List Mgmt. FA & trade wash up, what list spots & draft picks do we have?

[TradeDraft]

Just like signing a DFA elevating Smith or Cox would have burnt 90 f/s points.

We don't know how the Club Rates the 2 F/S

Yes we Nominated Him but does not mean we defintally take them IF I high Bid Comes

Keefe was a no brainer, mate of mine reckons he has been flat out training like a man possessed, might surprise some of our regular Pies whingers one this board.

Lachie Keeffe/Keefe/Keffe etc has been elevated to the senior list.

If Marsh is still AWOL, we might agree to move him to the rookie list for a year and re-visit his situation next year.

Hey Timmy from Thomastown do you think we've elevated him for ruck back up?

Keeffey will look awesome at the music festivals

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

He'll be a fifth backup as Gault was, behind grundy cox white and whoever we recruit on the rookie list for depth.

So, no. The answer is no.

Whats the story with Blair still being un-contracted? Have we offered him one? anyone know?

According to AFL website he is one of many still to be re-signed.
Going by all reports he was made an offer a while back but maybe that is in limbo at the moment as the club decides on list needs.

His manager Paul Connors was on trade radio a few weeks ago saying he had a 1 year contract on the table and expected him to re-sign and be at Collingwood next year. Connors did indicate that he thought he deserved a 2 year deal so maybe they are still haggling over that. Conners was fairly emphatic he would be a Collingwood player in 2017 though.

Reckon he'll sign and also believes he deserves a spot on the list.

 

[doodles98]

I'm not so confident. He does deserve a spot on the list and losing him for nothing will certainly not help our list depth. But with us bringing in Mayne and WHE, and Elliot, Fasolo, Broomhead hopefully ready to go by round 1... Blair is in an interesting position and both he and his manager know it. Reckon at the moment he's obviously sounding out his options as a DFA and will walk if he finds a suitable offer. If we are only offering 1 year on not much $ then you can't blame the guy.

 

[Rorzza]

Yeah, Blair has been a wonderful servant to the club but his position in the starting 22 must always be in question with the likes of Fasolo, Elliot, Broomhead, Thomas, Brown and Daics all available if injury free. Have to give credit where credit is due, he has been resilient over the years but no way is he an automatic best 22. IMO he needs to hit the score board a little more, he just has not produced the last two years in front of goal consistently. If we have another injury depleting year then I expect Blair to stand up once again.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Yep maybe he's sounding out a two year contract elsewhere and no blaming him for doing so. Not sure he will get one though. The rumour mill is pretty much non existent.

Suspect that failing that he will sign with the pies. Up to him to play well enough to get another extension in 2018

I understand Blair signed the contract we offered him i.e. a one year deal

not according to the AFL website, and wouldn't CFC publicize it if he had?

 

[legendstatus]

We can't delist Blair, Bucks & Eddie trolls will roll out the " only xx players left from 2010 GF " dribble again!

LOL. They'll be the same ones that say Blair shouldn't be playing.

To move forward, I'd like to see us look past Blair, but others need to step up and take his spot. I don't see him playing much in 2017, but handy depth. He's a premiership player, after all.

 

[TradeDraft]

AFL.com.au saying Blair has not Re-Signed Yet

 

[Jonno94]

Both Xavier Richards and Josh Green are better than Keeffe and Thomas as similar players. We should give both a good look.

 

[anshell]

Xavier Richards is the interesting one.Just played in the grand final so he must be a handy player.If we could get him cheaply,like for pick 105,i would definitely go for it.

Big reason Brown left the club, they told him he was behind Keefe.

 

[adammania9]

If Blair decides to leave, I hope we pick up Green as his replacement.

I thought we had Mayne for that role?

 

[MagpieBat]

Would be a huge blow to our KPF's if he doesn't sign.
