Who are we talking about?They already have a 42 year drought under their belts. Longer than any of ours.
My Maths is bad, carry on.Who are we talking about?
32 mate, we win that one unfortunatelyThey already have a 42 year drought under their belts. Longer than any of ours.
I hope they do as well as all the other Victorian sides
I am 100% Vic teams all the way
Go the Vics, absolute legends all of them
cheers everyone
Rectal thermometer, more like.Chris Mayne is the barometer for the team.
Collingwood are the most overrated sporting club in Australia.
Couldn’t win a chook raffle even if they had all the tickets.
I don't think we have a chance to even make finals but are you serious? Our Midfield is easily in the top 5. Pendles, Treloar, Adams alone carry our team. It is our backline and forward line which is allowing us to lose easy games. Put your hate aside for a moment and be realistic. Midfield is not the problem for Collingwood, it's the only thing keeping us from being 18th.The recruiting of Chris Mayne and Daniel Wells on long contracts suggest they thought they were in a premiership window.
Don’t see the midfield or backline talent or A graders that the Dogs or Tigers had.
So no, can’t see it.
Firstly there's no hate.I don't think we have a chance to even make finals but are you serious? Our Midfield is easily in the top 5. Pendles, Treloar, Adams alone carry our team.

While I don think our midfield is as good as a number of others it is clearly the strength of the side. The "C and D graders" who come in after those 3 would be Sidebottom, Wells, De Goeythose 3 seem stong on paper BUT lets get serious time is catching up with pendles, Treloar is good but is not a match winner, Adams turns it over like no other. would struggle to be in the top 50 mids in the country. who rotates in when those B graders arent there? C and D graders who play as individuals.
Disagree. Mayne was based on Gubby Allens return for a short term and he just loved Mayne as a player and wanted him. Wells was a great pick up every day of the week though the 3 years too generous. He fills a need we have as we deliver the ball terribly by foot especially into the forward line. You could see how he improv,ed us when he played in 2017.The recruiting of Chris Mayne and Daniel Wells on long contracts suggest they thought they were in a premiership window.

nah im good thanks. cheers.While I don think our midfield is as good as a number of others it is clearly the strength of the side. The "C and D graders" who come in after those 3 would be Sidebottom, Wells, De Goey
I would say 2 A graders in Pendles and Treloar. Wells is A grade when fit. Sidey and Adams clearly rate as B grade. De Goey will be B grade at least. Think you C and D grade relates to Hoskin-Elliott, Aish, Thomas, Maynard, Greenwood, Phillips, Brown and a few other youngsters we hope will develop. You probably should revise your ratings
Until Eddie swallows his pride and admits to getting the Buckley appointment wrong, Collingwood are simply going to be a middle to lower end side. And that doesn't help them going forward with top end talent through the draft. With Sidebottom, Pendlebury, Wells, Varcoe and Reid at the wrong end of their careers, I see trouble ahead for the Pies. Have looked second rate most of this game against another side tipped to be around the same position of the ladder this year.I think we can definitively say No after 3/4 of footy.
At the end of last season their problems appeared to me as a lay person;Getting a bit tired of Collingwood bending over and copping it from Hawthorn yet again. They don't deserve any better though, just rubbish.
