Collingwood have de-listed 5 senior listed players. Cameron Wood, Simon Buckley, Jonathan Celgar, Luke Rounds and Kirk Ugle have all been told that they will be given a new contract in 2013.

Except for Buckley obviously, any of these guys worth a look come PSD Ceglar or Rounds maybe ?

Wow that Woods/Grimes/Johnstone 3 way trade really worked out for us. At least that was 1 trade where we came out looking good. I dont think the other are worth looking at. Only Neeldy knows that.

I'd happily take Buckley back has some pace .

Posted

Buckley possibly for some pace off a wing.

Rounds possibly for that defensive forward role to sit on the oppositions best rebounding defender. But only if we have more delistings. otherwise it's a pass for me.

Buckley was a spud when he was with us, I was staggered when Collingwood took him. Picking him up again would be a ridiculous decision. If we're looking at ex-MFC players who have pace and absolutely nothing else, why stop with Buckley? Might as well bring back Jace Bode and Luke Williams while we're there.

I liked the look of Ugle... but didn't perform on the big stage.

Luke Rounds would be a small chance I think, he is tough and works hard.

Couldn't stop laughing at those who at times asked "why is Buckley a star at Collingwood, but was useless for us?"

Laughable to even suggest picking him up.

They are very light on for ruckmen and I'm surprised they didn't go after Stef Martin when we were negotiating with them for Dawes.

If the aging Jolly goes down, they're really cactus.

The big O has been spotted doing the rounds at Westpac Centre, more than once I might add!

In short, no.

A big NO to all of them

PS: Tingles,you might want to edit your post: Cameron Wood, Simon Buckley, Jonathan Celgar, Luke Rounds and Kirk Ugle have all been told that they will not be given a new contract in 2013.

Delist Spencer and get Wood. Rate him much higher.

Gee, Spencer is still on his first list & has some schitt about him, well liked as well, & you reckon Cameron has the Wood on him :huh: pardon the pun, i think we'd better stay with Spencer for a year & see how he goes. B)

I can't remember one Lander claiming Buckley was a star at the Filth

Sure you haven't got your Buckley's mixed up?

Depends if Neeld rates any of them, only one out of that list you'd look at would be Wood, depends if he's less of a battler than Spencil I guess.

Says alot when they and others did not go for Martin. Hmm

Would not touch Cameron Wood with a barge pole.......Big pass

Lol love the creativity. I see the mongrel in Spencer but he is still just too ungainly and uncoordinated I think. From what I've seen of Wood he isn't too bad and would be good insurance, which is what Spencer is anyway.

Nothing to see there. A reminder though, that even the strong clubs pick up their share of spuds. It's not exclusively our domain.

Except their spuds are usually a better standard than our spuds.

Let US go forward and not back.

Lets not compound any sillyness either by helping others !

No - they have so many good footballers flicking the ball around it wasnt hard for Buckley to look in a couple of games.

Funny, was just telling a Collingwood supporter they should pick him up for a backup in case Jolly goes down, gives more time to develop the almost mythical Witts.

Isn't this why they went for Lynch? An each way bet on rucking and forward.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
