Reckon this injury crisis will see Buckley sacked at years end.

His inability to prevent these overuse injuries will see him told to DCM.

Shouldn't stop there though.
With Reid possibly being dead, I think Eddie, Pert and Balme should go too
Clearly they are all responsible for this tragedy

Now, can we get someone like you interested in fixing things up down there, your reasoned approach to things is what we need

Captain must go down with the ship.

If Reid is indeed dead, as is almost certain, then Edward McGuire and Nathan Buckley must die too. Where's the Kool Aid.

No, I think we need to MAKE COLLINGWOOD GREAT AGAIN. We want someone who would BUILD A DEFENSIVE WALL AND MAKE THE REST OF THE COMPETITION PAY FOR IT.

Here is a job application I saw from a great candidate who has what it takes, and I think we should take him seriously.

"Collingwood? Let me tell you something about Collingwood. Now I happen to be quite an expert in footballs, and woods, and it's very well known that my opinion counts for a lot in these things. Reporters, pay tv types, Bigfooty gurus like Adam H, all the polls, they say Trump's the go-to guy when you want the latest on that. Trump knows footballs, they all tell me. It's a fact. I've been making deals in the footballs for a long time. And not your average everyday balls, no little tiny Cruz and Obama sized balls at a Trump hotel. I'm talking about high grade balls, the very best of balls, you understand. Gold, platinum, all of your classier metals, that's what you'll find at my resorts and casinos. All of the guests at my Trump Atlantis resort, they come up to me after dining on USDA prime angus steaks, those mouth-watering steaks you can only find at world-class restaurants and exclusively through The Sharper Image with my Trump Steaks brand, the very best steaks you can buy, with my beautiful silverware, and they say, 'Donald, I have never seen such rare and expensive balls as are on display at your five star resorts and casinos. Where do you find such balls?' And I tell them I know all there is to know about balls, both foot and the other type. You could say, and people have said it, very influential people say it, they say it all the time: that Donald Trump is THE foremost expert on balls."

"And it's because I know people. I make deals. I negotiate the lowest and best prices for the finest quality balls too. I do it all the time. Not like Buckley here, who to put it frankly, doesn't know his balls the way I do. Now Nathan's a good friend, Bucks and I go way back, so I hate to say it, but Nathan doesn't know his balls, doesn't know his foots, doesn't know his offside and such from a hole in the ground. Totally ignorant about it. A very low energy guy, this Buckley. Came up in life the hard way, dug his way out of a small sewer or Brisbane or whatever. And it shows. Nathan Buckley would never be admitted to one of my top-rated golf courses, the groundskseeper would take one look at Bucks and he'd say, 'This guy looks like a bum. Probably dug his way out of Brisbane, or another third world country, or something. Probably the sort of guy who would trash one of our exclusive golf carts' And who can blame him? Everybody come round and look at this guy Buckley: he's wearing a black and white t-shirt or some shit. Jesus Christ, is that what you wear to a business gathering, among all these business heavyweights? No class. And no black and white, not at any of my hotels and resorts, which are consistently rated five stars, the best in the world. I wouldn't let someone wearing that t-shirt at the training hole at a Putt-Putt Goofy Golf in Fargo North Dakota, and I sure as hell wouldn't allow one at the Trump golf course and country club at Mar-A-Lago, the finest in south Florida, where the waiting list for a guest reservation is six months, the most exclusive golf resort in the United States of America."


"Some people may say I'm engaging in baseless insinuations. I insinuate nothing. That would be a lie, and unlike some people I could name, I was raised never to tell a lie. I'm just telling the truth about this Buckley guy, who begged like a cripple in the streets to get a reservation at my Trump Hotel on Fifth Avenue in New York City. I told him no, because I don't want my guests exposed to some hick from the boondocks of Brisbane or Melbourne or who gives a shit who is a complete and total failure in life. My guests appreciate the finer things, and they're sure to get them at any of my hotels, resorts, and casinos, not like this Nathan Buckley, who between you and me looks like a hobo with a tin cup in his hands. Probably buys his suits off the rack at Peter Jackson to go with that cheap t-shirt. I'm sorry to say it Bucks, but you're a loser. And as for that Balme...Balme...whatsisname? Know about footballs? Got a football factory or two in Chile or Tijuana or someplace I never heard of, right? Now don't take that as an offense against Tijuana. They love me in Tijuana, the little brown people. Let me tell you something about footballs. I buy only the best and most luxurious footballs in the world, and at bargain prices, because I'm such a great negotiator. I get up at 4 in the morning, every morning, and I'm working the phones, trying to wheel and deal, and succeeding I might add, in the markets. They all know me in the markets, the big footballs agents, and they say 'Oh no, it's Donald Trump, come to skin us alive on another deal.' But they can't resist me, because they know their footballs will be on display at the greatest hotels in all of the world's most beautiful cities. Not at all like the tarnished stuff that my good friend Balme, a great guy but he wasn't even born in America, what the hell kind of name is Balme anyway? Sounds like something you need after you get a dose at a cathouse in Reno. And that Davoren...anyway, like I was saying, all of the right people, the experts, the Drudge Report, my good friend Rush Limbaugh, THATSGOLD, they say that my exploits in the market are legendary. Because it's true. I'm the world's foremost authority on footballs. I make the deals. Not like this guy here: zero knowledge on footballs. I'd call him a Mexican bum, but that wouldn't be politically correct, so I'll say he's an underachiever. Now don't take offense, they love me in Mexico. They come up to me with their little pinatas and burritos and they say, 'Donald, tell us all about this guy Balme.' And I tell them, well, it's not for me to say, but if Balme or Buckley or Davoren or Pert or Eddie or any of those bums somehow got to be a participant on my award-winning, top-rated television show "The Apprentice," I'd have to say, "Loser, you're fired!'"

Pendles just held a Q and A on his facebook. The most interesting parts were he is going to Wagga, he plans to be a Collingwood player for life and after footy plans to coach.

So he will coach Collingwood one day you would think.

Be our Next Coach after Bucks;)

Has Goldy got the same injury as last year Knee Tendentious or is it something else?
