i hate eddie mchins more than most.
but credit where credit is due
he took collingwood who where in a very similar position to what we find ourselves in at the moment and what did he do.
he didnt wait, he was on the front foot the minute he walked in the club and stood up for the filth every single time his club was mentioned and has built the collingwood football club into a powerhouse once again depsite their lack of on-field success.
is our president and our board as pro-active as the filths?
not even remotely.
they only way to get up from the bottom is to drag yourself up, no one else is going to do it.
I get the impression that some of you think, that if we start to play finals we are going to have some sort of power over the AFL.
i will give you the hot tip now, unless we have a board that is prepared to stick up for the club, winning the flag 3 years in a row isnt going to mean jack (no pun intended

)
Sheedy is always on the front foot defending his club and players. After games he attacks the oposition for attacking his players even though his players attacked 1st (if ya know what I mean).
He hands out veiled critisism of everything to do with the AFL and gets away scot free, so does Eddie for that matter. Do we really think that tinkerbell Hird acted alone last year re Mclaren? Of course not, yet they both basically walked away laughing.....turds.
