Can we not have the NMFC so we don't have posts like this. Hmmmm... Maybe my wish will come true. More than likely in the next few years LOL!
If that is what you think, come and post that on our board.

no you clown, you're presuming that actual performance today is the best indicator of future performance. which in players that young, of different roles, types, and physical proportions is just garbage.
We'll see won't we. I can see why you wouldn't understand if you don't watch closely in our matches. He clears the ball from a pack, to a free player, where anyone else in the team would've been caught and another stoppage created. It seems unimpressive because he makes it look so easy, but I and many others appreciate it, because it's something we have lacked for a long time.
FWIW, 26 touches, a goal and 5 tackles + 24 touches, a goal and 5 tackles - in our two winning finals. He is vital.

They have a stalinist approach on the nmfc board. I was red carded. Seems North supporters don't want to fathom the harsh reality that they may become extinct. Very prescious on the NMFC board. Yeah I was red carded for suggesting that they go to the Gold Coast. LOL.

speaking of not being at the races...
you'll have to first understand the point before you can even think of rebuking.
and its obviously straight over your tiny head.

Our kids will sh*t all over yours and you've had yours longer. Even Arocca and Trainor saw the light. Money doesn't buy success on the field.

love it. "mundane stereotype" is a redundant platitude, followed by calling others stupid.

Funny you say that because as soon as we said we didn't want to go there, Eddie jumps up and says, "Collingwood will play on the gold coast." Funny that... As I said, making a few more dollars won't buy success on the field

Whats with people saying Murphy?
Gee i wished the Pies picked him, i'd love a soft and slow midfielder who can't kick over 40 metres at the club.

I was dissapointed with Hellfire as a fellow Collingwood supporter that he would even bother with a fool that doesn't rate Thomas. Didn't even read is response. Whatever Thomas' flaws are are far outweighed by his attributes. Every player in the comp has flaws. Even Buckley had them.

Doesn't that mean I can't rate Hawkins and Leuenberger as two of the best young players in the AFL?
Your criteria would have ruled out Pendlebury from being listed as a rising star this time last year.
I take it you haven't seen him play?
Gibbs finished seventh in the rising star award as a bottom age player in his first year.
Ahead of a second year player in Ryder no less.
I think Bryce has done enough to be labelled a rising star after playing 22 games as a 17 year old and putting in great cameos in the pre-season.
Pffffft!
You have O'Bree.

I don't care about Collingwood;s financial position. Why would I? I know and you know and everyone else knows we are rich. That we are powerful. I couldn't care less these days... I take it for granted. I know our financial positions and the fact that we have the best facilities does help our players get the most out of themselves. NMFC for instance... maybe there's not a day that goes by that you don't think about their financial position. LOL.

Buckleys biggest flaw is that he actually went to Collingwood
Thomas' biggest flaw is he actually thinks he is a champion
Collingwoods midfield is slow... Face Facts
Don't be disappointed. I'm just sick of this place being non-stop trolling on everyone's part. I'm trying to be reasonable, without bias. Thomas IS inconsistant, and he IS a show-pony. If someone chooses not to rate him, that doesn't really worry me, but I definately don't agree with it. I'm very confident he'll be a champion for the club, and for the league, but it won't happen overnight. Players like him take time to develop consistancy, and the right decision making. The best example I can think of is Ablett Jr. For years people said he wasn't living up to his potential (despite still being a very good player), and then BANG! In 2007 he's arguably the best player in the league (for the year).

In other words, one good year doesn't make you. Back it up. Do you not understand what is being said here?
Correct. I wouldn't have ranked Pendlebury anywhere near the top this time last year. Leuenberger has shown a lot for his limited opportunity, Hawkins will need more time.

The most decent comment from a collingwood supporter all night (the bit about Thomas I mean)
