I almost broke when Maxy moved forward last Sunday- I knew what was coming....
I sat and absorbed the atmosphere on Saturday night- thinking so e of these boys may / will already know this is their last official Club Function.
I survived the first day of work today with people wishing me the best following the loss- Not alot i could have done about it
My Dislike most years is Trade week - when players choose or are chosen to go....

yes I can get excited about new players and watching them develop
It didn't feel good when Bally hadn't come out and said anything 'yes' or 'no'- made me uneasy ( I still fear for Matty
![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
but the news that Bally had CHOSEN to leave has me gutted.

I am so saddened by this- alright logically it hadn't looked good but thought his commitment to the group would override other parts and things could be worked out..
BUT to read he has had a contract on his table SINCE JUNE shows he has been thinking about this, and before being dropped..
to see its Collingwood- well maybe manager has had an inkling that's the possible..
in trying to look forward - I guess we know the IQ level at Collingwood will now rise by atleast 50%
they have quality coming their way if it works out?
