Ahhh well i haven't been for a job interview in 23 years so i wouldn't know about that😉.

Yeah i did just see that, hope he gets what he deserves.
Hopefully the afl don't find another position for him as i read they might.
His brother can't even get him a good postie round anymore either😉

Big half time scores tonight. Cats not unexpected,  96 still huge tho . ..more befitting of full time in recent years.
But Saints?? WTF? Richmond seemed hell bent on self destruction. 92-10 half time is beyond embarrassing.
Only thing worse was Bombers v Suns in the suns' 1st season when they had 90+ put on them in the 1st qtr.

Now that a club executive has said his position is safe we can start the count down to the announcement of his sacking.

Guarantee Bucks is coach until after the final round. Even if they announce that his contract his not being renewed, which is a given now.
McGuire won't allow it (remember he engineered this deal) and they didn't do it to Tony Shaw.

Achieves nothing punting a coach early. I can't remember the last time an interim coach was given a contract for the next season.

Hey, they're not Carlton!  Only 4 coaches in the last 30 years.

The talk is Paul Roos, but I wouldn't want him. He'd want a shed load to coach again, so his motivation for coaching is $$$'s, not the game.

Remember when St Kilda threw a million bucks at Blight to coach in the early 00's?  Got flicked after 6 rounds on full pay when the board realised he had zero interest...

I am not a Collingwood supporter at all, in fact I cant stand them. As our great Captain Blood once said, I cant even watch black and white TV shows because of them, but I would keep Buckley.

I think it would be better for the club to show some true leadership and step up and say we are going to give him another year. Sacking him is the pussy way out of it.

I think he still has the support of the players and while that is the case give him the opportunity to build the side that he wanted. You cant build a team and win a premiership in 5 minutes.

Look at Richmond, we are well and truly into our 5 year premiership plan that Terry Wallace set out for us in 2005, its going great, he just meant 15 year plan thats all  ;D

I'd say it gives him time to see who he wants to keep or piss off at end of this season.

Malthouse must have had photos of someone and someone elses wife... most over rated coach ever.... but they kept him and kept him.. **** nose why the morons at Carlton fell for his bullShit sales story...

Just cause he wants to empty Ed's bank account doesnt mean he doesnt have the passion or motivation to coach again...


But then again I always had Rodney Eade as a great coach.. hes fallen off teh ladded like nobody else in history.

eh the Bombers are going good eh. got to love fast flowing footy.

but talking coaching, WTF with Simpson and the eagles, how about a plan B or C or D.

For crying out loud everybody knows you are going to kick it along the same boundary line every freaking time that's why large packs of opposition players are waiting there.

Never kick it to the fast running players standing all by themselves in the middle of the ground.

Simple Simpson is a moron.

yea or open to individual interpretation by 20 different blind umpires...
holding the ball... some let it go for 10 seconds or more.. others blow the whistle after 1/1000th of a second and the bloke has 4 x 100kg players on him.. but then again they are happy if you pretend your MAKING AN EFFORT by squeezing the ball as tight as you can and play acting your trying to handball/release it...

That's the one that came to mind....

Also, the bloke on the bottom trying to make the play gets pinged when it gets dragged in under him by the tackler.... ::)
