Dawn of a new Era - Paul Guerra article 18.10.2025
Zero Hanger have us in the bottom 2 next season because of the loss of Clarry and Trac, and even McVee. I can't imagine we'll be bottom 2... Zero HangerCollingwood gun in AA contention after absence, Melbourne...An early look at some of the big tales that could unfold next year.

I think he could have an A grade ceiling at half back...

Welcome to Demonland: Picks 7 & 8
If we did this deal, it'd tell us very clearly what JT thinks of this draft crop, and potentially what he thinks about the next. When we traded out of this year's draft last year, we also would have been aware of the likelihood of Trac requesting a trade again this year (despite pizzas) and would have planned to get back into this year's first round via picks from Trac. This sort of planning would almost certainly be done.

So he's changed his stance.

As a mid or a half back? I hope you're right.

They definitely could be, but I still think we need more. I think Turner could be A grade, Kozzy is A grade, depending on how long Max stays around, he's A grade. So there's 5 guys. I hope Windsor keeps developing. I'm not sure where his ceiling is though. Max won't be around for much longer, but I'm still hopeful 2027 is a finals year for us.

Training Ground?
I know it's dealing with the Glen Eira Council who are notoriously slow, however if the state government are involved, I would expect planning to not suffer the same hurdles as you, and thus be expedited.

Just my opinion of course...

Farewell Christian Petracca
Well, Max hopes Clarry can win a Brownlow next year. He said no such thing about Trac...

Welcome to Demonland: Picks 7 & 8
I agree. So we either go Humphrey again next year or hope we can land one with our two first rounders next year. I actually think we're two A graders short. But anyway, time will tell.

I'm not convinced there's a superstar in this draft anyway. I think we'll get two very good players from the top 10 that will make us better, but there's no Oliver 2015 or Trac 2014 in this draft that I can see. You could see them ooze class and contested ability at underage level. There's no one of that calibre this year. The club have intimated as much previously and even looking at the recruiting videos of last year's crop, there's no one that gets close to say Xavier Lindsay from this year's class.

I'd be going Dovaston, Lindsay and somehow Pickett.

He's the one I want in our forward pocket next year.

I don't get Clarry at all. I get Jarrod Berry if anything.

That's Barnahy Joyce isn't it?
