Yep. After a quiet return from injury, Beams is really hitting his one-paced, slow, outside, hack straps again - he's the secret ingredient for genuine success against the Bears. |

I've said in a few earlier posts that a few of our players need a rocket up their rear ends given some of the performances I've witnessed. I'm glad Buckley has finally read the riot act to the players. It's obvious to me that Buckley loves the players and the players love him back. But love will get you only so far. It's a war zone out on the footy field and that's the way the players should treat it. |

Been injured all season. Second game back. Still played OK before being taken off at three quarter time. |

Great win last night by the boys, really pleased they showed a bit of fight and tenacity.
But we have to now back up this effort against the cats (we don't have to win) just play with some of the same fight we showed. If we can't then we are back in the same place we were the week before. _________________ "To know nothing of events before your birth, is to forever remain a child" - Cicero (Roman Lawyer/Senator) 46 BCE. |

Anyone heard the term flat track bullies before? Our list is top 6 worthy and has been for the last 4 years. Until we do it for 4 quarters against a half decent side we are kidding ourselves. We lost to carlton FFS???? And primarily due to a coaching staff that refused to just go man on man.
Respectable win tonight. But tonight is nothing I didnt expect vs the lions before the season started. And I expected us to beat St Kilda, Melbourne and Carlton before the season started. Tonight is hardly anything to crow about. We beat a bottom 4 side, hurrah! |
I hear what you are saying but had we won by 10-20 points or god forbid, lost, people on your negative mind set would say we should have won by 70-80 points. Well, we did just that, so try and enjoy it. I reckon Sydney, Nth, GWS, Geelong would have beaten them by a similar margin laast night and they are in the top bracket apparently.
As for the Carlton game, its done, it hurt but it's time to get over it and move on. _________________ kymbo |

The source is impeccable Mugwump. This isn't a mate of a mate sort of thing. It comes from within. It definitely happened and from what I was told, the leadership players loved it. I gather there has been a feeling that Bucks backs the players a bit too much. He never names individuals and even when the dogs are barking in Nick's, he resists the urge to join in. Smart man that Bucks. _________________ After the epic draw comes the decisive knockout!

After what pendles said yesterday and what Bucks said on 360 Monday night, my source was right on the money. Think I'll start buying him a few more brandies. Actually, he has never delivered much in the past despite my begging. _________________ After the epic draw comes the decisive knockout!

Interesting that Pendles thought Buckley wasn't hard enough on the players (as mentioned on SEN this morning)... _________________ There is Collingwood and then the rest. |

I heard that the new consultant hired to lead the team review and discussions was hard - real hard and ruthless… i think his name was jez…?
Unfortunately he burnt too bright and after his 'golden spray' has not been seen since? Rumours going around the club is that he was either an angel sent from above or perhaps the anti-christ from the other place! _________________ Love us or Hate us... we are Collingwood - you can't ignore the Mighty Magpies!!! |

Jez07 has done his job.
He has shook up the place and he will be back.
He is connected very well to the Pies and is going nowhere.
Well at least he made Nicks a bit more interesting for a while. _________________ we don't eat our own at collingwood we just allow them to foul our nest. |
