    Given the potential of both Hayden and Logan and their youth surely in years to come we will be calling for a Mac Attack

    Take Franklin to Perth, and leave him there.

If his tank is good enough, I would persevere on the ball with him- otherwise he tends to drift out of the play too often!
    Some complain that the coaches move him around too much. The reality is he hasn't shown enough to retain his spot - he only manages about 10 disposals a game. I think they put him in the ruck to get him more involved. They should leave him there for a while and he might learn how to find the ball a bit more often.

    You could be on the rookie list for a while.

    If we get Harry McKay from the blues it would be a Big Mac attack...

    Can we make a compromise?

    We can bring Franklin back to Sydney, but leave his contract in Perth.

    Absolutely n hope of that. Not enough salary cap space

    Check out their board in BigFooty. That's EXACTLY how they saw it. I'd feel sorry for them... if they weren't Collingwood!

    Great win by the boys, all things considered. This was meant to be the Pies "statement game", and so it seemed. For all of one quarter. Then we prevented them from scoring again, really.

    Defence wins Premierships. And wresting momentum back when you are on the back foot. Maybe not this year, but the signs are good for the next few.
