Collingwood Football Club, the most famous sporting club in Australia. Despite being the major headliner through the Sixties, Seventies and Eighties, Collingwood had not tasted the ultimate success since 1958. The Road to Victory has been tough and laced with emotion and ridicule... for 32 years. In 1990 however, the hoodoo was finally broken. The Road to Victory follows the build up throughout the season, and the ultimate success and scenes of unbridled joy as the most loved and hated football club took the grand prize at last.

Persistent 'Pies

Documentary

1992

I 1992, Collingwood had to battle against the most overwhelming odds, but throughout the trials and tribulations, the Magpies stood tall. Before the season began, we lost Darren Millane in a tragic car accident. Doug Barwick, Premiership player in 1990, was ruled out of action when he shattered a knee, then midway through the season, Craig Kelly also injured his knee. Through sheer guts and determination, Collingwood repeatedly shut down opposition big guns, reduced games to tight contests and greeted the final siren triumphant. In the end the well of good fortune would dry up, but not before another stirring fightback. When the book is written about '92, Collingwood will be remembered for two things - its competitiveness and its heart.
