I thought this guy was:

Nah but if you try to touch he will most likely drop at the knees and push your touch high

BL fans. Dont listen to those that have plans to destabilize us. Kids will not be traded. BTW Did you hear pendles wants out. It's that easy

Funny, all the Pies supporters are getting their panties in a bunch about it on Twitter.

"Why would you say that!! Pendles is a genius!! Don't ever say that about our captain!! It's so disrespectful!!!"

 

[SnowRoo]

So where are we now?

Back to

Pick 5
for
Beams
?

 

[Iva Bigun]

Brisbane trade pick 5 to Collingwood and pick 21 to north
North trade Greenwood to pies and pick 36 to Geelong
Pies trade beams to Brisbane
Geelong trade varcoe to north

This is a reasonable trade for all, Pies will never go for it

It's the curious mindset of a decent percentage of Collingwood supporters that anything that concerns their club is actually directed at them. The tweet was meant to appease Brisbane supporters and show how easy it is for rumours to get perpetuated.

As for the claims of unprofessionalism - spare me. We don't have a president who can air his grievances on air at the drop of a hat. We don't have media mouthpieces like Jon Ralph and Glenn McFarlane who run club PR virtually verbatim. We're taking every opportunity ATM to be seen and heard. Seems a few opposition supporters are keen for us to remain virtually invisible.

And Leppa is showing himself as a coach most players would love to play under.

Too late, North have offered a 2nd for Pendles .......... should get it done!

 

[Wargreymon90]

Do people honestly think beams is worth pick 5 AND redden. Waaaay overs. Redden is a gun

Pick 25 and redden is closer to the mark.

All I can say is that great work Leppa!

 

[TradeDraft]

Be No Trade Today as both Clubs are not even close to Agreeing on a Trade

 

[whatboutbob]

Nah, Pies are only dragging it out for the sake of appearance.

It'll get done.

Yep, because a "decent percentage" of Collingwood's 80,000 members all post on twitter.

Otherwise, good form from Leppo!

not unless bris come up with the player coll want it won't

the crows, suns and dogs have all provided recent examples of weak clubs, demonstrating that the players run the joint rather than the board and management with the players shafting their coach in each example. i hope even more now after hearing about mccartney that the pies don't become the next example of a weak club being dictated to by its players, and make beams see out his contract if the lions don't come up with the trade the pies want - beams will be back if they go down that path, as he won't be giving up 600K+ and walking away from footy for a season, and he will have to adhere to all of the terms of his contract if he wants to get paid. show him who's boss and make a statement to the rest of the list

however despite leppo's brave words, it does sound like the lions are about to come to the party. i suspect more will be revealed in the next hour or so

 

[SnowRoo]

Want 23 for PLG
Want 5 + Aish
Offering 30 for Levi

Net result could be

Varcoe

go Pies.

forcing a player to stay at a club whilst his dad is fighting for his life...

players would be be queuing up to play for a club with that sort of culture...

You must be new to the situation.

 

[Lion for Life]

You must be new to the situation.

Nah, he's really not, your club is denying a young mans potential last days with his father.

 

[crespo007]

You must be new to the situation.

not really, lions had a mass exodus last year in case you missed it

now every player agrees it has been the best thing for the club. all players at the club WANT to be there

I liked it. I liked the fact that Leppa dispelled the Redden rumour. I liked the fact that he says the kids are off limits. I liked the fact a tongue-in-cheek line was used to bring a bit of humour to a tense situation. More coaches should use the social media platform to engage with fans. This is all notwithstanding the Americanisation of destabilise

This is correct but it appears Brisbane are unwilling to trade a quality senior player full stop.

 

[The Flying Belgian]

Fair enough. Call it the vocal minority then.

 

[Wargreymon90]

I think it's fair enough though. Why lose a key player when they're the ones who want to stay?
