I would love to beat Collingwood on Grand Final day. Wouldn't all of our dreams come true?

He'd be a very good player if he wasn't on the same team as Riewoldt.

Not even close to Leo Barry's. Last chance for West Coast, all the pressure and attack being thrown at Sydney, no flag for 70 years.

I think anyone around here that knows me by now knows I'm anything but the optimistic type. But I strongly believe we've built a team that will be far better than any Bulldogs team we've seen in the last few years.

It's unbelievable. Hawthorn has a lot of bandwagon fans in the Eastern suburbs, but Collingwood, boy do they have a lot of 15-22 year old females suddenly appearing to be Pies fans.

We will have the opportunity to play in at least 3 Grand Final's this decade. Whether we can take the next step, I'm not so sure yet. But I truly think that we'll be one of the top 4 teams for a good 3-5 years, just like the Saints, Cats, Pies and Doggies have been.

Collingwood is the only Melbourne club I hate. I can handle the other clubs, but Collingwood to me is bottom of the barrel. A club built on the lower class. I hate West Coast more than any other club by a country mile.

Not sure what to do with myself right now.

I think it's great. Very South Fremantle. Really trying to establish Fremantle as their town, if they haven't already. Great move by the club over there. People need to understand that they don't have the history or culture that would dictate a logo and jumper like ours. Western Australian tastes, WA market. And it will always have a bit of flair and spunk. I think it looks great. Great incorporation of their colours, and they finally dumped the vomit-from-the-exorcist green.

He has turned the AFL into the big, prime-time sport that it is.

The Dion Prestia Thread? Really? lol Would love to see him in the red and blue! Although I think maybe Collingwood or GC.

I think he'll come to his senses and retire. He's not going to play for Carlton. And there's absolutely no way in hell he would ever play a game in that midfield.

Cam Bruce is definitely on his way out it seems.

Director of coaching I'd assume would be a mentor for all coaches; they are there for guidance, moral support etc. Could be of benefit, but probably more so for some in learning. Not for a Dean Bailey, who I think has gone through his paces as assistant and then head coach for a long time now.

I actually expected it to be some sort of Thai porn scam.

I very strongly believe we should keep Warnock. He can be another iron fist down in the backline. Can come into the side when we're taking on a St. Kilda with a very big forward line. I really hate the idea of throwing him around for trade. I'd rather keep him than get a tall forward with him to be honest. Defense is always more important.

Nice work by Davey. Terrible journalism though. Round 2 draw? Collingwood won the round 2 match. How hard is it to look up a fixture?

Sounds nice. As long as the core design is kept intact, I'm happy with anything that reminds us of history and success, as long as they're not overly intrusive. I liked having the Demon logo above the Primus logo in 2004, but I don't think the marketing team then, or now, liked that 90s Demon logo - it wasn't a very appealing logo and I can't imagine it being very appealing to prospective investors/advertisers. I'd much rather have the new logo anywhere on the jumper. Stars sound like a great idea. I'm sure some pro teams around the world do a similar thing. They also do it for the World Cup kits, and it blends in perfectly. I have a feeling that the core jumper, fused together with the new logo and stars will look great. I can picture it definitely.

Both Cloke's wouldn't get a game at another club. Cloke at Collingwood is no better than Brad Miller. He just has a superb coach and a fantastic midfield delivering to him.

I really hope we end up with one of Hale or Cox. If we can get one of those and lose Bruce, I'd be happy.

I think it's obvious Green will be the leader, don't you? Was superb this season, and lead the league on and off the field. Should be a unanimous decision. And Bruce is probably on his way out. And I think the club is smart and conservative enough not to make Davey captain. He can be a little hot under the collar on the field when things aren't going his way. I know I wouldn't make him captain. But I don't really know how he is like behind the scenes. He might be able to redeem himself that way, but we'll never really know.

Not sure what you expect. I think it's fantastic. Let's ditch the terrible "Melbournefc" and bring the Demon back. We need to create a brand, and the MCG and Demon are integral to that. I really love this initiative. Carn the Demons!

No, they weren't particularly memorable experiences, and really no different to anything else I see every other weekend. I just find it concerning that every single one of those moments involved a Collingwood supporter.

Great VFL player. Average AFL player.

I'm not so sure. Cox makes us a top 5 team imo. Jamar and Cox is a wonderful duo that could last well into the decade. Morton is a great player, but can he be as influential as Cox could be? I'm not so sure.
