Collingwood falls away dramatically after their top 5 players

Remove this Banner Ad

Looking at the Collingwood list of 2014, I am struggling to come up with 6 elite players, let alone 10!

The Top 5 would be:

Pendlebury, Beams, Cloke, Elliott, Sidebottom.

After that it becomes very hard...

Swan has been a fantastic player, but surely his best is behind him?

Lumumba really only had 1 good year. He is mediocre at best now.

Blokes like Macaffer, Toovey, Fasolo, Dwyer, Goldsack, Blair are honest, but nothing special. More C to C+ stock.

The big man situation is not all that healthy. Apart from Cloke, what do they have? Witts, Grundy, Keeffe, Reid (Too injury prone & has only had 1 really good year) are not the type of KPPs to build your team around. They tried to strengthen this area by picking up plodders like Lynch & White. It just didn't work for them.

Sure the Pies have a few talented youngsters in Langdon, Seedsman, Adams, Broomhead, Sinclair, Kennedy, Thomas, Frost, Scharenberg, Freeman. But yet again, most clubs have talented youngsters that are coming through.

IMO, the lack of depth & class in the Collingwood list, was the biggest reason that they missed the finals in 2014.

And it ain't gonna be any better round one 2015.

A number of long term injuries.

Short long term pain for..............

Nothing.
 
Henderson, Judd and Menzel. I'm sure every defense in the league will be quivering with fear at the thought of that forward line ...
Possibly.
2014 forward line stats.

Travis Cloke - 39 goals.

Lachie Henderson - 28 goals.
Chris Judd - 7 goals.
Troy Menzel - 26 goals.

So far Carlton's forward line for next year >>> Collingwoods' and probably cost much less too…

Nope, only Trav is counted as the forward line at Collingwood.
He told me himself and then laughed aloud at how Eddie begged him for the privilege.

Now we know this is bullshit, Eddie only begs Bucks.
 
Cloke wouldnt even be a top 5 at Melbourne
Top 5 all time you mean? You couldn't possibly be talking about that shit stain of a football side you current employ
