From Wren to MCGuire

[maroon and blue]

So much power, so much influence, yet so little success. Perhaps Zeke knows the answer, but hey he's too busy on Fitzroy/Brisbane website. Perhaps he should spend more time on Smith St.

Lovely to see how your beloved fitzroy stood up! couldnt even scrape enough support together to survive.
Collingwood was in the sh1t about a decade ago we are now the most succesful sporting organisation in australia! We could have folded we could have merged, we could have excepted handouts from the AFL but we chose to stick together and we survived. will be interesting where the brisbane lions will be in 10 years time, singapore maybe?! i hear there is a massive market over there you jack ass!

Who are Fitzroy? Oh you mean that "club" that folded? Wait it was a merger...yeah right and University "merged" with Melbourne.
Hit the bricks junior.

this could have been an interesting thread but like usual it turns into a slanging match.

I have always thought about the similarities between the two.

Wren would have seen about 12 Collingwood flags before he died , so he experienced a fair bit of "glory" , before he went the way of Fitzroy.
McGuire hasn't overseen any Pies flags yet but there is always time to turn it around. I suppose you could say where there is life , there is hope.

You’ve got it wrong. The duds that didn’t go from Britannia to Collingwood went to second choice Fitzroy and the rest is history – literally.
