Roos isn't an option.
Injuries are a documented fact this year, they've had a bigger impact on us than any other club in games lost and potentially points lost.
In signes of development, Fasolo is one who has certainly improved.
As others have said, Aish and Grundy have both improved over the course of the year, as have Manyard and blokes like Smith and Wills have come in like they belonged.
Sanderson will provide assistance to Bucks next year as well as a good sounding board.
If you can get past the WL for the year, there have been a lot of positives in the manure pile.

Essentially get a good coach and prop Bucks up as figurehead

It's about the only way Bucks will get his hands on that elusive premiership cup.  |

And when he does, will you celebrate the premiership or come up with reasons about how we managed to win despite Buckley?

I'm not worried about it as it's never going to happen. You just don't get it do you. I pity you. |

Why would you be worried about how to behave if you were actually a Collingwood supporter? Thanks for the clarification and please, I don't need or warrant anyone's pity.

Because you are yet to grasp how long this will truly take to recover from and we are both Collingwood's supporters who have our hearts invested in the club.
The day I knew Bucks would 100% take over from MM, my heart sunk because I knew our premiership hero's such as Swan and Pendles would never win a flag again.
But it is what it is.  |

It is what it is, I'm in for the long haul.
I lived through the losing grandfinals of the 70's and 80's, through the New Magpies who almost sent us bankrupt and all the other dramas and turmoils.
I'm neither delusional or unrealistic. I'm utterly pragmatic. I can see what's happening, I just choose not to chuck my toys out of the cot and point fingers after every loss.

Yep, very true, I often wonder how these negative pissers and perennial moaners would have handled supporting other real down and out clubs,like the dogs, deeees, saints, decades of unmitigated disappointment and utter shit, season in, season out, of just dire crap. Yet, the fans of those teams, like the tigers and blues now, stuck fat. I reckon certain ones on here, would not have handled such prolonged lack of success, they would be babbling incoherently in a dark corner no doubt, they simply cannot handle a few down rebuilding years.

Going by your way the French would still be listening to Mary Antoinette calling from her windowsill for them to eat brioche...
Maybe Eddie will one day may throw you a bone but until then, you may as well lay with the fleas because its obvious that you accept mediocrity.
PS: Rebuilding, to be honest... they don't know what they are doing... coming going... in a premiership clock window... not in one... Beams/Daisy staying... opps no they were serious... going... etc etc |

Yeah but even a baby would figure it's a bad idea if no one is picking the toys back up. Another year of this?
Someone needs to man up.

Don't knock it 'til you've tried it. Totally cathartic.
Plus you could do with the exercise.

Oi, I resemble that remark.
And anyway, I've got a shed to knock down so if we lose on Friday night, i'll put baby* to work on Saturday with some vigour.
*baby is a 8 pound sledgehammer head welded onto a piece of steel pipe for a handle.
