List Mgmt. COLLINGWOOD Trade and F/A Discussion 2023

[DinoSoar]

Schultz 25 yo; 178 cms; 78 kgs

Last 2 years:
_played 23 games (2023) and 23 games (2022)
_goals scored 33.19 ('23) and 30.19 ('22) or 1.36 p/game
_goal assists: 17 ('23) and 19 ('2) or 0.8 p/game
_tackles: 95 ('23) and 69 ('22) or 3.56 p/game ...wowee!!
_i50: 65 ('23) and 56 ('22) or 2.63 p/game ...wowee!!
_1%'ers: 29 ('23) and 27 ('22) or 1.2 p/game

Been remarkably consistent over the last 2 years based on those figures. I’ll admit that I’ve not heard of this guy but it looks like a good pickup, perhaps he is being viewed as Elliot’s replacement. If so, very astute trading.

 

[Jen2310]

Looks like he turns 26 next month, so 5 years younger than Elliott.

 

[riddick78]

Would there be any compensation for list management ?

If North get pick 2 for McKay, surely we get pick 1 for Murphy,

Might also be why we are hanging onto Kelly, but personally thought Ruscoe showed more than Kelly.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Duursma off to Bombers.

 

[shizzle]

Schultz is a massive upgrade, just an all round quality player. With more trade value than Adams. Not sure we'll have any first round picks this year, which is a bit shit. Perhaps Hine sees minimal quality difference between picks 25-50 for example

 

[sideswipe]

Does the trigger tie him up with freo for 2024 or is it purely at his discretion … this will be massive in terms of how easy or hard it will be to get him

Triggers automatically bind both club and player to the extension. They aren’t options.

I don't think anyone in their right mind can say "With Schultz's trade request, that counts out Billings"... As if Wright only teed up the Schultz discussion this afternoon or something? The "mild interest" line was obviously said with this well and truly in play

I have Billings in the same category as Gresham, when fit plays one good game in 10, nice player when on but too inconsistent and nothing we really need to be honest.

 

[Kappa]

Schultz is number 1 for scoreboard impact at Freo, actually don't mind this.

Literally replaces Adams role but does it better than Adams.

So it turns out Adams was replaceable.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Big news!!!

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

Devastating for him if this happens. But we've all seen the possible future consequences and I for one would hate to see any player suffer as some have.

Surely his family will be telling him that enough is enough. I know if Murph was part of my family, l would be telling him to sadly hang them up.
Life after footy is of utmost importance, and you would hate to see him having struggles 10 years down the track...

 

[Pistol Night]

Big news!!!

Can it be a future can of whoop ass

 

[Chameleon75]

The big difference seemingly is that McCartin had to step away from football completely for an extended period due to ongoing symptoms.

Does Murphy have that or does he always recover after a couple of weeks?

he’s approached the afl to set up the medical panel for assessment, he’s obviously concerned

Can you post the text from that article from the HS?

 

[Cory]

Micochek, McStay and Schultz

 

[Moore of the Same]

So it turns out Adams was replaceable.

He's irreplacable till the trade goes through Kappa ffs.

 

[targett]

Micochek, McStay and Schultz

Isn’t there something about triggers for an optional x amount of years?

 

[Exambolor]

Lewis Melican should be our target. He’s pushed out by Hamling

Maybe he could be the steak knives in the Adams trade

 

[Cory]

Norm

Fixed

 

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Losing Murph and Howe over the next 12 months or so would be a nasty hit to our backline.

it could also mean there’s mild interest pending the outcome with Schultz

The future of Collingwood premiership defender Nathan Murphy could be in the hands of the AFL’s medical concussion panel after he was subbed out of the grand final.
The 23-year-old, who is one of the game’s bravest and respected defenders, was concussed after a head knock in the first quarter of the grand final.

It was his 10th concussion suffered during in his junior and senior playing career.

Murphy’s management has approached the AFL to have Murphy assessed by the league’s independent medical experts.

It is waiting for a response from Stephen Meade, the AFL’s general counsel who also has health care in his portfolio.

This year, the panel recommended Sydney’s Patrick McCartin retire after he had previously suffered nine concussions in his career – including eight while playing at St Kilda.

McCartin felt concussion symptoms after a knock against Port Adelaide in round 4 and did not play again.

Sources confirmed to this masthead an approach had been made to the AFL and that Murphy was waiting for a response.

The AFL said on Monday it did not comment on any player’s health.


It’s understood Murphy did not drink alcohol during the grand final celebrations on Saturday night after the game and again on Sunday.

He was still feeling the effects of the knock on the Monday, the source said.

Family and friends, the source said, are concerned about whether Murphy should continue his career or retire.

Murphy collided with Brisbane’s Lincoln McCarthy and immediately left the field to be assessed.

McCarthy’s shoulder collided with Murphy’s head in a 50-50 contest.

Murphy passed the concussion testing but said in the post-match that he had blurred vision, so he ruled himself out of returning to the field.


Labelled as selfless after the game, footage captured him in tears on the bench.

Murphy told this masthead in the post-match that he went to the huddle at quarter-time, noted that coach Craig McRae was talking and “I couldn’t really see him’’.

“When that happened I said that’s probably enough for me,” he said.

“After the head knock I passed the test but came out with blurry vision so I ruled myself out.
“I didn’t think I was up to it. With my history I get delayed symptoms.

“I thought it was the best thing and right now it paid off because I have got a premiership.’’

Murphy emerged as key player in Collingwood’s defence this season. He played 24 games this season for a career tally of 57.

Pies: Schultz

Swans: Adams, Pick 37 (pies)

Dockers: pick 24 (swans)

****...and I can't say this strongly enough...that

 

[Markfs]

Maybe this is why Kelly hasn’t been delisted yet.

You're scaring me now...
