AFL: The AFL 360 team break down reports Melbourne's Kysaiah Pickett could request a trade for family reasons.
Collingwood has left no doubt it believes the premiership window remains open after recommitting to all four of its out-of-contract veterans for 2025.
It means all nine of the Magpies’ over-30 brigade will play on next season and could lead to a player exodus at the end of the campaign. “I don’t think we should be in a hurry to exit the experience off our list because I think those things are really beneficial for our young group,” McRae said earlier this month.“I haven’t got to , but form dictates a lot of things. You have currency for past experiences, and you get certain grace, but if there comes a time someone is performing really well , you’d want to be performing in your role.
Collingwood list boss Justin Leppitsch said the quartet would provide “invaluable” experience and help guide the Magpies’ “next generation”.
