- Here he is -- Dave, 21:07 14/10/26 Wed
  - And a bit more -- Dave, 21:08 14/10/26 Wed
    - Tagging -- Dave, 21:11 14/10/26 Wed
      - Signed a 2 year deal. Playing his last game in Ireland this week (NT) -- Dave, 21:15 14/10/26 Wed
        Half back flanker -- 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, 21:16 14/10/26 Wed
        Yeah but none of ours play on anyone (NT) -- Dave, 21:17 14/10/26 Wed
        Fin is ripper going be a good fit -- Pete, 21:25 14/10/26 Wed
        Jayden who? (NT) -- Annabelle, 21:50 14/10/26 Wed
        he already looks better than HDM and TJ & he hasn't kicked a ball as yet (NT) -- norman bone, 22:50 14/10/26 Wed
Hilarious or hideous if true. Appears so if Xander McGuire quoted Blair Hartley -- VictoryPark, 18:07 14/10/26 Wed
- Bite me 🖕 -- VictoryPark, 19:34 14/10/26 Wed
- RIchmond look like Clowns over this (NT) -- Dave The Man, 21:17 14/10/26 Wed
  - Yes, but it tarnishes us as well -- Optimax, 21:45 14/10/26 Wed
    - Most intentions to prise out a recruit have fair price attached. Geelong and Butters? Zac chose them (NT) -- Annabelle, 21:48 14/10/26 Wed
      - What nonsense are you saying? Butters heel turned on Geelong because he doubted -- Optimax, 22:03 14/10/26 Wed
        Mackie has had that reputation but players are still frequently nominating Geelong. Richmond's demands -- Annabelle, 22:22 14/10/26 Wed
2927 key free agents -- Annabelle, 17:58 14/10/26 Wed
- With a tight salary cap I am not sure we could go too hard at the bigger names. (NT) -- Josh, 18:03 14/10/26 Wed
  - Pretty sure its been stated that we still have plenty left in the cap (NT) -- Konformist, 18:13 14/10/26 Wed
    - Per the AFL site, they note Leppa stating this was one of the reasons the deal didn’t go through. -- Josh, 18:20 14/10/26 Wed
      - Tight for 2027 season maybe. Surely we'd be okay for 2028 season -- Tim, 18:25 14/10/26 Wed
        Hopefully cap is sorted by the 2927 season (NT) -- Bux l am your Father, 18:27 14/10/26 Wed
        I wont care (NT) -- stephen, 18:54 14/10/26 Wed
  - Is our cap right? (NT) -- MR, 18:13 14/10/26 Wed
  - We don't have a tight cap (NT) -- Optimax, 18:31 14/10/26 Wed
    - And you know this how? (NT) -- Josh, 18:41 14/10/26 Wed
      - And I don’t pretend to know either way. -- Josh, 18:46 14/10/26 Wed
      - Cause we offered massive $ to butters (NT) -- Tim, 19:09 14/10/26 Wed
        Is Butters really worth that coin? Nup. Match winner? Id say borderline. -- VictoryPark, 19:27 14/10/26 Wed
        No nut Rowell is. Fingers crossed of course (NT) -- Tim, 19:32 14/10/26 Wed
        * No, but Rowell is (NT) -- Tim, 19:33 14/10/26 Wed
        And king before him, and the fact it's reported we had surplus that needed to be paid next -- Optimax, 19:35 14/10/26 Wed
We've given up a future third for Riley (NT) -- Annabelle, 10:52 13/10/26 Tue
- Great deal (NT) -- P35, 10:54 13/10/26 Tue
  - Collingwood supporter rescued from Carlton! -- JtP, 11:04 13/10/26 Tue
    - Yes please...! FREE the Jagga (NT) -- Maggeepye, 12:00 13/10/26 Tue
  - Thanks Annabelle. I’m happy with our lot for this year. (NT) -- Rusty, 11:05 13/10/26 Tue
- Welcome! -- Optimax, 11:06 13/10/26 Tue
  - I do hope Coe gets picked up, he was working very hard this year to be kept. (NT) -- Rusty, 11:07 13/10/26 Tue
    - And zero zilch nada on Dan Houston, after Sam McClure and Josh Jenkins reports thought this was a goer -- Pyeman WPBD, 11:15 13/10/26 Tue
      - McClure is notoriously wrong on many occasions. With list spot squeeze let's hope -- Annabelle, 11:17 13/10/26 Tue
