Recommitted Reef McInnes [Signs 2 year deal]

Might be tall but he's no KPP. As a forward, he's genuinely cleverer at crumbing than being a marking target. Overall, he has never displayed consistent forward craft. He's kicked a few goals this year in little game time but many are quite opportunistic goals and rarely are displays of genuine forward ability, if you get me.

The FOMO in me says he could be this year's D'Ambrosio, and a rival club might find the right position for him and he could be the bargain of the trade period.

But in four years, he's still not made it clear what his actual position is. He was drafted as a forward-mid but his tank is absolutely nowhere the level it needs to be to play midfield.

Might join the list of success stories of forwards turned defenders. Too late to find out at Collingwood.

Plenty of clubs could do worse than target him as he'll come at a very cheap price

So we could lose him for nothing?

Would prefer we hang on to him as I can’t imagine he’d net us much in a trade, and has good upside. Has pretty exciting AFL traits, just fitness base is massively holding him back.

He is that almost player. Speed, height, good overhead, good agility. Just gets puffed easily and can't chase which is a big no no for our game plan.

I’m not sure any AFL club has a game plan that caters to a player who ‘just gets puffed easily’ when they all prioritise run and spread.

But is it fixable? If so he has all the tools.
 
still no contract?
Won't know until after trade period. But, if he is in talks with other clubs they may wait until Pies delist him instead of trading for him.
He's just one , like a lot of the pies OOC might have to wait til post trade period.
Unless he gets an offer elsewhere.
Yep. This move by clubs is mainly about Dean, Kreuger, and McInnes at the Pies.

Dozens of AFL players’ futures on hold due to depth of talent in AFL draft
Collingwood trio Charlie Dean, Nathan Kreuger and Reef McInnes are all waiting to be told if they are required by the Pies as the draft’s phenomenal depth puts dozens of AFL players in limbo.
The trio has not been delisted by Collingwood, instead told the club will not be able to make a call on them until after the trade and free agency period.
Across the competition players who would in normal circumstances be recontracted could be pushed out given the frantic rush to get into this year’s super-draft.
Rivals are not interested in trading for them because they are aware there is a real prospect they will be available as delisted free agents.
Clubs are also prepared to move on players who have played strong roles in their 2024 teams given the desperate rush to take multiple picks in this year’s draft.
Carlton’s Sam Durdin, Richmond pair Noah Cumberland and Kamdyn McIntosh and Hawthorn’s Denver Grainger-Barras are also in that position as the trade period approaches.
 
don't like him as a defender

if he plays and wants the best chance at making it at the level it should only be as a forward

He's just as bad if not worse as a forward.

If he had a tank and good foot skills he'd make a decent mid.

He was best 22 today.

Can't see the Pies not offering him another season and let him focus on recovery.
