Opinion Past Collingwood players who could have been anything

[The Dawes]

One that i can't work out is damian houlihan...bagged 8 goals i think in a pre season match??

Big boy athletic

How did he not make it ?

too small for a key forward.

Great mullet though.

 

[pablo disco bar]

A bit left field but Brad Boyd. Captained our U19's side yet somehow ended up at Fitzroy and post merger the Bears. Always thought he could have been anything but career decimated by injury.

Defo

Didnt he captain Fitzroy and Brisbane?

Captained Fitzroy, not sure about the Bears. Was 1 of the 10 Fitzroy players taken by the Bears in the merger so I'd have thought they'd already have had a leadership team in place..

 

[legendstatus]

I haven't read all the threads but Lee Walker comes to mind, could have been anything.

 

[Trickster]

Croall

he may have been the u19s captain from memory

 

[35Daicos]

Yes, in 1986, when they won the flag: Under-19s Honour Roll | Collingwood Forever (collingwoodfc.com.au)



For anyone wondering, Stephen Petruccelle will (almost certainly) be the father of West Coast's Jack!: Stephen Petruccelle | Facebook

He was a bit like Karnesis. Forward with lovely skills -, but slow and an in-between size

We delisted Hassal and the Hawks picked him up in the psd, the same time we picked up Jason Taylor in the psd.

Molloy came out like a freight train when we recruited him in 2002. But then he got injured and was stuffed. I reckon we would have won that flag in 2002 if he was fit.

Leigh Carlson also started at Collingwood, where he was an ok player, before having a solid career at Fitzroy.

Cant remember

Didn't play. He got injured earlier in the year, don't know what the story was, but it was pretty much career over.

A player who took a long time to be any good...and then once he Was good was continually injured ....and that player was ben Sinclair

Another one of Malthouse's puzzling selections... He missed 12 weeks in 02 with a broken toe/foot, came back and played r22 and the first final underdone and did nothing... dropped for prelim and then brought back on a rainy GF day with a side that had enough talls that we ultimately lost to outside run....

Still have the avatar .

Created chances as a pressure small forward, just couldn’t convert in front of the sticks. Found his place down back but couldn’t get on the park. Emergency in the 2011 GF in his first year under Mick after playing a couple of games late, always straight back in the side under Bucks showed how highly rated he was internally.

Spot on. It was raining all morning so a big heavy slow forward was never going to be the answer on that day.
