Nick's Collingwood Bulletin Board

I've always felt like she was a highly overrated player.

After asking for a $150,000 contract from Carlton, they have ended contract talks and she will be up for trade.

It sounds like the other clubs are in agreeance with the Blues over her contract demands.

So is she a realistic trade target for Collingwood, or are we better off looking elsewhere? (I recently felt like she was a player that could be targeted, before this contract breakdown with Carlton).

No, please keep that diva away from Collingwood.

Not in the top 6 in the Carlton B&F, although she did have injuries this season.

Is very marketable but overrated as a player compared to the rest of the comp.
If she gets her body right she may be a handy pick up for a lower ranked team but she is a bit one dimensional, can only play as a leading forward.

I believe her mother is her manager and I have heard reports that mum is a bit of a biartch.

Pies are better off developing younger players and holding on to their existing stars. Especially with the expansion teams and the associated player raids.

2x All-Australian.
2x Club-Leading Goal Kicker.
37 Games.
29 Goals.
A poor 2021 campaign.
Like Mo Hope, a face of the league.

"But you've just got to stop her in the air. That's her game. If you can do that, she's useless" - Stacey Livingstone.

Team needs a FF and a goal kicker. And with Norder retired, will need to add some height somewhere, Harris is only 177cm.

TBH, I think the AFL/AFLW will want her to go to a rival club, a big club. Are there any new teams coming in? Essendon, Hawthorn, Port Adelaide and Sydney are coming in, but not until 2023 I think?

New teams won't get licences until next year for 2022/2023 season.

I assume she will want to stay in Melbourne, so that only leaves a couple of clubs. The other factor is the current CBA is only until the end of the next season, most clubs have only signed players until 2022.

Spoke to my uncle at the footy yesterday.
He is a Richmond supporter and reckons no one will pay the money that Taylor Harris is asking, also thinks she is overrated.

All eyes will be on the out-of-contract Tayla Harris, with Adelaide, Collingwood and the Western Bulldogs the latest clubs to confirm to womens.afl they will not be pursuing the high-flying forward.

Not welcome back at Brisbane. Not welcome back to Carlton...

Not wanted by Adelaide, Collingwood or Doggies....

That leaves Freo, Cats, Suns, GWS, Dees, North, Tigers, Saints and WCE.

My money is on Geelong or Richmond who are desperate for some media attention. (And Tigers about to lose Sabrina Frederick). Although North are knows to offer big money in the mens....

" Useless" According to Nicole Livingstone who pulled her pants on a few meetings.

That would have been Stacey Livingstone, the Pies awesome backline player.

Nicole Livingstone is the the AFL Head of Womens football and former Olympic swimmer.

Interesting meetings otherwise.

Suns have also pulled out of trading for her. Thats Suns, Crows, Lions, Magpies, Bulldogs all out, and no return to the Blues possible.

If she doesn't want to go to WA, then Eagles and Dockers are out. Same with NSW and GWS.

That leaves Cats, Dees, North, Tigers, and Saints or a year out of the league.

Maybe the Crows aren't out of it?

HS reporting they are going to look into a trade.

Ten of the 14 clubs have ruled out Harris, with Freo being the latest club to say no.

That leaves Dees, GWS, Saints and WCE as the only clubs that have not made any indication about Harris.

Down to two clubs.

Melbourne and St Kilda, with the Dees the frontrunner.
