    I am going to try and stay out of this thread because reading some of the frankly ridiculous comments (we must act! he has to prove he want to stay! he needs to sign! yes he is gun, but we could trade in another gun! we don't need him! i'm not saying we SHOULD trade him, but if he wants to go home! etc etc) does my head in. The thread keeps popping up in the recent posts function and like a fool i can't help but to look. 

    But its not all silly posts. This being a good example of a rational, logical one. Leaving aside the fact Jessie is incredibly unlikely to want to leave a club on the brink of a sustained period of finals success for one who is on the complete opposite trajectory (and he would have agree to a trade of course) the club has been shouting from the roof tops about building a team first, 22 brothers running out together , fully connected, group love culture.

    For pete's sake it recently became public that our motto this year is one borrowed form the great Norm Smith - Esprit de corps.

    Why on god's good earth would the the club risk that culture by putting any pressure on Jessie or considering trading him. I mean please. He is a loved team member who the club has nurtured and looked after during incredible personal issues. One of the brothers. Been at the club since he was 17 years old. The MFC is his his extended .Goody won't have it. And thank go for that.

    What about trading Weed instead (jokes)?

    succinct bin. and with that post your crystallised my feelings. i henceforth state i will never enter this bucket of turd again.

    Very poor weather here in Collingwood (I work about 1.5km from the G). Pouring rain. Grey skies.

    Sadly this should favour Hawthorn. 

    how so? surely tigers smalls and the pressure the general team provides would win out against the foot skills & two rucks that the hawks have?

    At the very least, i like the sound of a " Peter Jackson Boardroom" or something like that.

    If it gets up he deserves a permanent mention somewhere in the building.

    orrr, the club could launch a new range of smokes? 'pj premiership edition'. all funds raised going to building toilets next to the new training ground so that the players no longer need to defecate in the long grass of gosch's. lol.

  4. don't listen to the footy stuff on the radio (already being on here is enough and my girlfriend would leave me if i started blaring that [censored] in the car), but i do tune in to afl 360 on occassion and he seems ok. lots more way annoying commentators than him. he's at least intelligent.

    If I'm one of those players that answer doesn't cut it for me.

    have you heard tom interviewed? he'll play anywhere the team needs him. we are fine to move forward with these three forwards. sam is still learning and as others have said, injuries and form issues can arise. they can look for other opportunities and we can be concerned about retention after our second or third flag. which other team would they want to play for? its clear that MFC has the best chance of all clubs to dominate the comp in the coming years. they should be lucky to be with us (just as we're lucky to have them).

    Still flies under the radar for opposition supporters    They all know big Max   but no idea of Clayton Oliver.

    Will be  No 1 in the league next year    Go Dees !!

    my essendon 'mate' hates him. reckons he's super over-rated and just racks up the possies with rubbish handballs. says that his kicking leaves a lot to be desired. i just laugh. i've about given up sending him highlights packages of him. just keep asking him how parish is going. LOL.

    i'd go for Brayshaw. Love his passion and love for the Dees, on top of his obvious talent. He's great to listen to on the AFL Exchange podcast too. Loved attending a training sesh at Gosch's a few years ago and seeing him kick a banana from the boundary before falling back (opposite of face plant style) in the deciduous leaves that had gathered around him. Angus is mah boy!

    This topic seems oh so simple, but who do we like? As a drunk 36 year old sitting at a pub in Amsterdam, I was perusing DL and realised I hadn't seen such a topic. Basically, who's ya boy? Who's jumper number would you get on your back after a 2018 flag?

  9. geez the players looking to move from their current clubs would be finding the dees game style pretty damn exciting! i reckon the recruitment team have a few surprises for us all over the next few months.. as we don't have much to trade with, it could centre around a 3 or 4-way complicated trade situation with lower picks for draft points, etc..

    I said a couple of weeks a fanatical bulldogs mate of mine reckons they’re tanking for the no.4 draft pick. Certainly looks that way! However they have had a few crucial injuries since the Cats game also

    we need a headshake emoji.. NO WAY this is happening. 

  11. just did the ladder predictor for the last four rounds...after a few glasses of talisker single malt. GREAT NEWS! we won't lose a game for the rest of the year *insert excitement emoji* i also found that i cannot tip against richmond and essendon seem to have momentum with them at the moment.. my ladder has richmond taking first spot by 3 games and essendon winning but still missing finals on percentage ([censored] me i would crack up if that happened).

    Rest: Hogan

    In: Weid or Bull, both been good at VFL level, don’t think Pedo has he’s been playing as a defender the last 4 weeks

    Id want Keilty to play too but it ain’t gonna happen

    hogan definitely needs a rest. and maybe petracca too, but less so?.. fingers crossed trac's shoulder is ok. next cabs off the rank should be tim smith to play petracca's role and i'd be happy with either sammy or pedo to replace hoges. i am pretty sure pedo won't have forgotten how to clunk those forward 50 marks ?Â
