extended squad, so 26 (including medical sub)

some will be cut from final selection but it means they don't have much choice.

Bit shattered to lose Tegan Cunningham (retired), one of our most reliable players imo. Hopefully Tayla Harris can get motivated and back to her best as a replacement marking target.

Meg Downie is definitely a loss too. Excited to get Purcell in though!

I never rated Cunningham too highly, but Downey was one of my favourite early players as that rangy athletic interceptor. She seemed to lose her spot a bit once they brought Birch in, although I don't know how much of that may have been fitness related.

It's gonna be cool to see Harris in a demons jumper again.

I'm hoping this is the break that Robert Harvey needs to get his Senior Coaching career up and running.

Coz he was always a great player, and back in the day he played for the same cricket club as my Dad.

Seems they offered to put Adam Goodes in for the AFL Hall of Fame and he knocked them back. I can't blame him. Apparently he can't even take his cousins kids to games because he hates going there now. Great job Australia.

Nathan Buckley, the player who walked out on Brisbane the day he was drafted to join Collingwood before losing to them in back to back grand finals.

Nathan Buckley, the guy who took over Mick Malthouse's premiership side and led it nowhere.

That’s unfair he also committed to going to North and would have played in 2 premierships with them too

When the only goal is to win a flag, almost winning one isn't an achievement it's still a failure.

I already thought they were a decent chance of winning. If they don’t get up for Buckley then they’re a bunch of gutless no-hopers

I killed a Tuskarr
Mum on Monday, who was once a die-hard Collingwood supporter: I loving hate this cockhead Buckly, he's a job-stealing gently caress, who should either be sacked or save the club and quit, he's just a born loser. gently caress Eddie too, he's still loving Eddie Everywhere. They've loving destroyed us, the racist fucks. (My Mum is 60, white as hell, and while she claims she is not a racist, I have no doubt she has made fun of other people of different races, and just played it off as "just jokes").

Today: Geez, that's gonna be a bit hard for him, probably will be on Sunday Footy Show though so he'll be ok, good for him.
Tonight: Will no doubt watch Millionaire Hotseat again, while playfully talking to Eddie, saying A/B/C/D, loving it.

I feel the board challenge is basically going to be run on a Weimar Republic style “how dare the coward board members betray our club, we have nothing to be ashamed of” campaign of bullshit that will ensure the club throws out the do better report and continues to be the biggest cesspit of racism in Australian professional sport for decades to come.

How long was Buckley contracted for? Does he get the rest of his contract paid out by Collingwood?

And re: the comment immediately above me: If the "It's a proud day" comment didn't show you that Collingwood was going to ignore everything in the Be Better report, then nothing will.

It's fitting, and also deeply hosed, that Collingwood has captured up the majority of attention in the same week Adam Goodes declined being inducted into the Hall of Fame.

we play a team here that uses that jumper design, at least it contrasts with everything.

this Saints-Crows match reminds me of teams struggling in heat and humidity at the Asian tournament too, yuck. bad footy.

massive bump on Clark leads to a broken jaw, that has to be loving painful.

Crows didn't score until the single digits of the second quarter, it was truly impressive.

Assuming the saints do actually manage to gently caress this up, is it more or less embarrassing than that North vs Essendon game?
