[Jafo]

Sorry to be a nuisance but head over to the cats board.

There now complaining that the pies are blocking player movement and calls will be made to the aflpa to get some favours called in

You mean calls to Danger

 

[YouBeauty]

Argh, our football list management is absolutely trash. Still. Leaks everywhere.

We are desperate sellers of Grundy. Everyone knows we will cave. Why wouldn't Melbourne play hardball? If Wright knew he didn't want him, why not sell him last year when we could have gotten a first round pick or two and maybe even the other team paying all the salary. Nope, let's wait until he gets injured for a year and is at his lowest possible value point.

Frampton, the Crows know we pretty much need him now as a key back and ruck replacement, so they can ask for way more than he is worth.

Ok, let's learn from the lessons of the past and not lock ourselves into any long term contracts for anything but absolutely proven, professional and consistent players...5 years for DeGoey and McStay you say? What could go wrong?

5 years for Degoey is a no brainer. I bet you cheered the goals he kicked in finals.

 

[Superstar swan]

Rooting for you guys big time in this one. Everything about that club reeks of smugness

 

[Quicky]

As hilarious as it would be to shaft the Dees. I'd rather have Mitchell on the list in 2023 over Grundy.

Or both

 

[VinnieB]

Sorry to be a nuisance but head over to the cats board.

There now complaining that the pies are blocking player movement and calls will be made to the aflpa to get some favours called in

But I thought they don't rate him?

 

[Jekyll and Hyde]

Just a shout out to all of the Geelong and Melbourne supporters perusing through this thread tonight, “F*** You and your lowball offers.”

 

[Superstar swan]

But I thought they don't rate him?

Yea didn't rate him enough to be whispering sweet nothing's in his ear for 2 years

 

[Mick F]

Yeah agreed, but I think with McStay and Bobby then add Mitchell we have the side to win it all next year. I agree we need future forwards, but not next year.

As McStay, Bobby and Mitchell haven’t cost us much in trades we are likely to still be able to draft some young talent. GW is playing a deft hand.

 

[Apex36]

That'd be some deal. I've read it but I'm still having trouble believing it.

Not sure why. Brodie spread his contract over 2 years at Freo without even getting the extra year and $$ for security, which is a much worse deal.

 

[Quicky]

Not sure why. Brodie spread his contract over 2 years at Freo without even getting the extra year and $$ for security, which is a much worse deal.

Maybe I'm conditioned to every player being a greedy ****. We can call it the Grundy, Beams, Henry syndrome or GBH for short.

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

5 years for Degoey is a no brainer. I bet you cheered the goals he kicked in finals.

It looks good now, but Grundy for 5 years prob looked good a couple of years ago too. Things can change quickly. And why the hell wouldn't I have cheered? Does cheering mean I support the 5 year deal? Does cheering mean I support DeGoey unequivocally and want him to take as much money as he wants? He has hardly been a Geelong style "take less for the team" kind of player.

 

[Mick F]

5 years for Degoey is a no brainer. I bet you cheered the goals he kicked in finals.

Blokes like Roughead and Noble get you there. Elliotts and De Goeys win ‘em.

 

[Superstar swan]

Great debut off season for the #mackattack if he misses out on henry ( much better player than bruhn) and get stuck with a pick they got in a trade that the lions assaulted them

 

[KJpie]

Pick 33 they can trade to a club for a future 2nd which unlocks the future 1st to be traded.

I don't think they can Beeg as the Cats traded out their future 2nd, 3rd & future 4th to Brisbane to piss us off.
So they would need to bring back all 3 x futures i.e. future 2nd, 3rd & future 4th to trade out their future 1st

 

[lyfsux]

I really don't get this idiot Collingwood rejects 25 because its not 1st round

how the f#ck does pick 33 improve the offer its still not 1st round

 

[danielnajdek]

I really don't get this idiot Collingwood rejects 25 because its not 1st round

But points mate don't forget the points.

 

[Scud2]

I think the most frustrating part about the Ollie situation is that we likely would have accepted pick 18 and GWS would have likely accepted 25 for Bruhn

I genuinely think they get their trades the wrong way around in terms of what picks to deal combined with who is the more valuable player at this stage.

 

[Jafo]

Rooting for you guys big time in this one. Everything about that club reeks of smugness

We just won’t talk about Papley

 

[Superstar swan]

We just won’t talk about Papley

In the side mate

Geelong see us as a threat and they don't see GWS as one.

 

[soreplums]

how the f#ck does pick 33 improve the offer its still not 1st round

They’ll need to package them up and find a first rounder

 

[swoop42]

Jackson is gone so unless Melbourne can convince a Lobb or Meek to nominate them as an option we now have some genuine bargaining power because as it stands Melbourne haven't fulfilled our requirement for a pick inside the top 25 for Grundy. We aren't the bad guy here.

As I see it they now have 4 options to choose from.

1. Seek out an alternative to Grundy.
2. Swap their pick 13 for our 16 as part of the deal.
3. Add a future 2nd round selection to sweeten the pot.
4. Reduce our yearly salary contribution by $100,000.

Hopefully Wright stands firm on the deals for both Grundy and Henry and either gets an improved offer or we walk away.

 

[Bloben]

They’ll need to package them up and find a first rounder

But then they would decide that their new first rounder is untouchable and offer us pick 104

 

[JM#1]

They’ll need to package them up and find a first rounder

I wouldn't be handing over a first rounder in this draft for those picks.

 

[Gabbo64]

I genuinely think they get their trades the wrong way around in terms of what picks to deal combined with who is the more valuable player at this stage.

Is it possible Geelong spoke too early without putting their brain in to gear on the Henry deal? If they thought,F*ck, we don't want to do this deal this year, they may have f*cked up the pick swap so they could postpone until next year...
