Pie Hard

Pie Hard returns to ride the Daicos family bronco, analyse 'that' goal and the Carlton win, our standout rookies, the Buckley auction, veteran report cards, Fly's hard edge, to draft or to trade, plus our rating of the top ten Magpie marks this century. Giddyup!

Pie Hard returns mid hangover to analyse the Collingwood malaise, blame the fixture, send an SOS to Graham Wright, denounce John Farnham, query Fly's writer's room, lament game style deficiencies, retire old veterans, compliment only two players and generally remember how good last year was

In Part 2, we chat the redemption of John Noble, Darcy Moore in Speedos, Dane Swan’s foray into food television, Murphy’s concussions, De Goey’s digs, plus our suggestion for Craig McRae’s new motivational theme for Collingwood’s premiership defence, and our Ned Guy ‘he’ll surprise you’ picks for the most improved player for the upcoming season

[Part 1 of 2]

We return for a new season of pie hard with the pod version of a double-header. We describe our experience of getting clean off Collingwood post Grand Final and then relapsing again and again, revisit the post-premiership orgasm, rate our favourite offseason narratives, discuss Graham “Contiki” Wright’s Euro Gap Year, breakdown Collingwood’s recent foray into the cinematic universe, plus we chat offseason movements, Mini Mihocek, Craig McRae’s self-imposed use by date and Isaac Quaynor’s phenomenal summer

We wrap up an immortal season marinated in red wine, stuffed with wholesome, and basted in the succulent juices of ultimate glory in the most indulgent breakdown of Collingwood's 16th premiership yet

We celebrate a bumper grand final week with all the hard news, hard asks, hard predictions and hard plans leading into Saturday's mega climax 

We marinate in the glory of a special preliminary final victory, discuss the relationship debit and credit system ahead of grand final week, the art of Cuddleball, our run in with some old saints, De Goey the giant slayer, the loss of McStay, and revisit your favourite red wine replays from Collingwood’s one-point victory against GWS

We take preliminary final lessons from mythology, necromancy, tattoo artists, miracle hamstrings and Colombian remedies, plus our attempts to look good, smell good, feel good, play good, and we find out what's on your mind ahead of Collingwood’s 11th prelim in 22 years

We spend the week off renaming Collingwood babies and magpie sculptures, discussing the Maynard shitstorm, deciphering the new culinary gameplan, preparing the premiership poster, and planning a glorious weekend of self-care and injury schadenfreude

Pie Hard returns for a bumper finals series featuring Qualifying Final predictions, selection conundrums, private jets, moon phases, Grand Final entertainment, Nick's knee cream, Fly's keynote and Oleg's underpants
