How much is the Baggers digital membership? I've heard Collingwood's was $350 this year.

I bet they do considering they've been in no man's land for so long.

Is there anything we can do in a way that doesn't splatter us across the front of the newspapers at the moment? Anything at all?

On the flip side though if we were to lose Oliver, getting another potential Steven May for the next 10 years wouldn't be bad.

Well to be fair Collingwood aren't squeaky clean at the moment.

As mentioned in another thread, he's going to be a great get for whoever gets him. Has worn a few different hats in the governance and footy department side of things.

Yeah it's a tough one, one thing he does have is experience in a few off field roles. List management at Bris, assisting with the appointment of Kingsley at GWS etc. If there is a good fit for him I think he could offer a lot and that goes for anyone as I believe Collingwood are keen as well.

Exactly and Trac is also part of the ongoing exhaustion. Octoberitis is going to wear thin.

Where does it end? I want Clarry at Melbourne next season and beyond but it sure is exhausting going through this every year.

Trade radio just said to keep an eye on Jimmy Bartel and Melbourne.

Well that side of it doesn't surprise me Picket. He's exactly the type that they need and would be silly not to test it.

How about we line him up to throw tomatoes at him?

Preaching to the choir mate, I've only ever talked about needing better foot skill in the middle and agree. What I mean by good enough kick is someone that can hit a target 7 or 8 times out of 10. If the kids we choose have an elite kick that's a bonus but there's no point drafting someone with a suspect tank who will 9 possessions a game just because they have an elite kick. We've already got Spargo.

I would love someone to ask Kane point blank why exactly we should move heaven and earth to get him off our books. There have been a lot of implications made but right now at this point I want to hear his case. The people he is chatting with on these shows just take those implications and run with the narrative. My case right now is that I don't want to die wondering and give him the full pre season he deserves. There will be plenty of other years for the media to have a crack at this again, they're not gonna sell any less papers, subscriptions or clicks this year I promise.

I think this is just hack juice from McClure. It's all just he said she said.

Did we literally not just go through this?

Wow..

How is Ashcroft not 1?

Good bit of news to kick things off this off season.

Freo could go all in

So long Robbo, might start watching again.

And welcome to Brisbane land the no.1 kid in the country!

The MCG is 100,000. Checkmate.

I think you will see clubs move towards this model and also start to favour the experience.

Not as a direct replacement for McQualter. Goodwin needs a right hand who sees the game from the box and relays back to him quickly, a lot of trust is put in that relationship. At least a bit of experience knowing how things work in a coaches box is preferable in my opinion. If he's coming on as a backgrounder then all for it but for this particular role I don't think you can be fresh off the boat.
