I have received no media training and, frankly I think that's a good thing given the personality you get from it.

Hahaha pop over to the twitter if you want to have a look at the turd review, fairly humorous for me reading it back although maybe not decipherable at all https://twitter.com/SportsBlokeSays . I appreciate the kind words mate it means a lot and thanks for reading as always.
Collingwood Round 12 review

Collingwood Round 12 review
Really appreciate it Peter. Yeh love some of the Kids coming through, I’m feeling good about the future. Looks like we are in for more of a change quicker then expected to! looking forward to some fresh ideas from the new coaches. Surely we see a shake up at assistant level as well.

Hahaha cheers Chuck, The game was certainly deserving of an incoherent rant.

Cant wait to see what Wrighty can do with the club

Cheers Pete, always appreciated mate. You’re Dead right in my opinion, those Brown boys want it and want it bad.

haha cheers mate. Yeh I see what you mean, his manic style helps him plenty in the contest but coming out of it is definitely and area of improvement.

I would say it would be a monumental task for him to rebuild. I for one don’t think the 8 is an option this year and need to focus on a ‘reset/rebuild’ if he can make this a so called reset it would be an absolute master stroke from here. The question is, can we find the right coach out there to affect the reset more effectively then Bucks? I wouldn’t mind entering the coach lottery at this point. Would also love for bucks to make me eat my words about his ability.

development in the kids they played mate.

Thanks for the read mate. I agree we haven’t been completely uncompetitive. I don’t think we are here from being unlucky though.

Haha anytime mate thanks for reading my trash regularly. Yeh gunna be very interesting with bucks going forward this year. Lots of questions to be answered around his position at the club. Don’t think the club will be brave enough to trade Grundy I wouldn’t mind it if we nailed the picks we got for him.

I don’t want to mate but I committed to writing about my team each week at the start of the year and unfortunately this is where we are at haha. This is actually more positive then previous.
It's time for a reset at the Pies - for the club and for the fans
Thanks Peter, most rewarding part of starting to write this year has been the people that come back each week and comment. So cheers for being one of the ones I look forward to commenting. I agree mate we have some talent. We have a core of a decent team. It just needs less passengers. What ever happened to the blokes with good old fashion mongrel in them.

I appreciate it Kevo. Your right culture seems at an all time low something needs to change quick.

Your speaking facts my Friend! I really appreciate the kind words and the read. I love the club with all my heart mate even when I’m cursing them out unreasonably hahaha.

haha tune in mate if we loose it will be a hard one to write and keep my logical hat on.

couldn’t agree more mate, those kids are capable against men at the moment to so why not. Not saying they would light up the world of inside mids but should be able to have Brown and Daics go through the middle with Pendles and Tay Adams. Love sidey on a wing

Personally Sidebottom, DeGoey, Howe, Elliot, Maynard. I would even go Grundy for an extreme amount. It’s not that I dont absolutely love some of them but we need young guns and quick if we are serious about a rebuild.
Six games in, it's time for the Pies to burn it all down
Similar types at the start of their careers

Appreciate it as always Peter 👍 The winds of change are a blowing down at Magpie land. I’m feeling optimistic. Couldn’t be more right about Wright either, blokes not stuffing about.
