Still shit coaching. Goals from stoppages, cant defend kickouts and cant find a decent defensive structure behind the ball.

On top of that early we had old Dale "game changer" Thomas gifting them goals. The coaches mate !

channel 7's presentation is appalling

shit camera angles
over use of the zoom into contests so you cant work out what the @#$%&! is going on in context to the rest of the ground
shocking commentary
wanky gimmicks like mega wall

combined with ugly football and its a pretty shit package

Simmo, Walker, McLean, Carazzo so so poor it's not funny.

Simmo has escaped criticism IMO, he has been so poor especially over the last month or so.

Walker whom we signed for 3 years fumbles, misreads the ball, and is generally shit.

McLean, how the flying F&$c does he keep on getting games, throwing a brick will move faster than him.

Omg so frustrating.

Can't agree with that, he's a very dependable defender.

Walker used to be a fine player, especially that year he became a goalkicker. What happened?

We have allot of blokes who try out as punters in the NFL.. Geez they get some hang time...

Yarran, just keeps on getting better, should start playing roles in the midfield...

FMD how many time late in games is Brock gunna kill us.?


Just Brock, what about Curnows howler?

Surely that's Brock's last game, Army's also. Too many dumb footballers suffering from a clueless coach who takes a quarter or two to work out the matchups.


I pointed out Brock because I reckon he's done that 4 times this year late in games.

This.
Week after week.

Simple misses. You don't mind if they moss from the boundary of from fifty but we miss regularly from 0-30.

Murphy would have to be one of the most unreliable kicks for goal from 30 metres almost in front in the entire comp.
I blasted him for missing two from 15-20 out against the WCE in the second semi and got pilloried for it but he does it time and again.

And for those who are blaming Curnow, he lobbed that kick to the corridor and it cost us dearly but at the same time when you are 9 down with a minute to play there is no point playing safe. nd he broke his leg six weeks ago. he can play his role but it isn't to be the skilled playmaker across half back.

We should havewon this. First quarter and shit kicking cost us.

However, we are heading for a top five draft pick in a draft full of tall players.

Can't fault effort for three quarters. Collingwood aren't that good. Recent results have been poor.

Simply lack class and ability to use ball and finish. Need to add some real talent to list.

Yarran, Simpson, Judd good.

They run the ball out of defence, whereas we kick the ball out 1985 style.

They have a good future Collingwood due to their recruiting.

We needed goal poachers at the end ... the best one we had we sold off to Adelaide so MM could bring his favourite boy in.

Our players had flair, but Malthouse has ripped it apart.

Yeah Armfield and Brock are cooked I reckon
Waite got injured in the 2nds according to Jon Ralph
Garlett didn't do much in the 2nds either.

Give Graham a go next week in place of Brock.
and play Johnson for a full game

Simpson good, which game did you watch? For a leader of the club and what he is capable of he is quite poor right now.

constantly beaten on the lead
turns the ball over too often
rarely if ever helps out a team mate or jumps in 3rd man

he is another thornton

rowe is our best defender

Yep, he's up front letting the ball come out too easy and missing easy snaps while Murph has to stand in the hole to get poleaxed by Cloke.!!!!!!!!!


Should have got Young or kept Eddie or got a priority pick.

See you in a month Carlton. Try and at least win one game in that time, okay?

I cannot not believe I would be saying this, but "I agree".

Jamison thinks he is hot shi*
