AFL Final Series 2012

Re: AFL Final Series 2012

Collingwood don't seem to have anywhere near the same level of structure they have had previously. People can question Malthouse but he had the team playing as a team this year they're relying on individual brilliance, it's not going to work.

Re: AFL Final Series 2012

Good to see the wobbles go down, I really took a dislike to Buckley when he ditched the Bears and went to Collingwood in wanting to play in a premiership team.
Him and Voss would have made a damaging duo and didn't he make the wrong career choice, then he pushed Malthouse out so he could grab some glory of Malthouses work.

I hope this bloke never gets to experience a Grand Final win.

I love the way the last few months the feral supporters have all turned on cloke and he then puts in a great game like that.

Will enjoy reminding them how much they hate cloke.

Daisy Thomas the new Leon Davis of finals footy not that we didn't know he was soft anyway. I knew once the game started and it was physical he wouldn't be sighted.

The story of how he knocked back Norf is even better. He had signed up a heads of agreement to join the Kangaroos, and literally at the last minute he backed out of it and went to Collingwood instead. He personally told Pagan that he was joining Collingwood to win flags - and didn't the Norf players take great delight in absolutely terrorising him every time he played them, Pagan whipping them into a rabid frenzy each time in the rooms beforehand.

And North went on to win the flag in 96 and 99 and Brisbane in 2001, 02 and 03. Five potential flags Buckley turned his back on. Karma for FIGJAM.

That's ridiculous.

Thomas was one of the reasons why they won the flag in 2010... He had a cracked rib thru that finals period and was an excellent performer.

Had he stayed at Brisbane, his trophy cabinet would be pretty full. Must be kind of a sore point with him. Joining a big club is never a certainty of a flag. Better to go where the best people are. Ask Nathan Brown.

Has the most odd shaped chest in football. Looks like he swallowed a BBQ. Hard as nails that bloke

Re: AFL Final Series 2012

I still think Collingwood are a chance. Most likely they will play WC in Melbourne, which they should win given the crowd and umpiring. Crows or Swan prelim. They have won interstate finals in both Sydney and Adelaide before.

They are still a quality side and things may very well fall their way.

Tarrant tried his darndest against Buddy didn't he? Was a good fight, but Tarrant had poor support. Too many passengers Collingwood. Sidebottom, Blair, had failry quiet games. Hawthorn are a killer team in all areas but the backline. They look a bit clueless at times and Cloke looked dominant against everyone they could throw at him.

Daisy has already proven himself in the finals. He has been pretty crap all year, no idea why he hasn't had the blow torch applied - probably because of Dawes and Cloke

Re: AFL Final Series 2012

Pies will lose to WC next week. Cloke won't have anywhere the impact and teams no longer fear Collingwood. Everything Buckley deserves

If North Melbourne beat West Coast on Sunday they could well go out in straight sets as North beat them comfortably last time although that was at Etihad not the MCG. If West Coast wins I think they will have enough too win and go through being at the MCG to the prelim final. They definitely have drop of the pace very slightly this year Collingwood.
