Feels odd they are offering Silvagni four years but only one to Mihocek. I can’t see him leaving but hope he does.

Sounds too bad to be true

    We gave Jordon Lewis 3years when Hawks new he only had I yr left in him

    Brodie had a late start to his AFL career

    I think he’s worth the risk

    Optimist in me says he'll be good for our fwd line and will provide leadership for our developing talls.

    MFCSS in me says he'll prevent opportunities for Kentfield and Jefferson, they'll request trades and become succesfull key forwards at their new club and we'll get 3rd-4th round picks in return that we will package up for a slightly better 3rd round pick.

    Our midfield and coaching strategy should be able to turn this poor bloke into a spud

    Hopefully picks up his second with us. He’s won the one premiership, not two.

    He will have two premierships in a couple of months

    Good player but turns 33 (early next year?)

    But haven't we got 5 key forwards on the books and contracted?

    Ben Brown was 29 when he came to us

    It's a maybe for me leaning more towards a yes if there is a decent short term plan involved

    But if we end up with Longmire as coach (pending what the Board does with Goodwin) then maybe 'Horse' can teach our KPF's how to play the position (being a former star forward himself)

    4 years for Silvagni is bizarre. He has been dropped numerous times by a rabble of a club

    Mihocek is an interesting one. 33 by round 1 next year so obviously a risk but we are desperate

    We'd have to offer something stupid to get him to leave - like a 3 year deal

    Disagree, he’s been excellent down back and Collingwood know how to improve players and slot them in to roles. Hes exactly what they need and they’ll spread money over the 4 years. They’re maximising their window.

    We might be able to get Mihocek with 2 but his body has been through the absolute wars.

    Assuming we can get Derksen and hopefully a back up ruck I’d rather back in our young guys. If that means living through more Melk and Petty then so be it but we don’t need short term stop gaps.

    I'll go against the flow and vote No. Consistent, strong, intelligent footballer but I think his best has already begun to slip down the wrong end of the bell curve, and he will be 33 next year. If he was 30-31 then yes.

    But I reckon it is all spin. His management fishing for more $ and they will probably get it. No way do the Pies move him on, with McStay being injury prone and no other big forwards emerging.

    Brisbane have other plans and Sydney might do as well if you believe the JUH rumours.

    Even the bottom 6 have at least one quality veteran.

    It’s really only us. I’m sure the Pies know it and are going to only offer what they need.

    Four years at the alleged coin for Silvagni is bizarre. I do think there’s a hint of psy ops being played here by Collingwood.

    I think they will slot hom at full back and it will work

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
