CASEY: Grand Final vs Southport
And we would avoid the huge risk that Grundy is. I'd rather use all the money to go all in for Harry McKay.

FINALS 2022: Week 03
And he won't have in the future, I have the feeling this Collingwood team will digress/Plateau next year. Hopefully they also will have to keep carrying Grundy's contract

Clayton Oliver now 2022 Brownlow favourite?
Trust me Rd23 will decide it for Clarry. Neale 0 votes, Oliver 2 votes
- If not us, then..?
- Oliver's fault he was gouged in the eye

Farewell Brodie Grundy
Because Salem and others were 'untouchable'. One of the worst things this season was our coaching staff seemingly rewarding players down on form or hampered with injuries based on their 2021 output.

Trade and Free Agency rumours
It looks like many second and third year players are leaving their clubs. I sometimes wonder, what's the point of the draft then? You invest in a prospect, develop that prospect only to lose it to an interstate competitor? It really sucks to lose Jackson at age 21,; if you ask me, it can't be good for the league What if we lose a flag playing against the team that poached a potential star like Jackson? In our case we took the risk with Jackson and now another team will reap the rewards of having Jackson on their list.

Farewell Luke Jackson
I guess it's not always the same ... You'd have to look at the context of the situation to be able to determine when a player has done wrong by the club. I believe the issue with Jackson is that we drafted him and it's been just 3 years, hard not to feel angry about the situation

Trade and Free Agency rumours
One really annoying and IMO unfair thing is this AFL's draft system. Specially when I look at th NBA's or NFL's systems. Like this example, top talent is drafted by a club and the only guarantee you have is the initial 2 year contract? That's a load of crap for mine! (just like what we are experiencing with Jackson) What's the point of having good draft picks? Can't we have at least 5 years guaranteed for round 1 picks? Meanwhile the Cats can poach talent from around the league as they please... 🤮🤮

Farewell Luke Jackson
Grundy is a big risk, and we would be doing a favour to the filth. Wouldn't it be better to transform Weideman into the second ruckman? Use the assets we get from LJ to look for some other much needed positions? Say a CHF or small forward?

Finals 2022: Week 02
Hunt to the wing? Between Langdon and Hunt we should be pretty quick and explosive on the outside. Use Bowey as a link as well, Trac is explosive from the middle of the ground and kozzy plus Bedford in HF

Finals 2022: Week 02
He's got a defensive mindset, kick to a packed pocket so there is less of a chance for opposition to hurt you with turnovers

Membership Tally 2022
It may be a slow start but I hope and expect that if the team shows the high level intensity from 2021 and we have a good start of the season, supporters will come and join!