        We don't really have a list spot squeeze. Coe is out of contract -- Optimax, 11:37 13/10/26 Tue
        It’s just about list composition -- Gifty, 11:43 13/10/26 Tue
        i'd be demoting both hdm & buller onto rookie list or ideally pay-out & exit completely (NT) -- sam-e, 11:48 13/10/26 Tue
        Surprisingly there were no takers for HDM so maybe give him the Samson Ryan treatment. (NT) -- Annabelle, 11:49 13/10/26 Tue
        Un- -- sam-e, 12:08 13/10/26 Tue
        Don't you notice sarcasm? (NT) -- Annabelle, 14:08 13/10/26 Tue
        And Josh Jenkins -- Member2025, 12:25 13/10/26 Tue
- I'm stoked about this one -- Genghis, 11:20 13/10/26 Tue
  - Some details on Riley who's been honing his skills with Greg Williams -- Annabelle, 11:36 13/10/26 Tue
    - Am I missing something? Nothing yet from club or AFL trade tracker? -- Thommo, 13:50 13/10/26 Tue
      - Link inside - my phone updated a while ago with these details -- Annabelle, 14:10 13/10/26 Tue
- Can Flynn mark? (Compared to, say, Grundy, who can’t mark.) (NT) -- muddy, 17:00 13/10/26 Tue
  - On exposed VFL form, yes. (NT) -- Optimax, 17:10 13/10/26 Tue
    - Highlights from his MSD pick up -- Optimax, 17:30 13/10/26 Tue
      - Wow Flynn's highlights are very impressive -- Dutchy, 09:03 14/10/26 Wed
        Yup best highlights I’ve seen since Toby Thoolen (NT) -- Mark W, 09:17 14/10/26 Wed
        Toby Thoolen. 😂 Hopedully big Flynn has a bit more going for him athletically than Toby! (NT) -- MR, 09:58 14/10/26 Wed
        What is Flynns height? About 209 cms? He is a seriously big unit. (NT) -- Gus, 10:28 14/10/26 Wed
        I'd trust 206cm. Seriously tall unit regardless. By comparison, Steen also a giant yet about 5cm shorter (NT) -- Colin Wisbey, 11:20 14/10/26 Wed
        Steene athleticism is elite. Massive leap. Hope the club get him back to afl level. -- Rodda83, 15:07 14/10/26 Wed
        His best selling point IMO is ethic, incl physical COMPETIVENESS, 2nd/3rd efforts, attack on man (& ball) (NT) -- Colin Wisbey, 11:25 14/10/26 Wed
        after a decade watching Carlton's current coach and Stretch Richards -- Mark W, 11:32 14/10/26 Wed
        I like his marking -- Genghis, 12:06 14/10/26 Wed
        MSD info had him at 206cm -- Genghis, 12:04 14/10/26 Wed
        If Riley and Steene both play... -- Rocket surgeon, 12:22 14/10/26 Wed
        Cameron is far far too slow to play as a key back (NT) -- Mark W, 12:39 14/10/26 Wed
        tallest player on our list (209) & doesn't suffer from 'stunning' syndrome -- sam-e, 12:27 14/10/26 Wed
        Isn’t he 22yo (NT) -- Rusty, 12:33 14/10/26 Wed
        22-yo even (NT) -- sam-corrective services, 12:57 14/10/26 Wed
        I won't hear a bad word said about Stunning Steve -- Rocket surgeon, 12:34 14/10/26 Wed
        Of our previously traded in ruckmen... -- DT, 12:52 14/10/26 Wed
        Pretty hard to go past the Myrtleford Mauler -- Rocket surgeon, 15:46 14/10/26 Wed
        That famous Hotrod line comes flooding back to me.. -- Crimson Mask, 13:30 14/10/26 Wed
        Classic Hotrod! (NT) -- JtP, 14:36 14/10/26 Wed
        Imagine Stunning Steve under the new ruck rules…. (NT) -- Mark W, 15:39 14/10/26 Wed
        Remember Hotrod saying Leaping Tiger, hidden ruckman after some film at the time. -- Annabelle, 16:26 14/10/26 Wed
        Correction Crouching Tiger, Hidden Ruckman (NT) -- Annabelle, 16:44 14/10/26 Wed
        Fantastic. God bless Hottie, great times. Legend! (NT) -- RD, 19:03 14/10/26 Wed
    - Thank you. (NT) -- muddy, 13:45 14/10/26 Wed
