Its one thing to get someone thats close to 30, but another thats 33yrs in september.

I've got no qualms with them plugging a hole really cheaply for 1 or 2 years. On the back of a preseason they're more likely to do so than the obsession with finding a hole plugger in the MSD with no time to learn the system.

Does it really matter if he is both in good form and not likely to cost anything?

There's a few we'll be considering signing at the end of the year as one or two year propositions. Pendles, Sidey, Howe, Cox, You sign them if they're going to help you.

Old pricks like Libba and Tex are still playing some good footy, and would help out too. Plus, we could continue to break our oldest team record

How good is Libba going? I thought it was all over when he looked punch drunk in that game last year. He's up there with Rowell and Nick in terms of being first to the ball and using it better than he ever has.

Moore's injury shows a KPD must be our #1 target this offseason by a mile

No Bont for the first six weeks gave him a rare opportunity to be the no 1

I don't think his role would have changed much. We want you to hunt the footy at ground level, Tom.

Butters and Trac probably the two on that list that we’d probably have a chance of getting

Rowell looking likely to stay, Allen probably off to the Lions or Hawks, Harley would be a mega overpay considering his current form, King would be a lot less injury prone

Butters would be a conversation for next year if he holds off until FA
Port wont let him go, and the general view is that he wont push for a move this year, so if he wants to leave in FA, we could put our hand up

Charlie McCartin Geelong VFL being talk about via media.

These all look gettable but are they any better than Frampton?

Howard OOC
Francis UFA
Laverde UFA
Silvagni UFA
McDonald UFA

Maybe but I have Frampton ahead of Silvagni

The SEN SA guys think he's gone at the end of 2026. He'll still be a trade though, as they won't be shit enough to accept the FA comp rather than matching and forcing a trade.

He was also very close with Ken too so that may play a part

Hope Butters is best mates with Houston.

TALKS RUMBLE ON FOR IN-FORM PIE​

COLLINGWOOD ruck Darcy Cameron is hopeful his future will be at the Pies, as discussions around a potential contract extension beyond his existing deal at the club rumble on.


The in-form Cameron is contracted through to 2026, though a number of clubs have signalled an interest in the premiership player as negotiations on a potential extension at the AIA Centre continue to simmer.


West Coast has been keen on Cameron, who is from Western Australia, while Carlton and St Kilda are among the clubs with a watching brief pending an outcome on the future of star free agent Tom De Koning.
Speaking to AFL.com.au on the eve of his 100th game for Collingwood last week, Cameron said his agent Colin Young from Young Guns Sports Management is having weekly chats with club officials around his future.


"I think so," Cameron said when asked if he sees his future at Collingwood.


"My manager's in constant conversations with Collingwood. He's catching up with them and talking with them almost weekly, then he's reporting back to me every couple of weeks about where it sits. Hopefully, we can get something sorted out. But I'll let him sort that out."
Cameron is among the League's top rucks and enjoyed a career-best season last year, earning a place in the All-Australian squad and finishing in second place in Collingwood's best and fairest count.


Having averaged 18.5 disposals and 28.5 hitouts to begin this season, Cameron hasn't let the speculation around his future impact his form and has said his attention remains firmly fixed on his football.


"I just like to focus on my footy," Cameron said. "My manager … he'll come back to with anything that needs to be said. I just like to focus on footy and try and let that do the talking." – Riley Beveridge

FUTURE PICKS COULD BE PIE SOLVER​

THE ABILITY to trade a set of future picks will help Collingwood's hunt for points as the Pies and Brayden Maynard's management are due for contract talks in coming weeks.


Maynard was keen to get through the opening block of Collingwood's season before concentrating further on his contract decision. With that time passed, the premiership Pie is expected to dig deeper into his call as North Melbourne loom with interest.


The Magpies have father-son prospect Tom McGuane and NGA talents Zac McCarthy and Jai Saxena in this year's draft but currently only hold their second and third-round picks.

Under the League's expanded trading rules, as Inside Trading revealed last week, they would be allowed to trade their future first-round pick for a first-round selection this year but also have a suite of selections in 2026 and 2027 to use to bolster their points hand and buy more picks to cover bids on the trio.


McCarthy has risen into first-round calculations as a key forward/ruckman with the Oakleigh Chargers, while Saxena has also emerged as a NGA surprise after booting five goals in a recent Coates Talent League game. – Callum Twomey

 

[Drought Break]

He should have been a Pie from the beginning. A couple of the phantom drafts had us taking him and he was a definite bolter. The Dogs swooped though the flogs

Had we nailed that 2013 draft we could have 20 flags by now. Imagine if Bont didn’t go before our pick at 6 and we got him and Cripps

However we would of lost a few more players with a salary cap squeeze etc

whilst keeping Maynard and Cameron, and bringing in McGuane & McCarthy.

Make it happen Wrighty Leppa, how hard could it be to orchestrate that

 

[sr36]

So we’re getting Bont, Butters & maybe Ben King whilst keeping Maynard and Cameron, and bringing in McGuane & McCarthy.

Make it happen Wrighty Leppa, how hard could it be to orchestrate that

Hopeful he can get it all done in the midseason draft so they're ready to go for finals.

Would settle for just Bont, even if he is another old plodder for us to rest

Butters for me. I think he's my favourite ever non-Pie.
