If we don't wanna put our heads over the ball we ain't gonna win games of football. Get in all the tough nuts and put some grunt back into Collingwood. Why the hell would brisbane wanna show us repect us when we play like that? What a disgrace! Pull your head in Mick this is shocking :mad:

What i dont understand is why we are playing all these soft guys for? Whats the point of even showing up if we aint gonna make a contest?

I go to the vfl each week and Jason Cloke is one the toughest guys i've ever seen and his work rate is awesome. He gives 100% even when he plays forward line which is a joke. How come Iacconbucci isnt in the team for gods sake! He continully puts his head over the ball and gets clearances. When he got a game for the pies i thought he was awesome and the experience will just make him better.

Our season was over weeks ago so why the hell hasnt mick brang in the young guys to give them experience. Just like Rowe, he played the last few games of last year and all though he isnt staring yet he has looked so much better in patches.

I don't know about everyone else but i wouldnt mind a change in the coachs box. Lets give ourselves something to look forward to please..

To have any chance against the lions in Brisbane we had to be FULL strength. We are not and got pumped, you're carring on like you didn't expect it to happen.

Before you go overboard, let me remind you that we are missing half of our side. I am not using this as an excuse at all, but you have to take into account that we have had another injury-hit season up to date, and it doesn't look like it's getting any better with Cameron & Travis Cloke going down injured in that 3rd quarter. Also, take into account that Brisbane have thrashed two "top 4 sides" (Geelong & Melbourne) over the last 2 weeks. It was shocking, but we can't do much with our better players on the sidelines.

Tonights result is a true indication of where we are at. Change the coach......pleeeease! You can't make chicken salad out of chicken feathers.

Injuries have nothing to do with how hard you go at the ball, or how keen you are to put your body on the line, or how quickly you take your eye off the pill.

How can you judge tonight on where we are at as a football side when our better players are on the sidelines each week?

Soft mentally? Yes - an indication of a young side.
Soft physically - Yes we but we have physically undeveloped bodies.

We were soft on the night but not much can be read into tonights loss. This may sound stupid but Brisbane play better 4 goals up than they do 4 points up, once they sense weakness they are ruthless and we gave up just straight away. There weren't many soft incidents since we allowed Brisbane to run too loose.

Too say we are generally soft is ignoring our victories this year, most of which were due to great inclose pressure.

Next week. Collingwood Vs Essendon. Let's pump it up and give it some publicity. We can call it "The Priority Pick Cup"
It should be an enthralling match watching two teams trying to tank the game. Oops sorry. "We'll play the Young'ens to give them some experience" game

There isnt anythig wrong with Mick! Sure he might not be in the top 3 best coaches, but there isnt a better coach available! He cant do anymore about getting his players to put there f-ing heads over the ball! I thought what he did during during the week saying that the ydont respect us blah blah was good and i thought it would motivate the players but obviously not! There needs to be a massie cull of personel coem seasons end!
to leave at minimum:
tarrant- not interested!
williams-obvious
lokan- see williams
woewodin- soft and slow and therefore ********

if we are going to keep skilless slow players they may aswell have a go and have balls (eg C1)

Oh yeah Rocca just destroys anyone he comes across and scares the living ******** out of all in his path. Those 'losers' are doing their fair share of winning at the moment. Call them tools by all means, but losers? I don't think so.
