"We have not been sitting on our hands".....is what someone who knows a bit told me.

 

[golazo]

Sigh... are we ever going to win a flag by signing duds like these? The recruiters must've thought they were getting his brother Clay

 

[NT.Thunder]

Collingwood have been working on a deal with another club for some time. Beams will not be playing for us or Brisbane next year.

Let me guess - Sydney and the AFL have trumped us on that

 

[PepperFace]

The Collingwood football club is happy to announce the retention of its main trade week target. Congratulations Dayne and we hope you love it here with all of your mates!

Ahhh I was waiting till 5pm to do this.

 

[SugarCoat]

A third club was always going to be involved.

 

[MyManLynch]

35 minues till we wave bye bye to Brisbane!

This is how I will be waving...

Don't do this jmac, you're usually pretty good for info.

I reckon we have a gun on our hands

And quite evidently the intellect of a peanut. Welcome to the club Peanut

 

[eddiebankbalance]

Yeah, but where?

I just use word association, and if I want a GIF, just type word (or context) into google and click images. The image above was in relation to a poster saying something like, 'worst draft ever, wake me up when it's finished' so I typed into google "hit me with a sledge hammer GIF"

 

[zorbadunde]

Treloar?? No surely not.

Guys this is a legitimate question. Hearing Balme talk today, he was confident a 3 way trade for varcoe Clark and H would happen with a throw around of picks. Pretty sure those picks wouldn't be significant for greenwood, in fact you guys may have to give up one, a late one at that.(just guessing of course)
Where does this leave you with greenwood? Has north honestly knocked pick 29 or 30 on the head?

 

[Baird]

I reckon its the tattoos, Swan has been underrated by the media a fair bit of his career.

I think it's because of Beams has been surrounded by Pendlebury, Swan, Ball etc his whole career and Griffen has been carrying Footscray for years.

 

[Good_Old]

Poor Crawb, he was only venting his frustrations that Brisbane didn't land the big fish they were after.

No need to report him.

 

[PhiloBeddoe]

Now, would I listen to Pickering or Wallace?
**** that's a hard one.
Pickering said that 5 and 25 wouldn't get it done. He's someone who knows a thing or ten about the current climate. As for Wallace, well, it is Terry of course.

Has that future all Australian look to him

North hasnt said anything about it yet

 

[MeisterBot]

Hoping he puts some good runs on the board in the VFL next year. After losing Kyle Martin, some grunt in the middle is appreciated!

 

[noideaatall]

yeah, well not that excited about this new recruit. What we want is players that want nothing more than to play for us. That and the ability to act accordingly as a highly played professional.

Both North and Collingwood have adults running their clubs, well be fine thanks for the concern.

 

[Dylz48]

Griffin significantly better than Beams what a laugh

I feel like us holding out has made it ok for opposition supporters to significantly underrate beams

There are two Players in the comp who averaged at least 27 disposals 6 clearances 5 tackles and 1 goal a game this year
Beams and G Ablett

 

[Pera]

This board has never looked better atm.

 

[mike123]

Has that future all Australian look to him

Will struggle though to get in the AA with all the Brisbane guns going around.

 

[PieBeast]

Sorry, you're not getting any of our potential kids!

What about pick 30 and Blair?

 

[Old Spice]

So you're suggesting that you can make the biggest offer and that no club has ever paid part of the salary of another club's player. OK then!

Absolutely. I'd be paying another club part of the salary in exchange for a pick upgrade in order to give them the capacity to meet any ND contract demand.
