I am not sure but I think the name Colliwobbles developed after Collingwood made the finals in many years but failed to win big finals games eg 66,70 etc. After the 1990 grand final was there a ceremony to bury the Colliwobbles or something like that involving Lou Richards?
 
The Colliwobbles are dead and buried... they no longer lose the big one... they no longer get to the big one... infact they no longer get to the finals... and haven't for many years...

Abuser/9th tiger/Scooter etc. ,you should probably think about retiring the Colliwobbles alias because as Rooboy stated they no longer exist. Colliwobbles is not a term that relates to Collingwood anymore because they haven't had a chance to fail in the finals for a while. ;)
 
Come on Roo Boy.

Can we have some originality?

Of course the pies have been awful over the past seven years. We all know it.

Type something that won't be forgotten in the nest blink.

Tell me where your team's home ground is? What city do they want to try and infiltrate? (I take it Sydney has been aborted?)

What about finances? Seriously my little friend, where is your Club heading? Are you worried? I promise i won't archive your response-just need to know if you have the answers-as you believe you do.

Let me know huh.

Obviously not when I read you remarks below... no originality there...

As I see it we will play 2-3 games in Canberra for hugh profits... and one in Sydney... the rest will be split between the G and Colonial...

Canberra is the obvious answer to this question... Sydney was never going to work with the anti-football stand the Swans took...

From all reports the Kangaroos have turned around a $1000,000+ loss this year... bloody fantastic effort... and we still have not had to rattle tins in the street like some other teams have in their past...

and in the same breath...

Just explain for me rooboy, Canberra the obvious answer. Hmmm, yet you are still backpacking across the country next year?

And only playing 2 (sorry 2-3) games in Canberra? The rest around the traps...why? If you are targeting Canberra (with huge profits as you say), then why only 2-3 games. Sounds strange.




"From all reports the Kangaroos have turned around a $1000,000+ loss this year... bloody fantastic effort... and we still have not had to rattle tins in the street like some other teams have in their past..."


Whose reports are they? The same mob who audited HIH?...or OneTel?

And if Sydney were 'anti football' surely you could have relied on the strength of your own football unit to overcome the negativity huh?

Maybe not.

Oh and Carlton Joffa, in today's AFL it is hardly appropriate to stay at a ground like Vic Park, or Windy Hill, or Punt Rd etc.

Nice try though.

For the playing of games, yes these stadia are inappropriate but not in terms of using them as a training base.

Windy Hill is possibly as good as it gets in terms of facilities and Punt Rd is currently half way towards getting to the same point with a further $4 million redevelopment set to go ahead next year.

I think that the past Collingwood administrations let Victoria Park degenerate so badly it was not feasible to bring it back up to standard. This must be distressing for Collingwood folk, losing their spiritual home.

Now they seem more like a nomadic club, in the manner that St. Kilda are and Fitzroy was.

Well that was obviously wasted on a fool like you... if you can't handle the answers... don't ask the questions...
