Eade to Collingwood

Featured Replies

Posted

It appears, according to the 7 news, that Rodney will be appointed coaching Director at Collingwood by the end of the week. It also appears that the players and the club knew Mickey was leaving and that was confirmed by Maxwell in the news as well.

Eade will have a bit of a job controlling the ego of Buckley and I wonder how long he'll last.

Who Robbief Eade or Buckley?

 

I think Mick's been a little hard done by, and if this stupid deal wasn't in place he would have still coached next year. This will hopefully start to unravel things down at Scum town!

I couldn't care about Eade going there, or Buckley coaching them.. I want to focus on my team next year. The rest is merely gossip!

Go Dees!

i just hope Malthouse talks to Mark Neeld quite often next year....i am positive Mick will help Mark to succeed.

I get the feeling Mick wants Neeld to succeed more because Neeld really is Malthouse's protege and was being groomed by Malthouse, whereas FIGJAM was forced upon him by the Pies and became the successor without Malthouse wanting it.

 

Buckley taking advise from Rocket? I just can't see Buckley's ego giving him a second of his attention.

Shame most of the action will take place behind closed doors.


Going to be fun to watch though ... :)

Time for a rumour

Will Pendlebury join GWS in 2013?

Exactly. Malthouse's heart will beat very true for the red and the blue next year. I think you can virtually add him to the list of new MFC coaches for next year, albeit on an unofficial basis.

The dislike between Buckley and Malthouse is palpable, and human nature would probably dictate that Malthouse wouldn't want to see Buckley succeed. Neeld, on the other hand, is his man.

Im dont usually speculate but when a player in his prime signs a one year contract only it sends one message - big bucks or I'm off

For me it reads he is hedging his bets, if the pies are still flying and more importantly, Buckley is a good coach, then he will sign again and stay. If not, the bye bye.

Wishful thinking.

Malthouse has the teams best interests ahead of Buckley and for that reason he will want to see the Filth challenge again.

Mickey said the other day I was born a "Collingwood supporter and I will die a Collingwood supporter".

I was under the impression that Neil Craig will be Neeld's mentor?

In some way I was hoping we would get Eade on our coaching panel. Only so I could yell "Rocket! Yeah!" I'm disappointed that pleasure has been taken away from me.

Probably a good thing he didn't become the head coach then.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
