Maybe he was wanting a firm commitment from the club to implement some changes rather than just lip service before he said he was staying (that would make sense to me) What doesn’t make sense is for this statement of commitment to be made now when we are still weeks away from the trade period

Why not the victim card seems useful these days for garnering support and followers on social media

Casey were pretty poor all year and most games the ball was parked in their D50 for the majority of the game The fact he rarely if ever got into double figures in the possession count is pretty damming imo Hopefully he has a big pre season and builds some strength and confidence because both seem to be lacking at this stage

Well deserved Max - a tower of strength (literally) for this great club The thing that opposition supporters seem to forget is that all teams try to physically beat Max up every game with borderline legal tactics. The great man just keeps going about his business without complaining or whining. The best ruck in the competition by some margin and his 7th AA says it all

What’s its say I’m not paying for their trash 😂

Seems like only yesterday Dan Houston was leaving port but the media seem to have got that very wrong - does happen regularly

Could be wrong but my interpretation of Tacs silence is that he has some genuine concerns of which some it seems are shared by the club captain (not all though) He is waiting for them to either take some meaningful action to address these issues If they don’t perhaps he will than publicly state he wants to be traded and then I suspect we will be told the nature of his grievances I don’t agree with his tactics if this is true but the fact that Max also seems to think changes need to be made says to me that something needs to be addressed and quickly

Nope

Personally I just don’t need any more reasons to absolutely hate Collingwood but here we are yet another one

The way we are travelling atm our F1 will be pick 1 so its a no from me

If all these rumours are true my question would be is there a head big enough ?

So absolutely no F50 pressure then - feels like a good way to start the season - sorry but I’m just a bit jaded by the AFL and certain events atm

Congrats to Jesse still a favourite as is Toby Will be there supporting them against the swans in their first final

Well I’ll give them credit for not stooping that low

Its not

Say what 🙀 Not a fan of either but Craig Foster and Peter Fitzsimmons seem to do ok out of daily dribble

You may be right and I hope for his sake and the clubs he starts to blossom next season.

Tend to agree with this - we have struggled to recruit a genuine tall forward that can compete and score goals consistently - and nothing has changed unfortunately. We have tried to recycle tall defenders with some success, but I think most believe that is not the solution longer term. Fritta is one of the competitions best forwards when the forward 50 has space and the delivery into him is good. Our game style seems dependent on crowding the field including the forward 50 and our midfielders are some of the worst kicks in the competition. For him to get back to his we need to tweak our F50 structure and get some players capable of delivering the ball fast and with precision.

If you compare him to Nate Caddy who has spent 1 year less in the AFL system you would be concerned. Caddy already shows great potential in the AFL. Too early to call bust but would need to show way more next season

So fatty footballers 🤔

Careful with facts and rational thought process it’s not in style atm

Is that the same Rachele who’s been dumped for repeatedly not adhering to team first values ? Didn’t think we were needing that sort of contribution

Petracca , Oliver, Sparrow all missing maybe explains why McVee is doing midfield time don’t you think ? We have no depth in that part of the ground and even our main starters have poor kicking skills It should be our key focus during the draft period and trading

LOL how utterly pathetic

Sorry your feelings are hurt petal but I’ll stick by our leading goal kicker for the last 4 years even if he is having a bad day Anyone who wants to trade him when we have few genuine forwards has rocks in their heads
