Any suggestions?

Didn’t he just sign a contract extension a few months ago until 2027?

or target the best available, which in the absence of other names, could well be Darren Burgess.

Or, target a known entity, while moving on most of the injury prone

Looking at the likes of Burgess isn't a messiah move with the talent on our list

Yes.
How rubbish likes this makes the no discussion thread is telling.

 

[Beyond Blue]

But,but... he's not leaving Adelaide if you believe MR?

If Riccuitto wasn’t a footballer he’d almost certainly be a bikie. I don’t believe a word that comes out of his mouth.

 

[LanceRomance]

That statement by Petracca is a load of fluff. It really looks like Melbourne are in disarray.


Also, to those people wanting to trade williams. Have a good look at yourself.

Any time we get the highest profile person possible many will take it as a messiah move.

I won't believe anything is a messiah move until such a point as they're given the type of power our previous messiahs have been - answerable to themselves.

As long as there are checks and balances in process get the best person possible.

 

[The Bighouse]

MFC should try for an ESS trade.
Nate Caddy + Ben Hobbs &
R1 ‘24 + ‘25.

Totally agree with there being a problem with some players that no one could fix, but my comment is not really a reflection on trying to find someone to 'fix' our problems. It's just that more generally in the performance space, I worry about really entrenched people not keeping up to date or being able to change their approach. I like what the Pies did.

 

[Bundy Bear Bogan]

From an irony standpoint would be funny if we did end up with Stringer. If not for Essendon,both times, we would've had both Saad and Stringer.

Don't even go there, Wic

 

[Bundy Bear Bogan]

And could go into centre bounces at times unlike Owies & Motlop.

Motlop is very disappointing!

I agree Motlop has been disappointing but he's had a interrupted season .
When he has a full preseason and no injuries then I think we see a Motlop that we love, but any hiccup and his season is crap

reckon Mots spent too much time in the gym in the off season.

looks way too bulky.... and, as a result, slow.

Had a chaotic weekend and just saw Christian's statement.

Is that all done now or do we think it's just lip service and he'll still try and work his way out?

12 months time is a more realistic possibility if they don’t get things right, clubs will have the option to trade extra future draft picks etc

It's an interesting one. 12 months obviously makes him a year older but everyone will then see how he bounces back.

If it's not happening now, I probably wouldn't bother with it at all.

Considering Pavlich is still going, I'd say this still has some legs yet

Yes, but I think it might bring Pies into the picture, given their older brigade (with retirements and subsequent salary cap space), plus have some draft picks to use from 2025 as well. I don't think speculation will go away unless there are some other changes at the Dees...

I'm not worried about Collingwood moving forward in the immediate future.

As you say, the old players will retire - they really don't have that much top end talent coming through. Adding Petracca doesn't help them that much.

They may play finals next year but they won't threaten a premiership again in the next 3-5 years in my opinion.

Literally executives at listed companies.

Public servants too

Hopefully collingwood won't threaten for 50 years

Exactly. Listening to Tom Morris this morning it sounded like Trac was wanting Collingwood. The Blues wont even be in the equation at the end of next season in regards to Trac, hopefully with TDK,Weiters and Co committing to the Blues. Better for us moving forward to #17.
