Today the Crows have confirmed their decision not to appeal the suspension.<\/p>\n
Essendon, however, did appeal the one-match ban handed down to best and fairest winner Maddy Prespakis for a dangerous tackle on Richmond\u2019s Sarah Hosking by the match review officer.<\/p>\n
This was successful and the Bombers midfield star is free to play this weekend against West Coast.<\/p>\n
Why Ginnivan has to go following the Schultz deal<\/h2>\n As we wait for Jack Ginnivan\u2019s trade to Hawthorn to be formalised, have a read of chief footy writer Jake Niall\u2019s analysis of the premiership Pie\u2019s impending exit.<\/p>\n
When Collingwood emerged victorious from one of the AFL\u2019s greatest grand finals, Craig McRae acknowledged some displeasure with Jack Ginnivan\u2019s decision to go the races on the night before the grand final.<\/p>\n
\u201cRead the room, Jack,\u201d said McRae, when asked if Ginnivan should have gone to the races. Just 16 days has passed since the grand final and this time Ginnivan has read the room. Unless there is another twist, he will be a Hawthorn player before the close of trades on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
What Ginnivan has discerned is that the Magpies don\u2019t want him in the room; certainly, he understands that the arrival of Lachie Schultz from Fremantle was a signal that he was no longer needed, and they were happy for him to explore his options – a reality communicated to Ginnivan and his management after the Schultz deal.<\/p>\n

The key figure behind Billings\u2019 impending move to Melbourne<\/h2>\n Further to our earlier report on Jack Billings, the move is being driven by Melbourne footy boss Alan Richardson, who was Billings\u2019 senior coach for his first six seasons.<\/p>\n
The Dees and the Saints will have to come to an agreement on who pays what of Billings\u2019 salary. The Dees\u2019 salary cap is tight.<\/p>\n
\u2018Nothing too crazy from me\u2019: Ginnivan\u2019s finals promise<\/h2>\n With Jack Ginnivan on the way out of Collingwood, I thought it\u2019d be worthwhile to read through Peter Ryan\u2019s excellent interview with him during the finals series detailing the wake-up call he received from the Magpies coaches.<\/p>\n

There will probably be no blond hair for a while, and nothing too crazy from me.\u201d<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t reckon anyone would have had the Moonee Valley night races the day before the grand final classified as \u201ctoo crazy\u201d – but here we are.<\/p>\n
EXCLUSIVE: Billings \u2018good chance\u2019 to join Dees<\/h2>\n Jack Billings is a good chance to land at Melbourne.<\/p>\n
Work is being done behind the scenes that could well see him in the red and blue next year. Billings, the No.3 pick in 2013, has been looking for another club and has two years to run on a contract he signed as a free agent in 2021, with Melbourne quietly in talks. It will not be for a high pick.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s unclear how much of the contract Melbourne would pay.<\/p>\n

Sweet is still keen to return to South Australia to play for the Power after being starved of senior opportunities at the Dogs, behind Tim English.<\/p>\n
Ginnivan to be a Hawk<\/h2>\n Jack Ginnivan will be in brown and gold by the end of the day.<\/p>\n
The Collingwood premiership forward has agreed to a trade to Hawthorn. The Pies and Hawks are working through a deal now, but a swap of future second-round picks is the centrepiece with other late picks thrown in.<\/p>\n
The record of a premiership team never playing together again stands.<\/p>\n
Nothing will be announced officially until 2pm (AEDT) at the earliest when trades can be processed.<\/p>\n
