COLLINGWOOD president Eddie McGuire and coach Nathan Buckley have blamed a culture of "selfishness" for the club's failed 2013 campaign. The Magpies were bundled out in the first week of the finals after a shock elimination final loss to Port Adelaide at the MCG. The anger arising from such a disappointing season was evident in the key pair's addresses at the club's Copeland Trophy count at Crown on Friday night. Maybe they lost because their coach and team are DH's.

LOL Just shows how confused you are having a family full of Buckley (FIGJAM) worshippers. But we here in the Banana Republic are here to save you. Not to worry OD as fools are easily parted from there money. Buddy is a player who could only score 1 goal in the GF after a 50m penalty and they want to pay him $1.4m a year with not protection if he retires early. ROFLMAO then let them have him. What do you think the rest of the Sydney Team will think about the lack of money that they can now get? I would rather have a champion team then a team of champions any day of the week. Nothing has changed as we still need to build our team and now we have half a chance of doing that with an A Grade Coach. Goo the Dees

And I thought I was in hell when my father (my he rest in peace) became a Dockers members. But I am hearing that many people are much worse off then me. They actually have Collingwood supporters in their family. BB you are a Saint! Having found a nest of Pie supporters and you are still there trying to convert them to the Light (MFC). Now all you need is for the MFC to build a team that is capable of smashing Collingwood. I am afraid I would have the 1964 GF permanently playing on the TV with Its a Grand Old Flag playing in the background, if I was in your shoes, every time the family came for a visit. Plus every Xmas I would buy the wife a MFC Membership, if she complains I would get her two members. One for her dog as well. Football is war and there no time to smell the roses or show the enemy any fear! LOL

I remember the family shame when my father changed his support to the Perth Demons in the WAFL. This was the man who gave birth to a son who had one red and one blue eyes. Just because he lived a few doors down to Lathlain Park (now its the WCE training ground) which is Perth's home ground IMO is no excuse to change teams. Now if you want another team which will not win a Premiership with in the next 20 to 50 years that will be Perth. Its last Premiership was in 1977 and that Club can lose close to its entire League team from one season to the next. When my Father was alive and the MFC had real AFL players, I loved calling him when we beat the Shockers. I am not sure if it was my singing voice or if he was too busy at the time, but I did hear him say to Mum "I don't want to speak with him" when I called after the games. I even played the 2008 You Tube video of the 51 point come back from behind victory on my TV for him when he came to visit. It these special family times that makes all the difference. RBB I would link borrowing the car etc to how many MFC games your children attend. This works equally as well on the amount you spend on their presents as well. I know some may consider it a little harsh, but if you love them it these little things that's important and you don't want them to support Collingwood! If you have daughters grab a few MFC Membership Forms for when they bring boys home. You can never be too prepared and a great test if they are truly committed to the potential relationship.

I can feel your pain as to the lack of success. My first passion being a Western Australian was the West Perth FC and I remember the 20 years wait between the 1975 and 1995 Premierships. I had the hunger that was growing year by year. The day they won the 1995 (they won three more since) was special as the day before and the day after the victory I had a 12 hour drive to get to and from the game, it was worth every second of the 24 hour drive. The only Grand Final since 1975 that the WPFC was not the under dog was the 1993 (the year the Club relocated its home ground from Leederville Oval) which it was the minor Premiers. On the VFL and AFL front, I did not support any particular team until the WCE entered the competition. As a supporter of the WCE they gave me two Premiership wins before I moved my support to the MFC back in 1999. I had enjoy the 2000 Grand Final which the MFC was clearly the under dog and the EFC was clearly the outstanding team all season. Unfortunately the MFC has a history of being up one year and down the next. Although it been pretty much down over the past seven years. The MFC has never won a Premiership since I was born, which was in the late 60's. My hunger for success would not be as great as your OD with regards to the MFC for obvious reasons. But when the Club does turn things around on field as it must do (see the Hawkes) and wins its 13th Flag. That will be a very special day indeed for you. I can honestly say that will mean more to you then the 11 Hawks Premierships combined means to their supporters. So keep keeping the Faith and remember all good things come to he who waits. Plus what other team could you possibility support? I had a look in 1999 at what AFL team I could support and IMO there was only one, the MFC. I like Under Dog teams and think its a poor supporter who only picks winning teams. The MFC has done all it can off the field in 2013 and as supporters we are all waiting to see what the Club can do on the field in 2014 and beyond.

BBO I tied to focus on his shopping issue only because even I was in denial of what I read after that. It must be the wife's fault or the Education System. There is a lot to be said for home schooling these days. At least all my children support the MFC as I ask them daily, just before I feed them.

Just opened my membership renewal and there a Grand Final Guarantee option ROFL Like I will need that option in 2014. What are the chances of the MFC coming from the worst AFL team in one year to the one of the best the following year? They should have called this option the Pay Roos Salary and I would have donated the $80 in a heart beat.

No you are a Saint. But you not learnt the few tricks every good man should know. Firstly, when you go on such trips, plan ahead and find a number of escape routes or places you can hide until the danger has passes. Secondly, find the most expensive thing your wife would not want you to buy and buy it. Repeat this stage on every trip you are forces, I mean volunteer to go on. Then take your wife and Daughters on equal man time so for every minutes you spend doing their thing they must spend doing your thing, but ear plugs are a must otherwise it will not work. This is great way to encourage them to reduce their time shopping. Go to the hardware, sport stores etc any place you will enjoy and they will hate. If all else fails and your are required to go on more four hour shopping trips. Then just pay them off with cold hard cash. I know BBO and Moon would have really great suggestions for you as well. No thanks needed BB as we are here to help another Dees Supporter any way we can.
