It won't change until Buckley leaves.
I'm already dreading a wasted year ahead.

Kick the (*&^%^& thing

Yeah, who kicked that shot ball into the middle and turned it over?
1. Took too long to kick it.
2. Was a soft and short kick.
Cost a goal.
Thats at least 3 goals we've gifted them. And look at that, we're down by three goals.

This is rubbish, I reckon neither team is getting much from this. 9-12 for us based on not much sample size.

Why would you want to be a forward under Buckley. Over use the handball downfield and then if we get it free bomb it long to an outnumbered forward line after all the defenders have pushed back or playing extra players on the ball.

Also, our midfield doesn’t look much chop. Sigh, long year.

Nothing I'm seeing here suggests we're kicking a big enough score this year to win a lot of games.
Our defence is competent and will keep us in games, but we simply don't have the attacking weapons to do any serious damage.

I've never seen a less competitive Collingwood half forward line in my life. We seem to lose evey contest there. It's a trampoline.

We all want faster ball movement. But we need to be smarter about it.
Yes, a faster game plan is required, but we dont need to rush off every single time. It doesnt hurt to go back and kick it sometimes. Dont like the play on, hand ball, hand ball, hand ball backwards, turnover, Richmond set shot.
Faster ball movement. But smarter decisions too.

OK we are missing checkers but that kick from Pendles just there highlights our problem. Kick lands 20m out from goal a very dangerous area but it’s 4 on 2 against and no talls at all. Players like Elliott and Henry flying for marks.
How the f$&@ are you meant to kick goals like that.

Maybe that is why Will Kelly got injured;
he knew that the year as a forward under Buckley wasn't worth staying fit for.

3 goals in a half. In perfect conditions. With a new man on the mark rule where the defender can’t move.
Same old embarrassingly disgusting skills and decision making. The thought process from our players is just absolute confusion.
One more half of football before we play for actual points. Wow.
Buckley is just about done. He knows it too. Same squad he’s had for years. Same rubbish they’ve delivered sans a few lucky fixtures, finishes, and out of the box finals performances.
I wish it was different. But the evidence is there to see. We are MILES off the pace based on last night’s football and Richmond’s clinical play.

Kelly’s shoulder looks like a collarbone hope it’s not broken
Sidey has done a calf no reports other than they don’t think it’s to bad at this stage which is Collingwood speak for he likely won’t make it through the night
Overall we are shit
That about sums it up I think |

I think we should kick it Grimes more. Maybe we should recruit him as a full forward. We seem to hit him on the tits with regular ease.
