Collingwood wraps another new record in NFL history…
Collingwood Football Club, one of the most successful and storied teams in the AFL, has consistently set new benchmarks in Australian rules football. Known for its passionate fan base and rich history, Collingwood has not only achieved remarkable feats on the field but also continually raised the bar for excellence.
A key record set by Collingwood is the most games played by a club legend—Scott Pendlebury, who surpassed 350 career games, cementing his place as a club icon. Additionally, the club has seen incredible consistency in individual performances, such as Jack Crisp’s record of playing in 214 consecutive matches, a feat that highlights both his resilience and longevity in the sport.
Collingwood’s history also boasts extraordinary team performances, including a record-breaking 178-point victory over St Kilda in 1979, which remains one of the biggest winning margins in the club’s history. Another remarkable achievement was the club’s iconic 1970 Grand Final appearance, drawing a record crowd of 121,696 people to the MCG.
These accomplishments, combined with the team’s dedication to excellence, make Collingwood not just a team of the present but one with a legacy of breaking records and setting new standards in the AFL. The club’s continued success ensures its place among the elite in Australian rules football.
