Re: Ed & Mick have Officially lost the plot.....

Too many posts saying get rid of Eddie and MM, Clean sweep of the players.

Ok who would be our next President? John So - Maa ov Mulbunn
And our coach Coach?

Also let's get rid of a number of players? Didak, Shaw

Better still lets ship didak and heath shaw off to Carlton. That way Carlton will be odds on to win a flag in the next 2 years while we rebuild and rebuild and keep on rebuilding.

In Eddie 's (in)famous (if somewhat meaningless )words...Collingwood must stand for something.................

Not something. Only 1 thing:

PREMIERSHIPS.

Some of you deserve to see what would happen to us without Eddie

There is no denying that Eddie has done a terrific job in turning your fortunes around, but you would think he was the only person capable sometimes.
Collingwood arent the only club to turn their fortunes around in recent years.
And seriously when you think about it it was way easier for Eddie to get sponsors with his media profile and pull than it would be for anybody.

Re: Ed & Mick have Officially lost the plot.....

I couldnt give a stuff what the laws are or are not. Collingwood is a football club, not a law enforcement agency. dishonesty can break the foundations that team ethic is built on, and doing it in a way that embarrasses the coach, president, and captain so pubicly is a far greater crime to the collingwood football club then drink-drive-crashing is.

yeah but Nardz collingwood is part of the greater community and that community and its laws and conventions need to take precedence....we had a sponsor for years in the TAC and our players were used to send out messages to wipe off 5 and be ambassadors to a very important message to the community...i guess thats all good to work on behalf of an govt group when the money was there...obviously we canned that sponsorship cos it was in the too hard basket to enforce controlled drinking with in the player group.....a two or three week plus monetary suspension would have been adequate you would think...
in the bigger pic as u say..Collingwood cant reprimand these guys well enough to put them off from future offences...thats why it seems like every season we have a problem...These guys are damaging our brand, we have media and other clubs laughing at our culture...its not about defending these two players its about defending Collingwood.....these guys, players and coaches will long be gone but their legacy may just remain.....ask StKilda.....about club culture and legacy....

Mick you should shoulder some of the blame over what has transpired with 2 of our best players in Didak and Shaw, it was YOU who said we treat our better players in a more favourable way than someone who is trying to establish themselves at this Club when it comes to off field indiscretions.
Step up to the plate Oh Great deflector.

Ha ha ha ha ha, Malthouse take responsibility, ha ha ha
This is the funniest post i have ever seen, ha ha ha
ha ha........ha... ha.....hmmmmm

You are a scaly dill mate. Your Club is imploding. Pity about the next five years.

I agree with Popeye. This is purely emotive rubbish written by a supporter with a Magpie bias. Ed will either bail or suffer an indignant next five years, Malthouse will be sacked, the players will not perform to expectations and the faithful will be left yearning for what should have been.

Here's $12; get a cab next time boys!
