarke cut the lead in half. There was no further scoring until 43.26 when a loose puck on the Bison blue line during a Flames powerplay left Lauko alone on Dean Skinns from mid ice giving him the opportunity to complete the natural hattrick, which he did, to re-store the visitors two goal cushion. At 49.51 the Flames showed life when a Martin Masa strike pulled the Flames back to within a goal. Not long after that, however, the Czech native was on the wrong end of a major penalty and game misconduct for checking to the head. The Flames efforts to tie the game shorthanded in the closing moments were unsuccessful, leaving Spectrums outfit with a pair of defeats to open league and cup play.

|  |  | Guildford Flames 8-1 Swindon Wildcats - Challenge - Saturday 12th September 2009 08:58 Back on home ice for the first time of the season on Sunday night, the Flames shrugged off a 4-3 defeat in Swindon 24 hours earlier to send around 1600 more...Spectrum faithful home a happy bunch after a delivering an 8-1 win in exhibition play over the Wildcats. Things looked good early when Martin Masa netted to finish a two on zero break by taking a perfect feed from Paul Dixon at the goals doorstep, but the celebrations were a bit premature as the marker was another in a string of goals the club had waved off over the weekend of play. Fortunately, for Flames followers, the next one counted when Stuart Potts found the net for a 1-0 lead at 7:24. Jozef Kohut replied for Swindon just over a minute later on the powerplay to even things up. Gary Clarke collected a powerplay strike of his own to put the Flames back in front at 10:20. Just over a minute into the middle frame, Lukas Smital extended the home lead to 3-1 and Potts tacked on another at 22:39. The home side carried the 4-1 lead into the final period before Jez Lundin scored his first in a Flames shirt to open a four goal cushion at 43:21, then added his second in the 47th minute. Rick Plant chipped in at 53:11 before Masa one timed a Smital feed while shorthanded 59 seconds from time to complete the scoresheet and the Flames win.
