**** off Melbourne! Collingwood put the hard work and support into Billy over the years, and now he's finally come good... Dees want to get him. And we're two weeks from a GF, really shit (deliberate) timing. We want our players 101% focused on winning the flag in two weeks, no distractions. Seriously, they couldn't wait a couple of weeks?

Let’s make sure we win a flag with him this year then.

But Melbourne? Ewww. 12K strong crowds!

I couldn’t imagine him going to Melbourne,just a terrible club in every way imaginable.And great timing from the demons making an offer when our final series was still very much alive.I have a feeling they did this deliberately,the pr****.

Would have to be as sharp as a bowling ball to leave for the D's.

Yeah the timing sucks. Is Adam Ramanauskas still Billy's manager?

A lot depends how much the fuchsias offer. What if it's a fortune with a lengthy contract? I don't want him to leave at all but if you were in his shoes and you were offered millions and years on a contract then it might be an offer too good to refuse.

Yep he might only get another year at Collingwood. If Melbourne offers him a 3+ deal at decent coin (and they have the money to splurge), I wouldn't begrudge him.

I just hate the timing.

The article says the offer on the table is two years.

Nah, Melbourne's culture has contaminated him.

Mind you, if he was redeemable and could actually deliver on his potential, him and De Goey could alternate between FF and midfield

Apparently we are offering 2 years to Billy. Melbourne also offering 2 years on more money. Hopefully a little bit more coin will make no difference and he stays.

Yep, Petracca would be the only swap I would consider. Maybe Max Gawn to back up Grundy.
