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

Pie Hard turns to the people to address your questions and anxieties, feat. dirty grand final apparel, Nick VS Josh, our preferred finals matchup, Fly's mind games, a Malthouse return, ice cold Crownies, Jarrod 'druid' Wade, and our plans for a Collingwood army fleet of lime scooters

Pie Hard rediscovers the club's mojo with a brand new Terrace Talk, juicy red wine replay, Ginni and the recipe of team selection, Bobby's break-out, the Moore injury, Nick's bone broth, Fly's man crush, Ken Done pastels, and is it finally time for a Jarrod Wade badge?

We bemoan the lack of red wine, unpick the team malaise, and dissect the three act structure of the Collingwood season, plus a secret visit to the halls of power, navigating life after wholesome, Damien's Daicos family connection, and our foolproof recipe for getting the team back on track

We chat apparel jinxes, ins & outs, the Howe move and the Cox question plus Daicos contract extensions, Jeff Browne hair extensions, the IQ fragrance, Magpie cookware and Heretier’s new business

We chat love bombing Fly and bully boy Ken, goon bags or aperol spritz, football therapy, Nathan's string, that Beau McCreery kick, the Mason Seinfeld jibe, Graham’s signing spree, plus the deliciously low stakes Carlton game and finding the gumption to mention the P word
