Interesting i thought.. i heard derek hine talking on radio this week about a kid by the name of James vear. Have seen him play for marcellin college at times, and i thought he would fit in well to our forward line. Can snag goals, and would be a great partner in crime for dids. Do we want him, or target a KPP?
 
If Hine talked about him on the radio some club will pick him up before us because everybody wants to be like Collingwood

If a rival club picks up Vear before our pick I think you'll see Hine doing a small fist pump.
 
Side question, is it possible to put players on our list (say rookie list) without them having to go through a draft?

If so, does that mean we can tell players not to enter any drafts and agree with them that we'll list them and pay the amount of money they would've gotten anyway? I doubt it but could be a sneaky move.

The only Pies James Veer would go near would be The for'nTwenty or Mrs. Macs
 
yeah it's all mind games guys, he's a spud :p

This, lol. He has another player in mind and knows if he says names they will get picked up before our pick meaning a player we might be after will slide to our pick. I predict Carlton will get James Vear. Carlton = Collingwood wannabie.
 
One of Hines tactics is to not have a known Collingwood contact interview players pre-draft so other clubs will downgrade them and give Pies greater chance to get certain players in the 3rd and 4th rounds.
Everytime I hear a player interviewed after the draft that gets drafted to the Pies they say "Collingwood didn't even speak to me". They prefer to speak to people that have known the player to gather character information.

Pretty sure Hiney has his eye on some players and is trying to get them held into our picks.
