I think the way it ended is about the best we could have hoped for in the circumstances.Eerily peaceful way to finish his time at Collingwood - you get the sense everyone was quite content with the decision that was made. I'm talking players, coaches, admin staff etc.
I've never known a Collingwood without Nathan Buckley. It'll be strange, but it's an exciting new chapter in our Club's history.
Thank-you for everything, Nathan.
No We have made a big difference in the way we have gone about it, ill trust my judgement on that one, even with Nicky R in your corner.
Thanks for the input though.
Just collected 51 gorillas on big Max Lynch to accumulate 7+ possessions and I still haven't broken even on the gorillas I offloaded on big Mason Cox to snag the first sausage roll at 51 over the yrs and that re.
Unbelievable.

Darcy Cameron is turning into a very handy player.
Grundy can play as Ruck rover.I’d play him for the rest of the year and when Grundy gets back Cameron can play as a permanent forward.
Yep I've been in the camp calling for a change just because we do need new ideas and new philosophies.
I wanted a new coach but I feel so sad tonight. It feels like grief.

I think people are getting worked up over "he lost the players" idea and that this game and the scenes that followed proved he didn't. Losing the players doesn't necessarily mean that they wanted him gone, or didn't like him as a person or coach, it's just that he was no longer able to motivate them to give maximum effort. To me, this game shows that. Across the board the effort and intensity lifted to a level that we haven't seen since the Elimination Final last year. For whatever reason, probably just time, Buckley couldn't extract that (or anything close to it) often enough.
Most of you have probably changed jobs or had a new manager at some point. Inevitably your effort lifts as you need to prove yourself all over again. Footy players are no different.
As for the man himself, Bucks is a bloody legend. So glad we could send him off with a win. Gave his everything to the club and showed true class the way he bowed out (as did the club in the way they handled it).
Well that's what you get for taking that vindictive old coot just to spite Collingwood.Don't worry.

Best game I’ve seen from WHE and JT for some time. Clearly that wing position suits WHE, hopefully Harvey keeps him there…

Same here
I'm happy and proud that Bucks got a good send off; the players getting the win, the esteem shown his way and the class displayed by Buckley. Together with a tinge of sadness that his time in black and white ends (at least for quite a while). Personally there's also a little bit of closure missing as we weren't able to farewell Bucks in person with the game being in Sydney. Hopefully the club can find an appropriate time, but it's going to be hard as we need to keep moving forward now.I feel the same guys
