Prediction When the Man comes around

[jmac70]

There's a man coming round taking names...

WHEN we beat Melbourne on Monday there is going to be a payment required from all those who have disrespcted our great champion, Nathan Buckley.

The man abides.

And what happens when we lose to the bye the following week?

I laugh so hard right now.

Hey jmac earlier in the season you were as keen as anyone to part company with Buckley. I can only assume this is a tongue in cheek thread. And aren't you always telling others to keep their anti Buckley thoughts to one thread. Let's face, the guy's coaching career has reached a major impasse from which it seems there is no real chance of onward movement. He is a dead man coaching.

You are an intelligent person. If you read my post you will note I said "disrespected".

Is the new GOT season out? If so, oh joy of joys, oh bliss of blisses! As for Johnny Cash, I don't mind a bit of him. And jmac, what actually constitutes disrespect of Buckley? Obviously not simply, it seems, suggesting it's time for a change of coaching personnel and direction?!

Yes game of thrones is playing and being wonderful.
As for coaching changes too simplistic, in my view.
But still like Game Of Thrones

What a shame Thailand seems to block torrents. Maybe Cambodia next week will smile more kindly upon them. As for Bucks, I would love to be able to support him but I just can't. I dread turning up to the open air Aussie sports bars in extreme heat at 10 am to witness inept performances like last Sunday. The guy cannot coach. Nor should he be replaced by any of his assistants.

Does this apply to Bucks the player or Bucks the coach?

And don't make me laugh by answering "both"

Maybe he means Bucks the man!

Bucks would feel disrespected getting sacked no matter when it were to occur.

At least we are beating Melbourne next week......very good news!

Do you know the first goal kicker and the margin?

Cox kicks the first goals and the Pies win by 26 points.

It's the disrespectful language that some posters choose to communicate their opinions about Bucks that irks me. I don't believe that Bucks will be Collingwood coach in 2018. When the time comes he will handle his exit with dignity, it's a shame some posters can't do the same.

Excellent should be a great payday, plus the win, I'm excited

 

[Jelly Bean]

We are talking about Dave The Man, right? About time he is coming back!

Great character, great chemistry with Arya, and would be a super full forward!

Jmac makes a good point.
It goes to all of social media communication.
What level of respect should be afforded?

Id suggest answering the question of what level of respect? It should be as if you're talking to someone say in a pub or social setting.
But even on bigfooty we are all ostensibly Collingwood types but we still "hide" behind avatars, names etc,so the opportunity to launch or be particularly rude etc is easier so to speak.
Overall our forum I'd say is ok, lots of differing opinions and fair enough too.
Personally I don't like if particularly to someone like Nathan it's pure spite and vitriol, but that's just me.
Though I'm in the camp of letting him conclude his contract, I still respect those that see his time is up, assuming it's conveyed in a basically orderly manner.
