Also had Harwood running around this year. Saw Justin Clarke hanging out there a couple of times this season as well.

Great to hear, cheers buddy. Such a shame about Clarkey. Could have been a very good footballer. Great to see he put his health first though. Wish him all the best.

Clarkey will be fine, he actually IS a rocket scientist, his intellect is wasted in footy, time to move on to NASA and fake a Mars landing Justin.
No no no this particular name change is stuffed day off at least

Over on the Collingwood board many seem to be calling time on Beams.

Hopefully he will make a full recovery given time but appearing on an AFL field again seems a fair distance away at nearly 30 years old.
 
Went to the Collingwood board to express my sympathies, can't even describe some of the..... well it's indescribable. I just had to stop work due to personal issues and wish Beamer all the best in his life.

One of their assets has become unviable going forward. Not a lot of sympathy from some for the human involved.
 
Reading one of the posters, who others say is a reliable source with connections to the club.

He’s basically said, without going in to specifics, that some of Beams behaviour has been questionable, and that the leadership group don’t want Beams back.


Now, I’m not good a keeping track of who’s in the know here at the best of times, so visiting an oppo board, I could be way off.
 
Two very distinct and separate emotions when I heard about Beams. The first an overwhelming sense of sadness and hope that he will be okay.

The second eat my shorts Eddie and bit me Pies.

A glance at the Collingwood Beams thread gives a glimpse at the absolute divisive circus the Beams situation has become. Supporters eating each other alive. The attitude towards Beams from quite a few of them would indicate that “Side by Side” is very much a marketing slogan and nothing more.

All the very best for Beamer, but really, the support he needed sensibly needed to take place outside of the mechanisms of an AFL playing roster. Collingwood have made a diabolical blunder here, and paid two first round picks for the privilege. They try to dress it up as looking after one of their own but that is nothing but spin. They got seduced by the fairy tale and broken by a last gasp grand final loss and thought he was the missing piece. Nope.
 
Someone on their board suggested that it wasn't such a bad deal for them if you looked at it as Ely Smith and Deven Robertson.Is this correct.In any event seems a pretty high price.

Nope, pick 16 will keep on giving. Traded for Power's first next year. Could be anything from pick 1 to ?
