If he takes a year off, maybe Home Brand can sponsor him?

Bingo haha. The topic isn't funny, but well, it was an obvious direction the media would take it.

While we wait, (EDIT: ITS PAYWALLED FOR ME) I've seen "neutrals" ie axe-to-grind Collingwood fans, mention that Petracca should take us to the grievance council to force a trade, because of the handling of his injury. In the way Paddy Ryder did (Or threatened to do?) I'm going to guess that maybe some of these journo's have been reading these opinions and it's going to be the next topic in the media cycle.

We're becoming Brand Petracca. Maybe an official name change as well?

5 of them?

They're taking a short break from reading demonland

you forgot the arm sleeve of tats

Yup. I recall people potting the Melksham trade for the 2nd rounder we gave up. After a season there were still some questions. Then in 2018 he then became one of our most important players. That was the year he led the competition in goal assists. x4 his output from the year before. 22 to 32 goals. He's also gone from "lazy and half hearted footballer' to a mature leader and an important player

A suppository of all wisdom

Re Time to decide: Goody or Tracc These kinds of ultimatums just end up destroying everything ie the fabric of the club. Goodwin goes, many players unhappy, club radically alters with new coach, new timeline/window Tracc will leave the year after anyway, or maybe other some important players. Same position we're in now. Tracc goes, many players unhappy. club radically alters with new players, new timeline/window . Goodwin will be sacked anyway, and we'll lose a few more players. Same position we're in now Same end point, different scenario's. Hopefully things are healed and we see tracc and Goodwin in the red and blue next year.

Other cheaters? Paper baggers, Dopers, Real Estate Cap Cheats etc

Although he's the best in the business for goal assists/involvements. Maybe we can trade him for a player who's also in that category. Gryan Miers and a couple of firsts?

I want the crowds, I want the big crowds...

its a trap! We'll end up with Brendan Bolton and Adam Cerra and #11 & #F18

7 years to go

I've long suspected that Picket Fence is Mathew Jefferson

I can't believe that got through the [censored] filter

Was this the 'There is one player who never comes over to the cheer squad and says hello and is friendly with fans" topic I recall reading? A few of us guessed Clarry, and some others, and you said Clarry was the opposite: always friendly and willing to chat. Maybe it was Tracc eh? If you don't want to answer, thats fine. Because it's still public.. This is getting a bit New Ideas gossip raggy now, haha sorry.

Would Crisp breaking Jimmys games played in a row record in Dees colours, be significant renumeration for WCW? @WalkingCivilWar Apologies !!

Future sorry*

Hello there Demonlanders. I'm here to collect all of your vomit and anger emoji's. Could Jordan De Goey be a potential trade target? He's actually the 2nd best finals performer in the last 5-6 years below Dusty. 5 or 6 Finals BOG's According to Daniel Hoyne of CD. He would slot instantly into the role that Tracc vacates, and we'd also get their edit: future first and 2nd round picks. They were taken in the same draft all those years ago, and have had interestingly similar career arcs up. I recall in 2017-2018, we were all wondering when Tracc would take the next step, while JDG was actually having some huge finals games in their series that led them into the GF against West Coast, and last year he had a big finals series again. Until Tracc reached his stardom in 2021, it seems that has all been forgotten about and he's gone way beyond JDG as a consistent performer year to year with his 4 AA's and Norm. However JDG's upside is still at the level of a Dusty type player that can step up when it counts. Has JDG reached his peak already and its only down from here, is a biggest question to ask though, does he have the motivation to become a big game performer for the Dees? Of course, the cultural question is the biggest one there is, which ive avoided up until now. But well, our club is hardly one to preach about that. DL, thoughts? PS: I've actually seen quite a few Collingwood people propose this, so I think it begs the discussion at least. Don't hate me.

Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy. but when he squeezed me tight he nearly broke my spine Oh my Lalor La-la-la-la Lalor

Matt Owies suspended for a week and will miss their finals campaign. Still unsigned. 27 goals last year, 33 this year. Worth a look? Could give us more scope for Kozi, Tholstrup, Sparrow to rotate into the middle more often.

Either him or Max King, and a first round pick. Their fans are all pretty annoyed at the idea of losing a draft pick as well for a 29 year old !
