Game Day AFL Round 4 - Collingwood vs Melbourne Matchday Discussion.

[Captivating]

Disgusted to say but kinda hope Dees win to quicken getting rid of bucks.

There may be good reason for this.

I get the feeling we'll be competing with the Tigers for a new coach and we need to move early to secure the best coach and not let the Tigers get the best available coach because we stubbornly refuse to move on Bucks.

 

[boxy99]

The pies give me no reason to think they can win.

I just want us to take the game on for once. Play on at every opportunity and pull the trigger and go down the middle!

If we lose by taking the game on I won't be to bothered but if we play the crap we have the last 3 weeks then I'll be pissed!

This is how we beat Richmond in the end, we moved fast because the time was running out. I no longer really mind the aimless bombs into f50, they're better than chip kicking sideways/backwards and then turning the footy over without even entering f50.

Goodness gracious, imagine we turn the season around and start winning more games than we lose. What a dilemma that would be!

Now I wouldn't go so far as to suggest that anyone who wants to see us lose this weekend isn't a 'true' Collingwood supporter, but gee it really does display a certain fetish for surrender and poverty of spirit.

 

[pablo disco bar]

I think everyone had so much hope and optimism going into the season and the tripe being served is dissapointing!! It's not that were losing its how were losing and even the win was a horribe win against an average team depleted by injuries

All the better if we can turn it around, but if our wins are just wallpaper over the cracks, then we should make the move ASAP so that we can get the jump on any other clubs who are looking for a new coach.

Agree. Take the Game on and try and win the Game

I also hate the Long Bombs into f50 to no one Pretickler

You are right.
You should be disgusted.

I want them to take the game on too, but I'll be PISSED if we lose.

Definitely hoping for some chains involving the likes of 7, 10, 18 and 22 that end up giving the forwards a decent chance of doing something.

The day you want your team to lose is the day you should stop following the sport.

After 3 weeks!!!

All I will say is I think Melbourne are a bit undervalued @ 3.25.

No club is allowed to approach another club's coaching staff during the season. Therefore there is no point doing anything until then.

Except everyone does it all the time and I don't think any club has actually been penalised by the AFL for doing it. Probably because they allow their franchise clubs to do it openly so they couldn't penalise anyone without shitting in their own nest.

No , no and no. Inexcusable behavior from a 'supporter' to wish our team to lose or a player to get injured so he can play fan favorites.

You think the 'best available coach' doesn't know that he can potentially pick between Tigers and Pies at the end of the season? Maybe even Fremantle
Tiggies are seasoned campaigners ( pun intended ) in making slow starts. Look at their previous seasons. They might make up for it and finish the season strongly. Maybe not reach finals but do you know what is enough to move Dimma on? Who got 3 years on his contract to go? Tiggies are not the kind of club to make a rash decision on their coach. And same for us. Eddie won't sack Bucks unless the coming weeks are a repeat of the last weeks.

And 14

 

[Go Pies!!!!!]

Good write up as usual, I hope we bring Cox in but not lose Moore ir Grundy wanna see them 2 in the forward line the whole game. Bucks has set the tone in the message to the members this week and I am predicting a line in the sand type of performance, if not I along with a lot will be very disappointed.

I'll be there cheering the boys on Pies by 25pts pendles BOG

I recall Bolton being appointed in August last year before the end of the season.

 

[jmac70]

Hawthorn gave permission for that to occur, it was also near the end of the year. You said we need to move on this ASAP. I don't think we do.

 

[schmuttt]

God imagine if its another draw

 

[jmac70]

God imagine if its another draw

I would actually take that.

 

[TradeDraft]

I would actually take that.

We play better and we get a Draw. Be better then last week

Or would you prefer he do a Bomber Thomson. He was on the chopping block before Geelong had a massive transformation and won three flags.
