We need a strong leader, like Idi Amin or Pol Pott, to sort this lot out.

No no, do go on [reloading sounds]
With things going so bad on the footy field we can focus our attention on having four presidents in 2021 and enjoy the blood letting. Who needs the Roman Empire when you've got the Collingwood football club.

You think that two of the most murderous psychopaths of the twentieth century are good leaders?

I can’t believe how stupid that suggestion is.

There’s one thing having an opinion about the current state of the team and club but to bring up those two murderers is both mind boggling stupidity and irrelevant to football, Australia and everything that is the basis of decency and humanity.

I can't believe you can even think that Big T is being serious here. Both of those people are dead, so that kinda takes away the prospect of him being serious.

The suggestion was that we needed leaders like them. Sorry but i do not understand in any way how any of their traits would be a requirement of a leader that we need.
Sarcasm or not, it was not appropriate and is in no way appropriate on Nicks General Discussion Board.

Take it to the Tavern!!

Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

I struggle to see what that leadership style you seem to admire would bring to our Club culture?
I love this club and I hold anyone in contempt who does not think it is worth fighting for.

I wouldn’t say either Pol Pot or that other clown inspired a winning culture. Exactly what methods that they used would you suggest would work at Collingwood? Both where losers!
