well i don't know where they get it from, clearly no sense of history, I first started detesting Collingwood when allan edwards left to vic Park in 1979, I was 11 at the time, and nothing since has given me any reason to change my mind :shh...i'd like to think the feeling from the fans reverberates right through the club, but that might just be wishful thinking

Think I can remember we had a bit hatred towards clubs recently when , Campbell, Knights, Bulless (God bless him), Turner, Free, Gayle M and a couple of others played.

Now other clubs fear the likes of Edwards, Hislop, White, Morton.....oh please I just cant go on.

Dunno bout that, Richo don't like Collingwood much judging by his interview with Hafey.  When we get the chance we will shaft them and Carlton for all the indignities we have had to put up with.

Fair enuff owl but what i'm talking about is the stuff u can feel from the grandstand.

Even the recent meaningless wins weren't done with any ill feeling.
They're like robots.

Make Vickery vice captin-at least he likes to hit idiots

what do you expect when you play spuds like Edwards and White. Could you ever imagine him rubbing an opposition's face in the mud after they made a turnover resulting in a goal. uum thats a negative.

Our list has too many softies but the issue is the ones who have balls are not that much chop e.g Jackson and Hislop

I'd say Vickery, King, Cotchin have balls.

I have noticed, of late, that cotch likes to hurt players. It's a trait I don't expect but really enjoy watching. has the intensity to stick tackles & nail bumps!

Martin doesn't seem to have the same emotional investment that king, cotch & Ty do. think it will come though.
Detka! Detka! Detka!

Its bc we're poo, after a while the novelty wears off and u think wgaf?  If/when we become a better side thats around the mark, you'll find some hatred festering pretty quick. Just needs 1 or 2 big games that mean something for a switch to be flicked and then its on

I agree, although given the way Hardwick played I was expecting more grunt. At least our players are getting reported these days. Under Wallace it was like you were given an additional fine if you went into the umpires book.
I reckon being reported shows you are prepared to walk the plank of physicality.
It's that simple Spud

"walk the plank of physicality"

OER Philosophers in full action here.  ;D

Someone should ring Dimma and tell him to tell the players to

Walk the plank of physicality  :lol

i love the way vickery and cotch play...they give it everything and then some....hurting the your opponent (within the rules) is something they all should aim at.Hopefully the above mentioned two will show the way .

Kinda why I aint totally against a Hislop in the team. We need some to sow the seeds.

Get em watching some old footage of the 3 Scums to get a feel for what it means to be a Tiger against that filth.
Dig up all the old stories and dirt of what has gone on between us and these clubs and instill the us against them mentality.
Always said a lot of this game is above the shoulders and a bit of psychological brainwashing wouldn't go astray on this mob, may just be the missing link in the next 3-5 years.
