I think people have forgotten just how good he is. He's young enough to be absolutely worth sticking with. If he ever does come good again, he will make a formidable forward line downright invincible.

Absolutely worth a punt.
I think people have forgotten just how good he was. The jury is out on whether he will ever be able to return to anything like his best football of 3 yrs ago. All we can do is hope.

Surgery has happened already- Im pretty sure thats why he got a new deal- must have been a success.

Moore and Elliot, Scharenberg and Dunn, Wells and others will make us even stronger in 2019.

My response to his signing is very posiitive. We wouldn't have signed him again if we thought we couldn't get him fit. Great that we are backing both him and us in.

good to see you changed your mind mate, welcome back xxx

let me know when your back at training, ill join you if youd like


as for Billy, smart move, he must realize he needs to get on board the bandwagon, and im wrapped, im guessing it wasnt too expensive. sadly, i guess its bye bye Faz then. I hate saying goodbye to players who were black and white through and through, but if he is gone ill wish him well - depending on where he goes!!

If he can get a run of 8 or 9 games fit he will be a big advantage. Hope he gets through it would be another collingwood tragedy no to see him reach his full potential.

Usually 'Last chance saloon' isn't it? Either way, he is front n centre at the bar; hope he can turn it around, there's space for a player of his talents if he can get fit to play 25 straight

Honestly can't see him fitting into our forward line structure.

I guess its a good signing if Mihochek has a bad case of second year blues.....a la Jack Anthony and Chris Dawes who really struggled when opposition coaches started putting a good beckman on them.

One year signing is perfect for both sides. We get the security of not over-committing salary cap with longer tenure and Jamie gets the opportunity to stake his case in 2019 with a good injury free season thus setting himself up for a more lucrative contract next Summer. Smartly played Ned Guy.
