Talking Footy

I think Buckley is gone. Kicking skills are ordinary and he has had plenty of time. Win or lose tonight it has been ordinary.

I'd sack 'em all. The skill level of the game is hopeless!! Ball retention is non existent. Positional play is disastrous. Someone has gotta teach these blokes respect for possession. So much to fix up.....lolololololololol.

I think you have a point re the current game. To muck trying with slick handballs and fast movement. Collingwood almost have it and you can see what they are trying to do but just miss out on the execution. There is no room for error in that type of play and it kills Collingwood. Given the pies have difficulty kicking the ball to a player I would suggest they try another type of play.

Rules in the AFL dont allow for skill-less ball retention, the ball must be disposed of or penalties apply. Being tackled yet retaining possession is why RL is so boring

Has to be Buckley doesn't it?

how many chances does the Kangas coach Brad Scott get??

Kangas only having a bad year this year.

Last couple of years they been a decent side.

Bucks is prob the first coach to go, club legend, so it might be hard though. But the Pies have been horrible for years now

way more loyalty in coaching in the AFL compared to the NRL

Poor Bucks..
Pies are so inconsistent

Timing about usual Fred.

Just thought either Buckley or Scott would have gone much earlier . Wade was brought in to sort out the culture as it was a basket case ... the hunt factor. That hopefully was addressed but I would have not played Ablett this year as think the team needs to move pass him.

Ross Lyon...but contracted to 2020
