Yet Sydney are not considered an unsuccessful team (yes I know, COLA etc.)
I know there are a lot of words to wade through but I did also compare us to most other teams as well

I said the same thing - we’re just a Ball/Jolly move away from a flag, and we might be halfway there if Beams comes good

Pandemic schamdemic. Nothing can hold back The Collingwood Rant.
Sly and Spook are back with episode two for 2020. They take an extremely belated look at Collingwood's smashing win over the Western Bulldogs.
A new segment, "If It Was Collingwood ..." looking at the double standards in the media and how Collingwood is always exploited for clicks.
And then, a look at the AFL's plan to continue the season throughout 2020.
Check out Episode 2.

Many thanks for that Sly and Spook. A very entertaining mix of humour and spot on commentary.... prime example of this is the "If it was Collingwood" segment!!! |

All good no talk on the upcoming match v Richmond though. And how we will go for the rest of the season. Talk based on politics too much. |

Post subject: The Round 5 Episode of The Collingwood Rant is now up! | |
|
The Collingwood express continues its sprint into oblivion. Losses, scandals, fleeing the state, this club is now doing it all!
This week:
- What more can you say about the humiliating loss to the Bombers? Well, Sly and Spook somehow manage to find the words, and they’re not pretty.
- As Sly and Spook prepared for the Sidebottom Crisis, the de Goey Crisis popped up. What is with all the crises at Collingwood? Why do they hit with such regularity? Is there something worse festering at the heart of the club?
- How do you preview a clash where the head-to-head is 1-9? Well, who knows, but Sly and Spook try!
With Victoria going into lockdown, the Rant is providing a valuable outlet.
Stay safe and healthy with two guys who drink lots of beer, swear lots, and who Collingwood have aged prematurely!

It's the outlier Rant -- the one that comes out on Thursdays!
Just like Collingwood's performance -- nothing but an outlier, even if the symptoms have been developing over the last eighteen months.
We look at the debacle against the Eagles, the greater problems within the team's performance, and the upcoming sleep-inducing clash against the Dockers.
Check out the Round 8 Episode.

Post subject: The Round 13 Episode of The Collingwood Rant is now up! | |

What’s uglier than the Mona Lisa after it’s gone through a shredder?
That would be Collingwood’s first half against North Melbourne.
But, after a hideous first half, Collingwood clicked into gear.
They started finding the ball.
They started running.
They started moving it quickly.
And, goddamnit, full credit to Collingwood.
They were able to put in a mediocre performance!
Is it a false dawn? (Not like we’ve had any of those at Collingwood before.)
Is it the hint of something more? (Not like we’ve hoped for that before.)
Is the premiership … er, a grand final appearance still a possibility?
Find out … on The Rant!

It’s the rant you want to hear!
Or you don’t!
It’s a rant that’s insightful!
Or it isn’t!
It’s a rant with plenty of exclamation marks!
Except when they’re not in use.
Sly and Spook look at the loss to Port Adelaide, the usual systemic problems, and what’s missing from Collingwood.
There’s also Media Mephitic, and a preview of the first final against West Coast.
All on The Rant!

Here we go!
The Rant to end all Rants.
Well, maybe not.
We look fleetingly at the loss to Geelong in the semi final with some startling new intel.
We explore the protracted Adam Treloar saga and the list management debacle.
Then it's a self-examination of Collingwood's empty self-aggrandisement.
As well as thoughts on coaching and administrative staff.
And more. Much, much more.
Collingwood truly deserves it.
All on The Rant!

it was an absorbing discussion between the two of you, especially in relation to wtf is the club doing?
The little tid-bit about Bucks deciding to switch game plans between the WC and Geelong games, and then Pendles going to talk to him with concerns (and not getting them addressed apparently) had me bolting upright in my chair!! |

A lot of clubs are trading ...with good news
All the good trades appear to be done, what players are left for us?
For Collingwood, nothing but bad news, what's there to look forward to? _________________ Think MAGPIES...winning the Flag this year! |

Same. Would love to know the source here? #fakenews? _________________ The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after. |

It could be #fakenews, Haff. Just relaying what I was told.
Not going into names -- I hear things from various different sources. And I do qualify when it's just what I've heard.
If I'm certain, I'll say it. |
