List Mgmt. Collingwood Trade and FA

[Harry O]

Garry Lyon is unbearable on SEN this morning, keeps going on about either Port keeping him or sending him to North. He really is a dinosaur when it comes to trading

Everyone is so scared of Houston getting to Collingwood
Their hated clear to see

A cautionary tale re pinning flag hopes on one player. Remember....

Brian Peake - Geelong

Chris Judd - Blose

Mike Richardson - Pies

Lance Franklin - Sydney

Gary Ablett Jnr - GC

Gary Ablett Snr - Geelong

.....

Not sure I see your point.

 

[Scud2]

Surely West Coast trading pick three would have to be the most spoken about thing in the media today. What a trade for the Blues. It’s mind-boggling that the Eagles would do it.

Not sure GC expected to win the flag with GAJ, that was more marketing.

Another example would be Beams back to Pies in 2019.

This North push is even more ridiculous than the Carlton push

He's not going to bloody North

If there was any realistic chance of him going to North it would have happened by now. He doesn't want to go to North. He'd rather stay at Port

F**K ME! Port drew a line in the sand with not dealing with us back when Stevens wanted to come to the Pies... and now this. **** THEM! Houston would be a great assett and quality player ....but not at the expense of ever dealing with Port again.

 

[Harry O]

Imagine being the number 3 pick right now? Whoever it is will be over the moon knowing they’re going to a contending Victorian club.

Lot of pressure on him though - blues have given up 2 first rounders , a second rounder and their leading small forward to land him. Wouldn’t want to be a Dow

 

[Jelly Bean]

Let them wear their prison bars for two H&A games in each of the next two years.

Not much to say. WCE think it's a good deal for them, so do Carlton - otherwise it wouldn't have been done. Time will tell.

We are forever grateful that Stevens was sent to Carlton instead. Ironically they replaced Stevens with Josh Mahoney, ex Collingwood and Bulldogs reject who spent three years in the VFL before Power desperately picked him up in the PSD. He was a premiership player in 2004. Moral of the story there’s always an out.

We will move on if the trade fails but I doubt it will. Their beef is probably with the suns not with us. I doubt there’s any Ill-will unlike 2003.

That’s why we’re after Houston. We don’t want to pin our hopes on Nick alone.

24 back to Suns then on-traded to Port?

The way that is phrased makes it sound as if Richmond will be adding 6 & 23 without sending a pick back, which would be madness

 

[tmpies01]

But the deal had fallen through already according to the media

This is from Cal Twomey.

I mean it seems obvious

Look at the insanity going on at West Coast and Gold Coast

Both coached by former Richmond coaches and both absolutely bending over to help out Richmond. You don't need a tinfoil hat for this one lol

 

[Mostfamousclub_Pies]

**** Port, they are still salty that they didn’t get Buckley back as their inaugural captain.
As for Houston, if we don’t get him I’m not too concerned, he’s a half back flanker. They grow on trees.

 

[tmpies01]

How could this be our issue??

 

[NMBB]

Not sure I see your point.

There's a certain "flavour" at least on this board that getting Houston almost guarantees a flag - history suggests other clubs going down the same path have failed - not to say that Houston wouldn't be a great get if that happens.....

There's also a certain flavour that a speculative pick at 36 is preferable to getting Houston.

Sounds good to me, but what’s the point of trading for 23 only to give back 24?

Haha for clicks mate.

Of course it doesn't guarantee a flag. Gives us a better shot though.

 

[LuckyLee]

Both the Rioli and Lukosius trades should be walked back to less generous terms.

Unfortunately that won’t happen.

There's something weird about Shifter saying he has watched these boys over the fence.

I mean I know footy in a nutshell is watching players over a fence, but... yeah... I don't know.
