But the house in Kew!

Far Kew Rowell

 

[gouki88]

We don’t need SOSOS.
Billy will be our first choice full back for the next five years.

As funny as that would be, I am not sure that Frampton will be our FB when he's 31-33.

 

[Horaceg]

I bet he would have a few suitors. You might need to wrap your head around that.

I wouldn’t mind having Silvagni on our list….


………..so we can drop him from our VFL team to play local footy. Payback, Nick should never, ever been clothed in the filth.

Far Kew?

THIRD TIME LUCKY?​

FORMER Collingwood and Geelong utility Nathan Kreuger is back on the radar of AFL clubs ahead of next month's Mid-Season Rookie Draft.


The 25-year-old joined Geelong's VFL program after being delisted by the Magpies last year and has starred while playing predominantly in defence across the first month of the season, averaging 15.7 disposals and eight marks to draw the attention of recruiters.


Kreuger played for the VFL in the state game win against the SANFL in the Barossa Valley on Saturday.

Melbourne, St Kilda and Collingwood are understood to be a few of the clubs keeping tabs on the South Australian, who can provide readymade coverage at either end of the ground.


The Magpies delisted Kreuger at the end of last season after 13 games across three injury-interrupted seasons – following two appearances for Geelong in three years – but Craig McRae

was a fan of the 196cm swingman and tight list spots were behind that decision.


Collingwood will have a spot available after Reef McInnes ruptured his ACL last month and is considering options for defensive coverage. With seven rounds to play between now and the Mid-Season Rookie Draft, other clubs could need key position depth by then

FUTURE PICK FLOODGATES OPEN​

CLUBS will be able to trade away all of their 2026 picks with the extension of future trading to two years in advance.


Under the new rules, clubs will be allowed to trade a full suite of their future picks one year ahead as the AFL this year introduces two years' worth of future picks being up for grabs in deals.


Under the previous future trading rules, clubs would need to retain a 'full suite' of second and third-round selections in their future draft hand to be permitted to trade their future first-round pick. That caused some challenges among clubs as deals were left hanging by the need to retain picks to meet the criteria.

But with the advancement of future trading to two years, that rule now applies to the second year of future trading and no longer to the first.


For example this season, clubs will be able to trade their 2025 picks and all of their 2026 picks, but then have to carry their 2027 second and third-round selections to trade that year's first-round pick, or to trade out their 2027 second and third-round picks, they need to retain that year's first-round pick.


The AFL has kept its 'two-in-four' condition to future trading, meaning clubs must use at least two first-round picks over a rolling four-year period to be able to trade out their future first-round selections.


The extra hand of picks, plus no limits on the number of selections a club can trade one year in advance, means clubs will have far more assets to play with at the trade table this year.

FORMER PIE JOINS RECRUITING TEAM​

EX-MAGPIE Matthew Lokan has joined Collingwood's recruiting network.


The 46-game Magpie found cult status at the club in 2003 when he emerged as a mature-age recruit to play every game in his debut season, including the club's Grand Final loss to Brisbane.


He played only two more seasons with the Pies but has had a long history with football since then, including coaching in the NEAFL and also returning to Port Adelaide as a coach of their SANFL side for several years.


Lokan has started as one of the Magpies' part-time recruiters based in South Australia.


He will work under former Magpies teammate Shane O'Bree

, who is Collingwood's new national recruiting manager.

 

[Granit1962]

Steene’s unavailability through injury has been the major issue since his recruitment. Unless we see a block of 8-10 games in the VFL then it’s too early to write him off. Agree size is an issue.

And Smit similarly needs time as a 19yo. His aggression, leap and agility are positives but his poor kicking might be his undoing.

More so he looks completely lost in a pack and hasn't show any signs of taking a contested mark. His other attributes look excellent - if he does make it expect it will be a very long burn

Surely not Freddy again. I still have PTSD from all his injuries, plus Mcbean made him look a bit average in the state game

 

[SchuPie]

Not that it was tracking any different with the way the suns were going, and not like we could afford him now we have these academy players.

From Gettable.

Twomey on Rowell:

"I expect he stays. I expect some movement in next couple of weeks."

He can sign until he’s a UFA and then we’ll grab him

 

[Scodog10]

I mean we only had what 3 years to make the move and every opportunity to choose him over Dean late last year? Backward step, IMO.

Can understand why other clubs might be interested in him, but it would be really random if we drafted Krueger back. Can’t see a world where this happens.

Could be the best KPD we rate on the Board

But yeah would be tad Weird bring him back so Quick

 

[sr36]

As funny as that would be, I am not sure that Frampton will be our FB when he's 31-33.

He's got all the tools. Last year he was just dozy too often.

Bloody easy to do. I never played footy zoning off, but in basketball I hated zone. A pass would come through for a lay up and I'd think oh **** that was my job to cover that, What was I doing? Oh that's right, I was thinking about Pamela Anderson running on the beach.

She’d be 60 or so but I guess they make plastic to last nowadays.

 

[pablo disco bar]

Good bring him home

 

[danielnajdek]

No to Kreuger. Every time I watch him I have a panic attack every time he jumps for the ball.

God bless him but we cant risk a list spot on him again surely

 

[granniewolf]

Too bad we can't just add Riley Mason. I am still trying to figure out how these drafts work.
If we wanted him, what would have to happen to get him?

 

[stormskye]

 

[Copeland]

One might be in trouble if McCarthy is as good as they say

Isnt it a fairly small sample size so far, Im not really following him.

Do my eyes deceive me…

the redemption arc lives on?

 

[Jen2310]

Yes, he's only played 2 games. But been really good in both of them.

 

[Jen2310]

You'd just need him to be there when our pick rolls around come MSD
