Slamming shut our premiership window now, with your strategy of getting rid (or letting them leave as you suggest) of Grundy, Moore and JDG is absurd.
You do get that right?
Yea we seem to do it every year pisses me off no end we should just walk in with our pants off lolOh we ****ed ourselves, that's why we're at the table

So wait, your solution to the salary cap conundrum is to pay a bloke to not play for us...
Are you sure you don’t work for the club?
I doubt Collingwood would push their luck if we offered to take him for free.
Are you sure it's hate or is it an agenda?OK so what part of - he is continually gets blocked/arms chopped in full view of the umpire don't you get??
Look forget it mate, you obviously have a hate on for him so I'm moving on.
He's no Jasper Pittard, kenty.Just my opinion, I think his ceiling is low. As I said, I want to be proven wrong
I didn’t rate him before that game eitherIt's very depressing that Appleby has become a whipping boy on here after the GWS game. Him underperforming on a tall forward is representative of a failure by the coaches in selecting him over Scharenberg based on the opposition - not representative of his lack of footy ability. He performed well in his 9 games in 2018 when he actually played on forwards more his size.
Oh I'm sure they'll be bending us over with all the cap crisis hype in the media, don't know why anyone would want the club to be more transparent, that's never in our best interestI'd be expecting pick 27 for Shaz with a 3rd round pick going back to North. Maybe that's just me.
This is your assumption, not mine.
My take is Collingwood have to eject players for cap purposes and it's predominately a "player welfare perception" thing for them.
I personally don't care one way or the other if North land him, but I would be gobsmacked if it was for a 2nd round pick or anything over a 1 year extension.
.......not since Scott Thompson retired.
I figured we had Vickers-Willis in mind for that role, but maybe they have other plans for him.
IMO, 3rd round at the very best.
Like I stated, it's a bigger issue for Collingwood if clubs don't take some of their players. They're in no position to play hard ball.
Actually, it is mate. I get that you have an emotional attachment to the bloke and all that, but if you can't eject blokes like Scharenberg now, then it's far more likely that it will cost the pies something more valuable later on.
In all honesty, I couldn’t see the club mismanaging our cap so badly as to have to jettison players as much as the media and bf commentators are implying. Even with a host of our players coming out of contract next year.You know that no contracts are signed off by the AFL unless they fall within a clubs TPP right? It’s likely that Collingwood are looking to clear some cap space, but it’s not a friggin fire sale.
Sidebottom is on less bucks than he could have got from others at his last contract negotiations.Agree with a previous poster were not doing a fire sale, personally would not get rid off either shaz or aish. As harsh as it sounds we should trade Sidebottom who is on big bucks.
If we have too i would not get rid off shaz or aish for anything less then a 2nd rounder.
Pound for pound, do you really think that we can’t afford our current list yet Richmond and West Coast can afford to pay theirs with no salary cap stress.Actually, it is mate.

I’m not getting the chicken little world is ending vibe. If that was the case we’d never have picked up Beams. We’re either getting our finances in order for the long term (ie Grundy/Stephenson/Moore/De Goey/Maynard/Crisp et al) and making diligent decisions accordingly and/or we’re looking at a big fish for next year.
