The club told the journo's Bobby is not up for trade & he's staying.
Bobby is integral to how we play. We missed him badly the second half of this season.
An in form Bobby Hill changes our dynamic considerably and I have no doubt he’s in our top half dozen required players.

Why are we rumoured to be chasing a flog defender who has declined dramatically and will be 34yo come next season?

We dodged a bullet with Silvagni already, don’t need this muppet at the club.

If Hill's personal issues are indeed settled and his access to his family is not an issue and he is staying in Victoria, then it's a no brainer for Collingwood. His unavailability really did affect the Pies 2025 campaign as he is a vital clog to the system.
I didn’t know he was Dutch!

I’m ok with us chasing May only on the proviso that he gets a massive hazing/ritual beating on his first day and then we never speak of it again.
 
I know a lot of people are wary of May and his attitude but even though I’m not a fan of him as a character I think Fly is the perfect person to iron out any issues he could have.
 
We're inching closer to suggesting packaging up Sullivan, HDM and our 2nd round pick for Curnow.

Hands off Sullivan! Would Ed Allen do instead? Or are West Coast still after him?

I might be a year behind on that.
 
Corn and Edmund spent time discussing Hill’s Insta reaction this morning and elaborated on the Agenda Setters discussion. Without giving away too much Edmund conceded that the “story” came from someone who wasn’t necessarily authorised to talk within Collingwood via opposition clubs.

In other words a likely off the record “sure if you give us a top 5 pick” chat between Kelly and other CEO’s has transcended into click bait.

Can hear the reverse beeps from Edmond from here

So basically Sam Edmund didn't do his due diligence and find out what was said, where it was said, what context it was said in and who actually farking said it, before opening his mouth and blurting it out last night. These guys are all following the Korn clickbait lead....
Sammy you're better than that buddy....

We need a third group, AFL, VFL and Punishment. No salary cap there, no pay, no contract, they are drafted to Collingwood and flown out to Nauru to shovel guano for the rest of their days.

First draft we take May, Zorko, maybe Tom Lynch. Off they go, extraordinary rendition draft.
 
I've got no doubt Hill is tradeable. Made a prelim without him and if they can turn him into a first rounder they have to do it.
Brother can you imagine how disastrous our forward line looks in 2026 if we happen to get rid of Elliott, Mihocek and Hill in one fell swoop? That's all of our leading goal kickers since 2019 (plus 2015 and 2017).

"Westy" isn't going to be kicking 100 goals next year to replace them, sorry to tell you.

I come at it slightly differently. To borrow PS’ phrasing I think he took some poetic license with what he was told by opposition clubs in order to get some information out there (as a favour to an opposition club and to engagement farm) and got carried away on the Agenda Setters. He was straddling the line of going with something that had no meat on the bone and protecting his source at Collingwood who flat out denied it so made it out to look like it might have come from the Hill camp. Clubs are planting it to get access to Hill by driving a wedge between him and the club.

No. We could be on the cusp of losing Mihocek and Elliott so it’s a non starter unless that first rounder is a very good one that we can use elsewhere on say Petracca or King (just spitballing). The thing is no one is giving that so this is their play to maybe flip him to gettable at a better price.

FWIW this has GC written all over it.

Is he? Is he really? He and Ralphy are at the bottom of the very bottom of the barrel