Jayden Short Deal Off according to Josh Gabelich -- Terry Boulder, 14:27 14/10/26 Wed
- wld be madness to give up anything for HBF'er (overstocked) & UFA (in 12-mths) (NT) -- sam-e, 14:34 14/10/26 Wed
  - Of course the big question is -- Skinny, 14:35 14/10/26 Wed
    - Good news. We can manage without a thirty plus flanker. (NT) -- Annabelle, 14:37 14/10/26 Wed
      - Praise the lord -- BN, 14:45 14/10/26 Wed
        Leppa just said -- Skinny, 16:41 14/10/26 Wed
        Not sure what they're thinking. Theyve got picks in 40's, 80's and 100's in 2027 -- Moondog, 17:37 14/10/26 Wed
    - I reckon they originally expected something else to happen that didn't eventuate. (NT) -- Terry Boulder, 14:47 14/10/26 Wed
      - The club has massively realigned any deal that DeGoey was expecting. -- Rusty, 15:08 14/10/26 Wed
        Gives us room to take Stringer in pre-season -- Radio Gaga, 15:15 14/10/26 Wed
        I don't mind the idea of Stringer -- Terry Boulder, 15:43 14/10/26 Wed
        If I wasn't your fizz up forward then who was? (NT) -- Bobby Hill, 15:51 14/10/26 Wed
        Nobody. And it's a reason we didn't play in September. -- Terry Boulder, 17:19 14/10/26 Wed
        We need some pace (NT) -- Rocket surgeon, 17:48 14/10/26 Wed
    - I believe this was answered in a previous thread -- DT, 15:29 14/10/26 Wed
      - Yep. It's highly unlikely they would have got as far as a contract unless they thought -- Flumpus, 16:40 14/10/26 Wed
- Good. Richmond have lost sense on reality (NT) -- Tim, 15:28 14/10/26 Wed
  - Short is out if contract end of next season I think -- Tim, 16:22 14/10/26 Wed
    - Year after (NT) -- Optimax, 16:29 14/10/26 Wed
      - JDG a good fit for Saints but they've blown their cap up and need space for NWM next year. (NT) -- Annabelle, 16:34 14/10/26 Wed
        Who says Annabelle? (NT) -- P35, 17:29 14/10/26 Wed
        Port going hard for nwm next offseason (NT) -- Tim, 18:27 14/10/26 Wed
- I'm not sure what was so "curious" about the Pies dealing here -- Moondog, 17:27 14/10/26 Wed
  - Agree, we've packed up and left the building. (NT) -- Annabelle, 17:52 14/10/26 Wed
  - Houston is damaged goods -- Gaz, 18:05 14/10/26 Wed
    - Wasn’t he 4th in the B&F? -- Josh, 18:15 14/10/26 Wed
I can’t see the Pies doing a deal before 7.30pm, so I rate our trade -- Rusty, 16:14 14/10/26 Wed
"Collingwood has offered Jayden a contract" Blair Hartley of Richmond -- Optimax, 13:15 13/10/26 Tue
- how is this so Grasshopper? (NT) -- Maggeepye, 13:18 13/10/26 Tue
  - Same as we did with Riley? We expect we have the collateral to trade for him -- Optimax, 13:22 13/10/26 Tue
    - There’s also still a chance -- Skinny, 13:30 13/10/26 Tue
      - Shortage -- Pielife, 13:44 13/10/26 Tue
    - 2nd rounder next year should do it -- Rumple, 14:22 13/10/26 Tue
      - Our midfield needs a refresh, and we reverted to a very aggressive half back game -- Optimax, 14:29 13/10/26 Tue
        Agree Pies likely thinking along these lines -- Picapica, 15:29 13/10/26 Tue
        100% -- Tim, 15:53 13/10/26 Tue
      - Not defence first? Keep the ball until you score...! ;-) (NT) -- Maggeepye, 16:38 13/10/26 Tue
- Free agent in 12 months time -- Tim, 15:52 13/10/26 Tue
  - Talking about free agents, a really good article on the AFL site…. -- Rusty, 16:01 13/10/26 Tue
  - Short? not a free agent next year... (NT) -- Maggeepye, 16:39 13/10/26 Tue
    - But Kiddy Coleman is apparently (NT) -- Storm Man, 17:40 13/10/26 Tue
