    Re: Damien Barrett what's his agenda ?

    Whilst the last month has been encouraging, the year has been a disappointment. From Round 1 where we were non-competitive; Round 2 where we served up much of the same, the trend was set. We are clearly better than the bottom 5 sides. Capable of mixing it with sides outside the 8, and out doing ourselves to beat the occasional top 8 contender (or give them a scare). Whilst I am pleased that we showed something in the last month, it really was to little to late. You have to question why we came back so far behind the opposition in round 1? Why did we think we could turn Wood into a forward? You have to question the progress some of our players made in 2018....Dunk's, Hunter, McLean, MacRae, Williams aside did any really take a step forward?

    I think a 2 rating is about right. We were rubbish in 2018 and what we served up was pretty bad non-competitive football. Whilst there were excuses and justifications, some questions needed to be asked of our coaches, fitness team and senior players.

      Wait for the article citing the Tom Boyd deal as being the reason Dahl has left and why Bonts hasn't signed yet.

      Like death and taxes. Expect the article soon.

        Shortest odds going he will pipe up on that front. Article was written the day Boyd signed, with the exiting player the only blank part in the copy.

          It will be just another reason for us not to worry about him.

            AFL newsbreaker Damian Barrett has admitted he had a heated exchange with Collingwood president Eddie McGuire before last week’s episode of The Footy Show.
            The Herald Sun reported on Wednesday morning that the pair clashed regarding the main news story of the week, before Barrett didn’t appear on the show.

            Barrett told Triple M on Wednesday afternoon he and McGuire had moved on from their exchange, before they both appeared on the show on Tuesday night.

            “It was two people having a conversation before the show; it was as simple as that,” Barrett told Triple M.

            “I spoke to Ed after the show, spoke to Ed again the day after and spoke to him at length on Monday and again yesterday.

            “There was nothing to move on from.

            “It was a conversation that happens every night before The Footy Show.”

            After narrowly missing out on breaking the ASADA investigation into Collingwood defender Sam Murray on The Footy Show a couple of weeks back, Barrett broke the news online first thing the next morning.

            Barrett chose not to go into the details of his exchange with McGuire.

            “It was a discussion about a news story which ultimately required a few discussions,” he said.

            “And as such, I made the decision not to go on.

            “I will not be talking about what it was, and I will never be discussing what the story was about.”
