Competitions Collingwood All Time Draft

[magpies42]

Not necessarily the next player I want but I need a Full Forward so with Pick 47 I select a man who kicked 100 goals in a season, won a Coleman and was our club leading goal kicker 5 times. With pick 47 I select Brian Taylor.

Well done was hoping BT would slip.

He was my next one... hoping he'd slide 2 more picks. Great pick btw

Edit: Had my blurb written already about last century goalkicker, but his last 2 were most important etc

Tarkyn_24 you’re up mate.

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Alby Pannam for me please. Another creative type that could also play on ball to complement Daics. Sixth in Collingwood’s all time goalscorer list, and from a Collingwood royalty bloodline.

Alby Pannam

Alby Pannam, more than most, should have felt right at home in the Collingwood change rooms. After all, his father had been a legend of the club in its earliest days, and oldest brother Charlie had been a star just a few years before he arrived there in the early 1930s. But Alby was small […]

Great pick.
A sensational record as a player.
By all accounts a tough, brash, loud, cocky and brilliant player.
453 goals for the Pies.
With a run of scoring 35+ goals in a season for ten years in a row!
Could we use him now!!

Would’ve been an interesting player in the modern game I feel. Potentially too small, but his contemporary comparison in Brent Harvey managed to hang around for a couple of games

I’m picturing a rougher tougher version of Alan Didak. Goals galore, usually a kind of roving forward. Super dangerous.

I guess the height and roving capabilities is what’s given me the Harvey image, but described as more skilful around the sticks (not that Brent was any slouch!)

That is a great pick, but the one that was on my radar also. The last 2. Barge and Alby now both off the list.

I'm on the clock but will be asking for extra time. Its Bont and Selwood all over again

Getting tougher now...

 

[South of the Yarra]

Can we change our players positions or are we locked into the position they were originally in? Just asking for a friend

Yeah I figure it's a temporary thing to ask Trickster for the spreadsheet and to help us, but depending how the draft goes, we can shuffle them around.

 

[Trickster]

Ok with Pick 49, I'm selecting Alan Didak on a half forward flank. 218 games and 274 goals for the Pies. What this doesn't highlight is the brilliance he possessed and the deadly left foot he had.

Who could forget his 2 goals agst Bris in the 03 Qual final in the last quarter or his 3 goals agst WCE in 3 mins, his torp agst Carlton in 2010 from about 60 or his now famous shimmy.

But aside from his mercurialness, he was also good enough to win our B&F in 2006 and twice topped 40 goals - in 2006 and in 2010 when he won the goalkicking in a premiership year.

Had he spent more time as a forward he would have kicked a lot more goals, but that would have robbed us of his midfield brilliance and scything delivery into our forward line.

Over to magpies42 for Pick 50.

Fantastic because I am switching Fothergill to the centre.

I can’t imagine how frustrating it must be draft night for Hine. Just missing out on Didak, Alby and BT is a killer. I have to rethink…will get back to you shortly

 

[Tarkyn_24]

If I’d not taken Alby I was going Dids. Interesting.

 

[magpies42]

Crikey this has been a genuine toss up between 4 players, apologies for the delay. I’ve decided to bolster the midfield/wing/ forward lines with Steele Sidebottom

. Dual Copeland trophy winner, finished second in the Brownlow in 2018. Skillful, dual sided, good overhead, a great runner and tackler. Sharp shooter in from of goal can just about play any position on the ground but I’ll play him on a wing for the mean time.

His 2018 campaign was legitimately amazing. Great choice

I thought he was about to make it to me

I was hoping someone who kicked 400+ goals might have remained hidden given his diminutive nature

 

[iGNITER]

Dead set. The last 4 picks were players I was going to take. Stressful times…

 

[South of the Yarra]

Just caught up on everyone's choices today. Wow incredible picks and so many great teams coming together. Loving this

 

[half_back_flank]

With pick 51, I choose Neil Mann. Started as a forward (48 goals in '47 from 16 games), then moved to the backline (runner up in a Copeland in '48). But it was his efforts when thrown into the ruck from 1951 was when he really excelled.

- Premiership ruckman '53
- Best finals player '53 and '55
- Copeland trophy '54, runner up '53, third place '55
- 3rd in the '53 brownlow, 2nd in '54.
- Vice captain '50 - '54
- Captain '55 and '56
- Victoria ‘54 – ’56.