      - I would love the Pies loving Coleman at Pies next year, he appears impatient though -- Maggeepye, 21:09 13/10/26 Tue
    - Oh sorry I thought he was out of contract (NT) -- Tim, 20:36 13/10/26 Tue
      - Only way we get Short is if JDG or Houston gets traded today. -- lones37, 06:52 14/10/26 Wed
        You seem to have intimate knowledge of Houston's contract, can you give us the numbers breakdown -- Pyeman WPBD, 07:59 14/10/26 Wed
        Make that backended, thanks auto correct. (NT) -- Pyeman WPBD, 08:00 14/10/26 Wed
        Last year is $1.1m, the sticking point is -- lones37, 08:53 14/10/26 Wed
        You say he wants out but I don't think he does, he's actually quite content and happier than he's ever -- Pyeman WPBD, 09:53 14/10/26 Wed
        Lones may have some inside information... However -- Cakewalk, 10:30 14/10/26 Wed
        Public messaging cannot be take as a reflection of what's happening behind the sentence. It may be -- Flumpus, 10:42 14/10/26 Wed
        It has been pretty definitive though... -- Cakewalk, 11:22 14/10/26 Wed
        What may have happened is they opened the skirt, didn't get any takers, and then -- Flumpus, 13:17 14/10/26 Wed
        Why would we offer Short a contract knowing how unlikely both of those scenarios are? (NT) -- Cakewalk, 08:35 14/10/26 Wed
        Because midway through the season the trade with Houston was on. (NT) -- lones37, 08:53 14/10/26 Wed
        So....St Blunda didn't know Houston was on a $1.1m back ended contract midway through the seaon ? -- Storm Man, 09:22 14/10/26 Wed
        Once they did, and realised there was no movement at either end -- lones37, 09:31 14/10/26 Wed
        I am wondering if the club expected DeGoey to leave - and that this is what fell over? -- Terry Boulder, 10:37 14/10/26 Wed
        Well do you think he is worth 3 x $1m at his age? -- lones37, 11:03 14/10/26 Wed
        I wouldn't have thought he'd be worth that. -- Terry Boulder, 11:19 14/10/26 Wed
        The Short story does seem a little loose, a player or their manager -- Rusty, 11:26 14/10/26 Wed
        There’s no ‘out’ just don’t sign the contract. The player can view the contract -- MJ, 12:09 14/10/26 Wed
- Tiges have picks 48, 84 and 103 in 2027. They're gonna need a 2nd rounder (NT) -- Moondog, 13:54 14/10/26 Wed
Justin Leppitsch shut down Houston media speculation once and for all -- AFL Trade Radio, 11:23 13/10/26 Tue
- This is good -- Devious, 11:29 13/10/26 Tue
- People who believe the offical messaging are pretty naive -- Gifty, 11:51 13/10/26 Tue
  - Trade and Free Agency period has become such reality tv, that I could believe journalists make -- Optimax, 11:55 13/10/26 Tue
    - They absolutely do Optimax, no question at all. They are journos, they are simply -- Rusty, 12:03 13/10/26 Tue
      - Aren’t* (NT) -- Rusty, 12:04 13/10/26 Tue
    - Leppa did say both the club and Degoey are looking at it from a buisness perspective -- Rodda83, 14:24 13/10/26 Tue
  - Spot on (NT) -- Rambo, 11:58 13/10/26 Tue
  - Leppa did say they were open for business…no lies there. -- Rusty, 12:00 13/10/26 Tue
  - Like the dropped toothbrush resulting in a head knock and hospitilisation?? (NT) -- Rambo, 12:06 13/10/26 Tue
    - I think there are so many people on this board that are desperate to get rid of Houston -- Sproulie, 13:06 13/10/26 Tue
      - Spot on, Sproulie (NT) -- RedMagpie, 13:11 13/10/26 Tue
      - Im not desperate to get rid of Houston, Im desperate to improve our draft hand -- Mark W, 14:31 13/10/26 Tue
        Fair enough, Mark. -- JtP, 14:46 13/10/26 Tue
