now you are changing the context. We were not discussing his role as an assistant coach. Totally different kettle of fish anyway, I sincerely wish him all the best in Adelaide as an assistant coach

Face it WYL, you feel sorry for Bails so you are making excuses and flimsy claims because he was a nice guy who got a dirty job but in the end was very average. Where is all your tough bruise-free talk now? He was just a journey-man coach taking us no-where

whats that got to do with "but as a teacher of Raw kids, Bails did a fine job"?.

I hear this comment often but I can't see any proof of it Any coach (or no coach) would have seen some development out of the list, esp as so many were top 20 I was unimpressed when Bailey got the job and I was unimpressed when he left the job He might be a nice bloke etc but he was nothing but ordinary as a coach. No need to gild a lily

don't sweat it, organisation charts reflecting reporting lines and functional reponsibilities are often difficult to portray I think Neeld is the type to insist on what he wants and won't take shyte from anyone

Is Mister Rude still around?

Be like taking candy from a baby old dee Anyone could do a better job than MeatHead and MeatLoaf Personally I don't see what a rock band (or similar) adds to the occasion. Would rather watch the TAC final as an entre and minimal "entertainment"

I reckon we could get Kevin "Bloody" Wilson for a decent price Has got some ripper songs and would probably write a new one just for the occasion

On the surface it would seem a rather lame appointment to not the assistant fwd coach but the fwd coach However it would seem to be Neelds decision and he has worked with him so I have to accept at this stage that Neeld knows what he is doing

I doubt it edit: except hardtack apparently lol

Because they just do..............Collingwood create a new record in 2011 GF Collingwood have played in a record 44 grand finals, winning 15, drawing two and losing a record 27 opening up a huge margin on their nearest rivals.

...........the premiership's a cat-walk.......................

Don't you mean Liz Hurley?

Frankie Ifield anyone??? Good aussie

Apparently Dr Hook is already locked in for next years GF with Tommy Steele doing the National Anthem (Cliff Richard was otherwise engaged)

maybe nasher is a closet collingwood fan? maybe it was an overreaction to the Bolter court decision? sure is a mystery to me

Yes old dee it has somewhat (not totally) restored my faith in humanity and Collingwood to its rightful place

I sometimes despair for this forum. One poster confesses to messing his underpants, another obsesses over a player frontal region firepower (whatever that is) and now another is fixated over a horses genitalia.......................and the drafting silly season hasn't even started.......sheesh, I'm getting confused and the price of bananas is still over $10

with all the lower abdominal saturation I hope you're not implying he has become a gay icon?

you've never tried my mum's cakes

Burwood IGA bananas $10.79 Kg - I'm losing patience.....Grrrrr

Nice piece anthony. I think most here would love to see Aaron back to his exciting skilled best....I know I would I think part of the angst shown to Aaron this year is as much a frustration of the whole year, the whole team and the lack of contribution from many senior players

If you can get the price of bananas down to $2.99 you will have won me over

Do you have to be so long-winded? Two words too many old dee.

maybe that will be the job of one of the eight promised assistants? twitter assistant coach.
