If Buckley gets the boot, then Sando and Harvey would be gone regardless, as any new coach would bring in his own support team.
We were pretty bad 2014-2017. It was a massive surprise when our list got us to the 2018 GF. How could we possibly lhalve needed to backend contracts for 2018?That strategy took us to within a kick of a Premiership, a PF and an SF.
What should the board have done instead?
Rubbish it was not the foot that ruined his career.
It was his Knee that went on him.
Did not have a Foot Issue after being Drafted
What a crock. Just how is a foot injury symptomatic of potential ACL’s. Love to see the research confirming that correlation.
Since Scharenberg was drated I fully hoped Derek Hine's selection of him would be a correct one.
However, what I said was that "Scharenberg was a known injury risk draftee with a foot injury which came about through overuse. A Derek Hine fail-to-perform-due-diligence, first-rounder-late-bloomer and inbetweener special."
I never said that his foot caused his ACL injuries. I said that it was known to Hine that Scharenberg had a history of injuries. A fact known to everyone. When Scharenberg was picked by Hine Collingwood marketed him as "...the best schoolboy talent...since Wayne Carey..."
Injuries and suspensions seem to be brought up as an excuse when it comes to Hine's drafting, but never a lack of due diligence / increased probability of tendency of injury. Derek Hine's selections have generally been substandard for some time and he appears to be beyond reproach. Ironic considering that the whole point of a recruiter is to be able correctly identify and pick a player from a pool of potential draftees.
We're gonna finish bottom 2 and our 1st and 2nd round picks were gifted to other clubs.
Great work Ned
If Geelong did due dilligence on Selwood a injury risk. they never would have picked him. Had we not dont due dilligence on Steve Johnson he would have been a pie. We traded up to try and get Bont and missed by 1 pick. We also missed Bolton by 1 pick. A lot of luck goes into drafting/recruitment. Hine does get a lot right I think the problem has been trading too much for players and not investing more in the draft.Since Scharenberg was drated I fully hoped Derek Hine's selection of him would be a correct one.

I'm certainly no fan of Ned but North would of bid on daicos at pick 1 anyway so we would of lost pick 2 either way? So I guess at least we got something out of itPick 2 for Poulter and Mcmahon
Oh Ned, you've done it again !

Although if we were still holding pick 2 now, we could trade it for a top player or for 2 x 1st round picks 2022, or attempt to trade it for North’s pick 1 this year (secure Horne & Daicos).I'm certainly no fan of Ned but North would of bid on daicos at pick 1 anyway so we would of lost pick 2 either way?

And half of McCreery and mid 20's points for Daicos.
We were paying a high price no matter whatIronically GWS might use "our" pick 2 to bid on Daicos forcing us to pay a high price. Just to rub salt into our wounds of incompetence. Did we really think that pick would be much later after 2 dismal finals exits in 2 years and that trade week?
