[BillyElliott]

Who cares about JUH.

Billy's re-signed

 

[TakingThePies]

Steven Mays going to happen isn't it..

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

they would need to put strict clauses in the contract. And maybe their strong indigineous program will help him stay stable.
Hopefuly for his sake it works out.

If l was the Suns l would rookie him, on a rookie salary, and get him to play and train with the VFL squad. Gauge his behaviour and commitment to his footy over 2 to 3 months and if he's turning a corner, like training every session and playing every game, then maybe reintroduce him to the senior squad.
Its a fine line to taking him in and it works out or this guy destroying the culture and mood of your club...

Steven Mays going to happen isn't it..

I think it is...oh boy...Going to have to suck it up and support the big fella....

 

[Jafo]

Bobby’s not going anywhere either

 

[Axl the great]

Never in doubt with Jamie, wasn’t worried for a second.
Checkers is a hard one, he’s taking the 3 years for mine which is borderline negligent for a player with his body and age.

 

[MooreDaicos]

I've also heard we are interested in JUH, I thought it was just dribble at the time. Doing our due diligence or something to that effect is probably more like it but who knows for sure.

Always loved him.

Has Bobby been a consistent social media presence previously?

I’m not sure why but the recent comments strikes me almost as though he’s trying to convince the club he is locked in and ready to go again.

Or take it on face value. He's sick of these journo's & their constant BS, like we all are.

Ugle-Hagan met with Suns officials on Wednesday, with the Suns looming as his best chance to be on an AFL list in 2026 after positive discussions.

Yeah the news is he is signing with the suns

I'm not sure he should be commenting to the media like he has been, even if he doesn't like whats being said. Its best to ignore, or unfollow those accounts.

a base with match payments and incentives. if he messes up then cut him. he's cost nothing so its not a loss.

 

[manicpie]

Steven Mays going to happen isn't it..

Yep

 

[Magpiemack]

Jamie owed us nothing and turned his back on more money at other clubs. He is class act.

 

[Pistol Night]

Yep

Wasn't Steve's fault that Campbell Brown and Jake Melksham were being flogs so he headbutted their fists. Hes a great man is our Maysy

 

[Pistol Night]

Jamie owed us nothing and turned his back on more money at other clubs. He is class act.

You never really felt like he'd leave. His legacy with us is now secure. Im tipping a few more legendary moments from the reaper yet

 

[sr36]

Gee that's a steep price.

No it's not. He was on the edge of the AA team this year. $500,000 is the average wage and that includes kids who will play less than 1 game of AFL.

Because some veterans who were paid a heap throughout their career are willing to play for the club for a heap less than what they're worth, doesn't mean all veterans should.

I wonder if he still thinks that the Demons are so much better than us. Lol

 

[sr36]

Is he coming. I've only just caught up with today's events. Go Jamie. And go Maysy if he's on his way.

Father-son and Academy prospects set to shape Collingwood draft plans
Collingwood’s draft plans are set to be shaped by Next Generation Academy and Father-Son picks in 2025 according to Trade Radio’s Cal Twomey.
The Magpies have access to three players who will be on draft boards, Oakleigh Chargers duo Zac McCarthy and small forward Jai Saxena as Academy options and Western Jets midfielder Tom McGuane, the son of Magpies great Mick McGuane.

While McGuane was the big name heading into this season, Twomey expects McCarthy to be Collingwood’s priority when it comes to the trio with the forward/ruck rated as the 27th best prospect in his August edition of his Phantom Form Guide on AFL.com.au.

Beveridge: “Will Collingwood be looking at picking up all three of Zac McCarthy, Tom McGuane and Jai Saxena in this year's draft? They’re all eligible to go to the Pies as Academy or father-son.
Twomey: “Yeah, I think McCarthy will be the priority.
“McGuane, I think, can probably be a later or rookie pick, and Saxena again is probably more of a rookie opportunity.”
Collingwood currently hold picks 35, 53, 65 and 71 in the 2025 Draft, prior to this year’s trade period.

Given they worded it as at least $650k, you’d assume that’s the base.

Yeah, I re-read that after I posted. Hopefully they are just guessing given that GC offer was three years above 500k and we needed to put up something close over two years.

 

[sideswipe]

They keep using Nick as an example as he is the best player in the game and is only 22. It's a compliment.

We are kissed on the piebeast to have him.

I thought PB is a house cat

No it's not. He was on the edge of the AA team this year. $500,000 is the average wage and that includes kids who will play less than 1 game of AFL.

Because some veterans who were paid a heap throughout their career are willing to play for the club for a heap less than what they're worth, doesn't mean all veterans should.

I’d be interested to learn the median wage. Average is a pretty useless number when there are massive outliers on the upside

 

[Pistol Night]

Is he coming. I've only just caught up with today's events. Go Jamie. And go Maysy if he's on his way.

No idea. Ability wise its a no brainer for a crack next year but who knows if the playing group will ok it
