Re: AFL Free Agents - 2016
The only other KPD free agent, apart from the Brown boys, is 32yo Tom Lonergan.
I wonder if as a contingency, these guys are having medicals before the fee agency cut off on Sunday.

Re: AFL Free Agents - 2016
I'd rather go in with a mid-tall defensive combo of Roberts, Wood, Collins, Cordy and Morris than throw cap space away on Longergan and the Brown Brothers.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Daniel Wells has reportedly done his calf in the first week of training at Collingwood to the surprise of absolutely nobody (except Bucks).
Good luck with that 3 year deal Pies!

Your post read like the headline of the HS.
I predict next year is the last year of Bucks. 😁 Shortcut and stopgap never work well.

Eddie has overseen the youngest recent premiership team in 2010 go nowhere. Burned Malthouse. Installed an untried coach who has taken the list backwards on the ladder every year. Has overseen a recent exodus of senior managers. Has overseen the over investment in Treloar & Aish. Has overseen the recruitment of White, Wells & Mayne on large dollars and others have left for nothing such as Cloke & Nathan Brown this year. Has overseen a toxic culture and also found time to suggest that drowning Caroline Wilson would be good and that Adam Goodes should play the role of a monkey after a Collingwood supporter offended Goodes with the term.
Frankly, he should've gone already if the club was the priority. But it's not.

And we must not forget the recent appointment of Gubby Allan that lasted 5 minutes and cost them Neil Balme.
