It truly is a horrible feeling. I was devo after 02 & 03 but I thought we would be right. I was at the 2010 GF (the draw), as I live in Brisbane I couldn't afford to stay another week so I missed the replay. I was at 2011, it sucked but knowing we won the year before softened the blow. This...

12-2 is what my father would be on I reckon, and yes the best team definitely won. I honestly don't know how you guys butter up and go again after losing 12 GFs. This is not to say I am not proud of our boys or what we achieved this year, it's just for once I would like lady luck to be on our...

This loss stings and it will sting for a long, long time. Since my time following Collingwood I have now seen 4 losses, 1 draw and 1 win, this is considered good for a Collingwood fan (I am only 26). I don't know how the older fans do it, particularly those that grew up between 1958-1990 (like...

I am not much older than you, I don't have the glorious memories of Vic Park that some of the other posters have but I am a fourth generation pies fan that was born in the early '90's so I will offer a different take. I live interstate and didn't get to a game until I was 15. I first started...

I think everyone is still hurt from last weeks game.

Honestly I don't know, I would leave that to the coaching staff as they know more about the game than me. I am just saying that our season is over so lets try and change things up a bit. There's a bit of a difference though in quality between VFL and AFL, what might work in VFL won't necessarily...

Well as it stands we just got flogged by 10+goals so we might as well experiment. I would rather us try a few things different and get flogged then do the same old stuff and get flogged.

Since our season is effectively over though I would like us to experiment with a few things, treat it like a pre season game if you will.

Yeah agree, would much rather play Grundy/Witts and cox over Kreuzer. I think we should look past our hate for Carlton because a player like Yarran is something we really need.

Anyone but the hawks. But it would take a monumental screw up for them to lose. I think Richmond are a smokey. Sneak in the 4 and they are good enough to beat anyone on their day.

I tell ya what, if we played the saints at anytime/anywhere during that month of brave losses we would wipe the floor with them. Right now it would be 50/50 and we are rooted.

Bruh you lost?

The wheel will eventually turn. It will only take until the next coach comes up with a game plan/structure/tactic that dominates the current one and the Clarkson clones will be stumped as their tactics become outdated. Think back to 2010/11 when all of Malthouses lieutenants got cherry picked...

I would say that the game is becoming alot more Americanized than just basketball exclusively. It appears that a mixture of Gridiron and basketball is in play. someone can correct me here as my knowledge on NFL is limited but I say gridiron because defensive set ups are similar where the...

Yup, yesterday sucked balls. I was absolutely fuming. I had to avoid coming on here and post on emotion. I understand why everyone does, we love this club and we are so emotionally invested in it, we plan our weekends and organise events around the weekends games (well I do anyway) so when we...

Yeah I like your thinking but he is vital to our midfield setup. We could probably try it now as our season is over and try give the kids a run through there for the experience.

With finals now ruled out guys like Maynard have to play, let them play the remaining games and just see what they can do. I think this game, and the remaining few, will show the true character of our young guys, yeah our season is over but lets not throw the towel in and lets finish 2015 on a...

Yeah bit disgusted with some of the stuff I have read in this thread. He is just a young kid (still a teenager?) who has moved interstate away from his family and spent the better part of 2 years on the sideline due to injury. Mentally he would be vulnerable and right now the lure to move back...

hey mate sorry for the late reply, i barely go on this but funnily enough I was at the skycity on the weekend. first time I had visited there in 4-5 years. Was very impressed with the sports bar, would definitely go back there to watch the footy.

Yup N.T thunder is pretty much bang on the buck here. Yeah it is almost impossible to find a pub/club in Darwin that will play both the footy and sound it's frustrating. My advice is to ring a few of the pubs/clubs and ask them if they do and make sure you emphasise that you really need sound...

He sounds very similar to former Lions defender Darryl White. Darryl was one of my tutors when I was at high school, he was retired from AFL at that stage. He was one of the funniest blokes and would always talk about how he was the best player on the lions team and how he carried them. He would...

Lets bring him in. I think it's a bit late to correct clokes technique as I believe it is mostly in his head. But Lloyd would have a wealth of knowledge which he could pass onto our next generation of talls (Moore, Gault etc) and he could be alot more than just our kicking coach with helping the...

Yeah I lived in Brisbane for a few years and loved it there but there's just something about Melbourne that I love about it. Currently in the build up now and it is crucifying me at the moment haha. But the rain is a welcome sight, cooling it down and greening the place up a bit. I just...

I fuel my commodore ute up at a united servo so I better start seeing some discounts!

Hahaha I nearly got nabbed by those bastards up in Brisbane when I was living there. Not very nice people and I've heard from a few sources that they are campaigners of the highest order.

Currently live in Darwin (vic park was just something i picked when i first started my account) and there's plenty of work. But thinking of a change, have been to Melbourne a few times and absolutely love it down there. I am currently a bar tender although I have done landscape/gardening for a...

Hello fellow magpie supporters! I am thinking of moving to Melbourne for a change of scenery (and watch the mighty pies live a bit more) but I was wondering where do I start? Is it hard to find a job? What are some key points of information that I should know before I move? Any information...

Damn man, you got reamed in that deal :drunk:

Yeah and we'd love nothing more than to beat a top 4 side like Sydney on their home turf again but it kinda gets old after doing it for a decade, so perhaps you guys come down to the G once in awhile and play us, who knows you might actually go better than your last outing at the G. I think you...
