It's all about family. I can't think of one moment without my family being involved. Sitting at Vic Park as a child with my parents or attending now with my own children. Every memory of Collingwood is love, happiness, sometimes heartache.

I'd always been a Pies person, but the 2023 Grand Final really showed me how special the Magpie Army is. That was so amazing to be a part of!

My brother and I grew up avid Pies supporters from early childhood, thanks to our Dad's adoring love of the Collingwood Football Club. Some of my earliest memories are of us sitting on the steel benches at Vic Park (90s). The three of us joined as members about a decade ago and continued our shared love of the Club as proud members of the Magpie Army. In 2020, we suddenly lost our darling Dad and heartbreakingly had to learn how to navigate life without him. At first, going to the games without the man responsible for our love of the club left a feeling of an impossible void. Nowadays, however, it just brings me comfort. Being amongst the Black & White makes me feel more tethered to my Dad than any other time. He lives on through every cheer, every chant and most definitely through every "Good Old Collingwood Forever". Thank you for giving us that, Magpie Army.
