Here's an idea Eddie, send the boys on a pre-season to Baghdad, or some other war-torn area of the world.stinger wrote:"and that we have a lot to contribute internationally."
Bigger than West Coast? Bigger than Adelaide?? I don't think so.......the arrogance just kills me!stinger wrote:"We think it's not only a goodwill gesture," said McGuire, "but we are keen to reinforce once again that we are not only the biggest team in Melbourne, but also nationally, and that we have a lot to contribute internationally."

When Eddie mentions that Collingwood are the biggest team 'nationally', im pretty sure that limits it only to Australia.riccardo wrote:If Collingwood were half as popular as Eddie thinks they are, they be as recognisable as Man U, Barca, or any other soccer giant.
People here know Man U, but the average Brit probably only thinks Collingwood captains thier cricket side.
Eddie is tedious in his promotion of collingwood and he is quick to see an opportunity in recruiting some more Irish 'whingers' to add to the likes of Matthew Clarke. This is Eddie continuing to build on collingwood's financial and connections advantage over the other melbourne clubs in particular. As much as i have disliked the 'whingers' from geewrong over the years i firmly believe that their processes and approach to season 2007 deserve closer analysis by those that aim to surpass. I have to drop my use of the term 'geewrong' and simply adopt 'geelong' again until Saint Kilda wins that premiership. I remember years ago that Stan Alves publicly praised North at a Saint Kilda AGM as being a well run club. Stan got us to a grand final not long after He had the right approach. It's better not to complain about how many times Eddie mentions the hallowed words "The Collingwood Football Club" but to outdo the Eddies of this world. I want some Irish 'Whingers' like Matthew Clarke or Jim Stynes or T.Keneally at Saint Kilda and not all at just Collingwood or Carlton.stinger wrote:"We think it's not only a goodwill gesture," said McGuire, "but we are keen to reinforce once again that we are not only the biggest team in Melbourne, but also nationally, and that we have a lot to contribute internationally."
