List Mgmt. Collingwood Trade Talk 2016 Part 3

[Brad Goodman]

All that is fantastic in theory, but it's easier said than done if you suddenly become a parent before you're ready for it. I know that I wouldn't have coped at times without support from my family, and I can count on one hand the amount of times in the past 3 1/2 years that I've 'palmed off' my kids to their grandparents.

Frankly, what you wrote there was a little offensive to myself and any young parents struggling to adjust.

Gibbs isn't young. If you're not ready to be at parent at 27 you never will be.

 

[WalterBlaknWhte]

So who are we getting next?

Rockliff.

He will tour Princes Park, get offered 5 x $800k, and take our much lower offer.

Brisbane board will claim that Frost is a better player and they have done us on a spit.

I didn't feel ready to be a parent at 30 when my first arrived. Its not the same for everyone, and people are having kids much later these days.

Most people are having kids so much younger than me, 18 and 20. Most due to accident sadly.

 

[Pies_10]

I'm quite happy with our key position stocks.

Bulldogs just won a flag with not that much (Boyd had a blinder in the GF) but give Moore, cox and white time they will be good.

Glad got are because I'm not, Moore will be a star no doubt but White could go backwards again and Cox won't play more than 30 games for Collingwood, his slow and useless with the ball on the ground and those guys get found out in big games.
Down back We may only have Reid who is injury prone, Keefe who's missed 12 months and wasn't really playing that will before that and Marsh who I like but is still raw.
It's the main weakness of the side ATM.

I'm 33 and don't have any so can't say much, however I'm interested to know what you hadn't done by the time you were 30 that meant you weren't ready for kids?

 

[unplugged]

Listen to it on the AFL app.
If your car has bluetooth it can be played through your car speakers.

Yeah trust me, I usually do. But I finish at 5 which is the same time Trade Radio finishes up. Seems that stuff is still getting done after this time, or at least was last night with Mayne.

 

[The Magnificent Seven]

Pretty sure EVERY kid will be younger than you! Boom Boom

 

[northpie]

Most of the experienced players who have left this year have retired. How could we have prevented that?

Fair JMAC, but they could have pre panned better on that, although clokey's rapid drop difficult to anticipate

 

[unplugged]

If Gibbs can't afford a nanny on his wage I'd hate to know what he's spending his money on...

 

[Axl the great]

They both struggled. I'm not exactly certain what was strong about his year aside from one good performance v Selwood and some good signs as a defensive forward? It was a poor season from him let's not sugar coat it by comparing elsewhere.

Don't know mate, 18 touches, 6.5 tackles, and a goal a game is a pretty fair return from a tagger, hardly poor you would think.

 

[WalterBlaknWhte]

Other peoples' nannies?

 

[ClaytonM]

If we were any good at list management we would have extended his contract by a year and would be looking at a late second/third pick now.

If we had of extended his contract for a year he may not be looking to move until end of next year. Worse list management.

Had my fourth at 48 and still not ready, cos you never are. But all the worry and lack of sleep worth it Apex
And I have to admit it's not only the 18 to 20 to who er, how do I say it , receive unanticipated gifts from their actions.

 

[lyfsux]

You talking about footy or dating?

Footy I'm hoping

 

[ClaytonM]

No way West Coast can fit Mitchell and Rockliff in their cap.

Course they can. Pay Mitchell nothing next year and plenty the year after as a coach.

 

[Enforcer]

Just posted on Collingwood website...........

Collingwood was today informed by Jonathon Marsh that for personal reasons he wants to return to his home state of Western Australia.

The 20 year-old defender, who hails from the Margaret River region of WA, explained that he needs to be closer to his family and friends.

Collingwood has been, and will continue to be, in contact with Jonathon and his family and will make certain Jonathon’s health and wellbeing are best served.

Jonathon has played 15 senior matches in his three seasons at the Holden Centre after being drafted in the fifth round of the 2013 national draft.

The club will be making no further comment.

[RupetFan]

No hard feelings towards him, He's been struggling for a while just didn't think he'd leave. Hope all is well.

 

[Bussie]

So do we trade him or is he retiring from footy?
What's he worth, pick or player? The fun and games begin!

 

[Leviathan Pie]

Marsh gone, amazing. Whoever instigated that rumour here initially I tip my hat to you!

 

[GreekLunatic]
