We'll just have to agree to disagree Dr. I actually rate Phillips and Thomas did finish last in the Grand Final sprint. Surely that closes the argument in my favour!

yeah good luck with Phillips not coming last in the grand final sprint.

    Because if we don't attract the cream of the crop annually, it means my life is worthless...

    Josh Thomas biggest goal kicking season haul at Collingwood - 38

    Ben Kennedy biggest goal kicking season haul at Collingwood - 9

    Pretty sure Thomas is an upgrade on Kennedy and has kicked a bag of 5 goals once and a bag of 4 twice.

    Exactly right - so many uneducated opinions here, Thomas is EXACTLY what we need!!! Especially with Brown coming in. Solid finisher, averagesan effective i50 tackle a game, good efficiency, smart & was still didn't picked player in a stacked smalls group at pies. Role changed this year, was played more as a def fwd hence goals tally being lower but still picked every wk when fit in a strong side. 

    He and Phillips would be good gets, assuming my dream of Treloar or Menegola for the wing remains just that.

    Thomas immediately makes us better and would be in at R1. Could easily kick 30+ goals in a team that has Weid/Brown combo

    If he was 24 I'd be all for it. But at 29 and being in decline and a role player only I'd have to pass. I'd rather see us continue to get games into the likes of Pickett, Spargo, Chandler and Bedford instead as well as move Harmes into our forward set up.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
