Didak has agreed to a 2 year deal with the Blues according to Barrett.

[forwardflanker]

Shows you what Mick thinks of the Carlton list if he believes Didak can bring something to the table!

It's baffling whichever way you look at it.

Clearly MM has brought Didak in to improve the culture down at Visy

The hilarity of this move will go and on over summer, I can just see it.

I just hope we don't end up with egg over faces.

Best just to keep quiet on thing's like this as he is just as likely to turn up at Richmond.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

I reckon Mick's tenure will be a good 5 years.

Not sure about good, but it will be 5 years for sure. Mick will start the rebuild in about year 5.

 

[dymot]

thefinger must be the only other bloke on here that knows as much about collingwood as you...

Convenient that he's a St Kilda bloke this guy .

 

[West123]

Love the "MM is trying to destroy Carlton" line from Collingwood supporters. Short memory? Carlton played a week longer than Collingwood this year!

With three less wins too!!! Malthouse is a genius!!!

 

[blueheart]

Right now Carlton supporters are just realizing that there is one thing worse than MM going on a tradeweek booktour and that is MM not going on a tradeweek book tour.

Yep very concerned we might try to recruit the likes of Q.Lynch, Russell, Young & Hudson
Oh wait....
Worry about about your own backyard champ....

My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard,
And they're like
It's better than yours,
Damn right it's better than yours,
I can teach you,
But I have to charge

If Didak goes to Carlton then they'll actually have a ridiculously good hierarchy of villains

It would take more than Didak to do that, he should probably look at taking Shaw as well.

 

[Upgrayedd]

He looked pretty done last time he played. Was only scrapping into the collingwood side due to experiance and had lost a lot. Not sure why they signed him

 

[Madblue]

No it was just one team handled the finals pressure and the other didn't

Not as hilarious as the Tigers capitualion in the finals

Yup, we need an extra runner.

 

[LordLucifer]

Funny how on the biggest Footy show of the year, Barrett did not make one reference of Didak to Carlton. I call bulldust.

I did find that rather interesting, if there was anything in the story, you can bet your bottom dollar Barrett would of blurted it out there and then.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

You got Dids but missed out on Daisy.

MM may just frett himself into early retirement without Daisy to look up at him lovingly.

 

[RandB]

Mick, what are you trying to prove? Yes, you got some ex-pie support staff over and may get Daisy but you're trying way too hard now to get your point across to your old club. If this 2 yr deal is legit then you've lost it.

 

[Gone Critical]

Injured ankle. Would be more likely than not that he's career's not shot given your own club has offered him a pretty nice contract themselves. But I see why you'd all be praying for him to be struck down by injury if he left your club. You blokes have the biggest jilted lover syndrome in football.



I'd be hoping for one. Not sure about expecting.

That's not my style. Don't know where you have pulled that thought from. The fact that you say you see why I am praying for that when I haven't mentioned anything of the sort may say more about your mindset.

until rd one ...then you go back to suffering

And the hilarity of Richmond losing their first final in 12 years to the team that finished 9th will go on for years.

 

[Gone Critical]

Geez mate. Talk about fantasy and deceiving yourself. The only one on your checklist that's actually right is Mick's over Collingwood. Yes. That's right. He's not out to get you. He's just doing what he did long before he went to Collingwood ... coaching football. Just stock standard shit for a career coach. The weirdness and whacky behaviour is all coming from Collingwood supporters. I've never seen a supporter base so disturbed by their ex-coach as Collingwood fans are. Blind as you are to it of course having had a fair swig of the kool-aid yourself.

No kool-aid here. Maybe you can't see it but Mick and Eddie have acted like tools since Mick left. Both could have done with a kick up the clacker. Feel a bit sorry for MM struggling with it. He should be an icon at Collingwood. You may think that it's all in the mind of Collingwood supporters, not all would agree.

 

[Albert Ross]

MM has a history of this.

Remember he netted Chad Morrison & in the process gave up effectively Jordan Lewis and Mark LeCras.

Morrison actually cost a downgrade from pick 7 to pick 10 (and Bo Nixon who was to be delisted anyway). Back then every trade had to include a player - couldn't be only for picks.

Collingwood swapped 7 and Nixon for 10 and 37 (so dropping 3 places to add 37). Then ontraded 37 for Morrison.

Pfft no way, as if they need small forwards, especially one who's finished.

Didak's reputation as a small forward is exaggerated. He is a wingman / HFF type. In 13 seasons, he only kicked over 25 goals three times. (36 in 2003, 41 in 2006 and 41 in 2010). He averages 1.26 goals a game and less than 1 goal assist a game.

Barrett said it so it ain't true.

Since when has this been the prevailing theory of the year?
