The result wasn’t what we were after, but we still had plenty of fun at the MCG on Sunday.
Why?
For those of us operating in the social outer, the Magpie Army roared as cloud as ever as Social Sundays 3.0 took off for 2018.
#socialPIES was the hashtag to use and online was the place to be, with our supporters tweeting, posting and tagging us all day long as we fought for victory against West Coast.
While the team ultimately fell short, our supporters left nothing behind. From GIFs to timely one-liners, the Magpie Army didn’t miss a beat.
If there was a ladder for social strength, our #socialPIES would be the best in the league.
The major prize for the best #socialPIES work of the day earned Bose Quietcomfort 35 II Noise Cancelling headphones (valued at $499), while other prizes included:
- 125 Anniversary team-signed ISC playing guernsey
- A copy of the ‘One Grand Week’ book, signed by Nick Maxwell
- 1990 Premiership limited edition replica woollen guernsey
- A copy of ‘The Champions of Collingwood: 125 Greatest Magpies’ by Michael Roberts and Glenn McFarlane
All winners have been contacted privately.
Now it’s time to hand back over to you, the supporter, to sit back and enjoy some of the best work published by our #socialPIES.
Thank you to everyone who got involved. We’ll see you back online at the MCG this Saturday.
