Would like to read the Magpies and Roos posters views about De Goey's game tonight?

Was left one out on a bloke with little defensive skills for too long. I thought they should have put Mackay on him sooner.
As for McClure, I love most of his opinions. Speaks his mind & doesn’t worry about offending people. Adds colour to the bland, politically correct media.
McClure is fine.

I respect and like the fact that he speaks his mind but I feel some of the things he says is so unrealistic and too 'old school' which doesn't fit/work anymore and he doesn't have a feel for the way clubs and players work in this era. Like I said, IMO he's a dinosaur.

DG played OK.
Yes on an average defender, but you still have to kick them.
Our biggest issue is that our major ball winners keep turning it over.
Bloody Noble frustrates the shit out of me.
Gets plenty of it but just gives it back to the opposition.

You're entitled to that view.
I don't agree with everything he says, but he stands by it which is more than others in the media.

Turn it up, DeGoey is the most over rated player in the game, lets see him do it against a top 16 team. Has not fired a shot all season. His opponent today in the 1st half was Bonar, not sure if he's ever played as a lock down defender.
Collingwood need to trade him with the postion they arein. Nobody else is going to give them enough to get Daicos

Just nowhere near the level of Port tonight in all aspects. Skill errors all night.

I just saw the free against Zurhaar for deliberate out of bounds. When are we as a paying public going to step in and stop this atrocity against our game?

FFS, I've had enough.

I umpired the D grade last week and they appreciated that I umpired with a speck of common sense and paid frees that were there but let the game play out.

Have a look at who paid the free.

Didn’t get the win. But gee there is a lot to be excited about. Didn’t give up all night. And full credit to the dees. Made it very difficult.

I know De Goey has performed poorly this season but for people to say the Magpies should just get rid of him is just silly IMO, people are just too quick to write guys off.

Dwayne Russell commentating Port games :lol:
It’s was like Eddie doing Collingwood games or Ian Robertson doing Carlton matches.
Funny but cringeworthy.
