When this gag first came out, Collingwood were on the bottom and everyone was full of how crap their drafting, list and coaching were.
Then they beat WCE, Geelong and Port playing pretty well. Their coach was a genius and their recent drafts - especially T Cloke, Swan, Maxwell, Rowe, Rusling, Egan and including R Shaw on this year's form - much better than anyone thought and the club was really going places.
Now a few more ordinary weeks, and more good players out with injury and suspension, and this gets another run.
If anyone could be bothered, a letter like this could be put together to embaras every single club. But why bother, when you can get some lemmings laughing at this one every few weeks?
btw name one club who would have kept Schauble if they could have got a Mars Bar in trade for him...
I don't love the Pies, but I am bored with lazy posters.

True enough but it's still got further than yours. In the same timeframe (as used by one of your own until the comparison went south) you are a grand final down and unless you play in the GF this year you will be two down. We'll see about the coming years I guess but if you want to make comparisons use ones where you are ahead to prove your point rather than ones where you lag behind. St Kilda has had better and more numerous early picks for a lower return.Saintsfan said:

The Saints used their 3 years to draft quality kids 5 years from their peak. Collingwood used it to trade for senior players close to or at their peak.
Quite happy with my comparisons. Unless we finish bottom 4 over the next 2 seasons.

Well the next 2 depend on what Collingwood do also I would have thought but on completed seasons your comparison shows you fall short. On another of your comparison, what's the winning ratio for the skipper this year v the games he's missed? A far starker contrast than your Buckley stat.Falchoon said:
BTW the Saints traded pick 4 or something for Hamil so let’s not make inaccurate statements to prove irrelevant points.
if you dont know the situation why post????romanwfw said:
michael was troubled influence, wanted more money than he deserved, was a developing player
collingwood needed experienced hard bodies, molloy lead the way & made players like lonie, lockyer etc. the soft players walk taller & use there skills, helped get us into the two grand finals
u have no idea so dont bother commenting
danny jacobs for pick six is worse than all our deals except the pavlich fiasco
Our pick we got for Ricky ohhhh played a significant campaign in the 2000 season. The best player you have got off us was Ron Andrews, the only bloke in a collingwood jumper who could walk off with his head held high Prelim day `84MarkT said:

So instead of Michael going to Brisbane for free in the PSD we traded for Molloy, someone that also wanted to come back to Melbourne.
Plus we weren't going to pay Michael the money he wanted.
And aren't his injuries sorta out of our control?

You must have less than one eye to come up with such dribble. Where does this idea come from that you can never question the club you support. That' bollocks if we never questioned our politicians then we would end up with some war mongering right wing facist as prime minister.
oh hang on a minute...
same thing was posted on collingwood boards in rd7LasCar said:
hence why the hell post it again now
no qualms with supporters having a go at their own team
drafting more of an issue at collingwood than trading, majority of pies supporters will inform you of that
