I have this sneaking suspicion he will be on the move. Was one of the players rumoured to not be a huge fan of Buckley. He didn't look like he wanted to be at Pies last year.

Funny ... I heard him being interviewed yesterday, and got the feeling he wasn't fully commited to Collingwood.

I have a gut feel he may consider a move, possible he could be good mates with Dawesy or Leigh Brown or get on well with Neeld.

Means anythings possible.

We should be targetting every good player we can.

For the next 3-4 years i expect the MFC to pay overs to attract quality players.

Our list was that bad.

Thomas would be a great get...

It is interesting that Eddie's knifing of Malthouse and his anointing his love child seems to be causing a few rifts. Long may it continue.

On the off chance that the lunatics running the asylum at the AFL decide to screw us over the tanking fiasco and take away draft picks then it will be more vital than ever for us to swing a big recruiting coup and the best way these days is through free agency because the only cost is what you pay the player. There's no loss of draft picks when you get a free agent so, as long as we have the room in our TPP, I would be looking strongly at securing Daisy. Make it happen.

Daisy T ... MFC.

Snowball.

Hell.

Still, if MFC had no draft picks it would be worth venturing into hell to see if a snowball was available and wanted to get out of the joint. I reckon Bucks may be more important than Eddie though.

If Sylvia doesn't perform this year and we let him go, surely the cash freed up by his departure would be useful in cajoling Daisy across to the Dee's.

I think we are only going to lure someone of that ilk when we show the kind of improvement that will make us actually relevant.

Show them we are a team on the rise and they may want to jump on, but at the moment...

I think if he is open to a move the MFC would be insane not to inquire about him.

if he was to leave the filth he is a must get for the MFC. I think goal kicking midfielders are one of the most important players in modern footy

So are you confident this will be the case by the end of this season?

Or, are you happy just to state the obvious?

Would we have the cap room to afford someone like that and still be safe if a couple of players really improve in the next 2 years and look for bigger contracts? paying dawes and co decent money would leave a dent

What is so obvious?

I didn't count too many realists in this thread.

I gave the equivalent of a very polite "are you f___ing kidding?"

Should have been ruder...

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
