Henry was dropped for Ash because his heart was not with the pies. A very clear message from the MC and we did the best we could on the trade. No spilt milk here, a well handled cutting of the losses.

Come on people let it go - like Buckley at the Bears he never wanted to be here.

I still believe we got Mitchell (subsidised what's more 
) for Ollie ... so therefore absolutley worth the investment.
Would not have happened if Ollie wanted to stay and the picks we threw in were somewhat disposable.
In fact i reckon Geelong paid a big price in costing them Cooper Stephens, but maybe it'll end up being a win-win-win deal for all 3 clubs and players. Wouldn't that be nice.
If Mitchell is a gun for us for 3+ more years then i can look at Ollie and enjoy him being a good player too ( just a bit lesser than Mitch I hope). And I will take an interest in Cooper too and smile if he is the best of all 3 ...lol.

Ironically, we needed them both.
I start with unwaxed floss scraping the surfaces, then the cleaning and finish with piksters and interdental brushes matched to the gaps. If I had spent 2 minutes a day brushing as a child, I wouldn't be wasting valuable time now trying to please the periodontist at my 6 monthly appointments. It's either spend the time on them or be a poster boy for the Collingwood stereotype, my teeth wallowing in a glass next to the bed. You're probably blessed with a more than adequate set of choppers, gums and bone, though the other organ to which you allude sounds like it could use a bit of an overhaul.

Can't agree with needing them both on displayed list performance jmac.
We were one kick from the GF and Adams was on one leg.
Simply put with Tom in the team we would have made the GF and been bloody competitive.
Why did I get the impression Grundy and Henry were gone, Mitchell was in way before the season had ended?
Do you take your teeth out before sex or leave them in? I won't ask about your partner's habits.

My dad had false teeth in high school.
My mother had all her teeth out by 30. Supposedly that was the trend in the 40's: if you had money you replaced your teeth. These days the health care, particularly in terms of preventative care, for my children is fantastic. I've enjoyed a lifetime of tank water - apparently that wasn't good for the teeth I don't have any longer.
The kid wanted to go to Geelong. Imagine if we had a recruit that wanted to play for us so badly. See #6252. It wasn't about money. Now if it turns out he is shite then bad look for him. On the other hand if it works out well then kudos, he is not simply about money but choice. I object to this attitude you are an a-hole if you don't want to play for the pies or if you play against them. I respect someone that is clear about what they want. It cost him a place in cfc 1'st team for half a season. Let him go, move on. I would rather see Bruzzy take out duckwood in the middle of a supermarket.

No offence but he chose not to play for Collingwood.
Why are there any posts in this thread if he did not fall of a building or do both knees?
Who gives a *?

Tom Mitchell, Ollie Henry and Cooper Stephens switch clubs in three-way trade
TRADEOctober 12, 2022
Collingwood receives Tom Mitchell FROM: HAWTHORN
Collingwood receives a second-round pick (currently No.25) FROM: GEELONG CATS
Hawthorn receives Cooper Stephens FROM: GEELONG CATS
Hawthorn receives two third-round picks (currently No.41 and No.50) FROM: COLLINGWOOD
Geelong receives Ollie Henry FROM: COLLINGWOOD
Right, so for Ollie and 41 & 50 which were disposable ..... we got a subsidised Mitchell and 25 (George / Keeley / Hustwaite ? lol).
Thats a win in my book.

We did his name was nick Stevens, port wouldn't deal him to us and ended up at Carlton.

Floreat Pica, Bitch!
And a future second.
So what you’re saying is that the value he had for himself differed to the value the club wanted him to accept. So he left.
Choices can sometimes get taken away from you. And made to seem as though you’ve made the choice.
Now only time will show if his evaluation of his worth was correct or was the clubs.

Your evaluation of the worth of your own opinion is somewhat incongruous with reality. Fortunately, we don't have to wait for this to be confirmed.
Henry's manager strongly suggested that he wouldn't accept any deal from CFC.
It's obvious to
Try not to complicate things.

He left for family reasons. Not money.
Similarly, my cousin at the age of 12. Her teeth all rotted away and were extracted. Mum told her how lucky she was not having to clean (not that she did, hence the problem) them anymore. Pre fluoride days. Yet there are still w***ers among us who object to fluoride in the public water system.

Thinking of you - just about to make my 6 monthly check up appt - dentist is an Eagles supporter but other than that a fine fellow.
I should floss more than I do but he removes the plaque with his gadget.
Apparently I have "oily" saliva
In my first teaching post (country Vic) - I became known (in the pub at least) as the "oily gob wog" -
due to my olive skin and my ability to make a glass of beer go flat in record time.

We need to be charitable about Ollie's departure.
Fact - he's a handsome colt.
Further fact - the Geelong region desperately needs young men with his genetic qualities. We have performed a major act of kindness and genetic redistribution.
