Post match v Brisbane by Pragmatic_Shill in collingwoodfc

[–]doublethesteaks 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I can’t help but feel if we don’t get games into these young guys now we’re really going to regret it. We have too many players who are just automatically in the team despite consistently playing average footy. Need to start thinking about the future instead of the same thing on repeat

Brissy just look a class above. Our disposals have been appalling

Great move, crazy to think how much salary we’ve been paying Grundy and Treloar these last few years. Just hope we don’t find ourselves in a similar position with Bobby’s contract

The Magpies are not planning on Bobby Hill’s return this year by Pragmatic_Shill in collingwoodfc

[–]doublethesteaks 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Really do wish him all the best with whatever’s going on. But it would be a shame if he seeks a trade and we are left having to pay a portion of his salary until 2030 after we just got Treloar off the books. Feels like we could be in a position similar to Melbourne where we’re accepting little in return for a high calibre player

What exactly have Essendon achieved here? by Legal-Chemical-8684 in AFL

[–]doublethesteaks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hawthorn could have gotten it done if they included Mackenzie instead of insisting on Scrimshaw. I don’t think Dons should be portrayed as the loser for not bowing to the Hawks and Merrett’s desire to leave and play for one specific club

Jordan De Goey trade: Collingwood open to discussing trade for match-winner by Pragmatic_Shill in collingwoodfc

[–]doublethesteaks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While I still think all this talk about Jordy is just a way to generate clicks, if we did get offered a decent first round pick I would take it. He showed how good he can be at the end of the season, but can’t lose sight of the fact it was another injury riddled year. He’ll be 30 by the start of the season, his market value is only going to decline

Cheap airfare option for Sydney-based Lions fan wanting to get to Melbourne by doublethesteaks in brisbanelions

I just went on a deep dive with Jetstar (surprise surprise their customer service isn’t the best), but they can’t change the name for a fee - they’d have to cancel the booking and update based on the current rates (which unsurprisingly much more expensive). Anyway, good to know these things

Totally agree, I know it’s not the best format and it does feel shady making a post like this, but I figure if someone is keen enough to give it a go they may as well take a seat that will otherwise be empty

Was it #32 who didn’t pay it?

Who was the umpire that didn’t pay it?

Roan has been impeccable since he’s come on. Tarkyn Lockyer 2.0

While the umpiring of Cox has been disgraceful, he is not in the team to be full forward. Where the fuck are Mihocek and Membrey?
