List Mgmt. 2025 Trade/FA Thread (Cont’d)

[jmac70]

If Pies dont recruit a star midfielder this season, its another wasted Naicos year.

Again, moving Perryman, McCreery there is an option, but it will change the structure a lot and both need time to get accustomed in the centre game.

Premiership incoming.

It was pretty easy to see it was the hard stuff. My sister has neighbours who have been on that, bloody hard to get off of it.

See Ben Cousins, Chick,Mainwaring, and many of that WC team back then.

 

[jmac70]

He isn't obligated to listen to any teams who want to recruit him, they are trying to sell to him.

He’s been kicked out of Melbourne. Someone with half a brain would listen to all offers respectfully.

Regardless, the guy is a tool and has been for some time.

Coke is a hard drug.

Not the crap you get in Australia nowadays.

Premiership incoming.

That's what you said a month ago. "Pies best is good enough".

Eh.

From anyone else who's realistic and watches the game without a biased eye can see, the Pies key players were indeed old and ultimately costed the Pies.

Well next year they are another year older and increased risk of more niggling injuries.

I wouldn’t know about that. It’s not something I’ve ever tried.

Coke is a hard drug.

Not as hard as meth. But still hard

 

[danielnajdek]

Is that Peter Garrett.

A lot of incorrect posters in here,

Collingwood set for Oliver meeting

“We should know that the next day or two.”

www.sen.com.au

Leppitsch is literally quoted as saying he was flying up to meet Oliver and that the Midfield was a big position of need which they found out the hard way against Brisbane.

Coke is a hard drug.

It is, but there is harder.
Heroin into that mix.

Maybe it is meth after all.

Or some bs like protonitazene

That was yesterday
They are now saying he didn't up there after all, but instead just called him today

Collingwood list boss Justin Leppitsch is understood to have had a phone conversation with Oliver on Wednesday as the Pies continued to assess the Demons star as a trade option.

We got close, no reason we can’t improve further.

The reason is that our direct competition are all adding players

Chrystal meth.... waaaaaaaay harder

Our mixed messaging has been weird

That happens every year. Look, if people want to throw in the towel then go for it.

I won’t be because I believe in Fly and the players. Oh, and we have Nick.

His manager was planning on organising a meeting but decided a phone call would suffice? Felt like we were wasting our time.

It's a bit boring when you try and turn these discussions into contests about who is the better Collingwood supporter.

 

[BillyElliott]

It turns out, Leppa didn't fly to Sydney after all. He called Oliver up.

Glad to hear he didn't waste his time.

I haven’t done that.
I’ve expressed my opinion. Go back and read page after page of people gushing over Oliver.

It’s embarrassing.

 

[YouBeauty]

Midfield is looking bleak.
Josh gives us something but would need to put on 20kg to do it full time.

You're obviously implying it, don't be obtuse. "If people want to throw in the towel" and "I won't because I believe in Fly and the players" is obviously implying this.

He is still contracted and paid by Melbourne for the next 4 years. If you want him, you have to convince him to request a trade. You’re making it sound like he’s out of a job, income and livelihood which is incorrect.
