List Mgmt. COLLINGWOOD Trade and F/A Discussion 2022--> PART 2

*Bagging

Banging is much more humorous. Although Dan might have to file a police report if so many people are banging him. That can’t be all consensual.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Then we should have kept Grundy.... if we think we're challenging.

We challenged this year without him. The flag was won with a journeyman ruckman, and the swans had an even more travelled journeyman. The decision was made that we needed to fix other weaknesses in the list. Argue till the cows come if that’s the right call….. but either way it doesn’t mean they aren’t aiming to win the flag this year.

5th - Geelong food scene

6th- Geelong waterfront tours

7th - day trips to Portarlington

8th - pedalo boats in Corio Bay

9th - I'm stumped - what else is in/around Geelong?

10. Miss my mommy

 

[Apex36]

1 Make sure Henry doesn't leave by securing his contract before McStay.
2 If not McStay, one of Weideman, Schache, etc. Preferably Weideman.

Those were other options.

We were never getting his signature, regardless of money, position in the 22 etc. He was hellbent on going to Geelong and playing with his brother, everything else was just excuses made to justify his move because he knew that he was being pissweak.

11. Can’t get a game for Collingwood but I’ve been promised I’ll be in the seniors at Geelong every week

Seniors at Geelong Football League?

 

[Gone Critical]

So unsubtle Dino. I expected better from you. Vicky Park needs to go passive aggressive on the Cat bstard. There will surely be a meal or two in VP’s repertoire that he doesn’t like. A few nights on his non-preferred rations and he will work it out. And VP can just go “who, me?” if the clown is dumb enough to actually ask what is going on.

Edit: and if he doesn’t clue in, take it to the next level by inviting ppl around for dinner. Ppl he doesn’t like.

[Gone Critical]

If we're thinking medium to long term, does that mean we have given up a crack at the flag next year? Sounds like it. Probably a good decision, but makes a joke out of bringing in Mitchell and not trading out some older players.

No on the contrary. Fly and the coaching group went older and experienced with the 22 this year and sounds like we are doubling down on that in 23 because they are having a tilt. Add McStay and Mitchell, who seem certainties for the 22, and we strip one of the older 22s in the comp next year. Doubt the younger part of the list are getting much of a look in next year if we stay injury free.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Seniors at Geelong Football League?

No… AFL….. but promises can be broken….

 

[Bramax]

Henry was always leaving. The contract was just his first attempt at finding an excuse. Game time was his second. Homesickness third and brotherly love fourth.

I suspect he may have been given some tough love by Fly during the second half of the season too. After explaining what he needs to do get back in the team (incl the flaws in his game he needs to address), Ollie may have dropped his bundle.

No ticker.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

On a side note, Jordy must be relieved he didn't accept St Kilda's offer..

He was never going to.

 

[KillerMagpies]

I would have him over Poulter.


We also have Jetta, Leon and Krak to provide support.

But maybe Stack doesn’t want a career etc might prefer playing local footy with less pressure and demands

A la Phil Inn.

[Big Bryza]

So Matt Rendell reckons we lost this trade period. Anyone shocked?

He sounds like the old guy who sits in the corner of the pub, just yelling out random shit.

 

[manicpie]

*Bagging

Lol, that sounds better than banging him

 

[sideswipe]

I like this. He’s getting the silent treatment ATM, but I’m planning on upping the ante. Might ask one of his five sisters over. They are all older than him and (I think) tortured him as a child. Might help to explain some of his poor behaviour.

Five older sisters is a tough beat. You ever caught him wearing your clothes? You can bet he did his fair share of being dressed up as a chick.

Lamby's?

 

[Big Bryza]

Lol the SEN review of our period is farcical
Mcstay and Hill not in our best side?
Lol who writes this s**t?

McStay was targeted to play in our best side lacking key forward players.

Hill not on our best side?
We only chased him for 2 years running…purely because we want him to play in our VFL side…

Seriously….how some of these guys have jobs in the media is mind boggling.

Create hysteria around Collingwood = clicks = Fat Hutchy filling his wallet.

 

[Big Bryza]

This is starting to give me the shits now going around the same ******* merry-go-round over and over again.

Just to be clear we can't afford to be pushing Moore into the ruck, McStay is not a full time ruck option even if we could afford to be pulling him out of the CHF spot we specifically grabbed him to fill, and none of the other names you all keep putting forward are anything close to AFL standard rucks.

IIt's like your all so excited at getting rid of Grundy's salary that you think we could throw anyone in the ruck if needs be and it wouldn't matter.

Let's just hope Cameron and Cox do stay upright, because it might end up being a very different reality if they are both missing for any extended period of time.

Yep and if Gawn and Grundy get injured, then the Dees are farked.

 

[Big Bryza]

1 Make sure Henry doesn't leave by securing his contract before McStay.
2 If not McStay, one of Weideman, Schache, etc. Preferably Weideman.

2 duds.

McStay is an AFL standard player. Weid and Schac are certainly not.

 

[cityslick1]

If we're thinking medium to long term, does that mean we have given up a crack at the flag next year? Sounds like it. Probably a good decision, but makes a joke out of bringing in Mitchell and not trading out some older players.

No. List managers are always thinking a couple of years ahead, and getting out of shitty long term contracts is the only way we’ll be able to afford and lure players like Ben King or Ben McKay next year.

We’ve improved our list vs last year also, so not sure how that is giving up on next years flag.

Don’t listen to people saying we have traded out a current star in Grundy… those people have not been following his recent games closely. And Henry wasn’t even a starting 22 player next year, and he knew it. It’s only the later years that his leaving may haunt us

 

[Vicky Park]

Lamby's?

No, I’m more boring than that. I literally like to stand outside and admire the old wool stores, or go inside if they are museums or galleries. I lead a very limited life.

But Lamby’s looks interesting. What’s it like? If Ollie goes there I could accidentally on purpose spill some wine on him.

10th - visits to the heritage listed historic wool stores (at least that’s what I do when I’m in Geelong)

The real reason Ollie had to go back to Geelong.
The fairy park in Anakie. Only 25 minute drive from Geelong, but an awfully tiresome 80 minute drive from Melbourne.

Fairy Park is set in the beautiful open rolling countryside west of Melbourne on top of a spectacular granite outcrop born of prehistoric volcanic activity.

I haven't been there for thirty years. So, my opinion isn't reliable. Those buildings though always sort of fascinated me although they were pretty drab n my time

I used to share a house with a bloke whose father built that place. He probably owns it these days. I doubt if Ollie would feel safe in Anakie. The Anakie boys were pretty rough and ready
