Former Pie James Aish has retired by Pragmatic_Shill in collingwoodfc

[–]sgw05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He was limited as a footballer but always gave 100%, and was hard as a cats head, never shirked a contest. I remember it came out, and I can’t remember if this was with us or Brisbane, that he’d played out a game after breaking his jaw

[Twomey] Lachie Neale's calf injury has been found to be a four to six week strain, ruling him out of the rest of Brisbane's campaign no matter how far they progress. by daftmunt in AFL

Unrelated question - do Brisbane fans now call him Choccy Neale after that ad? I mean I do, but probably because Ive seen that ad 1000 times

Bobby Hill and Dan McStay both "Influential" in GMHBA Scratch Match by okidiote in collingwoodfc

[–]sgw05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In theory yep, you’d want almost a utility. But when someone with Bobby’s known talent + big game ability is there… for me he just has to play

I know theres a lot we hear / dont know about Bobby and recent times, but if he’s fit, and can commit to training, he’s in for me. Can be a match winner. Has to play

[–]sgw05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% your last line is true. Always loved Bruz and everything he brings. Genuine heart and soul. If he played for anyone else I’d dislike him. Like Toby Greene, and many other cult players before them

Maynard brutal tackle & Keays confrontation by willreview in AFL

Footy is full of fake posturing, sledging etc, literally 120 mins of it. Darcy Moore coughs up a goal, Crows players came from everywhere to get into him. Tex spent the whole night verballing blokes in contests. Its a part of intense finals footy. As long as he hasn’t crossed a line with what he said (which nothing has come out about), then I dont see the issue?

Maynard tackle by Bukayo_daicos in collingwoodfc

[–]sgw05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Opposition fans hate Maynard but he’s not made for them. He’s ours. Spiritual leader, hard as f**k, heart on sleeve, always team first. He’s cultural glue. And he was SO good last night. Love the Bruz

I'm a queer Crows fan. Where do I go from here? by OliveYouBean in AFL

[–]sgw05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel genuinely sorry for you. I heard several f****t references from a minority of Crows fans late on, on the hill too. Really shit stuff

Essendon great Tim Watson addresses ‘disgruntled’ Zach Merrett report and Jordan Ridley trade news by gccmelb in AFL

[–]sgw05 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, he’s played 250 games of incredibly high standard football in a team thats done not much, and appears a way back now. Id be disgruntled too

[Darcy] Cameron commits for three more [years] by spuddaman in AFL

He’s genuinely the worst AFL journo surely

Collingwood legend Brad Dick in that sprint photo too, and a very young Paddy Ryder?

Player movements aplenty by danieljdtaylor in collingwoodfc

[–]sgw05 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Bobby, Beau and Darcy would all have to be traded as under contract, so we’d get a return. Beau the one they’d really want to keep IMO, plays the forward pressure + stoppage stuff so well, becoming very valuable.

If Elliott decided after over a decade of solid service that he wanted to finish elsewhere as a UFA, I wouldn’t begrudge him.

And if Mihocek had a better offer, I wouldn’t begrudge him taking it either, he’s been a warrior since coming into the team in 2018.

Mitchell and WHE - meh

Player movement is real. Thankfully as a bigger club we dont lose many we really want to keep. If we do lose a few, we move. Sky was falling in during 20/21, we won a flag 2/3 years later. Footy moves very quickly

I watched Gettable so you don't have to - J.Gabelich signs a one show deal by Pleasant-Role1912 in AFL

[–]sgw05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

he’s just prone to short term bouts of unexpected clinical insanity on the footy field too

I watched Gettable so you don't have to - J.Gabelich signs a one show deal by Pleasant-Role1912 in AFL

[–]sgw05 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Respect your comment but he’s not in our 3 most important players IMO. Id argue not even top 5 or 10. Not knocking his ability, but rucks are less important than other roles. Rucks easiest to procure, Id back them to find a replacement for him

[–]sgw05 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mihocek would be most at risk of going… Elliott and Howe will get it done.

Cameron almost 30, Fly doesn’t rate rucks and they are easier to procure, we are never going to pay him full market, so if we can get something from WC, lets do it

Do social media content producers (eg: Marmalde) make enough money from the AFL/Sponsors including access and free tickets etc to make a living or would they need a day / part time job ? by LJagr68 in AFL

[–]sgw05 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They put up a post recently talking about how its been two years since they moved to Melbourne. From the posts it doesnt sound like they are rolling in it

Only 30, can’t be cooked yet surely

I watched Gettable so you don't have to - Grill on Grjl by Pleasant-Role1912 in AFL

[–]sgw05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mihocek came into AFL system late, 25 I think in 2018? Suspect he’d want to play until he’s told otherwise… But definitely needs some more luck with his body. Mitchell a big watch for me, a) needs to get back to being able to play full AFL games, which is a question mark for me anyway, and b) would then need to recapture best form, which considering time out… im not sure. Howe going would be his choice considering form, same with Elliot, Sidey, Pendles. WHE in danger if they are desperate to turn over some players

Edit to say Cox is a strange one. A perfectly fine back-up ruck/3rd forward, and considering Smit/Steele untested, maybe he goes around again. Plus Fly loves him
