  1. monday morning @ whitten oval
  2. do you just intentionally misspell their names?
  3. absolute star, when he grew the hair and beard out, had to rep him
  4. grundy had a poor year based on his extremely lofty standards and was still top 3 rucks in the comp last season, collingwood will definitely not regret their decision at all. and you reward your captain for their importance to the club as a whole and the extra work they put in off field to lead and create culture and represent the club? how can you not understand any of that
  5. this, and also he's a 30yo on a list clearly bottoming out and would just hold back younger types if he stuck around any longer could be a gun, could be another nietschke hardly a comparison to us and majak. one club wants to play september the other is at the beginning of a rebuild
  6. it's not really great list management really, the competition average every single season is 8 per team add in the shrinking list and it's just standard procedure

    mckay rolled an anke tonight, curnow LTI, mcgovern injured, casboult injured, TDK injured, he'll do a year of insurance and then i'd imagine make way
  8. Round 1 ? it in? Lever 8 May 1 Hibberd 14 Hunt 29 Tomlinson 20 Rivers 24 Langdon 15 Brayshaw 10 Harmes 4 Fritsch 31 McDonald 25 Sparrow 32 Pickett 36 Jackson 6 Spargo 9 Gawn 11 Oliver 13 Petracca 5 Chandler 37 Jordon 23 Jones 2 Salem 3

    no - cal moore of richmond previously and carlton listed in '20 is also training on and named on the I/C tonight. another tall type
  10. everyone's so reactionary, just let it play out. this thread has now ruled out Daw, Kobe thread has a line through him and not a single person has any credible source. the only way to look at it is that we have 4 available slots and no one has been turned down yet so they're all still a chance

    i think it's recorded way earlier in the week hence why last year they had to delay an ep when they broke josh wagner getting picked but had to wait for team announcement
  12. maybe true but its inevitable he starts the season in
  13. based on? half as good as a 5 game player? sheesh
  14. Pickett and Brayshaw are comfortably best 22, theres no way to spin that. why would you not want our best players playing if they're available that's enough to win our club goalkicking in the last two seasons, seems pretty unfair
  15. he wanted to cross the border? and we offered him more than others to convince him to join us ahead of a queue of suitors
  16. that screams i played most-every game and therefore accumulated votes on merit without actually doing anything of note from friday's side to round 1 i suspect it will be OUT: Baker, Jetta, ANB IN: Brayshaw, Hibberd, Pickett and jones for viney the following week or maybe an underwhelming chandler? which would be disappointing imo
  17. whilst the nab league has gone to 19yo's im not sure if it affects the academies and nga tied-ness of "mature" players? happy to be corrected if anyone has an official source saying otherwise but thats my understanding. is it just is raised to allow exposure to players who didnt get any
  18. this couldn't be more obvious right now than at NM, will phillips everyone expected to walk in and deliver in their midfield instead Powell, Lozarro and Ford were picked ahead and spicer is equally in the mix as new draftees
  19. maybe not a cut but definitely front loaded i'd imagine given the OOC players in the future they'd be absorbing more now while clarry/trac/salo and the younger boys are on smaller deals
  20. lockhart took 12 days ?‍♂️
  21. was it not this time last year where we were screaming out for anyone under 180cm to do something in the forward half? and now you're complaining that we've looked at too many? a non t.mcdonald need. whether we intended to use him on a wing but the lack of KF means he's there now so we need someone for the near side with tomlinson going back is the case? or as a backup to lever as an interceptor without hore? who knows but i think it's a good sized addition to the list
  22. false, the SSP thread said 6 (not sure how accurate) but richmond had 5 when mansell, egg, josh green and gallucci and the other lad whose name escapes me were all training

    vanders is a btec viney and we missed he/brayshaw more than vanders as inside mids as they offer more with ball in hand whilst also having his attack on the ball, particularly JV tim lamb was adamant we would take a pick to the MSD given covid affected season in vic and the tendency for top players to come from obscurity in their 18th year. David Noble was also on and he said north didn't even bother with trainon players and will take their spot to the MSD where theyd get you'd imagine 1st/2nd crack
  24. club would be pleased* to some extent that they haven't had to pay out on some of the bonuses he would have had in initial deal around BnF/AA but at the same time probably would have liked him to have hit them coz that means it was a good signing.
  25. when zac langdon now of WCE formerly of GWS was first drafted he was Zac Giles-Langdon and Kozzy pickett is actually kropinyeri-pickett its interesting how some players drop half the name and others don't, doesnt really make sense why you would right?
