Next year this, next year that... Look, it's all good many of you are optimistic, but many things can occur next year that could turn out to be like this year. We were 8-2 up and we were cruising this year. Buckley made some terrible decisions in his team choices and I'm beginning to doubt him. He says the right things in the media but I'm more concerned what he tells his players. I don't think he was ready to take on this role after having only coached for two seasons in an assistant role. He inherited a great team and he has failed. Eddie shouldn't extend his contract. If he fails next year, he should be gone. It's as simple as that. Even Richmond is winning for crying out loud! We are embarrassing.

We have Richmond's spot on the ladder now so it's OK!

Right now no game is safe. We might even have trouble beating GWS in Round 22. And the less said about the Hawthorn match in the final round the better.

Where to start. OMG can we simply play man on man football for gods sake !
Ok simply not good enough effort. Too inconsistent with our effort during each term.
We get 4 players to a contest against 2 and loss it HOW ?
The crows win the ball and they swarm forward in support for each other running past collingwood players who just let it happen.
Who the heck was on Smith he set up more goals from there half back than anyone in a black & white player for the season.
Our kicking is below an acceptable standard and it's not just oe or two players it's the majority.
Little dinky kicks and handballs to turn over and then burned going the other way.
Keefe for all his efforts shouldn't be allowed to kick in even in practice at training he is hopeless at it. We have young who can boot it a mile let him kick it to himself then boot it 65 so at least it's not back within a kick.
Oh and have any of our players heard of the word sheppard ? Can't remember one today again.
I've been a Buckley defender this year but not now. He doesn't do enough during the games to change momentum.
We need experience in the coaches box. Bucks might be a good coach in years to come but ATM he isn't.
We either no competitive game plan or the players can't follow it either way it's a shambles.
Eddie go and sack Lappin and Eade they don't care for collingwood.
Hire a Chocco Williams some one who actually can read a game during the match and help Bucks.
Well 2014 is effectively over no matter if we luck into the finals we are shot birds so to speak.
Play Martin and the rest of the kids at least we can get games into them and decide exactly were we are at.
There are a couple players playing for there careers in the next few weeks so will be interesting to see how they respond.

Did we win the contested footy and tackle count,because that's all Buckley seems to care about.He doesn't seem to worry about skill,execution,and the ability to bloody well kick the football.

We're a rabble and a very inconsistent one at that. Poor disposal and decision making costs us week in week out and what are we doing to rectify it? Nothing! Bloody nothing. It's always the same players making the same bloody mistakes. We struggle to move the ball out of the defensive 50 and when we do, we generally stuff it up and give it straight back to the opposition. I don't understand what this obsession is with our hand ball frenzy. The effen crows were allowed to move the ball more freely and used their options up forward much better than what we did. Our mids struggled to get into the game and our senior players couldn't stand up when it counted. Our forwards were either held, manhandled or had to put up with shitty disposal from the midfield. Yes I get that we're a young team with a lot of inexperienced players, but how many of them actually know WTF is going on. Another thing is that we get slaughtered on the spread by the opposition and our players struggle to man up when they need to. The umpiring was a disgrace and I hope that they all choke on their whistles. We don't deserve to be anywhere near the 8 and we'll struggle to win another game from here on in.

Didn't watch the game, but expected the loss. I said in round 1 that this was going to be a development season, and although we were top 4 at one stage, I can't say I'm that surprised that our season has slid.

I'm happy now to get games in to our kids. If we win, it will be pleasant, but I refuse to let myself be sucked in to the gut wrenching dissapointment over losses that I've had the past few years. I know deep down that long term, the experience out kids are gaining now will translate to success, and I'm ok with the short term pain.

I'm sad ..... we are poo!
