Collingwood slumped to its third defeat of the season when going down to GWS by 30 points at the MCG on Saturday night.
The somewhat listless nature of the defeat prompted a discussion on the Magpies, coach Nathan Buckley and what the future holds.
Garry Lyon has described their current situation as painful while asking the question if Buckley still has the desire to endure in the role.
âTheyâre in a world of pain,â he said on
SEN Breakfast.
âNathan Buckley is going to find out whether the desire to be a coach still burns as brightly and as fiercely inside his guts as it did when he started.

“It took me two years to get the body right,” Raines recalled on
SEN Breakfast.
“I could see all the supporters frowning, like ‘this guy has come to Collingwood on big dough and is not performing’.
