List Mgmt. Collingwood Trade Talk 2016 Part 3

[Old Spice]

I mentioned this a few weeks ago and I only mentioned it because it's 100% reliable and that is what is happening with Hrovat from the Dogs. A really good footballer who has had a tough time with injuries but in the second half of the season he tore it up for the ressies.

The media has reported that North are the front runners to get him and I can tell you that is wrong. The Blues are the front runners to get him and have been for several months now with Collingwood who is also very keen to get him.

Now I am a fan of the bloke but ffs why we are still after him when we have more than enough of his type while we are lacking a key defender has me confused. We need a key back so bad it's scary and we only have four days to get one.

The other rumor I have heard and this one is no where near as reliable as the Hrovat one is that when it was reported that Greenwood and Aish were up for trade that it was an offer to Adelaide for Jake Lever which was quickly rejected by Adelaide.

Still don't understand the decision to bypass Lever in the draft. Excellent personal qualities and very much a need with great mobility.

LOL wtf mate. Maynard a 3rd tall?? Langdon a lock down small?? Ramsay a midfielder???
You've literally got no idea. Have you watched a collingwood game ?

Ramsay a scrubby user? Not from what I witnessed.

I don't have a 'take' on it. I probably side with the belief this situation was not orchestrated, not part of the original score. Of course, the loss of Witts, Cloke, Brown, Frost, Williams and Marsh is going to unburden us of some less mobile or skilled players. But who are their replacements? Wells and Mayne are our only imports to date. Perhaps a Tomlinson style player, though more of a forward than defender, young, tall and versatile, could be acquired this week.

Frankly, I don't see that we have the bargaining power to secure a class player unless we sacrifice quality, as we had been rumoured to have done with Aish. Maybe Gubby has decided that forced player movement now warrants a mini clean-out. Hopefully next week will reveal a devious recruiting strategy has been hatching under our noses.

If it wasn't orchestrated (Marsh excepted) then it's a massive debacle no doubt. But the players involved suggest to me that it is.

Meanwhile:
'...Collingwood and the Bulldogs have a deal ready to go for Cloke, with the clubs just waiting to see which picks the Dogs have once Koby Stevens, Nathan Hrovat and Joel Hamling are traded...'

Can't wait for that ever so great pick 70 for Cloke.

They cropped out Roughy, but photoshopped Lewis out hahah

They photoshopped Rough out too... Sue they cropped at first, but then inserted a black background next to Rioli's arm where Roughy's arm was...

You've literally got no idea. Have you watched a collingwood game ?

Coz we needed 3 midfielders to replace Beams

 

[Matt_352]

Lol Maynard and Ramma are classy i rate both a lot

 

[TradeDraft]

Hearing that Aidan Corr could be part of the WHE Trade

Source Dave?

Man come on..

 

[Shaneprice97]

Jackson Trengove would be awesome at fullback.

 

[mike123]

Would rather Finlayson

Still don't understand the decision to bypass Lever in the draft. Excellent personal qualities and very much a need with great mobility.

This board would have exploded due to his injury issues and neither scharenberg or freeman had played up to that point, but I still felt at the time we should have taken him. Would have gone number 1 if not for the knee.

 

[loki04]

Yes he will in my opinion. And I seriously doubt he will be signed today.

If a club wants him why would they wait for free agency ends before trading for him?

Because it can effect their FA compo.

Brown becomes a Delisted FA and then North sign him it doesn't cut into their Wells compo.

Would be nice right now,

 

[CasuallyDressed]

Brisbane might not get him bc they have pick 21 &79 or something around that....he is probably worth 35-45 and Pies would be stupid to accept 79

Worth 50-60 at best

 

[Countrypie]

Sydney: Rampe and Aliir
Hawthorn: Gibson and Stratton, probably throw Spangher in there too once fit.

None of those are what you would call stereotypical KPDs Both Goibson and STratton were flankers/Back pockets 2 years ago. Rampe and Allie are best described in similar terms. Laidler was named CHB on Grand Final day.

 

[Matt_352]

Jackson Trengove would be awesome at fullback.

Yes he would. How do we get it done?

 

[Kappa]

Ramsay a scrubby user? Not from what I witnessed.

At VFL level definitely, in his limited AFL exposure it was decent though.

 

[Gone Critical]

Jackson Trengove would be awesome at fullback.

Is he available?

 

[good4footy]

lol no I did not.

Did you know that sick in Turkish means f&?ck and umm means C&&nt.
So when people are thinking in Turkey the make the sound ahhhh not ummmm.

Unless of course they are thinking the person is an ummmm.

 

[Anzacday]

Hearing that Aidan Corr could be part of the WHE Trade

I read that as someone's suggestion.
Do you have a source?

 

[iGNITER]

Jackson Trengove would be awesome at fullback.

Port do need to free up some cap space.
Tried offloading Hartlett but he is staying. Someone has to go you would think

[jdpie]

Either someone trades for him in the next week, or he re-signs with the Eagles. Can't see him going to the draft when nobody showed any interest in him as a FA.

he can still be delisted

 

[Ketchup]

Can't wait for that ever so great pick 70 for Cloke.

To be honest the clubs done well. Mitchell is only got pick 88