        Hopefully someone back in looking after development can help bring some of our already listed -- Maggeepye, 15:12 13/10/26 Tue
        Yes everyone wants to add young talent before Tassie, clubs like Richmond -- Annabelle, 15:37 13/10/26 Tue
        Might "hurt" us if we don't get success. -- JtP, 15:49 13/10/26 Tue
        Were there some that didn’t buy in JtP? -- BN, 16:37 13/10/26 Tue
        Maybe we let the AA play in the role that he is best at? -- Sproulie, 12:22 14/10/26 Wed
This is what Blues gave up for Whitfield -- Annabelle, 15:44 13/10/26 Tue
- Plus Whitfields contract -- Tim, 15:51 13/10/26 Tue
- Good get -- BN, 15:54 13/10/26 Tue
  - Good player who is past his best. Carlton gave up a bit to get him (NT) -- MR, 16:19 13/10/26 Tue
    - They gave up bugger all to get him really. -- Josh, 06:14 14/10/26 Wed
      - Type of player we're missing? Really, a half back distributor? We have too many if anything (NT) -- Rizonico, 08:25 14/10/26 Wed
  - Jinx (NT) -- Bux l am your Father, 17:40 13/10/26 Tue
    - Get in early Bux -- BN, 21:51 13/10/26 Tue
I think we'd be mad to not offer Stringer a spot of some sort -- Radio Gaga, 18:01 12/10/26 Mon
- I would. One year deal. Cut him if it doesn't work -- Tim, 19:09 12/10/26 Mon
- Why do you think nobody is interested?... Something in that, I would think. (NT) -- Jen2310, 19:11 12/10/26 Mon
  - No list spots available -- FL, 19:30 12/10/26 Mon
    - You'd think that's Coe, who Reily replaces (NT) -- Optimax, 19:32 12/10/26 Mon
    - We can bring in Riley, Short, promote Long - + draftees, but would need to re-rookie 2 players. (NT) -- Jen2310, 19:37 12/10/26 Mon
      - And sign Howes and Saxena - Delisting Coe. (NT) -- Jen2310, 19:38 12/10/26 Mon
        Another option -- Skinny, 19:48 12/10/26 Mon
        Richmond offloaded Samson Ryan to create a list spot. (NT) -- Annabelle, 19:51 12/10/26 Mon
        I think to fit in short and riley, and promote Long, we would need to re-rookie two anyway (NT) -- jen2310, 20:19 12/10/26 Mon
  - Hogan gave him a positive wrap. Must not be all bad like people pretend. (NT) -- Rodda83, 14:32 13/10/26 Tue

Michael Gleeson said in the Real Footy podcast, he doesn't see the Short trade happening. (NT) -- Jen2310, 21:05 12/10/26 Mon
- I agree - I be Shocked IF it Happens (NT) -- Dave The Man, 21:06 12/10/26 Mon
  - And I pose the question with list spots at a premium.... -- VictoryPark, 21:36 12/10/26 Mon
    - One of the3 picks can be an upgrade from the current rookie list like possibly Long (NT) -- Maggeepye, 21:44 12/10/26 Mon
      - Correct, which is how I think it will happen. 2 picks + Long upgrade -- Jen2310, 22:39 12/10/26 Mon
        We should end up with Carlton's 2 Rd pick , we swap out first rounds if port trade pick 5 -- Cairns pie, 00:08 13/10/26 Tue
        I can see Harry Dem possibly being paid out and delisted if needed (NT) -- Maggeepye, 09:03 13/10/26 Tue
        Leppa just said a trade for Harry is unlikely -- DT, 09:13 13/10/26 Tue
        I highly doubt we’d upgrade a rookie -- Gifty, 09:21 13/10/26 Tue
    - They won’t rush Steene now, rookie. I see Coe gone, and if Saxena doesn’t do the preseason -- Rusty, 12:25 13/10/26 Tue
- Only way it happens is if Houston goes -- Rambo, 07:27 13/10/26 Tue
  - Even in the unlikely event that Houston was traded -- Rocket surgeon, 08:06 13/10/26 Tue
    - What’s most surprising -- Skinny, 08:57 13/10/26 Tue
      - other than Schubert who is 18, the others are very NQR -- Optimax, 09:03 13/10/26 Tue
        I’d rather have -- Skinny, 09:24 13/10/26 Tue
