The Carringbush Rumour File (JUST the rumour pls)
Moderator: bbmods
Wouldn’t say I was a Fiorini expert - but is older, built a little more solid and probably more potential as an additional mid. Not really sure Poulter has shown enough to command a spot on our wing and if not there not sure where else he could/would play.piedys wrote:would rather keep Poulter actually...Presti35 wrote:Poulter straight swap for Fiorini been floated around.
I reckon a straight swap would be fine - however if we end up keeping Poulter I’d be fine with that also. Be good to see him do well, just feels like he’s well down the pecking order.
It's never as good/nor bad as it seems...

Collingwood have tried to learn from their mistakes regarding the 2020 trade period.
Some learnings from that trade period was that the messaging to the public wasn't consistent, it was all over the shop.
You will have noticed the following being implemented:
- No one doing media between the start and end of the trade period unless we are contractually obliged to, and when we do it is Graham Wright only. (No president, No Coach, etc)
- Leaking only what we want to be out in the public through to The Age and through to the Collingwood people at The Age (Gleeson, Niall and Ryan).

Times and circumstances change Cam. At that time, Collingwood benefited from having a President with influence around sponsorship deals and business acumen. Kevin Rose tried valiantly but it was just not enough to make Collingwood relevant again and stand up to the AFL on certain matters. He was monumental in creating a very strong environment at Collingwood that ensured that the club was not a pushover. He woke up a sleeping giant. This was a critical period.
I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas. A Perfect Storm

How is that a rumour? What, if any, source does this come from?DeadEyeDidak wrote:Collingwood's 3 man list for the 2023 Trade Period:

- Ben King
- Logan McDonald
While we'd take any of those, you might as well throw in another half-dozen names.

The series of media contracts he had ending and not being renewed would indicate the same...Cam wrote:This year goes to show how much Ed [bless him, his best was pretty darn beneficial] used the Pies as a platform for his own career. How nice it is not having a president in the news every week.
