And he played like it.

By the way, is it now permissible to approach in-contract players in season?

Sullivan and Richards are both better than Berry so not sure why they want him.

Maybe they think their development programs would benefit him

Fair chance it is. Berry is a player I wouldn't be too upset about losing though.

No. No it is not.
That would be an interesting development.

You can't approach players but you can then approach their managers to express interest. His manager can relay that interest to him and then he can make "first contact"

I’m just suspicious about our development

 

[fuic08]

I’m just suspicious about our development

I'm suspicious about the whole club.

The rumour though was Berry met directly with Collingwood

 

[spenze]

The rumour though was Berry met directly with Collingwood

Yep and if he initiated the contact, all good.

Honestly, I don't see why that rule is in play in the first place, there is no way you can think we hadn't met with Dawss or Ranks before the end of the season.

That doesn't make sense. Surely, the rule would be to "protect" the club, not the player. As Beveridge would say, "disgusting"!

Has been for years.
Who was the player who toured the Collingwood facilities while under contract?

 

[Kenny Dee]

Hope the next rumour I see Is the board was seen to be having a meeting and Nix will be announced as sacked tomorrow

Lin Jong?

 

[chazwazza]

Lin Jong?

That’s it, thought it was an Asian player

Best friend being Eddie McGuires son might have something to do with it

Man Berry is hot or cold - plays like a possessed demon one week then like my 12 year old niece the next, probably a good move if he wants to go home not a crucial cog to our malfunctioning machine.

I love the romance of Keane - Irish boy done good blah blah blah but if he’s keen to go move him on.

We obviously need to draft a young ruckman at the tail end to actually develop him.

[Gets!]

Marvel Berry and AO Berry are two different players.

Is he the sook that shut down his account for a week when he received all the hate he had been spewing?

Tom Morris this morning re: Oliver

“He’s got six years left. Which club has the space and who could fit this bill? I really think the Adelaide conversation is outdated. I don’t think the Crows are in this at all. They can’t afford him and they don’t necessarily want him for that price.

Can’t afford him? Wtf are we doing

Well the robs and the Murphys of the world aren’t going to pay themselves

Tbh it’s Tom morris! Does he even know what he is talking about?

True, but surely he’s saying it for a reason. I just can’t fathom how it’s even plausible
