Roost it far

You could end up spot on and both Derksen and Jefferson will have long and successful careers. All I’m saying is that the odds are against Derksen and I don’t see it in Jefferson. I’d be stoked to be 100% wrong on both of them. Unfortunately for them I’m never wrong, maybe once but that was years ago.

All possible. For the record I’m not as bullish as others re: Jefferson either. Am I in trouble? 😂

No idea but the odds are he’ll be fringe at best.

Just because it’s a fact of life doesn’t mean you don’t push back against it. Disagreement’s aren’t the problem here. Just be kind…..

We had the chance to let Kowal go to WC and we would have got David Wirrapunda……we lost on that arrangement. That stains my thoughts on Kowal. Just noticed this has been said!

We’re not being singled out. We were simply providing the most clickable content at the time. This on top of the fact it’s believed we’ve underperformed which is hardly an outrageous claim. People need to get over this “the media only pick on poor old Melbourne”

As someone with knowledge of the countless unfixed and largely unfixable issues in apartments built in the last 10 years I sure hope your development is of better quality.

He’s a Red Bull Ambassador so has been heading there for the last few years. Let’s be honest Canberra or Austria? I know where I’m going! I was hoping Clarry would be joining him.

Cultural mentor……the less that is said the better!

The thing that worries me with these so called super drafts is in reality they only become super drafts 3-5 years down the track. There's been plenty of busts picked at 9. Whilst I trust JT to get them right we can ill afford to not nail the picks we get. There's no doubt 2, perhaps 3 standouts in the top 10 this year and I don't want Carlton taking the guy we're chasing. Twomey thinks we may try to trade our picks again, it's going to be interesting viewing that's for sure.

I don't think that's going to happen. I do think we'll see several changes over the next 12 - 24 months. Richardson, Pert, Green and likely several board members all possibly to be replaced.......total guess by the way.

Nothing would satisfy me more than watching Macrae leave Collingwood in tatters in 2 years with an old list, no youngsters and no first round picks, all the while we've gone all Baby Demons and won a flag.

Who do they want and is it the same player as us? I'd really hate to do all this trading and then watch Carlton trump us after watching Houston go to Collingwood.

Just to finish on: Demonland when discussing Clayton's contract.

There's always picks if you want them bad enough as we proved today.

If Stringer lands at GWS which seems more than likely does that open the door for Derksen or is it shut?

Still chasing at least 2 assistants, seems to have gone quiet lately. Jones probably taking the role Sloane was earmarked for? He's got passion that's for sure. Would be interesting to know what if any qualifications/experience he has aside from being our former Captain?

Do we have 49???

I can’t remember, the season is dead to me

Daisy Pearce will be half a chance to become an assistant then an AFL coach over the next few years

Once they turn 30 Collingwood will take them both.

Sounds like you've got a friend for your afternoon walks........Couldn't help myself :)
