^^The other part would have to be good as trading a player who can't get into the Seniors is worth about $1.50.

Yeah, I agree, though I think a lot of it is his attitude. I recall him saying when drafted that he actually disliked Collingwood which was never a great sign from the get go. He does have 26 goals from 36 games so his record is pretty good. I think they'd see the value with an aging Tex.

Ash Johnson is such a disappointment this season. His lethargic and insipid performances are hard to fathom after what appeared to be a good pre-season. I think the problem with him is above the shoulders and if coach Fly Macrae hasn't been able to resolve Johnson's issues by now I fear that we will never see the full potential of him playing AFL for Collingwood. Such a pity if that ends up being true, as Johnson's form at the end of 2022 had me comparing him with the likes of Fabulous Phil Carman for a while. Just shows how hard it is to perform consistently at AFL level.
Collingwood Domination. Envy of the Nation!

^ as "personal reasons" go, that's definitely a good one. Congrats to him if so and hope the baby inherits his moustache!

He's built like Tarzan and plays like Jane. He isn't the first and won't be the last.

Funny but I'm really excited for this game - especially because of the young/new talent on display.

Not really confident about a win but happy to go for the ride.
I think therefore I think - I think
