Collingwood and Steve McKee be? While Carlton fans battle with infighting, key retirements and a loss of draft picks, Collingwood will be in the process of winning a flag.
 
Easily top 4 and probably play off for the flag again. With another year under their belt the youngest list in the league will start to dominate games.

:eek:, Rohan...Rohan...Rohan.

Infighting wont affect our on-field performance. What key retirements? Bradley? He probably wont retire but it doesn't really matter anyway.
Loss of draft picks?
Well, you always seem to be the expert on that. You are obviously on the commission or you phoned up and said your last name was "Coventry", they rushed to tell you everything, inbetween treating you like a god!

Collingwood will never win a flag again in my lifetime, and THANK GOD for that!

Josh Fraser a full preseason.
Ditto for Anthony Rocca, Nick Davis (will stay) and Chris Tarrant. Scary is the word, we will only get better...

Do I need a comeback to BS like this?

Didak 19
Lonie 19
Cloke 19
Fraser 20
McGough 18

Nick Davis 22
Chris Tarrant 21
Shane O'Bree 23
Anthony Rocca 24

The peak age of a footballer is around 27/28. Yes it is very scary..

Take this tripe to the Collingwood or Carlton board. Don't really give a crap.

Its not, funny, witty, ironic or even remotely intelligent.

I'm sure there is a life out there with your name on it somewhere.

Go find it!

So Nick, Didak and Fraser will kick 40-50 each, Rocca will kick 70, Tarrant will finally live upto his potential and kick 60.. O'Bree will make all australia with all your other midfielders... McGough is another star.. Cloke is a star...

I can see Collingwood kicking 40-50 goals a game next year.

Collingwood will go the same way as St Kilda post '97. The Magpies have already peaked.

Don't think so.

St Kilda fell away not based on talent but a pathetic club culture. They were happy with 2nd, Collingwood isn't. With powerful figures in McGuire and Malthouse at the helm, this won't happen.

Rocca, Fraser, O'Bree, Tarrant and Nick Davis were all underdone. I doubt any of our footballers (except Buckley) have peaked.

Believe me, it's not as scary as you'd like to think. Just because you are runners up this year, it doens't guarantee anything in future years. You go on about St Kilda's pathetic culture making them go down after 97 but your apparently superior culture has delivered you 1 flag in 44 years, the same as St Kilda.

Even though we have only won 1 flag in 44 years, (2 in 45, it's a selective stat) we have always (apart from 1 bad era) up there when we have lost Grand Finals. We are consistently the most successful club going around.

Our culture was a big reason why we won 2 finals and ran the best side of the modern era so close.

Hang on a sec, before you were bagging St Kilda for being satisfied with second. All of a sudden "being up there" is good enough. I personally think you will finish about 8th next year.

Of course it isn't good enough but having said that I was basing this contention on the St Kilda 1997 analogy you drew. Our club culture dictates that we don't fall away, St Kilda's does.

Write us off, we like being written off at Collingwood. A big reason why we went well this year.
