Seems like a pretty condescending post from you mate. He has a every right to have an opinion.
To be condescending is to be "acting in a way that betrays a feeling of patronizing superiority" (apparently). I don't believe I did that; I don't object to his, or anyone, having an opinion, it's the terminology I find amusing. No one who plays league football is a "spud"; they may have faults, you may think they're not up to the level, but they simply won't be a spud.

Collingwood also cleared out Ben Richmond and Michael Hartley from their rookie list, who are both athletic KPD... Surely we'd at least look at them.

Jordan Russell seems like a strange decision, seeing as they only just picked him up.

Hartley is so injury prone it ain't funny, massive pass. Richmond i know nothing about except for him changing from Basketball to AFL not long ago, pass should avoid delisted rejects like these IMO. Russell is just a spud

the way they have treated them is pretty cut throat. maybe a bit of a rift between a section of the playing group and coach
All Didak, Jolly and Krakouer wanted to play on surely will at another side. Didak is only 31 and Krakouer the same i think (Not with us of course) Port Adelaide or Adelaide could do with Didak or Krakouer for a year or two

apparently 5 more delisting to come from the pies. 3 rookie upgrades, so they're looking at 6 vacant spots

EDIT: misread a tweet. more delistings to come but not 5

Mid season upgrades, only temporary, still have to be upgraded at the end of the year.
Oh, my bad. Their website's obviously much more up to date than ours...

Is it 5 more delistings or just 5 more list changes though? Daisy to Carlton through FA rumours are getting stronger by the day, and there's a lot of talk about a Shaw trade.

Apologies if I offend with the use of the term. I will not use it again.

"Not a flag-winning player". Again, in my view only (and everyone other than some Saints supporters). Appreciate the view that he might be a bridge between experience and the "real" CHB/FB down the track, but I would prefer we used that pick on someone who may not ever play, but may also be a top liner.