        Trade capital is about the assets you want to keep, and the assets you will let go. -- Rusty, 09:26 13/10/26 Tue
        Neale and Hogan are reasonable additions (NT) -- Bill, 10:21 13/10/26 Tue
Collingwood AFLW team slammed as ‘dysfunctional’ as key stars left disgruntled -- Optimax, 11:11 13/10/26 Tue
- Bout time the media picked up on it -- Sproulie, 11:19 13/10/26 Tue

- Pt Adelaide, come in spinner (NT) -- DT, 11:43 09/10/26 Fri
  - Melb jump up from 6 to 4 and basically bail on the 27 draft. (NT) -- Pyeman WPBD, 11:47 09/10/26 Fri
    - The bloke at Melbourne is a shrewd operator -- BN, 12:23 09/10/26 Fri
      - Smart move given next year's compromise, they've valued draft talent more than us. (NT) -- Annabelle, 12:44 09/10/26 Fri
      - Melbourne GIVE: 6, 10 :and get 4, 12, 31, 46. Gayfer less likely at pick 4 now -- Moondog, 12:48 09/10/26 Fri
        Do they? or were they so shit on field in 2025 they finished low -- Optimax, 13:22 09/10/26 Fri
        Agree Opti. Also lucky they dealt with a desperate GC for Trac (NT) -- MR, 13:25 09/10/26 Fri
        Who everyone expected to be top 4, pure luck (NT) -- Optimax, 13:27 09/10/26 Fri
        Dees have tended to hit the draft more than us. They traded into position for -- Annabelle, 13:41 09/10/26 Fri
        2019 was an entirely differet regime, and we'd lost the unlossable prelim -- Optimax, 13:48 09/10/26 Fri
        The Grundy prelim (NT) -- Gaz, 14:57 09/10/26 Fri
        Houston impacted 25 draft as well (NT) -- Rocket surgeon, 17:54 09/10/26 Fri
- So bulldogs give up 2 firsts for seconds and fringe guys -- Tim, 15:21 09/10/26 Fri
  - Butters Trade is a steal -- Ron1952, 15:57 09/10/26 Fri
    - Sure. But butters is a FA. This separate trade is bullshit to rort the system -- Tim, 18:21 12/10/26 Mon
  - Guess though they would have had to surrender that if the compo pick wasn't accepted. -- Annabelle, 15:58 09/10/26 Fri
    - That's why the compo pick needs to go; make clubs pay the real trade value. (NT) -- Annabelle, 17:44 09/10/26 Fri
      - Get rid of restricted free agency. It's open to abuse -- Tim, 17:58 12/10/26 Mon
- Port effectively got 5 firsts once fa compo lands...wow. dogs gave up sweet fa too (NT) -- Rodda83, 15:21 12/10/26 Mon
  - is why clubs not happy with this or the other mega trade for king (NT) -- Maggeepye, 15:44 12/10/26 Mon
Predictions for end of trade week? -- Optimax, 20:50 11/10/26 Sun
- so I predict we won't do much from here -- Mark W, 09:36 12/10/26 Mon
  - Agree Mark. I think the Fly in the ointment re. this strategy, is not Shane's team or Leppa. (NT) -- Annabelle, 09:45 12/10/26 Mon
  - Tigers look like getting pick 5 -- BN, 09:47 12/10/26 Mon
    - Think Tigers want HVH and a mid. They're accumulating talent (NT) -- Annabelle, 09:50 12/10/26 Mon
      - From The Age just now re. Houston -- Annabelle, 09:50 12/10/26 Mon
        Interesting that Tigers also get a compensation pick related to Cochrane yet -- Annabelle, 09:53 12/10/26 Mon
        I stand by an earlier post -- Skinny, 09:57 12/10/26 Mon
        THe Houston trade scuttlebutt is completely media-driven -- Radio Gaga, 10:14 12/10/26 Mon
        What's being happy at the club got to do with anything? -- Porter, 10:42 12/10/26 Mon
        A lot of argument about trading Houston out is because he is 'unbappy' at the club and wants out -- Radio Gaga, 11:08 12/10/26 Mon
        According to Xander on MMM Dan's never been happier so who do you believe? -- Pyeman WPBD, 11:56 12/10/26 Mon
