Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

I didn't want to rule out Maxine's on Sydney Road.

What is Maxine's tipping point?

What is Maxine's tipping point?

The age profile of some of the key performers is concerning.
They wouldn't want to lose them all at the same time.
Probably time to hit the draft.

Maxine's have a new performer who some have described as the GOAT.

Supposedly brings out a special double act from time to time (September popular) where team up with the old veterans that has won a few awards.

Exciting times ahead for the Maxine punters

Nah your triggered HARD

Trying to deal with finally looking down tha barrel of long term sh!tness is daunting
Pies have proven time and time again they dont stay down for long and wont spend 4-6 years on the bottom

Agreed, the formerly mighty Eagles are now as soft as jelly, threw the toys out of the cot during covid and never recovered

They could go the same way as University and Fitzroy if they don't harden up

As expected neutrals are still going with list is the be all and end all. Zero or 100, nothing in between.

'The quality won't be replaced', no it won't, but you're all forgetting is that this club is a system based club that is less 'personnel' reliant than other clubs.

We've brought in supposed spuds since our disastrous fire sale of covid years, for example, Brought in Cameron, lost Grundy.

So after 2021, the cliff was meant to swallow the club, can the neutrals please explain what happened? How did we flag after falling off that cliff?

A system based game plan and list but 25% of the tream will not be there in 12 months. And it isn't the bottom 25%.

In 2021 those players who are about to retire end of 2026 were 5 years younger. And still had good football left in them.

That's the difference.

Pies have stayed up longer than most can.

No denying that. Always in the hunt for free agents or trades.

Eagles refresh via the draft and seem to hit gold every 11 to 12 years. No shame in that.

Prior to the three peat Richmond spent how long in the wilderness? A long...loooong time.

And now Tigers are rebuilding again with an unproven coach and the previous premiership building President plus premiership coach, both top operators No longer there.

Not sure where this confidence in rebuilding comes from.

25% of 23 (the team) is (5.75) between 5-6 players. So which 5 to 6 players will be gone by 2027?
Here is my best 23 with oldies at the top;

Pendlebury (1 year contract)
Sidebottom (1 year)
Howe (1 year)
Elliott (2 year contract)
Membrey (1 year)
Crisp (1 year)
DeGoey (2 years)
Cameron (4 years)
Moore (3 years)
Maynard (4 years)
Houston (5 years)
Frampton (1 year)
J Daicos (4 years)
N Daicos (5 years)
Long (2 years)
Perryman (5 years)
McStay (2 years)
Hill (5 years)
Schultz (2 years)
McCreery (2 years)
Buller (2 years)
Lipinski (2 years)
Quaynor (3 years)

Short of key position players and no injury cover.
