The Magpies' attack on Richmond was ferocious. They bullied, they were loud and they didn't let up for four quarters.

And that was only in the commentary box.

Not even the umpires were safe as Eddie McGuire got his way and didn't disappoint down with his unashamedly biased call of Collingwood's 34-point win against the Tigers.

Never had a regulation Steele Sidebottom mark received a torrent of adulation like this.

You'd think "Sidey'' had just equalled Leo Barry's feat when he marked unopposed and goaled from 10m in the first quarter, such were the screams of excitement from Fox Footy's all-Magpies commentary team.

And Tiger highlights were met with silence or uninspired descriptions from McGuire and Magpie offsiders Michael Christian, Tony Shaw and Peter Daicos.

"In the back SURELY, umpire!'' Ed bellowed as the passion began to escalate late in the first quarter.

"Five points down, we'll take that at (quarter-time). We don't want to give up a goal now,'' Ed followed up with, before on cue Jake King nailed a major.

Not even the Magpies were safe, with the trio grilling Ben Hudson in the second term when he failed to rush a behind, gifting Luke McGuane a "soft'' goal.

"That's shocking,'' Ed said.

"Hudson's got to smack that through,'' Christian added.

The call, dubbed Channel Ed's Black and White TV, became the Travis Cloke Show after half-time as the spearhead tore the Tigers apart.

"CLLOOOKKEEE!!!'' the callers screamed in unison each time he clunked a big grab.

"Clokey boy! Kicks his fourth for the quarter and the 'Pies are on fire at the MCG. Come on 'Pies!'' Ed said later that term.

When the star forward lined up from the Punt Rd pocket in the last, McGuire let loose at fans jeering him over the fence.

"That's as close as you'll get to greatness, ya peanut. Shut up! That's No. 7. Cop that, you Tiger mongrel!"

And the Magpie president had Steve Morris in his sights after the Tiger cleaned up Dane Swan off the ball.

It followed Morris flooring Jamie Elliott off the ball in the first half, and drew this reaction: "He's gone and done that twice now, Morris.''

As the Pies poured on eight consecutive goals in the third, Eddie cheekily remarked: "Welcome to the big time, Tigers!''

Sam Dwyer became Sammy, Cloke became Clokey boy and Scott Pendlebury was officially 'Pendles' on Channel Ed.

Every Dane Swan accolade was noted, we learnt Paul Seedsman's great-grandfather once chaired the 'Pies and there was little love from McGuire for Richmond's favourite sons.

"(Jack) Riewoldt's going berserk, we want to see more of that,'' he said.
