Good debut game from Gault. Wittsy played his heart out and did some really good things. Very sorry that Bally didn't get a better last game, but he'll look back over the his career and justifiably feel proud of all he has achieved. We'll miss you Luke.

Boys tried hard, Gault has got some potential, bunch of young fellas having a crack.

Hawthorn are a damn good team with class everywhere, look like the premiers, they just have incredible scoring ability.

I reckon we're a good 2 to 3 years off being a good team again and I hope Bucks gets the opportunity to see it through, it is really disappointing to see what people say about him on this forum. Its one thing to feel hes not a good coach but to call him a spud, parrot etc. is just a disgrace when your talking about a man that has bled black and white 24/7 for half his life or more.

Good post. He may not have it, on the evidence so far, but it may also be simply that we were due a rebuild after 2010/11 and the injuries have exacerbated the problem. We'll know more about our coach's ability in 2015, but he deserves respect.

A good, balanced game with 8.8 on the scoreboard.
It's an excuse that we kicked 8 goals and 8 behinds? That's what the "balanced" was referring to.
Well done boys!

Averaged 67 points a game this year.
Is this a record for Collingwood.?
Could someone do an analysis on our scoring.

^^I don't think it's a record. I think we averaged more last season.
Well done boys!

Every press conference now u have to watch that knob Stevens ask questions while no one else gets shown and speak over other reporters and generally be a pain in the ass.

Would be good to see Buckley walk in with a bottle of beer and take swigs in between questions.

That has been the most torturous half season I've ever experienced. I'm gutted and flat tonight despite knowing what was coming.

Crap game plan. What our players do with the ball is only beaten by what we do when we we don't have it. It's horrible.

There is not one aspect of our game that is good.

We are so far back in the pack now.

Don't let injuries or young players in the team deceive our current position.

We are bottom 4. Not 11th or 12 or 8th. We are way worse than that.

Our poor footy started before the injuries. We won't make the 8 next year either. It will be more of the same and battling it out with the dogs and blues. Uninspiring play. I'm sorry I'm so down on my team, my club. But we can't get basic setups right, like kick outs. We can't win contested ball. We can't use skills well. In fact skills are poor. Nothing is good in our play.

Really hard to get excited about 2015.

IMO the team needs to show some aspects of being good at something next year. Something! Then build off that.

The dogs are known as contested ball team. We have nothing. No brand. Our team's brand doesn't exist. It's irrelevant now.
