Look to sure this has been mentioned .... probably has
Anyway I'll post it again lol

Collingwood list manager Troy Selwood quits after six weeks

Collingwood has been dealt a blow.

Hope Troy is alright, must be somewhat serious if he’s stepping down after only 6 weeks.

Okunbor is in his 3rd year as a Cat B rookie
Atkins is in his 3rd year as a Cat A rookie
Brownless, Close and Henderson are all in their 2nd years as Cat A rookies

Okunbor is the one who'll probably be saved, Atkins would obviously be upgraded if he needed to be. Useful for us because it seems like Okunbor's coming along but not good enough to justify a senior spot with list spots being tight.

Constable and Narkle still in nappies compared to Higgins, Smith, selwood, Danger, Duncan, Guthrie, menegola, etc. Narkle must be offered a deal at the very least.

does he need to be?? Why??

I get the reason your saying to do it, but I don’t necessarily agree with the view.

does losing A grade elite mids create a need to re sign C-B minus midfielders ??

I don’t think that necessarily solves anything. You can only replace A grade mids with A grade mids, which is why I feel they need to go hard at chasing in an experienced midfielder of the caliber or go hard in at the draft to find a gun. I don’t think narkle as a starting regular best 22 mid is going to resolve next to anything in terms of a premiership quality engine room, so what’s the point?? He is good depth, not cream

Scoops is not a source

A kid. And as much as it has been funny to laugh at him it kind of killed the vibe when it became apparent he had a learning disability

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Maybe he loves the Geelong Football Club and the culture they've created?

Think about it: Why would he go to Collingwood after some of the rumours (and facts) out of there recently?

Salary mismanagement, throwing players under the bus, fascist style of leadership at the top, racism..

Especially as a young Indigenous man, if even half that stuff is true he'd be mad to go there.

If he does enjoy Geelong and he's given every indication that he does, then I doubt Collingwood would be of much interest to him.

Honestly, I'd be fearing the SA clubs more if he was to leave.

For all the debacles that club has it cab turn around quickly. They still have decent players out there and some good father sons. Sonia would be close to a walk up b22 key position player who would get a long contract despite injury.

There's a big incentive to move.

Then for us, is he the next in after Hendo is out probably a full year from now? Or is that DeKoning? The change we would need to see is Blitz and Hendo both out of the b22 backline with Blitz on the wing/ruck role. Then we lose a wing. Do we push Higgins into retirement and have Tuohy as a rotation for wing/fwd? With Blitz around the ball is Sav in the 2s until Hawk retires?

 

[Grimoz]

Scoops is full of s**t as if Narkle would have said anything to the club while still getting a game, just making stuff up now to sound in the know.

However i do believe that all will look elsewhere come seasons end.

Collwobble and North hav shown enough to give hope to thir membrs that they are not that far away. In one sense it gives reassurance that when we do hist the wall that we do not have to look forward to a decade of pain

I think Kruger should be a strong selection option R1 next year...if he stays fit. Plenty of reasons for him to stay.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Yeah it kinda stopped being as funny after that. Did you see his interview with Tom Morris? I had to turn it off after only a couple of minutes. Was just hard to watch

I think we need to win the flag this year just to provide a clear high for some of our players to retire on tbh

Na I haven’t, I think I’ll just steer clear of it and keep my opinions to myself about it

Good choice

Good news - hope we see pen to paper soon

Based on current ladder positions we will have three picks in the 30's at draft .... not ideal. My guess is we trade into an earlier pick this year or into next years draft.

Wells has a great record in the 20s (Duncan, Guthrie, Parfitt, Kelly) and 40s (Christensen, Vardy, Kolo, Stewart, Ratugolea) but 30s is a scrap heap for some reason.

 

[JohnZ]

Hope we can make it pick 18 for them. How did they get it?

Holmes we traded our future first so we could pick him at 20 last year

Yeah gws is about where I thought they'd be but Essendon really did us over there. Good on them

Edit: "right" had autocorrected to "wrong"

Hamling , Kersten, Jansen, Constable ....Hopefully Neale breaks that run.

He can only pick with the picks he has.. the three picks in the 30's cant be worse than three picks in the 40's. ..yet it is what it is. Seems a bit counter intuitive. Constable before Miers etc. Maybe its a bit like Close, as a Rookie picked after all clubs have used their picks. . He would have to be better than someone drafted. I remember several on here that were horrified that we passed on Gould, taken by Syd at 26 ..and is yet to play a game

Do we need to add another three kids in that range? It will be affected by who we delist I suppose.

What's the sample size of his 30s picks though? Not many times in the just 20 years have we been sitting outside the 8
