Given he wasn’t available for selection until 2020 and Collingwood only re-drafted him last year knowing this, why would they delist him?

Yes! Fills a definite need. It's a no brainer. Collingwood are well served for small backs with Quaynor, Murphy and Noble. He must've been superfluous to needs.

 

Unless there is more at play here???

He is from up this way in Albury/Wodonga and I know some of his knockabout mates..

All I will say is stay absolutely clear from this muppet.

Quick, running defender, this guy can play. We need pace. take him, no brainer.

You’re kidding aren’t you, why would we want to pick up an average reject 

Its amazing how the draft period turns hacks into superstars

The kid can play so there must be something more going on for him to be cut before the season is over.

This has bright-red-sparkly-alarm-bells ringing all around it.

If we have any list spots open late in the DFA period or if he is available as a rookie selection then I'd be interested. Obvious talent but clearly some risk. But given he has the right to play come round 1 it might be a more calculated risk.

Delisted for a reason. Collingwood don't get rid of players for the sake of it.

Everyone knows everyone up bush mate, and it's who you know also. Doesn't mean I mingle with them on a social basis.

Very different environment to the big city lights down your way.

Some guys are so talented that you can overlook some off field worries. Like Dustin Martin and Toby Greene. 

Sam Murray would be a worry.  Alas it’s a No. 

Add DeGoey to that list

Not that it's every just one night but a night on the charlie for your birthday doesn't necessarily make you a trouble maker, nor does having a knockabout country mates. I'd bet money on Clarrie having come across a few undesirables in his time. Family is often a better guide. 

But my concern with Murray is he's a bog ordinary kick. Might run really well and win contests but there's no point getting it if you can't use it.

As does everyone. But I would also bet that Clarrie is far more smarter (which he is) then Murray in the upstairs department 

Oliver's mates in Shepp are a lot different crowd to the ones Murray hangs out with up here. Only just 3 weeks ago did one get done for doing a break in and around local businesses and was found with a bag of meth at his disposal.

Collingwood have a long and proud history of putting up with all sorts of crap from their players as long as they can play, so he wasn't dropped for being a [censored].  Must mean that either his injury issues are too much or he has fatal flaws in his game.

Agree. He was fast but a bit of a clanger king.

    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.
