At the end of the day I hope he gets the best medical advice he can on the concussions and the potential outcome if he suffers any more. If the medical advice is that he can keep playing then so be it, if they tell him to step away from playing football for the sake of his health then I hope he...
When I first read this I thought, nah it's definitely Moore, but the more I think about it the more I think your right. Murphy's ability to both lock down his direct opponent AND still know when to peel off and impact the contest somewhere else is elite, and this is why players like Moore can...
My favourite footy moment as a kid was during a State of Origin game (WA vs Vic) when John Worsfold and Gary Ablett Sr, to put it politely, collided on the wing. Then both got up and trotted off.
Apologies for getting off topic.
Lauchie Schultz would be an amazing pick up for us. The combination of him, Elliott, Hill and Mccreery will give us insane forward line pressure and serious scoring power.
He's worth more than pick 19, given his talent level, age, he's still under contract, and the fact Collingwood is trying to...
Personally I love the blokes honesty, even if it's at the expense of his liver. If we had more players in the league willing to be honest like that, it would make for a really unpredictable and enjoyable season off the field, and some added tension on it.
I'm already looking forward to next...
The amount of times Carlton have a chain of handballs while moving towards their forward 50 and every player is flat footed, there's very little run from them. The extra game must be taking its toll.
Wow I thought the Melbourne vs Brisbane game was pretty dull contest, but Gold Coast and GWS 1st quarter was a snooze fest. Collingwood trains harder than that quarter was played. Hopefully they ramp it up.
How are Brisbane 3rd on the ladder, very, very disorganised defensively and seem to find ways to lose games. Some of the missed marks and mistakes they've made in the final quarter are amateurish.
In 2019, which is the only year he's played a full season, he finished top 5 (Touk Miller finished sixth) and most people thought he was going to be the next elite midfielder for Gold Coast, then for whatever reason he fell out of favour with Dew and has been languishing in the 2's since.
Very...
So your value of Henry is slightly higher than mine then, and Grundy's is slightly lower than mine. It an interesting and fun discussion.
Funnily enough I think Grundy will blossom at the Dees because they play more of a stoppage game which he thrives at given his follow up work, which mean a...
You get the lube out if you want, if that's what your into.
But in regards to Henry I think we're over valuing him, which as I've said before is my opinion. If he can't mark the ball he's very average a ground level and his defensive pressure is poor. The fact is I think AJ is pretty much the...
I guess that's one area we also disagree, I don't this Henry is worth a first and I don't believe Collingwood will get a first round pick for him. Most likely an early second.
Can't really make the argument about Parfitt not being best 22 when he's competing for his spot against Selwood and...
Parfitt would be leaving a team that wants to keep him and on current form is on the rise, Grundy on the other hand is leaving a team that wants him gone (more specifically his contract gone) and on current form is on the decline.
Plus I value inside mids with Parfitts speed and endurance over...
There's been lots a players that weren't best 22 and after moving clubs and been given more opportunity have flourished and become elite talents. Parfitt has everything Collingwood would be looking for in a player, speed, runs both ways, good mark, loves to tackle, inside ball winner combined...
If we honestly could convince Parfitt to come to the Pies that'd be something I'd be happy to trade Henry and our first round pick for. Fantastic player. Honestly don't see it happening, but would be crazy happy if it did.
On another note while looking this stuff up I just realised Collingwood traded pick 11 Daisy Thomas comp pick) to West Coast in 2013, which they then used on Dom Sheed. Now THAT hurts 😫
