01:15
SCORE
GOAL - Bombers (Zach Merrett)
01:20
GOAL BOMBERS - Finally, Essendon has returned to the MCG! The handball comes out to Zach Merrett who snaps truly. Essendon have kicked a goal. Yes, that's right.
02:46
SCORE
BEHIND - Magpies (Jarrod Witts)
02:50
BEHIND MAGPIES - Witts gets a rare chance here against Fletcher who is well on top in that battle. Witts sends it on it's way. There's some premature proclamations from the fans, but it's a behind.
04:30
The next goal is very important. If Essendon gets it then it's game on. If Collingwood get it, then it could well be game off!
05:30
If Essendon kicks the next goal we also get a Spice Girls moment. In terms of Collingwood's lead it will be a case of 'When Two Becomes One'. Are Essendon Spice Girls fans? Time will tell.
06:20
Chapman has been knocked from pillar to post today and he is now getting his ankle strapped.
07:00
SCORE
BEHIND - Magpies (Travis Cloke)
07:05
BEHIND MAGPIES - Swan tries to negotiate his way through traffic but gets held up. He wants that Anzac Medal! He offloads to Cloke who misses.
08:02
SCORE
GOAL - Bombers (Jackson Merrett)
08:30
GOAL BOMBERS - It's a brotherly affair for Essendon as Jackson Merrett marks just inside 50 and kicks the goal. The Merretts have kicked back to back goals for Essendon.
10:00
It's 8 points the difference with Collingwood holding on as Essendon begin to press.
10:45
GOAL MAGPIES - Elliott must have some sailing experience because he has steadied the ship with a driving shot from 40 metres out that comes round nicely. 14 points is the lead.
10:46
SCORE
GOAL - Magpies (Jamie Elliott)
12:00
Another Collingwood goal and Essendon will start singing the Shampoo classic called 'Trouble'. Collingwood may have come along and burst their bubble.
13:00
Essendon have it on the wing with Hurley giving his handball way too much air. He makes it easy for Collingwood to punch it out for a throw in.
14:10
BEHIND BOMBERS - A rushed behind by Collingwood brings the margin back to 13 points.
14:15
SCORE
BEHIND - Bombers (Rushed)

SCORE
BEHIND - Bombers (Jason Winderlich)
15:30
BEHIND BOMBERS - Winderlich marks the Zaharakis shot in the pocket. He runs around but misses to the near side.
16:18
SCORE
BEHIND - Bombers (Rushed)
16:20
BEHIND BOMBERS - Zaharakis can't make the distance from 40 metres out and it's punched through by Keefe.
16:30
11 points the difference with Collingwood leading. Young is out of the game along with Fasolo so they are down a rotation. Could be important in the wash up.
18:00
BEHIND BOMBERS - Merrett of the Jackson variety marks in the pocket. The kick looks good off the boot, but it slides across into the post.
18:04
SCORE
BEHIND - Bombers (Jackson Merrett)
19:00
Just under 8 minutes to go with none of the 91,731 footy fans in attendance leaving their seats.
19:34
SCORE
GOAL - Magpies (Dane Swan)
19:35
GOAL MAGPIES - From the stoppage Swan grabs it and kicks is fourth. He wants another medal to add to his collection and could pinch it from Beams, Pendlebury and Sidebottom.
20:40
Collingwood fans are really getting involved in the game and why wouldn't they with their team ahead by 16 points.
22:19
SCORE
BEHIND - Bombers (Rushed)
22:20
BEHIND MAGPIES - Elliott punches the ball through for a rushed behind when a mark may have been an easier option.
23:10
Time is running out for Essendon with only five minutes remaining. They need three unanswered goals.
24:07
SCORE
BEHIND - Magpies (Travis Cloke)
24:10

24:47
SCORE
BEHIND - Magpies (Heritier Lumumba)

Essendon missed Goddard today who would have been more than handy with his experience and ability.
27:20
The Collingwood cheer squad have claimed victory and are chanting the name of the team they support loudly and proudly.
28:09
SCORE
GOAL - Magpies (Brodie Grundy)
28:10
GOAL MAGPIES - Grundy takes a good pack mark then goes back to 50 and slots it through. A wonderful goal and not a bad way to ice the cake for the Magpies.
29:40
Carlisle takes a belated mark with under 30 seconds remaining. His kick sums up his afternoon. Out of bounds on the full.
30:16
FULL TIME - The final siren sounds and it's all over. Collingwood kicked 12 of the last 14 goals to record a famous 23 point win over arch rivals Essendon.
