Fasolo staying at Collingwood

Hope Pendles is right and he will stay. I love Fas, is a beauty when we get a defensive forward who can apply significant defensive pressure. I don't understand the nonchalent attitude many have towards his possible departure. I want him to stay, and if he wants to go home, we need to make sure we get enough for him. I would prefer a player to a pick.

But we already did that. His name was Blair. That went well, didn't it.

Judging by this I'd say he's more likely to stay

Fas has historically always said why would he leave!

He loves Collingwood has a strong relationship with Bucks & Sando

Are we basing all this discussion on Brian Waldron

Gee he was spot on with Big Coxy

Although with his brave call this year if he wanted to go home then fine.

But I think he is our best set shot (excepting early this season when he did not want to shoot at goal).

We are screaming for Good kicks and he is one why would we want him to leave. He has short comings but no one is as good as David King or Slobbo

So Unless you come from "The Sack Em All" side of our supporter group

It will be great to see him kicking Goals in 2018 in the Black n White

If you reckon he is no good have a look at the Richmond "Brodie Grundy" Goal game.

I rate Fasolo but his defensive pressure is very average. I hope he is travelling ok mentally.

I admire his courage to speak up about his experiences with depression.

If he can get his head right ( no pun intentend as I almost deal with cases like this on a daily basis ) he can and will be a required player.
Going through the challenges he faces, knocks the absolute shit out of your confidence and ability to make clear choices/decisions.
With the support he is getting, one hopes he clears the old noggen and lives up to his potential which we have seen glimpses of.

That sounds like a plan.

Would love Fas to stay and I reckon his best is yet to come!!

If he wants to go then we shouldnt force him to stay. We should ask for a late first round or early second round for him, considering his age.

Good on him, great piece and I hope everyone gets behind him whether he stays or not.

Personally I think (and really hope) he'll definitely stay and the rumours have just been manifested by the fact he is from interstate and has depression. Seems to love the black and white otherwise.

I would like to see more consistency from Faz. That said I want him to stay and when he is on song he is fantastic. Our forward line is eventually taking shape and he is a handy player within the mix
