The Pies have been ruthless the last 5 years with list management. It's been bye bye on our terms to:
* Stephenson
* Phillips
* Treloar
* Grundy
* Adams
* Poulter
* Ginnivan
I expect that to continue in October where Johnson is simply sold off to a club desperate and stupid for a 4th round chump pick despite having 1 year left on his contract or paid out (not to play) Zac Langdon/Jared Polec style. _________________ I love the Pies, hate Carlscum |

I feel a bit sorry for Ash. He's a natural, instinctive, highly skilled footballer but he's a 3rd tall not a KPP at AFL level. He plays his best when he's freed up to play naturally but he's being asked to play as a KPP within a very structured forward line, neither of which suit him.
You sense his confidence is shot and the only reason he played last night was because the only other uninjured player on our list over 6'3" who can play forward is Krueger. In hindsight, Krueger should have played instead. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

I inherited my Grandfathers Axe from my father. He replaced the head and I replaced the handle, but it's still My Grandfathers Axe. _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

He transferred and went down a grade in football and is doing well this year. You cannot manufacture this part of a player's game. The higher the level, the higher the intensity. |

As most big companies would say in an email, we will support him as he seeks opportunities outside of the CFC.[/list] _________________ Buon Giorno |

Can't see another club wanting to trade for him now either. Not sure we will delist him and pay out his contract. He's not working out in whatever role we've set and tried him in this year so far. Need to try something different.
Give him a break to freshen up the mind as there's nothing wrong with his body.
Need to find a different role for him too. If he's just an enigmatic talent, maybe we just need to let him be him rather than pigeon hole him into a role that restricts his natural abilities. _________________ Premiership Pies made it legendary in 2023, donât let them forget it. #Go PIES 2024âŚ. |

McCrae and Allan were both drafted pre Fly (IIRC) who would have different expectations than Bucks.
Both seem good honest footballers but lack leg speed and intensity. As they each have a year to go, trade Fin to the Dogs and Allan to West Coast (or Dockers). West Coast may also be interested in Ash _________________ Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down. |

Ash shouldn't feel too bad. Petty had a worse game as a key forward today. _________________ Fighting against the objectification of woman. |
