Using the mid season draft to advance or back your argument isn’t really helpful. What it means is that a number of clubs have used that draft to satisfy their needs for the type of player who usually takes years to develop because they are loathe to take such players with valuable early national draft picks. It’s only the outstanding young ruck talents who get selected in the first round of the national draft. It remains to be seen whether Mac Andrew falls into that category.

Two Browns and two Smiths would be an interesting combination.

There’s something awfully wrong here. It smells of a cover up. Collingwood extended his contract last year and he’s on massive coin thanks to a heavily backended contract. His pay put him at the top of the pile at the club and he’s been a fine servant over the years. The messaging from the club to its player group and supporters is confounding and the repercussions could be massive in the future.

Except that we won’t be playing in the last week of September even if we make the finals because it’s the bye weekend.

Yet again, half of our side will be different. Also, the incentive to win is more than somewhat heightened compared to where we were at late last season.

As we move forward to the business end of the season, here’s some inspiration from Round 22, 1987 when the team had a famous victory to seal a place in the finals -

A very composed game from the youngster who is quietly having an excellent debut season. Is he in the mix for a Rising Star nomination?
