Of course they'd do better. Hell, we played a team missing 5 of their best players but they had a game plan, discipline, structure and have effective disposal. Something sadly missing in Buck's team.
Stop looking for ways to excuse Bucks for the shit happening at Collingwood right now. He selected his support staff, he decided on this new game plan, he decides what goes on at training. Simply put, he's fcuked it all up. |
SO genius, by your criteria, last night, with five gone within minutes, somehow clarko, lyon, scott ect would have somehow, manufactured some miracle win, with five top players out ??. Get real, how can you have a game plan when your cattle to implement it has been literally decimated ?? |
Thats a reason for one week. Not the last 3 years. No more excuses please. This tweet below says a lot.
@OzzdeBondt: @Robbo_heraldsun like: GWS losing Davis/Ward/Patton akin to C'wood losing Beams/Cloke/Reid. Similar oppositions. GWS won their match. #heart |
Melbourne are shite just like us but were also tanking just like us.
Second last was on the line today for them.

LOL!
But its alright, people get called "perceptive fellow" when they predict we will lose games like this... |
No you don't. Get it right please.
The "perceptive fellow" (who will ALWAYS remain "perceptive fellow") were the usual suspects early in the seaon who were whinging, sooking and whining when the team was winning. Those who ETERNALLY, PERPETUALLY, ALWAYS only ever see the negative side of ANY Cpllingwood game. |

However, our intensity and abililty to man up on the opposition was really weak. Even without key players, we should have been able to be at the ball at the same time as the opposition. The fact that we were completely unable to do this was very disappointing, and we must ask: is this a fault in the coaching? |
I will say that not ONE AFL coach would have won with the setbacks we had on Saturday with five top players out, in addition to the other existing club injuries and lack of current fitness in others just returning from long term injuries. Anyone saying anything else is talking bloody football drivel or with a hidden agenda in mind, in my humble opinion........  |

No one else fit who hadn't played a game. And I reckon TA was bloody stiff to be dropped in the first place so good selection in the end.... |

I thought Rodney Eade played this role?
And can someone closely connected to the club please confirm or deny that we HAVE had a specialist kicking coach all season (hidden from the public), and that he was Nathan Chapman? |

I think he wanted to win the award for a player out the longest ever period with a hamstring injury..... Happened in Feb at a NAB cup game down in Geelong.  |

I did JW. So is this information about Nathan Chapman being our specialst kicking coach correct or not? The person who told me this stuff also stated that Nathan Chapman was forever being frustrated by the Sport Sclientist guys at the club who didn't want players practising their kicking for fear of injury. True or false JW??? |

Grow up, you're like petulant spoilt brats with all your sooking and whining, not to mention the bloodlust.
I'm not happy with our performance but don't see it as a cue to start eating our own ala Richmond. |
Total waste of time Daz. NOW you understand the frustration I went though weeks ago with these same negative nellies (although then you had a go at me for confronting and challenging these very "perceptive fellow" sooks!!!)
These posters with not so hidden agendas will never stop flashing their unintelligent brains until they see Buck's head on a platter.....
It is a season long relentless lobbying effort that started well before the losses took place, when only Piesnchess, Member and I recognised what was really going on........ |

Well go on you f_ckheads, go lobby the club to sack Buck's. Why whinge here to us you wankers, go cry us a frigging river at the club and to Eddie.   |

Yep - well said Robbo - University would have beaten Melbourne yesterday, and we played in our 7th grand final this year - can anyone tell me how Footscray have gone after winning their flag against us. Ifs, buts maybees for all the doomsday stuff Gerad Healey noted the other day that after watching a nab cup game with Keefe and Frost as the main backs he thought we would get smashed. If Clinton Young takes that mark we play finals with the sceond youngest squad in the comp. Get some perspective. It hurts at the moment. I want it to hurt - I dont want this oh we won a few games when it didnt matter crap. The form in rounds 2-11 will come back with stronger, bigger, tougher kids.
And can someone ask Robbo whether Essendon have been able to answer the: can you confirm exactly what you were injecting 17 and 18 year olds with question yet.
