It looks like AFL house are changing/cracking down on the rules on tackling in response to Ginnivan's high free kicks. Selwood has done it for a decade play on. But you can't have Collingwood gaining an advantage. We can add this to the Clement rule for out positioning your opponent under the...

I'd go OUT: WHE, McInnes (inj) IN: Elliott, Poulter

The 2022 Mid-Season Rookie Draft will be held on Wednesday, 1 June with the same rules as last year (see article below). When do we know if we have any selections in the draft? Do we need a long term injury? Would Murphy's qualify? I've been thinking we need to bolster our inside midfielder...

The 12 month review of the Do Better Report has been completed and indicated that significant and genuine progress has been made. The review acknowledged the impact of Covid and board level changes had affected the pace of implementation. There is an article by Michael Gleeson from The Age for...

If you had a choice between Mark Korda, Jeff Browne or Peter Murphy as Collingwood President, who would you vote for?

From the Clubs website. Looks a really good appointment https://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/news/939478/dr-bridie-o-donnell-appointed-to-board-of-directors

From an Age article. Collingwood are seeking new assistant coaches. We have interest in Leppitsch. Edit: Bucks odds on to stay if Korda remains president. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/back-in-the-game-carlton-collingwood-in-pursuit-of-leppitsch-20210517-p57skv.html

An article on this years rule changes: https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/standing-room-only-the-small-afl-rule-tweak-changing-the-game-20210129-p56xv0.html

It's often true that successful clubs have some healthy help from hidden gems found in the rookie draft. At our peak in 2010 our premiership team consisted of a number of rookies including our captain Nick Maxwell. In an equalised competition finding value in these picks is important. Who...

This is pretty dire. The club has announced a $1.8 million loss this season. I wonder how we plan to turn this one around? I guess bums in stadiums is a start. But attracting members just as important. Difficult after this seasons balls up. Ed is leaving the new President with a big job ahead of...

This is a really good feature article on Scott Pendlebury from The Age. Worth a read. https://www.theage.com.au/sport/afl/sale-tale-scott-pendlebury-s-rising-place-in-the-game-20200725-p55fed.html

I think it's good news that we get see the season out. Sad for Victorian fans they can't watch it live. I'm hopeful a Queensland Hub will mean we see some footy in Cairns! This is an opportunity to grow the game in the regions. https://www.afl.com.au/news/465409

It's been a funny old season for a lot of reasons but one thing has really been interesting me. This season Buckley has been much more willing to try players in different positions. Usually pretty conservative in his coaching approach i've found this a welcome departure. I'm interested in...

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.abc.net.au/article/12389836 So it's looking like: Round 6 vs Brisbane MCG Round 7 vs Geelong Perth Round 8 vs Freo Perth Round 9 vs Eagles Perth I'm a little jealous of our Perth Pies supporters atm.

https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/afl-2020-live-coronavirus-updates/news-story/c8881de04a403df72431dfa7d8ae81fe This is massive news off the back of state decisions to close their borders. There really wasn't any other option. No AFLW premiership this year. Looking to reopen on 31 May, but that...

In our AFLW early years we lost a lot of our best players. This was caused by a combo of the expansion team rules and a dysfunctional footy program which made player retention difficult. If you could pick just one of the ex-Pies to return to the current line-up, who would you pick? And why...

The club has announced the Black & White Show is back and they've just dropped their first episode in time for Christmas. Enjoy! https://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/video/551144/afl-black-white-show-xmas-edition?videoId=551144&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1577145600001

Chiocci will be captain again this season. Bri Davey and Ash Brazill will be our vice captains. Congrats Steph, Bri and Ash! https://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/news/540667/aflw-chiocci-to-lead-pies-for-a-fourth-season

So this is what happened: GOT Darcy Cameron and Pick 62 - GAVE AWAY Pick 56 GOT a future second-round pick and a future fourth-round pick - GAVE AWAY James Aish, Pick 69 and a future third-round pick Summary: Gained ruck/key forward depth with Darcy Cameron joining. Lost a bottom 4 best 22...

If it looked hot out there tonight it was. Check out the tackling stats. There are some phenomenal numbers in there. If you have 5 tackles you're usually up there. What a collective effort. I'll throw some numbers at ya Wills - 13 Adams - 9 Pendlebury - 9 Treloar - 9 Noble - 7 Brown - 5 Maynard...

I just saw news that Alex Woodward has announced his retirement following his 5th ACL injury. A rotten way to end a career that has had no luck with injury. He leaves a big hole in the VFL team. All the best in the future Alex. Here's an article on it ( sorry about the paywall).

I remember looking at this block of games when the fixture came out and thinking it will be a period where we might get a breather after a tough opening draw. We're 5 rounds into this mixed up season and things are looking very different. And very interesting. Our next 6 rounds will see us...

De Goey is a beast whether playing forward or midfield. But in which position does he benefit the team the most? Should De Goey play predominately forward or midfield?

With BigFooty down how did you pass the time?
