alright i'll get the ball rolling here. so there's many supporters thinking negative about this season so far. we're getting ahead of ourselves here. its round 3. premierships aren't won in april and never will be won in april. don't get negative where everyone black and white cloud is, there is always a silver lining! so we lost to the hawks in round 1 by 22 if my memory is correct, and we played well considering our goal kicking accuracy and the line up. round 2 richmond, whilst it wasn't the most convincing win, we got up, good sides find a way of winning and we did that, it wasn't pretty but we won. this week we played Carlton, we lost by 60. this happens in footy, you win some, you lose some.

we weren't gonna be 22-0 the whole season, we weren't gonna be 21-1 the whole season, to be realistic we won't be 20-2 the whole season. what i can tell you is that in the next 4 weeks we have a pretty good set up for the season, im telling you now it won't be easy but we'll win all of them if not 3/4. whenever this side has it's back against the wall they find a way to dig deep and win, and win with a will! don't be surprised if we win by a goal next week, don't be surprised if we win by 50+. we have big fish to fry this season, we'll bring in players that WANT to play well, they'll step up and fill the voids that are killing us at the moment, didak, johnson, brown and possibly even youngsters in paine and sooner than we think, marley williams. dont be negative, GET EXCITED! you don't want to peak at the wrong time! 2009, we started the season 3-5 and peaked in round 9 against west coast and gained form and from then we won the next 12 of the 14 games left in the season and finished 4th!, believe me, for the long run we'll be fine, we have the players the core, the coaches know what they're doing, injuries won't help but hey, we are collingwood, we never say die. when others say it's impossible we say, it's nothing.

trust me when i say this, keep calm AND BELIEVE!!!

Nice to finally have some perspective! We were missing 4 All Australian against Carlton. How many were they missing? None. They were practically at full strength and ran us off our legs in the 3rd and fourth.

A lot of people have written Didak off. Even the commentators were doing it. Sorry but Didak at his best is top 10 - 20 in the league. If he gets back to his 2010 fitness, we will power home, into the top 4. Think about all the players who are yet to find form. Think how good Thomas, Swan, Pendles, Didak, Wellingham, Beams, Sidebottom can be. That midfield group when it gets going is unstoppable. On top of that i strongly believe that Blair can fill the Luke Ball void. He is strong in packs, sticks his tackles and showed in the Hawks game he is a clearance machine. On top of this Blair can kick a goal or five (Carlton last year).

Yes we are unsettled now. It happens to every team but i know i would rather have Collingwood suffer injuries now that in finals like last year.

It seems a lot of you were spoiled with our 20-2 home and away season last year. Our future is bright and we will have players step up throughout the season. We already have Keffee! 204 cm full back with less than 10 games experience. Is a great mark, quick and already showing signs of confidence through his improved decision making. Once this bloke gets 50 - 100 games under him we will have a great player on our hands.
