If a team had a gulf of half back flankers, Houston would be pretty handy on a wing, or on ball/half forward.He's a little bit more than that, in fact he's probably now our 2nd best player
Can't thank you guys enough
Why would you thank Carlton but. He didn't even nominate Carlton. Not even sure he was ever in their plans either.He's a little bit more than that, in fact he's probably now our 2nd best player

Hang on fatboy. I said he was a great pick up. Who said he was a dud ? Please send over that particular quote if and when you find it
Still going on about the past
In response to your reply to my initial post.
First off, where did I state that Collingwoods trade additions were to be disregarded? They were the 1st thing I addressed. You got a shiny new upgrade on Noble to Houston and added Perryman.
Is that enough for you to be better than Carlton in 2025? Don't think so. Brings you closer to our level, yes.
Next. Haynes replaced Marchbank. Both fringe. Not best 22 so no real impact there. Where did I mention Haynes would make us better? Didn't.
Shedding depth in the midfield.
What - Kennedy? Oh no! What do we do now we've lost MK. Noooooooooooo.
How about replacing him with a Sid Draper, Jagger Smith, FOS etc. You guys may not know these names. They are a little higher up the draft order than 50 odd.
You guys keep bringing up the 23 flag. We are talking about 2025. At that point it will be 2 years after your flag. Last I saw you were 9th.
"All of Collingwoods youngsters are duds?" Your words.
Tell me. Which of them are not duds? You know your players, yeah? Which of these future stars are going to shine? Is it Jack Bytel. Maybe Ed Allan? Of Ned Long. Soon to be household names across the country.
And it's not just the AFL articles questioning Collingwoods future, it's everyone, except you guys. You are the only ones with your head in the sand about it?
Anyway, proof will be in the pudding.

Another who can see into the future. Pity you can't see what's coming for you.
He would have given his left nut to get to Carlton
How good is Bagger logic.He's a little bit more than that, in fact he's probably now our 2nd best player
Can't thank you guys enough
Not said from you but a few of your mates.
It's like picking up Brian Lake. Master Stroke
Is Carlton cooking something up again?
No need for a crystall ball, Baggers are a broken record
Again reference to the past. Wow. You guys just don't get it do you. No. We're not cooking anything. This is not MKR. Sheesh. Like talking to a wall
Just trying to make a funny.
Ok. You've got rid of that great prospect. Still, no one's answered my question. Sell me! Which of your youngsters that you've kept or are getting (like Conlon
) will be your next stars?
Be better than this rubbish
"ordinary" - you really don't watch Carlton do you?How good is Bagger logic.
They dont want the back2back AA HBF (the best HB in the game) because they have a couple of ordinary half back flankers on their list already.
Like the Pies saying we dont want Weitering because we already have 2 or 3 key defenders.
Agree with that. Finally. Everything at this stage is pure speculation.
Our actions are not based on "desperation". Yours are! Your coach has come out and said it, not in those words, but your club's actions are based around "desperately" winning another flag before your troop of old men fall off the cliff.
It's apparently a great list management strategy to just throw two first round picks at any player regardless of positional need because they might make the team slightly better.
What numbers is he going to run. Has he got a crystal ball?
