A premiership team wasn't dismantled. Leon, Leigh Brown, Ball, Jolly and Swan retired while Heater and Lumumba had a brain fade, Beams returned to Brisbane, Daisy had stress fractures in his feet and Cloke deteriorated as a player. Ultimately our demise is a result of poor draft selections in the 2012-13 drafts and poor pick ups of experienced players mainly under free agency. The successes, specifically Varcoe for Lumumba, Adams for Heater, Treloar for two first rounders and Howe and WHE for second rounders, are outweighed by the losses of Daisy, a match winner in his day, our free agency busts, retirements, the loss of draft picks that we used to pick up the experienced players and the busts of the 2012-13 national drafts. It's poor list management that got us where we are. Does a distinguished and decorated player ever think that he's not ready for the role? Hardly. It's mistakes that people are judged on and Buckley will be judged on his mistakes rather than all the good he has done for the club. He's hardly in the same league as James Hird but that's the way it is. I don't understand people losing respect for a player who has given so much for the CFC. He's still a hero to me and his wins and losses in the record books as a coach doesn't change anything to me.
