Changes for next umm, year

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

Out - Oxley, Blair, Sinclair, White, Smith, Keefe, Schade, Mayne, Wills, Crocker, Seir.
 
Can we please avoid the Blair abuse? If he goes, he goes, and I wish him all the best. Until then he is a listed Collingwood player, with a premiership, in the decline of his career. He's not the worst footballer to pull on the boots for the Pies.

He's been bashed so thoroughly here, I don't get it. A premiership player who gives his all and got more out of himself than he had any right to. Seems like a really nice bloke too.

Yes he has severe limitations and can be very frustrating as a result, and I would like to see a more gifted player replace him ASAP, but he deserves far more respect than he gets.

Whatever happens happens
Think fasolo is gone which is shit
Cox hopefully stays
White gone
Mayne hopefully gone
Blair gone
Keefe gone
Broomhead hopefully stays
Mackie gone

Maybe a Fasolo trade could end up working out ok for us. As long as we get well compensated. The Eagles could really do with him. Maybe a 3 way to get Lever?
 
Caracella to coach and Bucks to remain at Collingwood in a senior club position.
 
Out

Oxley
Blair
Sinclair
Fasolo (trade....probably second round....replacing the pick traded away for WHE)
White
Possibly delist and rerookie Sier

Mackie
Schade
off rookie list

Promoted off rookie list
Cox
Thomas

Thats four live ND picks before trading anybody in.

In.

Is there any genuine basis for the talk of Cox wanting to leave or is it just speculation? I haven't read anything that points to him wanting to leave, outside of BF anyway.

How could it be wrong
 
As they happen.
Pert gone = can be replaced, seems as though he and Bucks clashed.
Burn's gone = disappointing, would have thought he was one of the better assistants and Hawthorn see it that way.
White retired = not in best 22.
 
In: Jarrod Brander or Aaron McNaughton.

Kill me now.


Balta will prove to be a better player then him. It's interesting people are focusing on Key Defenders very early in the draft when typically they can be had quite late as it's an easier role to play.

At 6 imo hopefully we have a real hard look at Fogarty, Brander and at a stretch Balta (I like him maybe early at 6 but if a very average kick in Naughtons being put up here...), and if he miraculously slides to us Rayner clubs are knocking his endurance but the kid is a talent imo should go at 1 but wont by the sounds.

Surely we can front end Mayne to get him out early, staggered that we didn't have a minimum # games clause and hope the club learn from this terrible trade.

In: longer periods of domination, more raking ng the game on, a fit Pendles and Wells, fitter Kirby, draft KPF

Out: Harvey, Rocca, Lockyer, sideways & backwards play, poor skills
 
Where is the Fasolo talk coming from? We need to keep him imo.
Exactly, not sure where this comes from.
Would be a big loss as he has been pretty good the last two years with a fair amount of injuries and depression to deal with.

We would have a nightmare forward line with Fas, Elliot, Kirby, Daicos, Reid & Moore

How could it be wrong

err...


Ramanauskas was on 927 breakfast

Said Cox wants senior opportunity and this would be hard behind Grundy


BF once again proving to be more right then wrong, ie he is looking at his options.



So lets look at the facts.

Has had a contract in front of him - as yet unsigned.

His manager stating he wants more senior opportunity and (realising his best chance is as first ruck) being behind Grundy will be a tough ask to supersede him.

Hence the speculation he is weighing his options, now hopefully the club can sway him to stay. But given Ramanauskas response that doesn't sound good. neilk

No idea on assistant coaches, haven't heard us linked to anyone yet.

Not even going to touch the senior coach gig, no one knows whats going on there.

I reckon Freo need his type more, unless WC lose Darling. They are basically identical players in how they play (Darling and Faz).

Imagine the stiffy's that news would create. Also I think they will stick with Sinkers.

I would also try trade Fas for a 2nd and be aiming at Freos.
