The I ❤️ Collingwood thread.
- Thread starter Tigerfan
- Start date
Thats how i got drafted to the Richmond cheer Squad in 1982.
I was born in Australia but my parents came by boat.
It was under the Cheer Squad Academy scheme.
I grew up on Burnley st. So Richmond took me.
One more kilometre to the east, i would've been under the Glenferrie rd end academy.
I heard in real time from a high ranking source (albiet part of the extreme bucks hating faction),
That our Tom was on the verge of signing with collingwood when Bucks completely blew his trust
I heard the total opposite.
He was always pulled towards coming to us, but held meetings with Collingwood because his manager was keen to see what there offer was.
I reckon you are on the money Ezy.
That’s what I had heard that he was going to chose the Pies and us with the Hawks were (second choices).
Bucks stuffed it up by betraying his trust.
If my memory is correct he actually ( Bucks ) confirmed they met on tv. Not sure which show or whether he was interviewed by a reporter ( eve of the 18 ) finals series ? which I think caused Tommy some grief and angered GC ...
Is that how you remember it or anyone else remembers it?
Wonder if Eddeeeeee's angry enough to kick Figgy out of bed yet n make him sleep on the floor.
Might not have to worry bout his recent F#^#$ ups for much longer.
Chairman Ed gonna sort him out he made Eds beloved skunks as well his beloved Figgy and himself look like clowns again.
He might be back managing players shortly, the contracts he signs blokes up to he should have a healthy stable lining up in no time.
Definitely Addams Family. ..... Cox is more Lurch...... than bloody Lurch !
Could also mount a reasonable case for Uncle Fester DeGoey
Pies list managers, Ed, Buckley etc. copping plenty but with Treliar I reckon the truth will be somewhere in the middle.
Players don't really like him but wouldn't tell him or he refused to believe it.
Getting paid too much for his output. Hamstrings a big concern medically with 5 years left. Shot?
Wife heading to Qld sewed a seed of doubt towards his long term commitment given the Pies shopped him to GC last year.
Pies have been silent to make sure the trade goes ahead.
It's definitely not a one way street.

He's gone off the Dimma program completely.
Dimma started our success by asking players to embrace each other's differences.
Buckley hacks Stephenson off at the neck on the basis that he felt he was too reserved. He's a 20 year old kid FFS

One of the posts has now got about 80 likes and a bunch of responses from ferals baying for blood. (Not that I blame them).
I didn't need to pour kerosene on the fire, seems to be burning well and truly out of control without my help. Lol.
Buckley isnt a peoples person.
That fake nice guy crap was never going to last.
The coward didn't have the balls to ring a 20 yr old kid to tell him his time was up at the club.
His job has to be under pressure now.
I heard today under Buckley and Hine, Since 2015 they have had 2 first round picks, Stephenson who now is gone and Quaynoor who was an academy selection.
The ferals are very very angry
Good times General!
This couldn’t happen to a better club.
I don't know how Collingwood could entice a big free agent 12 months on from showing every listed player how rubbery a big contract is with them. Treloar has even more reasons to be banging his head against a wall over his decision to select them over us.
He gave up premierships and the opportunity to be at a club which genuinely respects it's playing list, for one that treats it's list horribly. Ironically, Neil Balme seems to the the catalyst in guiding our club on player relations when dealing with contracts. It looks like the Pies learned nothing from his time with them,

Tigers winning three premierships, having the best culture of all clubs, off field we're showing leadership and living what we speak. After 30+ years of being *smile*, that alone is remarkable.
The fact Essendon and Collingwood are self destructing like a 1990s tiger outfit, is the ice cream, cream, sprinkles and cherry on top.
It's like a gift from the gods. Football karma.
Two of them are club captains, not many of them run of in search of a premiership elsewhere.
Pretty sure Geelol won all three of their flags while Balmey was there. We've won three flags n perhaps more while Balmey's been here.
The outlier on Balmey's admin, he's had two stints at Colonwood n been shafted by them twice. During that time, three lost Grannies, nil flags for Colonwood plus after he's been pushed out first time Eddie n Figgy have managed to initially shaft MnM then this time shaft half their players. Obvious Eddie n Figgy can't handle having someone rational, logical n calming keeping things nice n smooth with egos kept fully in check.
#LOLCOLONWOOD, *smile* halfwits.
