Helloween6 said:No and there is a big story he and Thomas r going if Malthouse isnt resigned

I heard that one too, but I doubt they would. Premierships is what players want and if they stay at Collingwood they'll have a better chance than anywhere else.

I don't think Buckley is intelligent enough to be a coach, and this is based off the various interviews I've seen with him over the years. He is a complete meat-head.

However I think the playing group is strong enough to perform well even with a bad coach. Dean Bailey could take these guys to a premiership.

LOL thats very true but if they do loose a couple of big stars they could find it very hard
Malthouse will eventually leave, whether it's next year or 2013.

I don't think he'll be at Collingwood next year.

Definitely.

Don't be surprised if when Malthouse starts coaching again a bunch of players go with him, just like when he left Eagles for Pies.
Who went with him to Collingwood?

Beta said: Who went with him to Collingwood?

GEEZUS. Do you know how long that was?

He took a few players, most of them where developing kids but it did hurt WCE quite a bit. I might have to Google this one.

EDIT: ok I've found 1 so far... Chad Rintoul.

Why are old footy records so hard to find?!

Won both Supercoach matches too very happy with that!


Do i have you?
Prelims again bitch?


You sure do although I'll lose a fair few of my better players because the Blues have the bye.
Should give you a good run though.
@IAMColonel
From the AFL site I was using the ladder predicter and I had the Saints missing the 8 too, I think North can get over them next week.
Its going to be a really good match.



You have trades left though right? lol
No trades left I'm ****ed this week I think. [Facepalm]

Lol i am undecided who to bring in? Sandilands just to match you to be annoying:P

I have 3 trades by the way.

Either bring in stevie j/fyfe for pavlich

or Sandilands in for bailey.

Yeh man unlucky 3 carlton players but im resting judd & gibbs not trading them.

Probably Stevie J i think he will explode this week.
You shouldn't be able top see my team! [Rage]

winga26 said: You shouldn't be able top see my team!



Haha don't worry my other more important league the guy i got is so close to me im ranked 2400 he is 4000 hope dal santo has an off one lol.

Wanna see how sandilands runs around already seems to be hitting form.

Why did I bring in Pav a few weeks ago [Facepalm]

Worst decision? i think you could cop a 0 :'@

Its ok i will play nick riewoldt lol.
Pendlebury is signed for next year and it's not that easy for players to just up and leave and go wherever a certain coach goes.

Yere they can just quit when their contract is up but than they have to get drafted to the right club which can be manipulated by putting a huge price on your head but than it all has to fit into the salary cap aswell especially if it's more than one player who is following.
Finally a Live game on tonight, even thou it'll be one sided
**** im going to cop a 0 this week :( hopefully it doesn't cost me

Much easier with free agency coming in next year.

I just didn't think many people went with him.

Beta said:I just didn't think many people went with him.

If I had the time I'd go through Collingwood's players, I think 2 or 3 players went when he first left and then Rintoul and someone else joined in over the next 2 seasons.

If I get sometime later today I'll do some more research. It was a pretty big deal over here in the West.
Fev's kicked 33 goals in his last 5 VFL games. Surely someone should give him a go. He's only 30, another 2 seasons left in him if he can find some form.

I suspect rookie listed. Might even have to wait until the end of the pre-season if he has to prove himself for someone's last spot.

Not really sure who would take him though. Either GWS, who don't seem interested (but would get them some attention), or a club needing a full forward that's pushing for a flag next year. Who's that?
Scott Cummings went to the Pies in 2001.

Damien Adkins was traded from Collingwood to West Coast Eagles in exchange for Andrew Williams. Whoever they were? (2002)

That's all I can see up til 2003.

Just looking through some of these drafts, wow they were so stupid. They are that much more thoughtful now, just 10 years on. So many no names that never made an impression at AFL level, such a waste.

Hawthorn trading Croad/McPharlin for 3 draft picks which eventuated in us getting Mitchell and Hodge. As well as Campbell Brown and Ladson that year.
I think if Fevola goes anywhere it'll be Melbourne.
