Ok, get the provocative analogy.... The difference is that Bucks hasn't had 9 years as head coach. Now cheer up. _________________ Two more flags before I die! |

And if we don't win a flag in the next two years it's Maxwell out, Ball in with Maxwell going to the Blues.

Thoughts? |
Whilst I know the Buckley hate brigade will take any opportunity to have a go at Bucks, but this is ridiculous. Nick has told the supporters what he wants to do and coaching had nothing to do with it, so you want Ed to make a great Magpie legend do something he says he doesn't want to.
Stop this rubbish and give the current squad your support or just keep things to yourself. _________________ Happiness is being a Collingwood Football Club Member! Euphoria is watching the Pies win the Premiership! |

I love Maxy and think he could become a great coach, but not with us, at least not until every player he played with has retired, coaches coaching ex team mates almost always ends in tears, Woosha is the only one I can think of who's won a flag doing it, not sure if any of Roos ex team mates were in his 2005 premiership team. |
Barr Roos, coaching ex-teamates is destined to fail. I can't think of any other ones worldwide where it has succeeded. Shaw didn't work, Buckley hasn't worked, would we really go down that path again. _________________ Magpie Jumper Gallery:

I think "Nicks auto correct" kicked in
It was meant to read "Bring back Mick Malthouse"
Thank you Nicks auto correct! |

Given time I think Buckley will be fine, all new coaches are going to make mistakes as for Shaw I don't think he had the coaching instinct plus the cattle, and people around him.
Buckley's more a student of the game and doesn't seem to worry about losing 'friends' doing the job, I think Shaw wanted to remain the players friend while also being their coach.
Reminds me too much of a guy down here Kim Excell who didn't have the backbone to get hard on players, and force them to do stuff wanted to be liked as the nice guy he is. _________________ Ðavâgé

Yep. Get that succession plan in train now Eddie.

so I guess, now Lyon got his dockers hammered by the useless saint vomit, by the criteria of this dumb thread, Lyon should be sacked now, and replaced asap ?? _________________ Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.

No, Freo supporters accept mediocrity - hence they are unconcerned if their team doesn't win by 143 points every week. |

Maxy would be an ideal coach, he has passion & fire & would have the players behind him which Bucks has utterly failed to do. The respect the young players have for him is obvious on field and he understands the game in a way Buckley doesn't.
However we most certainly DO want him going elsewhere to learn from a gun coach before taking the reins. how many times must history show that going from player to coach at the same club doesn't work in the modern era, while players that begin their coaching careers elsewhere can become world-beaters, just look at the names! Sheedy, Malthouse, Eade, Matthews, Blight , etc. in fact most of the greats. The remainder are players that weren't club champions, Clarkson, Roos, Hafey etc. The one exception I can think of is Woosher at West Coast. Send Maxy off to Clarkson or Lyon to learn the trade, then bring him back. He has ALL the attributes of a senior coach, but most importantly he would have the guys behind him, without that a side will tumble down the ladder as we're doing, with the gliding angle of a brick! _________________ "If at first you dont succeed...

The dumb fans we have at Collingwood with their pea brain ideas are why two things are certain:
1. Democracy where the opinions of idiots is allowed wrecks great nations
2. Football fans with low IQ have no idea how to run a successful football club with their dumb idea's about coaching succession plans.
I thus ask: What would those who advocate a plan for Maxwell to coach know about coaching appointments?

An ideal coach would for starters want to do the job - Maxy has said he is not interested, admin & management is more his thing. _________________ If you are foolish enough to be contented, don't show it, but just grumble with the rest. - Jerome K Jerome |
