List Mgmt. Collingwood Trade and FA

[JLC]

If we could swing a Keane for Jakob Ryan trade would people be happy?

Given what it cost to get Ryan to the club and that Keane was at our club, it feels like a loss lol

Isn't pick 6 in the draft, cursed?

Seems to be the pick that often stumps recruiters, the start of the next bracket of player.

Six and out: The history of footy's 'cursed' draft pick

Pick No.6 has seen more than its share of draft flops - but things are finally looking up

1 to 5.
6 to 10.
11 to 15.

Now this is who I would be going after..

 

[Soups]

As a supporter I would get seriously nervous about offering long term deals to players that have only played one good season.

 

[The Phantom]

I’m not super excited about Keane, but I’d do a straight swap for Ash Johnson which might be a win-win.

Yeah that’s not going to get us far in the trade.

 

[Mick F]

This is who we are into in a big way. I’m told a third or fourth rounder will get it over the line. Let’s see.

2nd rounder.

Would you take the 26 yo Ash Johnson for Keane?

 

[Vicky Park]

I will confess to being a long term fan of Mark.
His lack of experience showed out against the Swans and I think he will work well in our system.
He has aggression, pretty good poise considering his background/lack of experience and good disposal.

Yeah, me too. Saw a lot of him in the VFL when on our list, and you could see he was developing. That has continued at the Crows, and I see no reason why it won’t keep happening when - and if - he returns to the Pies.

I especially loved his aggression - or mongrel.

Does anyone else find it concerning that we're almost never genuinely in the running for the true big name stars?

Even with McRae as coach and the new environment we've created, record crowds etc etc.

It almost feels to me like we're not the actual destination club you'd think we would be

 

[Vicky Park]

Now this is who I would be going after..

How do Geelong keep doing it? Offering attractive deals to other players.

This puts me in a very bad mood.

No. Way.

Me too

I was hoping we were keeping something up our sleeve until Jen posted yesterday

 

[SchuPie]

2nd rounder.

I'd do a 2nd for Max.
Not for Keane.

Just confirming why I’ve got you ignore. A 4th rounder

 

[Doc1763]

Now this is who I would be going after..

Absolutely!!!

Not that many years ago that players ‘of colour’ found the environment less than supportive.

Same. Everyone we would need, they seem to be after & getting.

 

[cfc19902010]

Yeah that’s not going to get us far in the trade.

johnson even tho hes fallen off cliff this year has played football in his career than Keane

Source?

Stronzatello goes well with a gorgonzola source.

It's not about a lack of faith

The evidence is right there in front of everyone.

It feels like the last time a genuine star wanted to come to Collingwood and got here was Treloar? Even then we couldn't keep him lol

We’re not going to get a Bobby Hill, Tom Mitchell and Dan McStay trade period every year.

I suspect we’re waiting for a few veterans to retire and our trade capital to recover before we start chasing anyone big.

Are you sure you want to admit to that?, my half italian heritage tells me a Stronzo is a turd
