    Player Watch Scott Pendlebury

    Flights and game tickets booked!! Will be there at the MCG to hopefully see the legend make history! In the off-chance he decides to do it at the SCG vs Sydney... well, will be there too! GO PIES!!!

    2026 Trade / FA Thread

    Based on past and current form, Beau won't be getting anywhere near a million a year at the Pies unless he becomes a serious mid-fwd player like Humphrey or perhaps closer to what Jordy DeGoey was a few years ago. He also won't be getting a 7-year deal at the Pies. However, if he can earn...

    Certified Legendary Thread The New Carlton Thread: 31st season without a flag for the eternal dickheads

    Feels like the Hollands story has somewhat taken the microscope and heat away from Vossy and the Baggers' continued late fade out trend. If not for this story, everyone would have continued talking about 'when not if' Vossy is to be sacked

    2026 Trade / FA Thread

    This goes to fundamental list management philosophy. I don't think we need Superman to stand next to our Batman. I think we need to find a few really good Robins. Without necessarily pointing at the actual individuals I am about to name, I am talking about the Colby McKerchers, Ryley Sanders...

    Player Watch Gus Anderson

    Based on what I have seen in his first two games, Gus should simply be left in the team for the rest of year. He looks like he will get better with game time and sustained exposure. If that means Sidey plays fewer games, or Ed Allan doesn't come back into the team, or Lipinski needs to be...

    2026 Trade / FA Thread

    mate, sounds awesome in theory. But Nick/Butters combo will need 2-3 other midfielders around them... who will that be in a year or two's time? No Pendles (retired), no Sidey (retired), no Gus (traded, in your scenario), no DeGoey (retired or traded with some currency, ideally). Ned Long, De...

    2026 Trade / FA Thread

    Agree. Picks I can cop because we don't seem to (historically at least) select the good ones anyway. Sell away our emerging young talent (when that's our greatest area of scarcity)... no way

    2026 Trade / FA Thread

    My thought is, instead of selling the farm to land one big fish (who may or may not work out immediately anyway if the struggles of Schultz, Houston etc. are anything to go by), focus on free agents who are either: Not getting consistent runs within their clubs due to list depth (e.g. key...

    2026 Trade / FA Thread

    I would suggest Zak Butters is not worth that kind of price for where we are. We finally unearth some young players who look like they are up to the level and can be part of our team for the next 10 years... and we immediately look to ship them off (plus our current and future FR picks, plus one...

    2026 Trade / FA Thread

    Butters for 2 firsts plus McCreery is a high enough price to pay; with your suggested additions (Anderson and Steene -- clearly both towards the top of our limited young talent stocks) we should be getting Butters plus Georgiades, and maybe old mate Richards back.

    Game Day Round 3 Pies vs GWS 27-Mar @ 7:40pm Docklands

    I have nothing against McStay. My question is, how much leeway do you give someone like him versus letting a young guy who has shown something have a crack? McStay played 18 games last year. Why not give West a sustained run like that?

    Game Day Round 3 Pies vs GWS 27-Mar @ 7:40pm Docklands

    Because in the 1 or 2 games West played last year before he broke his foot, he actually showed a lot more than Buller has. He was also tearing it up in the VFL. Perhaps I was a bit unfair on Buller... by all means, give him a go too. However, I would pick West over McStay given the latter's...
