Peak Barrett in his "sliding doors" after spending the best part of half a decade questioning Mitchell and his impact he's suddenly a brilliant player and Collingwood are masters of the trade period.
I thought I’d have a look at his article to see if that was what would happen and I wasn’t disappointed. 😂

Collingwood win 2 out of every 3 trade periods and have an amazing solitary flag in the last 32 years to show for it!

Does anyone have the print from Herald Sun article? - "Clarkson mistakes which left Mitchell with mess to clean up"

Came in to say exactly this. He's a now brilliant clearance player (which is why our centre clearance rates were so high these last few seasons). And despite every single journo tipping us to finish last this season, if we do it now we're tanking (and yet still certainties to finish last).

It kind of reminds me of the narrative during the three-peat that we were a team of hacks that were made to look good by having just a few stars in the side, but none of those few stars were actually any good because they were being made to look good by the other players.
 
Interestingly or not, my youtube 'recommendations' sometimes throw up some old clips...and this one just came up from 2020.


Although he never reached his younger potential, I'd say the best person and leader at the club.

Drove the standards and all the younger players looked up to him. Just a great role model, conducted himself magnificently. Respected by all.

He became the man he is today with us.

Melbourne media piled onto him his entire time with us, then when he leaves they love him.

In my uneducated opinion I've bolded who I think. Stephens' Geelong highlights are really impressive.
Needs to get a bit more penetration with his kicks I reckon, some of them were a bit cute to work for our setup I think. But yeah, looks quick-thinking and creative.

That's two in 63 years.

Only one more than St Kilda.

Just to put things in perspective.
 
Tyler Keitel - the more I read up on this guy the more I am wondering if he might be worth a mature aged rookie spot. 26 so maybe not the best age profile for us - but can mark it and can find the goals, particularly a good long range one. Granted these are all highlights so won't show his deficiencies but he seems to be good overhead and can find a lead as well. Not many highlights of him taking a good pack mark so who knows what he is like with pressure and an AFL level defender who will obviously wear him down more than a WAFL level one. However - with a big body and the ability to slot them from long range he would potentially be a good foil for Lewis and allow him to avoid being monstered in a double team by the two best defenders each time he plays. Happy to stand corrected from those who keenly watch the WAFL.




 
Are Mitchell.S and Saunders still uncontracted, i think 1 will stay and 1 will go.

So far the only delisted players id like us to consider is Stocker * Blues, Poulter *Pies, Smith *lions.
 
I don't think Rob's very good at this, just let Sam take the airwaves from here on.
Apparently Jaeger is fine, Yea after been told he can GO by the senior coach, and after he swiped the tears.
Thought he spoke really well tbh. Kane wanted to smash the clubs approach with every question and he had an appropriate response for each.
 
Talented he may be. But do we need the off-field angst that may also come with him?
- Richmond and Adelaide, Regarding Tyson Stengle

You take DFA punts on talent, it's low risk and a new environment could do wonders. Worst case, he doesn't make it and we don't renew his contract. If you're bringing DFAs in, you're backing your development team and club culture, which it seems like Sam does.

Someone here yesterday posted that he had a bad attitude towards training. Not sure Stengle ever had that knock. Sam wants blokes who are hard workers.
