Pert and Roffey - The Review Thread
Iâve spotted her shopping at Yarraville Coles - if sheâs elitist, sheâs not doing a great job of it.

Pert and Roffey - The Review Thread
Were the players told?

Josh Daicos
Would remove us from the headlines for a few minutes at least

Pert and Roffey - The Review Thread
âI havenât spoken to Trac or his familyâ⊠well, we have our scapegoat now (if that is what we want).

Farewell Adam Tomlinson
The club hasnât yet offered him a contract, nor have they delisted him. I wonder if that is because theyâre waiting to see if they can land a key forward (which would send Petty back and result in Tommo being surplus to requirements) or if theyâre anticipating a trade with StK, helping them avoid diluting Battle compo

Pick 25 for McAdam
Plenty of example of plays like this that donât come off in year 1 but they settle and turn out ok.

How Many Weeks For Kozzy?
Do all high tackles/bumps that go to the tribunal get classified as ârough conductâ as Kozzieâs has?
-
Tom Lynch
Thatâs not true. I think a) the style of football that group was built to play is becoming less effective in the modern game and b) there are ENORMOUS question marks on whether the two most critical players in that mix will get back to anywhere near their best. Thatâs why Iâve given up on them. They need some help.

Tom Lynch
Youâve got your head in red-and-blue sand if you think we donât have significant issues in the middle of the ground.

If only Luke Jackson hadnât leftâŠ
Was playing his best footy - as were Freo - when he was rucking one-out with Darcy on the sidelines⊠was shocked they paired him with that no-name ruckman last night (although we should go after that no-name given the state of our back-up rucking situation)

If only Luke Jackson hadnât leftâŠ
Will be a very good player when the consistency comes but by then Windsor will be a star of the comp.

2024 22Under22
I reckon Tim Lamb would be quietly happy with this outcome.
-
Training Ground?
Weâd have 36 tall forwards on the list, weâd have KPIs centred around âkicking the bloody thingâ but there would be ongoing indecision about whether the coach is the right person for the job.

Kate Roffey
People who measure leadership by media presence are naive. Eddie McGuireâs loud mouth shouldnât be our benchmark for successful presidential leadership. There are a lot of complex things happening in our club right now. The Lawrence stuff, finding a home / lobbying for funding and all the player stuff weâre well aware of. I couldnât confidently say she is a good or bad leader but that is because a lot of those items are unresolved. Iâll judge her when those items are resolved OR if they arenât resolved soon. I wonât be judging her on how often I hear her voice.

Trade Targets
Lynch makes a lot of sense⊠huge money owed to him on a back-ended contract so weâd need to cough something decent up if we want them to help pay.

Greg Stafford departs Melbourne
Iâve read enough of Demonland to be CERTAIN that this development means our dynasty window has re-opened.
-
Graham Wright
Wright confirmed not returning to Collingwood. How long before the âWright IN, Richardson OUTâ chat begins?
-
Trade Targets
Humphrey had 8 touches at 50% yesterday. He looked very ordinary.

Dan Houston
Appears his poor-decision making isnât an isolated incident.

Jack Viney Extends Contract Until 2028
Jack: âdad, Timmy Lamb is low-balling me on a new deal⊠can you tell Clarko Iâm interested in bashing some heads in the midfield for you guysâŠ. A bit of media coverage should add a few bucks and another year onto my deal at the Deesâ

Jack Viney Extends Contract Until 2028
First Fly comments on trading in Petracca and now Clarko on trading in VineyâŠ. Since when was it ok for opposition coaches to comment on recruiting contacted players from other clubs mid season?
-
Greg Stafford
I agree they donât do those things, but the plan is NOT to do those thingsâŠ. I donât agree with that as a plan but he is coaching to plan is my argument. Iâm not close enough to it to understand if he is capable of coaching to a different plan but the fact he is one of few out of contract will probably mean he is sacrificed year-end regardless.
-
Greg Stafford
Not sure that is Staffordâs fault - Goodwinâs game plan is to create repeat contest deep-ish in F50, not attempt to create space.
