i read an update of vfl player movement and there does appear to be quite a few who are not playing on at that level.
I have been interviewing a few and hopefully sign them. Many don't understand that they are part time footballers. It's all about work life balance and being able to enjoy their football. Attending every training session is not possible for many as they work various jobs. You have to fit in with them sometimes and the AFL/VFL clubs don't wish to do that.

Valenti and Martin are rumored to be getting $3k a game in 2105 at local level. Plus work.

Great news, Jack is staying on!!!!
Jack wasn't too sure what was happening at the Copeland. I was worried.
Shame about Ferg though. Definitely my favourite player. Collingwood man through and through too.

While there have been a number of changes at the club, Ben Moloney, Jack Hellier, Jake Williams, Nick Gray and Trent Cody have committed to another year in the black and white.

Will be interesting to see who becomes the captain.

I've been hoping that Ed can get Sewell on the phone!

While injury-prone key forward Dylan Orval has stepped away from the game to focus on work commitments, Collingwood have obtained the services of former Essendon-listed goalkicker Michael Still from West Adelaide, and defender Jesse Wallin from the defunct Bendigo Gold. The Pies had been squarely in the mix to land delisted Hawthorn defender Jordan Kelly, and wingman Roarke Smith, however both were picked up in the AFL rookie draft by the Western Bulldogs. The Pies are believed to still be on the lookout for local talent to bolster their squad.

We have a new addition to the ressies:
Paul Amy @PaulAmy375 34m 34 minutes ago
Collingwood VFL GM @lukegatti wasn't taking holidays until he secured ex-Gold Coast Sun Jeremy Taylor.The tall defender is a locked-in Pie
At least we'll be well stocked for key/tall backs...
