Apologies for any inconvenience. We will try to find a replacement.
With his bro already there that would surprise meIm hearing that Nick Daicos is seriously considering not joining Collingwood as a father son.
Not sure I rate his bloated opinion tbhListening to sen yesterday.
Matt Rendell was saying that this years crop has so far been a tad disappointing performance wise due to the late start to the pre-season(Covid) and a clearer picture of who what where won't be known until very late in the season.
True.Not sure I rate his bloated opinion tbh
True.

I hear next year’s crop will be a super draft.
Bloke has no idea. Just look at Pies young potatoesNot sure I rate his bloated opinion tbh
Which he commented recently that coll had 20 real good kids , okkkkkayBloke has no idea. Just look at Pies young potatoes
What an imbecile.Which he commented recently that coll had 20 real good kids , okkkkkay
his source was joffa, he thought joffa was talking about players and not just kidsWhich he commented recently that coll had 20 real good kids , okkkkkay
just go and interview him a few times and tell him we are considering bidding on him with our 1st pickIf the AFL article is correct about the Bulldogs FS Sam Darcy shooting into top 5 calculations then it could help provide us an opportunity to move up the draft order for a bunch of our later picks considering the dogs only have picks 17* and 72*
Draft picks as of the end of this round if all favourites get up today and we trade CCJ for Gold Coasts pick 19:-
11, 16, 19, 25, 40, 41, 48.
Geez I wouldn’twould trade our two first and 2nd for pick two to take nick
I reckon 6 is the magic number.Are we really going to have room on our list to bring in 7 players though? Houli might retire... we'll probably trade CCJ and move on 2-3 like Garth etc. so maybe. But there's a good chance we'll only have room to select 4-5.
If we do trade CCJ (a part of me would love to keep him to be honest), it might be better for us to trade him for a future pick or upgrade one of our current picks for a higher future pick. e.g. CCJ plus our 2021 2nd round pick 40 for a 2022 1st round pick - or a fringe first team player (like Ross) plus a 3rd round pick for a future 2nd round pick.
If we get creative, we could set ourselves up with a pretty decent hand not just in this year's draft but next year's as well.
Matt Balmer has just resigned from FOX. So now there's no other "draft experts" in the media other than Twomey and Landsberger.
God help us.
If you have any interest in the draft, then that's more a reflection on you than him flying under the radarNever heard of him, talk about flying under the radar
he was a member of big footy ??If you have any interest in the draft, then that's more a reflection on you than him flying under the radar

Houli....only dropped off because of his calf issue. He will stay till he retires I believe.IMO
6 probables
Houli (retired)
CCJ (trade)
Naish, Garthwaite, Chol. DES (delist)
3 possibles
Cumberland. Stack delisted
KMac free agent
This will leave 29 to 31 senior listed players and 4 0r 5 Cat A rookies (Pickett, Aarts, Mansell, Miller, Stack)
We have to elevate Pickett, Aarts (both contracted next year) and either delist or elevate Stack
If we elevate 3 rookies, that mean 32 to 34 senior players on the list. 4-6 spots available
If Stacky gets delisted that means 31 to 33 senior players on the list 5-7 spots available
We could also rookie some the 2nd year players without delisting them under the new rule the AFL brought in last year.
So some of Cumberland, Martyn and Biggy could be rookied.
I left Ralphsmith off this list as reckon from what he has shown he will be a priority re-signing.
If we rookie 1 players then we will have 30 to 33 senior spots taken 5 to 8 spots available for the ND.
Doubt that Bachar will be offered another year. I hope CCJ stays but seems likely he will leave for greater opportunity and more money.Houli....only dropped off because of his calf issue. He will stay till he retires I believe.
ccj.... Why trade him when his been in the Richmond system for a few years and looks ready to take the next step?
jr can’t play forever and if anything we need a back up tall forward.
stack....only young, if he settles down he could be electric for us, we would be throwing him away for peanuts if we traded him.
if anything we need a ball magnet.
