Do we re-sign him? Delist? Or look at another potential suitor? |
I would most certainly sign this lad up...193cm and 80kg running midfielder
I would point him towards three goals for pre-season:
1) add 6-8kgs to his frame
2) work his guts out learning to kick on his right foot
3) align himself with Sidebottom in terms of preseason training and become an elite two-way runner

4 ) attach a leg rope to his opponent |

He reminds me of a guy I saw popping a mad mono an old BMX down Frankston Flinders Road past the hospital with a smoke hanging out of his mouth back in the 90s
You know when an adult gets on a kid sized BMX and has to jack up the seat and handlebars as far as they'll go? That guy |

And with a packet of Winnie Blues rolled up in his flannelette sleeve?

Poulter to Crows in a straight swap for Matt Crouch. Adelaide to pay a small % of Crouch's contract, which is 1 year.
Will you handle a midfield packed with Adams, Mitchell and Crouch? |
I don’t mind it - pity the Crows appear to have said they don’t want Poulter… _________________ It's never as good/nor bad as it seems... |

I reckon there’s a bit of the intensity of Clarkson in McRae and Wright. I say that because if you’re not playing in the senior side it’s no fun turning up to training and slogging your guts out for a dangling carrot that appears not to get any closer. Ginnivan and McCreery got there not by talent but by sheer hard work. I think Henry and Poulter have the talent and expected it to come a bit more easily than it has under the new coach. Both got games last year, but struggled this year. It’s second year blues to me. Once they get over the hump it’s smooth sailing. However for two immature kids I can fully understand why they’re not happy and want to move on to another club. I’d prefer to keep both but unfortunately I see both being moved on. |

Yep I reckon your point is spot on. Also they are naive to think that they will be treated any differently at another club if they continue in the same vein. The expectations of them would be the same. _________________ I term the current Collingwood attack based strategy “Unceasing Waves” like on a stormy and windy day with rough seas.

Does anyone know if Poulter has actually been offered a contract? _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

Everything I’ve read says he hasn’t been offered one
The fact that he hasn’t been offered one, but not been announced as a delisting suggests either we think he has some trade value or that we might offer him once we know what the trade results are |

Thanks, that was pretty much what I was thinking. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |
