    Strategy What Is Our Gameplan?

    This isn't a pisstake thread and I genuinely want to know from others who have an eye for strategy/Gameplan - can anyone tell me what our game plan is? What our strategy for scoring is? What are we doing so wrong (got people to call for Bucks' head)? And if anything, what are we doing right...

    Toovey needs to be dropped.

    You've been a great player 2V. But you are playing some disgusting football at the moment. Time for a spell. That's about 12 goals conceded in 3 weeks.

    News Scharenberg Update

    Hi all - I have been told that Matt Scharenberg was running last week and will begin training tomorrow and is ahead of schedule according to his surgeon. Will be back playing VFL in 6 - 7 weeks. Good news finally on the injury front. Other injury news: Karnezis and Seedsman back next week...

    Kelly not nominated as F/S

    Callum Twomey ✔ @AFL_CalTwomey Pies won't nominate Jake Kelly as a father-son pick at the #AFLDraft but could consider him as a rookie: http://afl.to/18MnbCL Some actual...real news - if anyone cares for it. This makes sense. If we are keeping our spots open for an assault on 2014...

    News Mooney signs 2 year deal

    As per his twitter account. Good luck to the kid, Buckley obviously sees some very good qualities in him so hopefully he does the jumper proud!

    Competitions 1 choice -who will be in black and white next year?

    1 choice. Choose wisely. Prize is....a fresh air sandwich. Have a crack, who knows what might happen in off season-we did get lynch,young and Russell last year, bit of a lottery. Kristian jaksch.

    Toast Shane Crawford

    I think this board should acknowledge Crawford, one of the Great football personalities of our time, for the huge effort he has put in to do what he has done. Well done, if any Collingwood players could make half the impact as Crawford we would be very lucky. Legend!!

    Opinion Grundy will play soon.

    Calling it now, if Grundy plays 2-3 good vfl games in the next few weeks, he will be in the team. Te writing is on the wall- Buckley said he wants a 3 tall forward line meaning 2 key forwards and a second ruck. The way I see it is that the 2nd key forward is between Paine and lynch, and it could...

    Am I the only one who believes in Marley Williams?

    Every time he comes up in conversations about him being brought into the team, His perceived downfalls are immediately pointed out and I really think it is just a huge over reaction. Last year he came in and was only out of favour when he got injured. I genuinely think we misse him for the rest...

    David Buttifant to blame for injuries?

    Before I start I just want to fully acknowledge the fact that this guy has done some amazing things with our playing list, especially under mick in 2010. But, this is the second year in a row that we have been behind pretty much the whole competition in terms of injury. Is he to blame? And if...

    Get around him!!! - Josh Thomas a possibility to play NAB Round 2

    Melbourne want exemption from mini draft rules

    I think they should just receive a flat out no from the AFL. Firstly - it would be another damaging blow to the flimsy reputation of the AFL admin. Secondly - Adelaide and GC have already been subject to this rule. Thirdly - it would just piss off every other club. Flat out no, or...

    Who from your club do you think will be at another club next season?

    With free agency, I think everyone is going to have to get used to 1-3 players, that they loved, shipping off to another club. Free agency seems to have increased trading and delistings in order to receive or compensate for a lost free agent, too. Just at Collingwood we saw the (mutual or...

    A judgement on the merit of Collingwood's draft picks

    I got this idea from the Sydney board where they have compiled their premiership 22 and the picks they were taken in the draft/what they traded to get them. It really does reiterate the fact that with a good game plan, very good development techniques and a team environment and team style of...

    Oppo Camp Let's talk about Adelaide

    There is so much going on right now that news is staggered and hasn't seemed to have painted the full picture in one article. Can someone please explain just what has happened from start to finish? And what possible sanctions they may be looking at. Both Tippett and the club.

    Toast We got what we wanted

    Mid year, threads were filled with discussions on who we were going to lose this year due to the salary cap squeeze and the new and untried free agency. At times we had resigned to losing a superstar in Cloke, Reid or Pendlebury. At other times we became so furious with Cloke that we wanted him...

    Opinion What we did right against Hawthorn, why Sidebottom needs to go forward & why we are in better shape

    What we did right: - We successfully nullified their usual advantage in the backline. Dawes did a good job of sucking Gibson away from Cloke. We also successfully tagged Birchall to keep him rather subdued. So too Suckling. - Tarrant had a good game against Franklin. He distracted him for the...

    Is Gibson in trouble for tripping?

    Late in the last qtr he tripped Krakouer, but haven't seen a replay so not sure about what I saw... Is he in trouble? Haven't heard much about it, but from the game it did look like a poor act.

    All Australian Contenders

    Beams Pendlebury Swan Seems about right... Sidebottom stiff but he really has fallen away the last few rounds. Would only expect Swan and Beams to make it, Pendlebury hasn't been right since his injury. Just out of interest...How the * can the chose Enright for the squad again??? Just...

    What has happened to Pendlebury?

    This is the first time I can remember him having 2-3 bad games in a row. He has lost his confidence, he looks slow and doesn't have his usual slow-time-down happening for him. All his kicks are snaps around the body under pressure when uually he would get out of the situation with ease. Is...

    Opinion Now is the time for our coaches to step up and show some courage

    Let me preface this post by saying I have faith in Buckley and the whole CFC. However, it is time for them to show some courage in terms of team selection and team structure. Agree/disagree - this is just my opinion. Selection table: I see our team as being very vulnerable as a finals...

    Macaffer and Krakouer to Resume Full Contact Training in 3 Weeks

    http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/newsfeatures/news/newsarticle/tabid/5586/newsid/139891/default.aspx I also saw my surgeon Julian Feller. Myself and Andrew Krakouer went and saw him to touch base. We do that every four to five weeks. He gave us a big tick and said he’s really happy with how we’re...
