Martin a free agent so it's all about salary capNumber 35 wrote:If i was a new coach inbounding to Collingwood.
I would be well aware of Jason Johanessen holding off his contract talks. We need to replace Ramsay with this guy.
And i've been saying it for years. There is no doubt about it. Martin is the next Swan. Maybe possibly even more influential.
These 2 players are must gets and will make a dramitic change
No way and in the words of Aerosmith he would have got a "Permanent Vacation". No love in this elevator!Piesnchess wrote:yep, could sure use him now.thompsoc wrote:Does anyone still think giving JDG another 3 extra weeks was a smart idea.
I didn't so then and I still think the same now.
No it factually succincts the ineptitude of our kicking prowess excellently!What'sinaname wrote:This analysis is useless as it fails to acknowledge the difficulty of each kick, and therefore the likelihood of goals actually being kicked. Pendles right foot snap went OOF, but the most likely outcome was probably a behind.mooretreloar wrote:For the ignorant, of which there are many on this site, read the below:
Quarter 1
- Sidebottom misses a snap at an open goal

Quarter 2
- Fasolo misses a set shot
- White misses a set shot (from the boundary, so he should be cut some slack)
- Hoskin-Elliott shanks a kick from half forward across ground straight to Richmond, Cotchin goals on the rebound
- Aish misses a set shot
- Fasolo misses a snap towards an open goal
- Treloar kicks out of bounds on the full running towards goal under no pressure
- Pendles kicks out of bounds on the full on his right foot
Quarter 3
- Treloar misses a set shot after White finds him with a beautiful left foot pass around the body. Kicks this we are 22 points up.
- Mayne misses from 15 metres out
- Fasolo misses a set shot from directly in front
- Goldsack kicks in straight to Lennon, a goal results
- Grundy misses from 50 on the run under no pressure
- Fasolo tries to centre the ball to Moore makes a skill error and gives the ball to Richmond in a dangerous position. A goal on the rebound results.
At this stage of the game, we are 8 points behind, and there are 17 instances, that's right 17, were we should have goaled and stopped them from goaling. This is all from memory and if I went through the replay I am sure I will find 2 to 3 goals more for Richmond caused by our poor decision making or skills. The game should have been done and dusted at half time, let alone 3/4 time.
Consequently, stop posting drivel regarding Buckley and think before you post. This loss sits squarely with the players. If you don't think so, post something to counter the above. Not generic statements like, the coach is responsible for skills. You are kidding yourself if you don't think Buckley and his coaching staff work on our skills. It is easy to do it in training, but it is very hard to replicate the pressure of match conditions, which skills need to be executed under.
Secondly, it ignores Richmond's scoring opportunities as you can mount the same argument that Richmond could have kicked goals with every scoring opportunity.
He's also looking for (apparently) north of $700k. For a half back flanker, no fkn way.inxs88 wrote:Martin a free agent so it's all about salary capNumber 35 wrote:If i was a new coach inbounding to Collingwood.

Johannisen would need to be traded as he is 1 year away from free agency
your first line really is not very nice or necessary.mooretreloar wrote:For the ignorant, of which there are many on this site, read the below:

Not generic statements like, the coach is responsible for skills. The players are professional athletes paid a lot of money to do their job properly, which is to execute their skills and decision making on match days. Last night they were 2 out of 10 in these areas.
In conclusion, you are kidding yourself if you don't think Buckley and his coaching staff work on our skills. It is easy to do it in training, but it is very hard to replicate the pressure of match conditions, which skills need to be executed under.
