COLLINGWOOD has reaffirmed its faith in injury-plagued utility Brent Macaffer, re-signing the unrestricted free agent to the end of 2016.

Macaffer was due to come out of contract at the end of this season butAFL.com.au understands he has re-signed with the Magpies for one more season.


Great to Club to Stick with him but I am finding it hard to find how he come back into the best 22 in the Future

Can possibly regain his role he had as a defensive, lead up marking forward. His first quarter in the 2010 GF replay was awesome.

Hard to crack in though.

Good to see the club support him. Not sure he'll be able to regain a spot in the seniors but let's see how he goes.

Good news.

Doubt there's still a spot for him in the seniors, but hope he can come back and play some good footy.

It's good for the spirit around the club to show some loyalty to a player who has always given his all for the club. I doubt he'll get a senior game again, but I'm happy to have him retained for another year, at least to give him a chance to prove me and others wrong.

Anyone know if he's likely to play this year?

Have to be a chance later in the season you'd reckon, be a handy to the VFL team if he could find some form running into finals.

Happy to keep Caff on for another year but unless he can break into the side in the next 12 months I think it will be over for him after that.

Does the club still want him as a shutdown tagger or are they considering the possibility of playing him up forward again like they did in 2010 as a way to re-invent his role in the team?

He's one of the best taggers in the game and stihl manages to rack up some some decent touches.
When he's fit he'll make it back into the seniors.

I'm gonna make a bold prediction; I reckon Caff will be a Premiership coach sometime in the next 25 years.

Senior games or not, he will play a critical role in the development of our young squad, he gets it

Looking less likely.

If he does it will only be at VFL level.

Honestly guys, I just can't see the point in this...
Yes, a fine gesture by the club to retain a loyal servant going through his 2nd knee reco, but my concern is that we have to delist 4-5 players at seasons end, and the deadwood is already gone.

Can only presume Clinton Young, Keeffe and Thomas are effectively cactus.
