Nick's Collingwood Bulletin Board

I thought this was the circus thread? With the sideshow acts in full splendour.

Talking of bets... I just wish Jack had the guts to put his money where his mouth was and take up my offer re the Pies making the top 4 - like taking candy from a baby really - the less money Jack has the better!

Truth is the Pies are gong to win the flag in 2012 and no trolls, pessimists, double identities, club rumours, media distractions, injuries or contract BS is going to stop the Mighty Magpies!

"Why did he do it?" an unimpressed Matthews asked on AFL.com.au's Access All Areas on Friday. "I mean it's great for The Footy Show, but I thought it was bad for Travis.

Would he have been paid?

Doesn't he get paid from TFS??

eh interview gave us nothing, he really is about the best deal for him self but, which pisses me off a bit, pendles is our best player and there was none of this rubbish. What is pendles on? 700 a year? They should be saying there is no way your getting more then that for starters. I'd rather let him go then lose 2 of beams wellers beams or sack. Better wrap this up soon

I spent some time in Canada as a child.

I understand him wanting what's best for him, but it sounds like he doesn't give a shit about the team. I know he does, but in the context of the interview it didn't sound good.

I agree. It sounded like he wasn't worried about the possibility that other current team mates may have to be moved on because of his request. Personally I think the interview was a bad idea. Did not sit comfortably with me at all.

If we fall $300 short in keeping Travi$, Im going to blame Nick-Pie Man.

if this costs us a flag like the malthouse drama last year its going to be really bad

Pretty sure a dozen players injured or under done at the pointy end of the season had more to do with it.. even just Nathan Brown available would have shut Hawkins down once Reid was injured

Would he have been paid?

He would have got paid without spitting garbage that he did last night.

He would have been paid by Ch9 for his usual spot on the show. As are all the players that appear on the panel.

The question is though, was he paid a bonus for his interview. I would suspect so. Unless it's part of the contract conditions.

The interview, I think told us a lot. By a lot, it confirmed many of the things we had heard but were never 100% sure on. It didn't tell us anything 'new' as such.

He may well be right but is there a bigger buffoon on radio than the ox ?

Yeah, ok, there might be one or two but he'd have to be right up there

If only we could get him to GWS, I wouldn't care if he stayed or went.
