    yeah I'm more excited about this one than Jakob

    Preview 2022 draft prospects

    to be fair, most people thought we hit the jackpot with Stevo especially after his Rising Star win. And Naughton was pegged as a KPD rather than key forward. We already had Moore, Roughie and Howe at the time. Events proved otherwise :(

    Preview 2022 draft prospects

    Very interesting - thanks What this tells me is that if you're wanting a good KPF, you need to get them in the first round rather than speculating in later rounds. If I think of others who should be on the list (Harry McKay, Ben King, Charlie Dixon, Jez Cameron) the really good players were...

    Player Watch Tom Mitchell (Delisted 2025)

    to be fair Nick Maxwell played the same way. We're only salty because Stewart doesn't play for us. It takes a lot of football IQ to read the play and anticipate where the ball is headed. Not only that, but to transition to ball back into attack. I'd def take May over anyone else, but Stewart...

    Traded Ollie Henry - Traded to Geelong as part of a reported 3-way deal (details tbc)

    did I say that? Try again champ And for the record, we made a mistake with Grundy's salary. And Treloar's. And Stephenson. Mistakes happen. We're fixing it. We're moving on.

    they've just swallowed Bowes' $800k

    as opposed to the Cat ferals that hang around Moorabool St bus stop?

    Oppo Camp Oliver Henry (Traded to Geelong 2022)

    yeah but it costs us a list spot. I've come to the reluctant conclusion that we just let him walk to the draft. Yes it doesn't get us anything but the value of 25 is negligible. And Geelong will then have to use it.

    Traded Ollie Henry - Traded to Geelong as part of a reported 3-way deal (details tbc)

    Yes we need better extractors. And another KPD as well as a KPF. Hence why we're taking the savings from Grundy's contract to bring in recruits (whether those recruits are the right ones is another story but that's for a future thread) This is the essence of list management. You identify...

    Traded Ollie Henry - Traded to Geelong as part of a reported 3-way deal (details tbc)

    Lol - you realise that this is part of life for every AFL player? What about those who are delisted? Players are conditioned to accept that this is a national competition and that living away from home is a genuine aspect of AFL life. And Collingwood isn't the first club to mismanage their cap

    technically the contract runs out at the end of this month (under the provisions of the CBA). Until then or an agreed trade, Collingwood has first rights to him

    Traded Ollie Henry - Traded to Geelong as part of a reported 3-way deal (details tbc)

    as the 2019 PF painfully showed, hitouts alone can be irrelevant. You can argue all you want about hitout comparisons (yes Grundy is better) but the only stat that counts is 13-3. That's our win loss record without Grundy. And as Rhys Stanley has shown, even a less than mediocre ruck doesn't...

    List Mgmt. COLLINGWOOD Trade and F/A Discussion 2022-->

    I could live with this. If this happens pick 27 will forever be associated with salary dumps (along with 7)

    I also find it amusing that Catters are still triggered over the Krueger trade.
