actually I thought he was pretty spot on - youd be [censored] if someone was getting rid of you because they didn't like your opinions but told you something else.

I cant imagine buckley being very open to others opinions, esp those which might be different to his own.

the pies will never win a flag with him in charge.

as an aside, how good Is it to see other clubs becoming a rabble

I think the sooki lala treatment is just the medias spin. I see Jolly as a straight up and down sort whos just calling it as he sees it. And it does sound very much like Buckleys mo ( form all accounts )

It will be interesting if there is any truth to what he is saying about Buckley losing the respect of some of the players... is it possible that we might see the Pies start to stall and even fall out of the eight in 2014?

What's Buckley going to say? Professionally, you don't bring personality into an exit interview. Jolly's wrong. His straight shooting is absolutely off the mark.

Not defending Buckley. I agree with you, Collingwood are going backwards.

The guy [censored] canned Neale Daniher and josh Fraser publicly and now Nathan Buckley. What does that say to you? He is nothing but a spoilt little brat that didn't get things his way.

This has come back to bite him in the ass and so it should! Collingwood made the right decision and good on them. His body was absolute shot and he struggled at VFL level even getting a bath of Wayde Skipper in one game.

Best thing for him is to quietly disappear from the footballing world and focus on job searching.

Got no respect for him and never will after the way he carried on against ND and Josh Fraser.

And btw we aren't exactly out of the rabble ourselves. Collingwood aren't in any.

One can but hope....and how would Mr Ed cope with his lovechild failing? How long would he let him stay in the job? How could he possibly be the man to break the bad news to his boy "you are sacked"?

Ediie would resign first so someone else could do it.

I suspect the rise of Brodie Grundy last year had more to do with his departure than differing opinions with the coach.

For the record, in my professional capacity as a photographer I've photographed Buckley and, unlike many AFL footballers I've worked with, found him very approachable and easy to talk to. Confident yes but FIGJAM no.

Move on Darren.

Is there a club you haven't slagged?

Years of free booze ahead of you at three clubs if you can try to be graceful.

He also had a swipe at Daniher. I thought back then he might have been hard done by. But once you wear and black and white jumper any sympathy becomes null and void. If he can bat or bawl he would fit in well with a cricket team currently touring.

It seems Jolly isnt so Jolly afterall.

It would just be a simply gorgeous scenario wouldn't it :wub:

Unfortunately over the last couple seasons they have done very well with there recruiting/list management and I think they will up around the top half for at least the next few years to come.

Still, we can always dream of a better, happier place.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
