News Dan Houston traded to Collingwood

[PowerBaz]

Maybe they can throw in Frampton.

 

[Papa G]

Don't love it, don't hate it. F1 is overpaying for Luko if we are taking his full salary. And would still rather turn North's F1 into a couple of first rounders this year.

Is pick 13 this year really ging to be better than pick 3/4/5 next year?

 

[ploppy]

North lose: 2, 25, North F1
North gain: 6, 29, Houston

Port lose: 39, Port F1, Houston
Port gain: 14, North F1, Lukosius

GC lose: 29, Lukosius
GC gain: 39, Port F1

Richmond lose: 6, 14
Richmond gain: 2, 25

Thoughts on this?

North are happy, GC are happy, Richmond are happy. Is Port? Your F1 is probably around 16. North's F1 is probably around 4.

not to bad but the 29 should go to port as well

“5 player deal” man we still gunna get Atkins. What have we become

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Norths future 1st on it's own is good enough.

Nah - its good but its a gamble in what's being called a shit, compromised draft. Norf could go up the ladder, especially with another year in to Warlord, Sheezel etc, a soft fixture and Dan ****ing Houston. We've always said two firsts.

 

[chachi11]

We will cave for some bullshit F4 pick added to the pile of shit and call it a win.

 

[bringbackbucky]

Hope Tredders is ready to pull rank...

 

[Jojay]

Code for:

Houston will still land at collingwood and we will still somehow end up with the Atkins bloke fml

 

[Ford Fairlane]

They've come this far, they will find a way to get it done. This was always going to be reanimated. A better player than Atkins would help.

 

[Harlott]

Just a reminder the last time we played hardball (Nick Stevens), the footy gods rewarded us the following season.

Don't bend over now Ports

I see where you’re going with that.

Take Atkins as a salary dump but remove the future first. Only way the deal looks semi okay (ignoring the fact we just traded one of our best players to a premiership contender)

 

[Jojay]

I really don't want Houston getting to Collingwood.

100%. Anywhere but with those f***ers.

 

[YoungsterPA]

the future first from us just cant be part of the deal, taking on 2 salary dumps from GC (reality of what it is) and paying for the privilege is horrendous.

 

[chachi11]

Can we start negotiations with removing Atkins from this ridiculous trade....thanks.

 

[KrispyKremeMullanikka]

Jesus Christ, Port learn how to block people phone numbers, especially Paul Connors and any fücker from Collingwood Football Club. Fück!

 

[Powerade 08]

Luko and Richards being tied to the shitty deal makes it more and more likely we take it. We havent got time to negotiate anything else for them.

Smart stuff

 

[Jojay]

Cmon norf. Do something

 

[QPower]

Collingwood simply don’t have anywhere near enough trade capital to acquire Houston.

Unless that changes, we are going to be shafted if we proceed.

 

[KrispyKremeMullanikka]

Maybe they can throw in Frampton.

That’s haram. Just keep Dan at this point.

 

[Chrizzt]

Is pick 13 this year really ging to be better than pick 3/4/5 next year?

Wouldn't do it for 13 alone. Something like 10 + 13 I'd go for - not sure how it gets done. Keeping North's F1 certainly not a bad outcome either.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

 

[gbear]

We need to keep our F1. We need to stop giving our first-round pick away year in and year out. We wouldn't be partaking in this charade if we hadn't traded this years first round away for some duds!

 

[pastmyprimus]

I’ve already accepted that an updated deal involving Port, Collingwood and GC will get signed off by Port. So I’m getting in an early melt.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

I bet the new deal will be worse than the first.

 

[Chrizzt]

C4[2]Yo`DooR how's the North deadline coming along?
