The expectation is it [change] is going to be obvious, but the way Collingwood has played its football in recent times has been fairly successful. You don't want to throw the baby out with the bathwater
Yeah, most definitely. He can't wait for Nathan Buckley to take over either, so it's a good move by the club.
Competitive advantages that we enjoyed through 2010 and perhaps the first half of 2011, we didn't enjoy through the last six, seven games in 2011
Obviously, we weren't in great shape physically, we had some injuries in the back half of the season that affected us
He [Clarke] has been excellent. He really applied himself in his time off
I think a player with that sort of pride is going to carry a little bit of a niggle off the back of his season. He played a lot of games consecutively before last year and was very robust physically
I think it's important to go there [a review]
I think there were also some things that happened in a game-style perspective, the competitive advantages that we enjoyed through 2010 and perhaps the first half of 2011 that we didn't enjoy through the last six or seven games of 2011. There are a few adjustments to be made.

I think the expectation is that it's going to be obvious but I think the way we play, the way Collingwood has played its football in recent times, has been fairly successful
