I do think you'll be quite wrong about this, and I'm confident Steene will be on our list next year, and probably for some time after that! You seem to have a bit of a set against him, and I don't really understand it! I don't think what happened with McMahon and Ruscoe has much to do with with...

Luke Ball played 81 games for Collingwood, so I'm not sure where that one has come from!!

Speaking of Collingwood players with a Queensland/rugby connection (which George Marsh sort of has), the Wikipedia page of Duncan McIvor has this to say!: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Morgan_(rugby_league,_born_1991) This^ links to the page of the Collingwood footballer. A Duncan...

Thanks for that! The news on the changed identity for George Marsh was posted back in July 2022. It was pointed out that Steve Rodgers from the AFL had approved the change, and Collingwood's records would have been amended at that time. It wasn't until a few months later that we got hold of a...

I checked last year's book, and those two were still there, so they've only just removed them from the list. The Kevin Webb issue was raised on here about a year ago, and checking through old emails I can see that I let the editor of the Season Guide know about it. This is what Steve Rodgers...

Doedee is on the 2019 Season Guide list. Kevin Webb is the other one who's there out of those (6) you've named.

And 1 goal! Very promising indeed.

I'm rather sure that name hasn't come up on here as a recent death. The link (to the funeral service) you provided is for someone who died in 2013, and it's not the ex-Melbourne player: If his Wiki page is correct, the Melbourne player was Robert Davis McKenzie. His father was Robert Davis...

Arthur Pound is on the list in the AFL Season Guide. Jeremy Nichols isn't named.

That probably should be "Wil I Am", but then again the thread title (which seems to have been renamed recently) should be Wil Parker, not Will Parker!! Especially as he's about to launch what promises to be a fabulous career, it would be nice if we had him named correctly from the start! Mods.

This would be rather hard to beat (Alan Didak - Collingwood vs West Coast in 2010): https://afltables.com/afl/stats/games/2010/041820100703.html

I presume they'll want to keep that spot open in case Alex Condon is still a chance to join us.

This appears to be another case from the same round (that's not found in the records):

I think it's a very strong chance as well! As always, there'd be a huge amount of 'sooking' on here from the usual types, those who tend to say "it's a free hit"! We've shown in the past we're only interested in taking someone in this draft if we see them as a long-term player; short-term fix is...

They're not really that far short now (compared to e.g. 2018) in terms of list sizes. Back then it was a maximum of 44 Primary List and Cat. A Rookies, while now it's 42. Clubs could have 3 Cat. B Rookies, and now it's 2, but not too many of them are seen playing at senior level anyway. I do...

I just added a bit to that post of mine which I also think is pretty reasonable. It's a fair bit better now than it was in terms of replacing long-term injured or retired players mid-season. We have 43 players on our list - (the minimum) 36 on the Primary List, 6 Category A Rookies, and 1...

No, you have to wait until the mid-season draft before you can bring in a replacement. Melbourne didn't get to bring in someone for Brayshaw a couple of months back. It used to be that you could bring someone off the rookie list onto the main list to replace a long-term injured or retired...

Charlie Dean is just 22, BTW (23 in June).

Cooked?! Nothing is cooked! Not with 18 games to play. After a very slow start to the season we've won our last two and are now a win off a top 8 spot. We play the 3rd placed team this week - beat them and we'll be just a win behind them.

It is getting an upgrade "as we speak"! It had been hoped the job would have been completed by now, but it's not yet ready. I haven't heard an updated prediction as to when it will be 'live'. The "new" site doesn't seem as if it will look a lot different to the old version. It will have player...

You could just watch the last quarter to see what you missed! https://www.afl.com.au/vfl/matches/6326 https://7plus.com.au/sevens-vfl?episode-id=VAFL24-003&autoplay=true

A three-time premiership player does make that a very significant get! Excellent work!

I think the fact that they upgraded him from the Rookie List to the Primary List in the off-season, long before they needed to make such a move, suggests the club rate him highly. So I don't think he's even slightly vulnerable, and expect he'll be given plenty of time to mature. He is still only...

I'm having some "issues" with the spreadsheet I used for that post, and can't provide an updated version of that just now! This was my post in Weird football scores back in 2017:

Here is the 'official' DOD for Harry: https://www.mytributes.com.au/notice/death-notices/paynter-henry-harry-charles/6189085/

Thank you very much indeed for that. I really appreciate you making contact. I will pass that on to the relevant people at Collingwood. If you do find out the exact date of death please let us know.

While it is still correct we have the lowest number of players born in 2002 or later we do have 12 such players, with Harrison and Parker qualifying as well. Duursma has played every game for North so far this year, as has Windsor at Melbourne, and Tholstrup debuted for them on Thursday night...

Well, I did say "If this is to be believed"!! It wouldn't be the first time a player who'd been out injured for a while thought he'd be ready to go before the fitness/medical people felt he was! I'm sure he's just itching to get out there and play.

If this is to be believed, he should be back very soon!: https://www.facebook.com/collingwoodfc/
