So to cover their arses and try and justify that they didn't screw up the payments and weren't completely disloyal to their players, they're now trying to pretend that they chased Lynch because... what, they're feeling awkward that they have to now cut players whilst two years ago they were chasing Lynch very hard? Absolutely ridiculous. No, Collingwood were chasing Lynch. Everyone remembers they were. Lynch had dinner with almost every member of the Collingwood brains trust. I doubt they just had him over for company.

Let's pretend for a second that even the fact the whole world knows they chased Lynch as it's been confirmed by multiple people, plus a backyard escape......what's the logic of saying you didn't? We had a clear need for a key forward and we didn't chase it, instead going after another midfielder??? That's sackable for a footy department then in their inept decision making.
This is probably the worst PR exercise I have ever seen. Ned Guy is just a puppet for Walsh/McGuire/Buckley.

You're exactly the sort of Collingwood supporter they sent him out as a sacrifice to.
That was car crash TV.
He'll probably walk down the street now and people will just say 'there goes that Ned Guy' (With Apologies to Jesse Jackson).

Dead man walking
Ned is a moron who I would have sacked with the Beams deal. I googled an interview 5 mins while he was at the Lions after he was recruited and thought this is a mistake. So clearly he did no due dilligence. He re-signed Treloar with dodgy hanstrings for 6 years clearly overpaying him and the beams fiasco. In 2021 at this stage we are paying them 800k in the salary cap for one of them to get 32 touches against and the other to do finger painting. That is an A grader that we are missing out on.
in fairness to him Pies have been screwed by AFL salary cap decrease so give him so leeway there as 1.2=1.3 reduction is what we basically let out the door. Pies should sue AFL for damages done because of their AFL's financial mismanagement that lead to this. A cash rich organisation had to loan 500 million to stay afloat and instead of saving 250 million for a rainy day pissed up against the wall with the Suns while Taswegians say hello.
Will be interesting what other clubs do as we cant be only ones in this boat. I think watching car crash it maybe better clubs reduce salaries 5-15% across the board which I hope other clubs do. terrible feeling watching your club committ such stupidity.
The other thing that didnt help...... double agent mole Dom Milesi worked at the pies was fully aware of the clubs salary cap issues and played us like a violin. Someone streetwise would have said stay away from a dogs deal. Dom has every right to screw us over but hope Collingwood views as any goodwill as gone and not do them any more favours such as Eddie helping the dogs get a sponsor when they were struggling. With hard times ahead dont expect anymore help from the pies. The club has done a lot of things for the dogs so to be screwed like this rubs salt in the wound.
And to think Grundy starts his new 7 year contract as our no 2 ruckman.
To describe Ned Guys deal is it is like Indecent proposal accept demi pays 1,000,000 to Robert redford to shag woody up the arse with a barb wire condom.

After buckley’s interview, absolutely dead man walking.
Buckley says salary cap was the reason, Guy says the opposite?

COLLINGWOOD list boss Ned Guy will step down from his role after this year's Mid-Season Rookie Draft, just months after the club's tumultuous Trade Period.
Guy, who arrived at Collingwood at the end of 2017, was forced to oversee last year's aggressive list overhaul that saw Adam Treloar move to the Western Bulldogs, Jaidyn Stephenson shipped to North Melbourne and Tom Phillips traded to Hawthorn.

So since 2017:
- Beams debacle
- Grundy 7 year, 7 million dollar contract
- Treloar's massive contract and subsequent departure
- Stephenson, Phillips shipped off for peanuts
- Traded Pick 2 for 2x mid-range second round picks*
Are we missing anything?

Was a dead man walking since that shocking trade period and interview last year, surprised Collingwood didn’t try to pin the systematic racism on him too because he was clearly already cooked.

Just a puppet getting sacrificed. As if this dude made the calls over Beams/Grundy.
