Post subject: Timmy of Thomastown gets it after Carey praises Buckley. | |
|
In today's Age Wayne Carey gives a ringing endorsement of the Pies' season. But you should read the comments under the article from Collingwood supporters.
Timmy from Thomastown hits so many nails on the head in this one I thought people just had to read it.
Quote: | What needs thorough examination is the issue of recurring injuries within the current group and recruitment of players with histories of major injury issues, Scharenberg, picked ahead of Aish amongst other gun first year players came to us with a major foot issue, needing rehabilitation even before he arrived. He now has a potentially career ruining ACL tear before he has played senior football. Nathan Freeman has done the same hamstring 3 times in his first season, has yet to make a senior appearance, yet already carries a chronic injury. Ben Reid? ruined by too many premature comebacks.
Former long-time fitness head Chris Buttifant left the club after questioning the harsh training regime imposed by the current coach and look at what has happened since
We train too hard, without any variation. We play this way as well, absolutely dependant on 100% physical ferocity 100% of each and every game. We never seem to play anything resembling tempo footy through a game, never giving our players any respite, leading to terrible skills and ultimately, injuries. We seem to believe in working harder, not smarter. The coach overcame his deficiencies by working harder than anybody else around him and became an almost-champion; his error is in his certainty that this is the prescription for all who would become elite.
He has retired Luke Ball and now it appears that Dayne Beams wants out as well. We had 7 injury-forced changes last weekend and yet he dropped Ben Kennedy. I have lost faith in Buckley and by extension McGuire, Eade and the whole senior coaching panel. I hope that they are not so deeply embedded within this that they cannot see these realities, but ego generally trumps honesty, so I am not terribly optimistic that anything will improve next year.

Yeah I read this earlier this morning, but of course the blind faithful here will hound it down and continue on their merry pilgrimage towards premiership obscurity (see how meaningless this eye rolling is, but I must admit.. it's a lot of fun). _________________ All Aboard!! Choo Choo!!! |

A lot of rubbish... why would you need to quote an external source Collie when the same BS is sprouted on Nicks by a host of "perceptive fellow", glass half empties and trolls? _________________ Love us or Hate us... we are Collingwood - you can't ignore the Mighty Magpies!!! |

Did Buttifant leave questioning anything? I thought he just got an offer to go and work with his mate? |

Pretty obvious that Robbo is into ghost writing. Reads like the type of tripe he writes. _________________ All this may be summed up in one word - CHARACTER - and if that is not worth developing, nothing is.

Glad to see Timmy on board, better late than never I suppose, but it looks like we're going to have to waste yet another year, when Buckley is sacked in around 12 months I think it might be time for Eddie to go as well. _________________ Defender...........

Timmy isn't blaming the fitness staff, he's blaming Buckley directly for the injuries, most of us know why Butters left. _________________ Defender...........
