irrespective of liking it or not he is now a collingwood player. time to support him. |
Premature, still nothing official on the AFL site. |
you are still holding out, aren't you?! 
that glimmer of hope is diminishing. |
While that straw is still there, I'll clutch |
get around him. if he plays less than 12 (11 or fewer) games next year i'll buy you pub meal and ale.

Varcoe will play well in our Reserves next year.
Good injury backup, as he cant even play permanent small forward as his shoulders are stuffed, and probably cant mark overhead.
Time will tell though, but he definitely wont be another Paul Medhurst |

Was getting plenty of games at the Cats who I don't think anyone can argue are a better side than we are currently.
Will give us some of the run and carry we desperately need. Welcome to the club Travis. |

Welcome.
You need to start well, or you are gonna be the whipping boy bro.
Seriously, throw yourself in headfirst a couple times in your first game. Injuring yourself in the process is probably wise.
We'd rather manage without a bloke we've decided to respect than put up with a squib from the handbaggers in our team.
I wish you every success from here on in

| Nah - Armstrong has him absolutely covered! He was the whipping boy of the VFL, as well as the senior list. Hard to top that. |

Heh heh we're all inclusive here at Collingwood.
Armstrong shut his detractors up a bit at the end of the year - I still say if Varcoe doesn't 'go when it's his turn' early days he'll be the new 'favourite'.
A squib effort followed by a shank kick and he'll be booed off the ground.
This is probably what he needed to 'get his head around'.
So props to him for having the courage to come at all

I'd say he'd be fully aware what he'll get over the fence from Pies supporters, been on the receiving end more than enough as a Cats player. |