        Every chance Dan wasn't happy, but is now. -- Terry Boulder, 12:43 12/10/26 Mon
        Dan wasn't happy with his form last year, and he certainly had some very poor interactions -- Optimax, 12:45 12/10/26 Mon
        Yep. And I doubt he really cares what supporters think -- Terry Boulder, 13:02 12/10/26 Mon
        The cost at the trade table narrative is because of the perception we pay overs too often. (NT) -- Annabelle, 14:43 12/10/26 Mon
        I've never seen a split in supporters this bad over Dan. -- JtP, 13:07 12/10/26 Mon
        And it is noticed by other players -- Optimax, 13:12 12/10/26 Mon
        This isn't purely a Houston thing either. Houston, Schultz, McStay -- Optimax, 13:16 12/10/26 Mon
        Taylor Adams copped it bad too early days. -- JtP, 14:30 12/10/26 Mon
        I blame Gary Shaw...maybe even Peter Eakins.. (NT) -- Mark W, 14:52 12/10/26 Mon
        Go to all the club boards and docials its not just a collingwood thing. -- Rodda83, 15:01 12/10/26 Mon
        Some of the abuse is disgraceful stuff -- BN, 13:20 12/10/26 Mon
        Agree 100% (NT) -- Nswpie, 17:57 12/10/26 Mon
        I sure dans delighted with his lot -- Gaz, 17:20 12/10/26 Mon
    - Finished bottom of the ladder? -- Optimax, 10:16 12/10/26 Mon
      - Essendon didn’t they ? -- BN, 11:03 12/10/26 Mon
        will it though? these days players can just move... -- collingwoodj, 11:13 12/10/26 Mon
        It cracks me up that everyone is scared of saying they advocate a drop these days at pieland. -- Rodda83, 15:06 12/10/26 Mon
      - If it meant building a dynasty list who cares. One bad year finishing 10th or 18th what the diff. -- Rodda83, 11:43 12/10/26 Mon
Tom Morris saying STK should offer Pies 10, +16 for JDG, and Dan Houston -- Joseph, 14:29 12/10/26 Mon
- 10 and 16 for two guns - tell him he's dreamin (NT) -- Radio Gaga, 14:40 12/10/26 Mon
- Nup....not even close (NT) -- Storm Man, 14:46 12/10/26 Mon
- and that tosser puts a 30% increase on contracted players!! Both are. -- Moondog, 14:52 12/10/26 Mon
- Oh, and he added Saints would want a later pick back!!! (NT) -- Moondog, 15:02 12/10/26 Mon
- We would do that if it was offered, I suspect -- Gifty, 17:26 12/10/26 Mon
  - Then 11 and 16 to Port for their 5. Leaving 5 and 10 for a midfielder and Gayfer. (NT) -- MJ, 17:29 12/10/26 Mon
- Just trying to drum up interest. -- Josh, 17:44 12/10/26 Mon
Surely if port trade pick 5 we trade our first with Carlton as it would remain the same pick -- Cairns pie, 17:16 12/10/26 Mon
Melbourne based AFL team mates in hospital after alleged drug use via sen (NT) -- Optimax, 11:18 11/10/26 Sun

        The Hun officially reported it is Carlton with three players hospitalised. (NT) -- Annabelle, 12:28 11/10/26 Sun
        Details below -- Annabelle, 12:30 11/10/26 Sun
        From Jon Ralph, reeking of 'cover-up' -- Annabelle, 13:15 11/10/26 Sun
        Cowan and Hayward (NT) -- CFC Statement, 14:07 11/10/26 Sun
        News flash. Young men go to emergency department after partying a bit too hard. -- Rocket surgeon, 14:20 11/10/26 Sun
        One them needed cardiac arrest treatment (NT) -- Optimax, 14:23 11/10/26 Sun
        Allegedly (NT) -- Optimax, 14:24 11/10/26 Sun

        The Carlton Crew -- Pielife, 15:29 11/10/26 Sun
        Alcohol is legal but statistically much more dangerous -- Rocket surgeon, 17:24 11/10/26 Sun
        Your average 20 something isn’t a professional sportsman -- Mark W, 19:00 11/10/26 Sun
        Is that because alochol, being legal, is easier to get and as such causes more damage? -- Optimax, 09:30 12/10/26 Mon
