What's slower than Collingwood moving the ball in 2019? That's YouTube processing a video!

But here it is: the Round 15 episode of The Collingwood Rant!

And we're featuring:

-- a deconstruction of Collingwood's poor showings, and a statistical comparison with last year's form!
-- a new segment, 'The Horror ... The Horror ...' Can you guess what this will be about?
-- and a morbid preview of the upcoming battle against the Hawks.

Check us out!

And share the love!

What better way to follow an ugly loss than with an angry, angry Rant?

What are we looking at this week?

– what is this shitful style we're playing, who is responsible, and what does the foreseeable future hold?
– Media Mephitic looks not only at Collingwood in the media, but injuries in games experience, and Nathan Buckley's head-to-head against some of his contemporaries.
– a match preview of the upcoming junket over to the west to smash ... er, narrowly beat ... um, play the West Coast Eagles.

DON'T FORGET: don't use your mobile phone and watch The Rant at the same time!

You can find the episode on YouTube.

Ever get concerned about openly potting blokes in a public forum. I’m not saying what you’re saying is wrong, lots of flogs out there, just wondering if you’re concerned about reprisals.

Do you mean media or players?

I'm happy to be open about gutter journalism. I've always thought it's shit. And the problem is it's never held accountable. It becomes both the template and standard for the next wave of journalists. That's the example they follow.

Equally, I've commended genuinely good football journalism, by people such as Rohan Connolly, Glenn McFarlane, etc. I like these journalists, because they just focus on the footy. They talk about the game. They don't rake through garbage. They don't sensationalise little things, e.g. Damien Barrett making news about Jordan de Goey being caught on his phone while driving.

Obviously, there are going to be big stories, e.g. Jaidyn Stephenson's betting scandal. But you can report that and you can even speculate, without trying to create a story (e.g. a riff inside Collingwood), or condemning events that are unrelated, (e.g. Mark Robinson asking if there should be an asterisk next to Steph's torp goal -- when it was proven this goal actually cost Steph a leg of his multi, did Robinson hold up his hand and say he was wrong?).

Re the players, we just call it the way we see it. We'll give plaudits where they're due, and criticise when they're not.

If you're interested, here are two articles I wrote and had published on The Roar re how I feel about today's standard of journalism ...

* Media issues symptomatic of our sense of entitlement
* The ugly side of the fourth estate

When it comes to Collingwood, the question 'why' is often bandied about, particularly as a season has ended in a spectacular, fiery mess.

Now at the Rant, we get to ask, 'Why?'

Sly and Spook break down the Preliminary Final loss, and rant their way through to catharsis.

Or at least try to.

At times like this, only three letters remain: 'CSM'.

Check out the Preliminary Final Episode on YouTube.
