Well with Bennell out of the race now we are stuffed!!!

The RFC go on about turning their attention to others, well Richmond WTF is left?????

While I don't condone what Bennell did, if he did it there is no point us chasing more Grigg/Chaplin/Houli/who the stuff ever!!! We need champs to build this team and not chumps!!!

Griff
B Ellis
Grigg
Houli (maybe)
Conca
Batchelor
Chaplin
Lloyd
Gordon

Must go through trade or delisting, we cannot expect to win finals or a GF with this lot.

Add Hampson to this list too.

But you watch, we will still have Batch, Conca, Ellis, Lloyd, Houli, Grigg and Griff running around next year.....

Oh and we will Yarran, that will be our aggressive, war chest recruit... :banghead :banghead

We are so far off its not funny.

No-one has been taken as Trade week aint even started. It's upto players & Managers to do the deals. Its another thing to get the deals done & passed ;D We could have Dangerfield at the end of trade week for all we know. Money talks & the club is cashed up

Yep just like we could still get Treloar. No trade is done until it's done. Put up a better offer than the Pies and it may happen (granted unlikely) but still possible.

What happens with Hawthorn? What if one of their blokes says they want out ? say Hartung?

What About Scott Selwood from the Eagles (we were going to draft him but we traded that pick for McMahon). He's a FA hasn't committed who knows if we are in with a show there?

Lot can happen the next 3 weeks, a lot will happen.

Great time of the year  ;D

Apparently Treloar was on The Marngrook Footy Show last week and talked about why he chose Collingwood and how great they are....so seriously doubt he's going to end up anywhere else....

WAT did you expect anything less from a recruiting department led by hackson and hartley

seriously? i mean you would think they would have the brains to start making a serious play for hartung, anderson, whitecross types but they wont. Yarran is the only  thing we will end up.

get rid of those 2, especially hartley and we may have a chance at drafting a treloar type.

Hardwick well any chance he could something right  and poach monkey or ratten, instead he will probably extend mcqualter and bailey's contract and not replace clarke like he did with campo.

Even that's assuming that Yarran actually will be decent for us....

That was a typo. Descent wasnt supposed to be in there. Deleted.

Thanks for the heads up.

You're absolutely certain on that?

As it Would now seem it wouldn't matter what they did now, you've called it, FAIL

Can't be anything else can it. You've decided

Me, I'll wait until the trade period is over and then I'll pass judgement until then just going to enjoy the ride

You really should try it.