        And if you abused rec drugs like alcohol youd be dead not hungover... (NT) -- Rodda83, 15:09 12/10/26 Mon

Richmond are asking for too much for Short -- Skinny, 09:27 09/10/26 Fri
- If we go into next year only adding Hogan and Neale -- Jack, 09:36 09/10/26 Fri
  - Ins from wild card -- Sereda, 09:41 09/10/26 Fri
    - The competition will be better -- Jack, 09:47 09/10/26 Fri
      - Disagree -- BN, 09:56 09/10/26 Fri
        Elliott won’t play until the middle part of the year -- Jack, 10:01 09/10/26 Fri
        Club and he are of the opinion he'll be playing some level in the first month (NT) -- Optimax, 10:23 09/10/26 Fri
        Hawks will add Nash. Interesting their forward riches pushes Schubert out. (NT) -- Annabelle, 11:12 09/10/26 Fri
      - King/Merrett against Hogan/Neale -- DT, 09:56 09/10/26 Fri
        Agree -- Cakewalk, 10:45 09/10/26 Fri
        We're looking to extend Swadling after the trading period since his contract expires next year. (NT) -- Annabelle, 11:10 09/10/26 Fri
- Short + 2nd rounder (coll) for Houston (rich) (NT) -- sam-e, 09:38 09/10/26 Fri

    - Jack Sinclair from Saints is also an UFA next year -- Terry Boulder, 10:00 09/10/26 Fri

      - Richmond want a 1st rounder + -- Skinny, 10:28 09/10/26 Fri
        Bit like how norf wanted 2x firsts for simpkin -- Gifty, 18:01 10/10/26 Sat
- Tigers can piss off. (NT) -- stephen, 10:25 09/10/26 Fri
- The comical bit is Craig McRae has been talking to Short all season -- Optimax, 10:28 09/10/26 Fri
  - Agree, but this means Fly will be determined to get his way with this and his 'short termism' is a worry. -- Annabelle, 11:48 09/10/26 Fri
    - Fly understands that if Collingwood bottom out. -- Reggiodonnell, 12:24 09/10/26 Fri
      - Maybe but can't see Short being a needlemover in terms of this. Hogan and Neale fine because -- Annabelle, 13:43 09/10/26 Fri
        Recent drafts suggest that many players can impact from the outset given the diluted overall talent pool. (NT) -- Annabelle, 13:44 09/10/26 Fri
      - Disagree it very much depends on how you sell the vision. (NT) -- Rodda83, 15:16 12/10/26 Mon
- Good. Fuck em (NT) -- Tim, 14:10 09/10/26 Fri

    - yes please, keep both picks (NT) -- Maggeepye, 23:25 09/10/26 Fri
      - IF Houston were traded, I'd back in Swadling to take his role -- Rocket surgeon, 16:12 10/10/26 Sat
        Or their 16 and swap our 11 for their 10 and some later swaps for the ruck (NT) -- MJ, 16:37 10/10/26 Sat
Once again I ask…. -- Member2025, 09:17 12/10/26 Mon
- Or if they get a lower houses advantage, they get a reverse COLA cap effect. (NT) -- Annabelle, 09:47 12/10/26 Mon

Is RubyS leaving the AFLW team? -- stephen, 10:42 12/10/26 Mon
- She, like other senior players are holding off signing an extension (NT) -- Optimax, 10:53 12/10/26 Mon
  - Why did we only offer her 1 year last year? -- BN, 11:04 12/10/26 Mon
    - It seems in most of australian women's sport, they are only offered 1 year deals -- Sproulie, 11:05 12/10/26 Mon
      - That being said, Ruby does seem injury-prone. -- Sproulie, 11:07 12/10/26 Mon
    - I believe that is what she requested (NT) -- Optimax, 11:56 12/10/26 Mon
- The club is locked in. They have to pay the salary cap and football department soft cap regardless. -- Josh, 14:20 12/10/26 Mon
Would Pies accept St K's pks 10, 16 plus a 1st for Houston and De Goey? -- Joseph, 08:13 12/10/26 Mon

  - I suspect dogoey wanting 1 million x 3 next offseason affects Rowell plans -- Tim, 11:27 12/10/26 Mon
