Would live for the Hawks to miss the 8 this year and for several more.

The level of arrogance that it will just happen again for them is nauseating 🤮

They are not looking good at the moment. Teams have already worked em out and the season hasn’t even started.

    My pies employed mate has been telling me that Membrey has been on fire all preseason.

    Quite a dynamic forward group over there

    Strange seeing Nibbler in yellow. 

    in #28 - clearly a lesser player than he was in #30 for the red and blue

    Looking at the performance of Collingwood's players, they have immense talent on every line. If they stay healthy, they will be very hard to beat. Adding Houston and Membrey as well... even their youth play like 100+ gamers.

    I firmly believe the Pies will miss the 8 again. They just don't have the depth to cover the usual injuries that will come with their aging list. Heck, if N Daicos had a season ending injury they would probably finish bottom 4.

    Watch for a suite of retirements and trades come season's end.

    Could face some stiff competition for a spot after Daicos was declared Collingwood's 'Spearhead' in practice match reports.

    Snorts aside, I do wish Membrey well. Realistic shot at being Collingwood's leading goalkicker.

    And for the sake of football he has an important job to do to make sure Collingwood don't bottom out enough to get any more top picks until Tassie blows up the draft.

    Fun fact, Collingwood are now substantially older than even Geelong, with a staggering 20 players with more than 100 games experience and likely to be included most weeks meaning that their on-field age is going to be even older than their list average.

    Daicos and McCreary are the only Magpies under 24 with a solid claim on best 22 spots.

    It wasn’t a legit injury though. He came off in the first quarter for “awareness” reasons. The commentators (Dwayne and Dunstall) said there’s nothing in it. And when he was coming off he smiled at the camera.

    But yeah, give Tracc the Brownlow now regardless 😅

    starcevich out of the opening northern states round with concussion

    I think we might be hearing more on this tomorrow...

    ...but there does need to be 2 clear weeks between the last practice match & your first game.

    Personally I think it's time for practice games to be put to bed.

    Adelaide adding 3 best 22 players of the right age and experience is big for them. They'll be good this year. 

    Neal-bullen raising the standards as he does

    They’ve gone from something like 3rd youngest list to 8th oldest in one off-season

     Finals or bust for Nicks

    It very much suits their game plan. 

    It will be a fascinating watch tactically nevertheless.

    People said the same of Geelong.

    GWS look like they've done a hard training session at there captain's run.

    No direction whatsoever on every line.

    Collingwood might give them a nice old touch up going on this 1st qtr.

    Yes these practice games are dangerous. Everything should be inhouse until Round One

      The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

      The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

      “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

      The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

      It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

      Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
