[Thinking Magpie]

Interesting Article and possibly an insight into the new magpie machine....

Oranje is the new black (and white): Are Fly's Pies a 'Total Football' team?

Collingwood appear to have adopted a distinctly Dutch blueprint. Only now it reflects their own present, and past, to perfection.

That's one of the biggest compliments you can receive.

Holland's 1974 team was amazing. They were influenced by the legendary Hungarian teams of the 1950s.

Johan Cruyff (a player in 1974) later brought many of Michels' methods to Barcelona when he was coaching them in the late 80s/early 90s. One of the players from Cruyff's Barcelona team to be influenced from this is none other than Pep Guardiola who's arguably the greatest coach of his generation currently.

Even Maradona (arguably the greatest player ever) was in awe of Holland's 1974 team.

Arguably Johan Cruyff is the greatest player ever. Absolute star

True.

 

[Fat Jesus]

True.

I really liked Franz Beckenbauer growing up watching.
Known as "the emperor"
Or "der kaiser" in German.
I used to pretend to be him as a teenager. All the kids would call me Franz

I love this era. Whenever I have a epare 30 mins, I know I can just throw on one of our last quarters and be thoroughly entertained. Rounds 19 & 23 2022 at the top, but plenty of others to choose from too.

When we first appointed McRae, not in my wildest dreams did I think we'd be this good.

 

[FromTheBoundaryLine]

We definitely got one out of the box in Fly. Love watching the little interactions between him and the players and support staff. Last week against North at the end of each quarter he’d communicate a few things to Roughy who would note them down on a white board in preparation for his quarter time address. Just seems to have the bases covered. Meticulous spontaneity if that’s possible

 

[TradeDraft]

How badly we played make me think has our Gameplan been Figured Out?

We are on top of the ladder with multiple outs mate. I wouldn’t be to concerned. We won’t be winning every game.

We are on top of the ladder with multiple outs mate. I wouldn’t be to concerned. We won’t be winning every game.

And only lost by 4
