Most hyped up do nothing club of all time. One premiership in 16 seasons, this from what scuttlebutt at the ‘Bob Lexus Rose’ centre would have you believe is the biggest and best club in the land.

Let’s have a look at what has been achieved under the McGuire/Malthouse reign of terror.

Firstly the appointment of Malthouse, described by McGuire as the ‘Best coach in the land’, hmmm Matthews and Sheedy must have been absent that day, and for that matter Pagan. What has Malthouse achieved?? Two grand final loses, and before you ferals start going on about him taking you to two GF’s, remembers second place is the first LOSER! And who remembers who came second anyway, anyone know who Cathy Freeman beat at the 2000 Games??

Then the recruits of the century, 18 Clokes and 15 Shaws. They say absolute power corrupts absolutely, and nothing could be more true of this club. Control is in the hands of too few, and this club is disintegrating because of it. All the flash gyms and Bob Lexus Rose Centres in the world couldn’t cover that up.

Then there was woewoedin, geez that one just made me laugh and laugh.

We all know McGuire got in to the position much the same way as George W got in over in the States and the similarities don’t end there. Neil Balme is an excellent Dic Cheney, and the recruiting department down there is in much the same quagmire as Bush is in Iraq. As for the financials, anyone know what the biggest white elephant of all time is worth? That is the Bob Lexus Rose Centre??

It’s time for Collingwood people to have a good look at themselves, stop calling a spade a shovel and vote with their feet. Get rid of the current axis of evil that is McGuire, Malthouse and Balme and get back some respect.

You have the IQ of a ******ed orangatan. Good luck with that.

Great analysis. The majority of their premierships came in a time when there wasnt such a focus on money and sponsors.

Eddie and co are great for the bank balance but not the trophy cabinet.

Your maths ability seems to be way below average...My calculations indicate your post should read one premiership in 47 seasons. I don't want to pick on the Piemen, Piewomen, & Pielets of the world, but those numbers don't translate into greatest by a long shot!

We all know McGuire got in to the position much the same way as George W got in over in the States...

50,000,000 votes in 2000? 62,000,000 votes in 2004? Eddie is more popular than I suspected!

 

[Pie 4 Life]

THe first losers are 9th-16th. But of course it's not surprising that a Brisbane supporter would start such a thread. Go away troll.

 

[Terry Tan]

They're a funny club the Pies. Obviously got lots of support and money, but are really struggling on-field. Malthouse has been there 6 years, with only 2 years being good.

2006 is make or break for Malthouse.

 

[Count Zero]

Just saying that everything a club does is wrong, is not an analysis.

I find it quite amusing that somebody who supports a merger of two failed clubs - with subsequent undue assistance from the league to ensure its success - has the gumption to suggest any other club is a 'do nothing club'.

Oh well, now that Brisbane is no longer the flavour of the month with the AFL, I guess we'll just have to see how well you and yours deal with returning to the heady heights of the Brisbane Bears days.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Yes because apart from the extra promotional potential Collingwood has to retain players... they receive absolutely no benefits or favours from the AFL whatsoever.

How many games do the Pies play outside of Melbourne in 2006 again?

Great analysis? Where?

Stay in London please. This country doesn't need you over here dragging the collective IQ down!!!

4, the same as most other Melbourne clubs would if they didn't sell their games.

Oh, and funnily enough, they also have 11 home games, the same as every other club.

Speaking of IQ, I read recently that Arizona has one of the lowest IQ averages of all the US states.

It went up again after the Pies came back home though.

Oh and BTW, I come back home in June.

It is quite an anomaly that Collingwood only play 4 games outside Victoria, yet Carlton consistently play 5. Carlton do not sell their games, so either the AFL is doing Collingwood a favour, or screwing Carlton.

 

[RedLegs#5]

Boring. They lack 'pizzazz' and crumble under pressure. Had two grand finals to prove themselves (one which they should have won and one which they were supposed to win). They never delivered.

Most of their fans are too uneducated to have a proper discussion with.

2/10

The mere fact that you raise the question emphasizes & further demonstrates your lack of intelligence...

What is your IQ by the way? You can use your fingers on your hands if you like...

PS. This is my first post.

LOL

Sounds like someone has penis envy

You mean when players played for the love of the game instead of looking good for the camera and the nightclub? when club loyalty wasn't a sound byte? when there were no managers? when you would go to war with your team mates and the opposition and die for them? When football wasn't just a financial balance sheet???
Sounds like a great club to me

 

[The_New_Recruit]

You're a collingwood supporter. Don't use big words...you look out of place.

Firstly, your opinion is meaningless to me, so stick it deep up your a.s.s...

Secondly, you should learn to use spaces in between your punctuation and your words prior to dictating what people can & can't do. Moreover, as a general rule, capital letters are used after full stops (the little black dot).

I am sure the Collingwood bigfooty supporters will embrace my arrival & will concur that you have made yourself look like an idiot.

It is you that is out of place you unfortunate little boy/girl...

Just remember that you started this & incase I failed to mention, it is my predilection to use extensive vocabulary. If you don't like it, screw yourself...

I apologise If I have offended others with my profanities. It is not normally how i would react, but this guy is a complete loser & warranted what he/she got. To generalize on a persons intelligence based on the club they support is pure ignorance...

Bwahahahaha

A. For someone who is 'meaningless', you sure gave me a lengthy response.
B. Your 'knowledge’ of the English language compared to mine is futile. Don't try and argue against your master.
C. Welcome to BF. As with many of your fellow Collingwood friends, I'm going to give you a task. This task will help you understand where you belong, as well as how to earn an actual living.

Eh hem...

Clean my shoes! Get down and scrub.

P.S.
1. in (space) case
2. if (small I)

At least they've won one in the last 4 decades

So I guess that would have to be 1/10 for Melbourne

LOL...

"Master" - You are delusional. I can foresee that you live a very shelterd life...

I have never proclaimed to be an intellectual giant, therefore I anticipate that errors will be made. You on the other hand (when your not using it to toss off) make such a statement despite your obvious imperfections.

You are a waste of space & clearly subordinate to most, in real life & bigfooty...

BTW, you are well aware of what you can do with your shoes...

 

[khanate]

as a general rule, capital letters are used after full stops (the little black dot).

...not after ellipses, though, for they show an unfinished thought, or even omitted words/clauses/sentences/whatever. the ellipsis [...] is often misused, as people tend to 'type as they think'.

good day.
