*9 Demon debutants #HalfThe18

9th debutant in a year with not many injuries #NotARebuild

If Max did his a serious injury, we’d have no mature 1st ruck cover Pretty obvious need I would have thought

I know we need some cheering up this week so here you go Will be 21 years next month. Grab some popcorn and enjoy friday night footy!

Lost at selection again Goody

I feel hungry Although I don’t deal with my emotions, I just make bad jokes, so who knows?

After tax, Simon will only have half of that 🤣

I’m not fully against Buckley. I think he is still hungry for a flag and would have learned a lot from his 9 years at the Pies

certainly was impressive to rebuild the list and make a GF. A list that didn't need rebuilding but nevertheless. However, by our (eg Goodys) standards he would not have gotten the chance. After 2 years of no finals with a talented list, he would have got the sack. Interesting to compare the 2 careers. Goody actually has the better finals record too.

I honestly thought if there’s one person happy today it would be you Goody is gone On to the next thing already? at least be happy for a few days

Add him to list of maligned played that are bagged on here. Then go well at another club and people wonder why we let him go He is 100% keep for me

Yep, let’s go there. Pies 2012 list was stacked and Bucks rebuilt it under the guise of poor culture

I would say with 15 premiership players in the 22 then yes. In Collingwoods case they were young and highly touted as the dynasty - more than most. He underperformed supremely and if not a pies legend would have been sacked years earlier

What about not finishing higher than 11th for four years straight with a premiership list?

Goodwin and Buckley have fairly similar coaching records Goody has the better finals record and obviously Bucks took over a premiership team Vs Goodwin a young up and coming team Bucks missed finals for 4 years with a very good list. I'm far from convinced

Buckley has hidden his feelings well over the past 30 years

I give it a solid 6 months before a ‘Is Horse the right guy’ thread starts if he gets the job

If it is Buckley he needs to burn a collingwood flag and and see a dentist possibly orthodontist too

Curtin is $1.50 and Langford $26 Harvs would be a chance for MVP best first year player which is a better award imo

And so the Fellowship of the Flag was formed *Parts of Bilbo and the Gimli have been cast already

not a bad watch. first season at least worth a look

Quality journalism Melbourne Demons rift emerges after Simon Goodwin sackingA Melbourne Demons player has lifted the lid on a potentially ugly rift forming among the playing group and club hierarchy after the sacking of coach Simon Goodwin on Tuesday.

But it is feeding the media which we could do without. “Demons rift in playing group” BS article based on Ed’s comments

True. I'm not sure we have the same stability over the last couple of years though. We need to get back to a functioning club and FD all on the same page

The thought of winning a flag with Buckley as coach when he never won one after 25+years at the Pies would be enough for me to go with him
