    Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

    Sure im over egging it and we will fall one day. Im responding to the posts suggesting only scorched earth rebuilds work. We have track record for developing steak knives and rookies and MSD specials. Thats a fair call, Moore is a "captain type" like Pendles but Crisp is in the Maxwell/Tony...

    Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

    Two Cipelands including in a finals year and massive in the 2023 finals too. No fan of CD myself but Crisps finals record is elite.

    Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

    Back in my day wings were midfield, seeing as they run between the forward and backline. Show us the clubs that deliberately bottomed out, and then won flags since the draft was well and truly distorted, say from 2011 onwards. Advising the Pies to "rebuild" through the draft seems like bad advice.

    Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

    In the last 15 years the draft was nuked by GWS and Suns getting extraordinary assistance, along with the academy stuff and IIRC salary cap and soft recruiting assistance (eg GAj). In that period we have had a couple of flag windows, as demonstrated by us playing in grand finals. The two...

    How many times you have predicted the premiership winner?

    I think I tipped North in 2000. Essendon seemed mentally fragile, but I rarely choose an official favourite. I got the Pies right three times in the last forty years. I tipped Brisbane or Geelong the last three years in public (ie when asked pre season on here) but secretly I always think its...

    Roast St Kilda in no mans land - Part 2

    Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

    Brisbane were fit and in form, we had a dream second quarter (and some frees to Brisbane not paid, the umps get excited too). However the Elliot free was a definite mistake. At no point did Starcs hands get as high as Elliots. He could not have reached the ball without hitting Elliot first...

    We need to work in "No way/Get fluffed/Fluff off!" there somewhere.

    Roast St Kilda in no mans land - Part 2

    Well why not? Hes copped it on the chin, the club has taken a risk with Lyon again and recruited a bit wildly, but its at least rolling the dice. I dont hold a brief for St Kilda, but they are heavily disadvantaged and other clubs are advantaged (mine more than nearly everyone). If they grind...

    Not-a-cluey Best FOOTBALL RELATED RUMOUR you have heard from someone you trust 2025 Part 3 - Many lies and bullshit in here. Please read OP before posting

    If the shitty photo of a screenshot is from a putative surplus sibling, then it's even better. Best of all testimony is shaky video: Oscar Allen failing his physical at Brisbane (he has the pics of Fagan and Sydney Sweeny so he got the job anyway)

    I mean I want to believe you, but unless you can produce a third brother to corroborate your story its over for you.

    Do Collingwood need to enter a rebuild phase?

    Worst final 4 since...2020? 2017? We collapsed down to third, after establishing a clear break on the comp, obviously just a very lucky bottom 4 side, easy draw with most of the top 8 and all the top 4 twice. Honestly we should have surrendered our spot to someone who earned it.

    Wellingham knew how to party. Bloody idiot and glad no one was killed but it was funny. <Jay Shulz gets busted. < costs his club a sponsor < Sharrod Wellingham "hold my beer" <"...on second thoughts..."

    Can Essendon get him in a room with Hird so they can "Pluribus" him?
