You wouldn't be able to give even a solitary example to back up the utter shit you've just spouted.

On the other hand I fondly remember you being in the top few excuse makers for what will always be known as disastrous episode in our history while Buckley was the coach.

You're right. I mean, why be supportive of Collingwood players and staff on a Collingwood Board full of Collingwood supporters when you can be the cliche edgy internet hater that everyone loves to hear piping up from the back. Must be fun to spew vitriol on an internet forum then clap along with everyone else in real life.

Funny to think our forward line in 2025 could include 3 players that didn't play in GF23. Membrey, Schultz and McStay. That's half of the forward line :oops:

McStay was a vital part of the fibals campaign though, really great vs Melbourne and Giants.

He was so solid in Brisbane, his rash of injuries is so uncharacteristic and I hope he gets a great year.

Shulz had a pretty good year defensively, he slots intol the role Adams shared with McReery and Mitchell. More goals would be nice but frankly he's doing his job, I do not understand the mindless hate.

Reminds me if the hate for WHE, who is among our most reliable and durable. I guess we need a whipping boy.

I don't know where Membrey sits, it seems obvious he's a forward but we have Mihocek and McStay, and Elliott plays tall. Is he depth? Is he first 18? I hope he and Shulz boot 60 each.
 
Critical that he tidies up his skills to be at least league average. His skills are bottom 25% of the league last year in my view, and it cost us. I know his pressure / tackling is top 25% in the league, which is good, but if he can just get to average level on skills / execution, then we have a useful contributor.

If he can be more like the version we saw against Brisbane at the G, he is going to be a problem for 17 other teams
 
He looked happier in the latest training clip than at any time I have seen him at Collingwood so far. He was actually smiling and jumping around with enthusiasm! He looked like someone who feels he now belongs and can just get on with playing his role.

A lot of the hate is over the top and unfounded but to play devil's advocate paying 2 first round picks for a defensive forward isn't ideal so I wouldn't really call it mindless. Adams was arguably playing the role better. I hope for some big things this year tho I'm confident he'll turn it around just like Mayne did. As for WHE I don't think he's been the whipping boy since the Buckley days? And he did have a couple of bad seasons/games and back then he was usually one of the first to be omitted despite some fans complaining he got picked too often. WHE is like cult figure tho and he always stands up late in games when we need him. I don't Think there are many who have impacted games late to help us get over the line than he has.

I guess it depends what you’re after from a small forward.

Hopefully Houston doesn’t cop some of the crap this bloke got in 2024.

Probably will. I feel like any new recruit from another club gets extra attention, especially when you give away a first round pick.

it’s seriously unfair on the player, but that’s just how it goes. I’m hopeful of Schultz having a much better year in 2025 now that he’s got his first season under his belt.

I would also add the fact that Adams had some inside mid time and wasn't solely a forward hence the 0.6 goals average and his midfield like numbers in the other stats. Hopefully Shultz can pick up his numbers this year and have a very good year. His stats for this year don't cover 2 1st rounders and the only consolation is he's a defensive forward which I think doesn't do him justice he's much better than that.
