Swan, who was a teammate of Buckley’s from 2003-7, and then was coached by him from 2012-16, lauded the 2003 Brownlow Medal winner on Twitter.

“He will move on, he will get another challenge and don’t worry, he will attack it like he has always attacked everything. Current Pies captain Scott Pendlebury also spoke about Buckley at the Holden Centre on Wednesday morning. “The first we heard of it was literally as a football department we came in and they spoke about the decision.”

AnthColangelo Best fit for Collingwood would be Brad Scott followed by Clarkson. If they get Brad Scott i think he will get them to play in finals very consistantly and win a GF

AnthColangelo Ummmm, who cares..

AnthColangelo What a load a crap he deserved a flag no more than anyone else, there are so many champions that never had a flag, nothing makes him any different.
