So how will this pan out for the Pies going forward? Surely players will be reticent to go there after this. But money talks so will the Pies have to entice players with more money? And the cycle continues......

The I ❤️ Collingwood thread.

Has to put a fracture in the club if there already isn't one, which there have been rumbles ruminating across the ether.
Somethings not right at the Skunk hole.
Yep.
What's the Rolex I bought in Bali and Figgy got in common..........they're both genuine fakes.
I think it was on show in the final vs the Cats this year.
What I saw ( from the first quarter ) showed me something was amiss ...
Players threw that game.
Just found out exactly what's going on down there.
*They had to clear at least 1.5mil
*They needed to resign Degoey and Milocheck
Now they have a clear path to get this bloke ready for 2021
Collingwood don't throw Finals, its in their DNA to have 'No Shows'.
Players get over this sort of stuff pretty quickly. Not sure it will affect much going forward.
His presser after last years preliminary loss was one of the most cringe worthy things I've even seen.....he made Basil Faulty look like an amateur!
The issue with Collingwood is they don't like losing player's to other clubs. Period.
They're the GWS of Victoria, they resign their own player's on huge deals to keep them.
Elliott was offered 500k to go to Brisbane, instead of just overing him 350-400 to stay put, they matched the offer and he stayed.
Cox was on the verge of going to Essendon, so they resign him with an option of a 2nd year at unbelievable numbers.
Phillips just played in the GF, he played 40+ games in a row. So they give him a incentive based contract based on how many games he plays in the season.
He torched them, he played all 23 games last year and was owed 600k.
I reckon a 1st yr Accountant student would've been able to see the shiit they were getting themselves into.
But its over now. Thanks to hawthorn, North Melbourne and Footscary they helped Collingwood free up close to 2 million dollars. if they finally get Beams off the books, they will back in the black and singing.
If they come out and have a good start to the season (They usually do) the liitle Collingwood supporters will forget this ever happened.
I see Collingwood as big winners in the trade period.
It allows them to Reset.
Exactly.
Those three clubs bailed them out and if they get the AFL to ease Beams payout , well they get the lottery= savings of huge money...
But we still have hope.
Grundy on huge $
DeGoey just signed which could cause them issues further down the track.
Moore $$
Still hope.
Not just the players they like losing. Buckley was going to coach lolnorf before fat Ed steeped in and whiteanted Malthouse with his “succession” plan. They were on the verge of probably a few more grand finals with that squad, but it all *smile* up because Ed couldn’t stand the thought of his love child coaching elsewhere. Has worked out well
That all sounds pretty good Zips, Figgy is still their coach though.
What was supposed to be a better list has turned out to be an alarming list to starboard ... landing Treloar in the drink.
Me: "What's that, Adam?"
Adam: "Not drowning, waving."
Grundypants on a mill a year.
Moore's new contract gotta be on 600 to 700 thou a year.
The Gooey one will be on 700 to 800 thou a year when he gets his new deal.
The Yankee Cox on 550 thou a year.
Grampa Pendles n Sidearse would both be on fat coin.
After all the crap that's just gone on with the massive overs they were willing to pay Trelol, TAB n the other bloke why would any other Colonwood player sit back n cop loose change just for the joy n privilege of pulling on a Colonwood jumper.
