Hey Maggie supporters

[eastaugh36]

I cant wait to see sav tear the collingwood pretenders apart and kick 8 or 9 against their poor excuse for a full back !

"Gee haven't the Saints recruited well, Gehrig, Hamil, Lawrence". What a crock! I would much rather have Molloy, A. Rocca, Tarrant and Didak in my team! To allow for these players the Saints had to delist Shane Wakelin, who granted had a suspect achillies, but now is 110% fit and looks set to take over as our regular centre half back (and we got him for nothing!).

You are right FIGJAM, I think next to Hamill, Gehrig and Lawrence, the 4 Collingwood players you have mentioned stack up quite well. Particularly Tarrant and Didak who both seem to have an enormous amount of talent. I don't think Molloy is anything special, nothing more than a good honest contributor. I do rate Anthony Rocca quite highly and could be a top line player if he ever became more consistent. Gehrig and Lawrence have both had injury problems throughout the pre-season. Lawrence is a tough defender, an area that we were severely lacking in while Gehrig is an awesome talent that has never been able to make the most of his talents. A consistent Gehrig is an exciting prospect. But best of all, Aaron Hamill is reportedly training the house down. He is the best pick-up from both clubs without a doubt.

Just don't forget to name all of our recruits when comparing the two sides. For one thing, you have mentioned your number one draft pick in Alan Didak yet have neglected to mentioned the first two picks, Nick Riewoldt and Justin Koschitzke. I have no doubt that Didak will be a much better selection in the short term as our recruits are both very raw and are coming off an injury interrupted pre-season campaign. Yet in the long term, we have two very exciting young kids who both have incredible leaps and marking ability for their ages. (Much like Tarrant)

We have also picked up quality players like Matthew Capuano, Craig Callaghan, Brett Voss who I would think stack up quite well against players such as James Clement and Brodie Holland. Throw in a guy like Jason Cripps who is nearing full fitness after not playing since 1998 and we have the makings of a good young squad with some existing champion players.

I think both our clubs have some good talented players. I'm not really sure why you felt the need to compare us to Collingwood anyway. Surely you are not threatened by the rare positive publicity that we received over the break.

Lastly, I'm certainly not losing any sleep over the loss of Shane (and Darryl) Wakelin. I did respect the two of them for making the most of their limited talents and always putting in 100%. But frankly, I couldn't see either of them becoming world beaters though I would not begrudge them any success that they achieve at Port and Collingwood.

OH, really? thanks for letting me know michele, I really should have known that.. silly me.. *detect sarcasm*

the point WAS, that the pies beat the roos.. it has nothing to do with any of the other rounds.. the pies were the better team the last time our teams met..
I do agree with you though, willo will be a big loss..

 

[Are you fer real Groucho?]

Seriously mate what did you expect Bagger to say, " Gee Tony, they can't pay their players, the facilities are sh1t & who knows if they have any future. I'm just glad to have a job."

Everybody who switches clubs marvels at their new clubs level of professionalsm.
Molloy's weight-loss for example.

If anything saying 'that' is more a reflection on Bagger post 95 & that poor excuse for a coach.

Unless you were just shooting from the hip for the hell of it, put a little thought into your posts Grouch lest we think you to be foolish.

Collingwood to challenge teams this year? Heard it all before from supporters looking through their black & white glasses. I'll believe it when I see it. Can't see much of an improvement being made - but stranger things have happened!

P.S. Fraser to be the best player in the league in the next few years? BIG, BIG call!

When did Collingwood recruit a full back?

 

[Spidergirl~RiCkChiCk]

ah yes wot a beautiful news report to see Ricky boy back and running down the wing again almost brought a tear to my eye! (in a good way but not so for the other Pies ppl though hehhehhe!!!!)

As for Sav well i can't see much difference maybe youz just aren't used to him ah well good luck to him anyway!

and on the Saints recruits well i agree Pies ones r just as good as the over hyped Saints (bar Hamill) although we got a few losers too i think!

YOUS HAVE ALL LEFT YOUR SELVES WIDE OPEN AND THE JOFFA AND THE REST OF THE MAGPIES ON HERE ARE GOIN TO GIVE IT BACK TO YOUS ALL TEN FOLD.

I get up in the evening and i ain't got nothing to say,I come home in the morning,I go to bed feeling the same way,I ain't nothing but tired,Man i'm just tired and bored with myself,Hey there baby,I could use just a little help.

 

[Daphne]

Hey Joffa you will at least have to give them till after June, thats only fair. See where one of your new recuits has rolled his ankle and is unable to train for four weeks.

 

[eastaugh36]

collingwood wont make the finals !

 

[Magpie Gal 19]

Hey Michelle (or what ever u'r name is) Dont forget that we beat u guys with Carey (the w***er), McKernan and the rest of your top team in rd 21. What happened that day???
Was it the change of colours, did the orange confuse them, or was it that the Collingwood young guns rolled all over u ? Plz tell me.

Also those ppl saying Collingwood are 2001 wooden spooner, plz dont make me laugh. The Mighty Pies will not win the cup in 2001 they might scrape into the finals but the wooden spoon is outta site 4 sure.

The young player like Neon Davis, Nicky Davis Adkins, Shaw Lockyer, Licuria and other which include A.Rocca (yes his is still young), will take the next step up in 2001.

GO PIES !!!!

NICKY DAVIS KICKS ASS!!!

Wasn't much of an achievement then was it. Are you trying to tell us he's a good player? Or not?

I know what it was. North felt really sorry for Collingwood. They just thought it would be nice to give the Collingwood supporters some sort of hope for the future, and lay down and give you a win. Or was it that Collingwood dragged North down to the crappy level of footy that Collingwood plays.

Either way, one player can take a team only so far.

The Glove: make up your tiny little mind, w***er. Either the Kangarooteds were trying or they weren't. No matter what you believe, the scoreboard will forever show that we beat them that day. Yeah, one player can only take a team so far - ask Queen Carey.

 

[*miss_magpie*]

I wonder if anyones ever gonna stop making excuses for this one.. the roos were done, no excuses.. GO PIES

Calling Carey a Wanka these days is so old hat, once I used to get annoyed now i just laugh, at least his players didnt send a memo around his team mates trying to get rid of him, makes you wonder who the Wanka really is doesnt it. His captaincy has never been in doubt. There are some teams who put in a big effort when they realize the pressure is off, and as for the Collingwood players that day a lot of them were playing for their football lives. And yes they were the better team on the day, but the Kangas were the better team for the year

Unfortunately your eighteen havent been able to take you anywhere in the last ten years, not even one player, it is hardly a great arguement one game doesnt make a whole season, you also beat us in 96 on the last game for the season, where did that get you, we went on to win the flag three weeks later while you went fishing.And i think you have been fishing ever since. Sorry Joffa but they started it.

yes the Roos were done and as Collingwood ppl we should not treat it as a grand final win we should expect wins like that every single week!

It's ok Daphne, let them gloat. It isn't often Collingwood actually beat a team.
I'm surprised they weren't talking premierships, that usually happens when Collingwood win a game.

Gee what would happen at a Collingwood intra-club game, I don't reckon either side would score.

Well Rick Chick as you are also a Roogirl this year, you will get more wins like that, and so will Ricky, so really you are on a winner now.

Gee you don't hold a grudge do you Magpie Gal 19??? You seem a bit resentful that he can pick up anyone he wants. Are you trying to tell us you "WANT" the king???

maybe she was involved in an incident that occured a few years ago........ the one where the king used his hands to great effect.... i think it was a one grab mark.
