Well Mick didnt have the 7 years Buckley has had...i think Mick guided pies to a flag and a runners up when he was moved on. Buckley hasnt been anywhere near finals until this years easy draw.Mick is a PROVEN coach .... not sure what Buckley is. You apparently are a guru now...hahahaha..thats hilarious there must be a comedy section in this new theroar.com setup.

Can't stand him but great comment. We're not attending the ballet here.

Not over the line at all. Hawks are not to be underestimated but they were actually pretty awful and flattered the Tigers who come preliminary final will have one 3 point win over the lowly Dogs and a soft win against a slow Hawks line up in a month of footy. Not great preparation IMO.

Yeah Mick did really well at the Blues Pieman, just ask Macca. He was clearly not spent was he? It’s too clear you are a Blues man masquerading as a Pies fan but I’ll humour you with that little gem regardless.

Sorry Peter i am not jealous or envious of either ed or buckley i just cant stand dictatorships. I absolutely believe he got it right signing up Malthouse and i absolutely believe he got it wrong with buckley and unfortunately guys like you give them a leg to stand on. I did say they didnt beat anyone IN the 8 apart from dees.. ..you obviously cant comprehend that well Peter.

E. McGuire was wrong in so far as there was clearly no push in the back and thus no free kick to pay. However, he is a passionate supporter and barracks hard and one eyed like countless thousands of AFL supporters and good on him for doing so. Just because he is who he is, shouldn't stop him from allowing himself to be swept up in the emotion of the game as do so many us.

Are you suggesting Melbourne are already over the line against the Hawks ? Also the fact that Melbourne had everything to play for in that game , Eagles were without Kennedy and Darling went down early in the first and were down a rotation for the rest of the day. Melbourne were without Viney and Hogan. Be interesting if the make it, I really rate the Dees, but never underestimate the Hawks.

Yes, but the biggest thing is the Eagles need to beat a Melbourne side who accounted for them comfortably in every facet of the game just a couple of short weeks ago in Perth.

Who can blame him for feeling a "bit" tense, Collingwood really needed a goal there. It was also a case where you could see the free kick scenarios go the opposite ways at the MCG.

Good on Eddie, Collingwood man through and through, who hasn't lost the plot when barracking.

The Pies did not lose to a side outside the eight for the entire year. That in itself is deserving of finals. You of course leave out the fact we booted Port out of the eight by belting them by 8 goals, stopped North's run by 8 goals, belted the Demons when they had won 6 in a row by an average of 65 points, lost to Sydney by a fingertip, but hey you don't think Blues, Saints, Suns fans would happily accept third place and a minimum of two finals? Fair enough Pieman, all you are doing is exposing your envy of Ed and Bucks.

Imagine poor old ed next week when pies lose to GWS. Understandably because its his succesion plan that is being exposed as the big scam that it is. Dont know if anyones noticed but pies havent beaten a top 8 team apart from Melbourne before dees turned the corner...proving that the draw got them there not the coach. Pathetic Ed and little Nathan.
