Recommitted Bobby Hill [OOC 2023] - stayed at the Pies in 2025

[Robroy22]

Collingwood fans...hes worth pick around 30 at best. Even at his best hes an ok player but no superstar hes made out to be

Try some squid mate, that other bait stinks.

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Sort of wonder what the pick is tbh.

We traded Brad Hill to Fremantle for pick 23. That was for family reasons too. Brad was 23 years at the time. No Norm Smith, but was evident what player he was about to become.

Well I wouldn’t wonder too hard because It very likely won’t be any pick.

He’s almost certain to stay at pies

He's an X factor player. Inconsistent yes, but when he's on he can win a game off his boot. Won us the Grand Final ffs. I compare him to Rankin.. when Rankin is out Adelaide stink. When Hill has been out, Collingwood have been awful.

 

[HBFlanker]

I don't think Collingwood take the risk of keeping him around and have him potentially lose his way next year, or even in the pre season.

I think it will come out in the next week or so that he will be moving back to WA, and to Collingwoods credit, they will help get it done.

 

[longdonkey]

Why would he be cheap?
Norm Smith, just hitting peak age.

You got him for a future second round pick from GWS and he's worth less now, not more.

 

[GoPies1]

There are unconfirmed reports that Hill was partying hard.

Family situation isn’t great either and there is a massive risk he falls off the wagon.

That’s just the most ludicrous comment
I didn’t want to respond however it was so insanely ridiculous I couldn’t help myself.
Outstanding

 

[flagpieORdie]

I don’t know why people are still discussing. He has made it very clear he isn’t going anywhere.

Rankine plays high amounts of midfield time. Does Hill?

Which on a human level is bewildering to me, but everyone is different I guess.

I personally couldn't be away from my young children, but sounds like there's a fair few that are okay with that in here (see that Geelong guy who said he stays at Collingwood or retires - presenting those as the two only genuine options lol).

Freo have had multiple chances to have a crack at him and have said no every time, so doubt they will this time either regardless of what happens.

Hill's won a Norm kicking 4 in a GF....he's taken marks of the year and been a club's leading goalkicker.

What's Rankin done again??? yet???

Bobby's got him covered quite easily.

 

[The Nostradamus]

What was the story with bobby? Cheated on his wife and the wife left him is what I heard

It's unnecessary and inappropriate to rehash it on this board.

 

[Lore]

Bobby has a couple of years on his contract at Collingwood. Fair to say he's staying now?

 

[Orange crush]

Damaged goods.

Tbf, that hasn’t stopped you guys with stengle or smith

If Pies could extract value they would have pushed him.

They couldn't.

Best outcome is to get him back in a good headspace and back to his best form.

Re-assess in 12 months.

He sounds like he is keen to stay a Pie and have a crack.

Til 2030.

Well Left the Club again for Personal Reasons

Freo are Eagles could get him for next to nothing at Season End

You will need to offer up a fair bit for us to take.

Negative trade value at the moment with 4 years left on his contract

If he is actually walked out then Collingwood shouldn't pay a cent from that day and in reality should be able to sue to recover some money paid.

Has it actually been confirmed he has left and won't be back?

 

[ibd77]

Professional sports isn't for everyone. If he can't handle it, then move on back to the amateur leagues.

Well, this is exactly what has happened.

The pies would be kicking themselves now. They have tried to do the right thing by him and its blown up in their face.

They have simply just backed the wrong horse.

How exactly did they do the right thing by him, wanting overs in a trade instead of letting him go basically for free?

He never asked for a trade. if he did its a different story.

They have looked after him over the last 8 months unbelievably.
