Apparently Collingwood has changed its website banner from 'side-by-side' to 'made-by-many'.  Can't confirm the first part. 

If it has been changed, coincidence or damage control.  I suggest the latter - usually they make a big fanfare of such things.

But what are they thinking 'Made-by-many' is soooo boring and uninspiring.

Nothings impossible. However, North have to go into rebuild mode now and are unlikely to play finals in the next 3 to 4 year period - Brown's likely career span. He turns 28 in a few days time.

I thought you were joking, but I checked their website (so others don't have to) and you're right!

WTF does does 'made by many' even mean?

Made by many; destroyed by back-ended contracts!

I also couldn't believe it so I checked their website before posting.

'Side-by-side' is a good battle-cry but 'made-by-many'...bland, bland, bland.

I was wondering who is going to drop out of the 8 so we can replace them.  I know the answer:  Collingwood!!  They are a bit of a mess.

Hopefully its either 31 or 33 and switch of picks, rather than 26

I don't think that really matters too much.  There isn't a whole of difference between them - if it's 26 and a swap of fourth rounders of something then that's a terrific outcome for us.

Can't shake the feeling the delay is to do with us wanting to expand this deal to include something else. or potentially getting a player involved. 

 

Damn, we really only getting Ben Brown after finishing 9th in a highly lacklustre season......

Sounds like we've given North a variety of options - some reports say that we've thrown up names like ANB or Vanders in these discussions - but North aren't keen on any of them.  Looks like they just want picks, or the players they may have asked for (like a Harmes) is off the table.  I don't mind us trying a few different things as long as we get the deal done in the end.

Yeah for sure, just a coleman medalist who has kicked nearly 200 goals in the last 4 years. and getting him for a 2nd round pick. horrible off season.

Don't think he has won a Coleman. Few seconds and thirds.

Actually that’s quite a major and iconic change given that “side by side” is part of their theme song and heritage.

Good to see that you have woken from your drunken stupour and crawled upstairs, from your dungeon wine cellar.

We finished 9th. Ben Brown is a 200cm mature proven key forward and goal kicker. 5 of our 8 losses we won the inside 50 count.

Yep disappointing.

As I said when Treloar move was mooted. Unless Pies paid at least $300k each year for the 5 years of the contract he was staying. Looks like when Dunkley goes he comes in.

Pies will still need to do a bit of clearing so guess Stephenson will be a Roo today and HOPEFULLY Phillips a Demon.

Treloar is going to the bulldogs. time to move on from that fantasy guys. he'll be involved in the Dunkley deal. 

Treloar is a risk I did not want to happen.

(A mess) made by many (back end deals)

Collingwood list management is a hot mess. The person dishing out their contracts must be the ones doing Trump's taxes... 'she'll be right'.

This fire sale is amusing.

That looks close to about right...

Their willingness to part with $100k for next season was always a joke.

It's going to cost them big time.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
