Can they keep him away from the wags?

He is already there so they probably have that problem solved.


Mind you he is the forwards coach and their highest score for the year is 82. Their forwards seem to have gone backwards or the setup wrong. I cant fathom why Howe doesn't play on a forward flank

Collingwood are cooked and Bucks is not the man. Sando is a better option this year than Buckley and that says something. At least if they put Sando in charge short term the players will learn something different rather than the shit they are going through at the moment. They have gone backwards in the last 4 years under the same coach and for the biggest club in the land they have put up with too much shit over the past 4 years.

Let's be real here this club were by far the best depth wise in 2009-2011 at all clubs and now they are shot. Hawthorn and Geelong both won flags well before and until last year were both highly competitive at least since 2007. Collingwood with their resources need a bullet at senior level.

Malthouse cost us the 2011 premiership and then gutted Carlton. If he's laughing it's because he's gone senile.

If? IF?

you're kidding, he's laughing all the way to the bank. He's been pensioned out (at our expense) then any comment he makes is now ridiculed in the media. I refer to his recent top 25 where he doesn't rate either Ablett in the top 25.

Clearly, an out and out senile imbecile.

He's laughing alright. Wanchor.

I would have thought so too.
He made sure he got what he wanted and now it hasn't worked out he should step down himself!
Can't see him or his ego doing it though.

Nah wouldn't think so

He wouldn't have been doing his job if he didn't have a succession plan in place and Buckley was as well creditionaled as any going around.

On top of that all clubs go through a rough patch after success it's the way the AFL is designed, Buckley will get sacked but wouldn't 90% of coaches end their time at a club by being saxked

It's been an unmitigated disaster for all parties involved.

Ratten lost his job despite taking Carlton to 11-11 in his last season in 2012 after a 14-7 season in 2011, all because Malthouse was on the market, Ratten might never be a senior coach again.

Malthouse lost currency when he took on the job at Carlton and went 11-11 ( by default played finals - Essendon* ), then 7-14 in 2014 before being pushed out at 1-7 in 2015. If he wasn't old and bitter before he certainly is now.

Buckley has taken Collingwood from 17-8, 14-9, 11-11, 10-12, 9-13 and now 1-4 all the while clogging up the list with the likes of Wells, Mayne, White, Varcoe, Dunn, Greenwood...all imports who were never going to be part of their next top 4 assault.

McGuire now has to decide if he is prepared to be around long enough to oversee a rebuild with a new coach, does he go with an experienced coach or a rookie in waiting. or does he prepare another succession plan? On his watch they've gone bottom to top and back to the bottom again....

Not in that short of a period and if you're smart operators then you can buck that system.

Sydney, West Coast, Geelong and up until last years trade period, Hawthorn, have all managed to remain competitive without bottoming out. You don't have to bottom out, you just have to be smart to avoid doing so.
