Sydney looking at Grundy and Adams - this will certainly make them stronger in 2024

So did he declare himself fit and get knocked by by the MC/ fitness staff during GF week?

If this were us and we had just won the flag it would be reported as:

Premiers in crisis as star player wants out after being overlooked for GF

But since it is Collingwood it will be more like:

Little known player seeking opportunities elsewhere as the Premiers have a dearth of talent and need to let fringe players go.

They're not likely to be hitting the draft this year. Hamling, Jordon already confirmed and with Grundy and Adams likely they're clearly topping up.

Re: Early Trade Rumours 2023

Carlton midfielder Paddy Dow has requested a trade to St Kilda.

The 23-year-old had been in talks with both the Saints and Sydney.

Good. Let them stay in perpetual recycling mode where their peak is an 'almost' top 4 finish once or twice per decade.
Their fans do it real tough.

They want to get Seb Ross out of the midfield and if they can get the best out of Dow they might achieve that.

They've got some great youngsters so perhaps not the last roll.

Re: Early Trade Rumours 2023

To be fair to Jake, "Athletes don't have abs" is 100% a thing.

We aren't selling jeans (or in Harmes' case, speedos)...we are trying to win footy games.

Pretty sure De Goey doesn't look 'like that' and he broke clear in the last quarter from Dunks (who does) and kicked a goal.

Aye, four of their top-five B&F place-getters are 23 and under so Horse has plenty progressing through the ranks with which is something of a pity because I'd be all over him he was looking for a new challenge.

He must have been at Sydney for a while as an assistant and head coach. 15 years?

Good guess, he's been at he Swans as an assistant and then head coach since 2002 and took over for Roos in 2010.

21 years. Apart from Jock McHale that must be getting close to record territory coaching at one club.
