There are few things more ironic than the Collingwood Magpies team song. The last two lines are "The premiership's a cakewalk/For good old Collingwood". Well, let's see. Out of the last 12 grand finals Collingwood has played, they have lost 10, the 11th was a draw, and in the replay of it, they lost (so basically 11 out of 12). I believe the overall statistic is that they have won 14 grand finals, lost 39. Hardly a cakewalk. So my more accurate version reads "The premiership's hardly a cakewalk/For crap old Collingwood".
