yet people who were listening to sen at the time didn't hear anything. time we stop posting quotes from that site.

"GWS is believed to be interested in Beams’ services in a move that could cap a massive trade period for the Giants."

From the Herald Sun.

It's trade period mate, if you wait around for confirmed info it takes away all the fun.
 
It would seem that the complicated deal for Beams fell through because Geelong wouldn't accept 30 and 48 for Christensen.

Fair enough.
So, in actual fact Brisbane chose Christensen over young Beams who anxiously was hoping to be reunited with his sick family........Let me see if I read this right, Brisbane caused the deal to fail in taking Christensen.

Tweet that!

Wow Brisbane put their pursuit of Bundy ahead of getting Beams reunited with his dying father and brother. When they have the opportunity to get Christensen in the preseason draft this year if they can't come to an agreement with Geelong. My heart goes out to the Beams family glad our club cares about its players.
 
I hope Eddie, when the time is right, unleashes pure venom on swann, and lepper.

Honestly, have we ever come across such a smug football club with overinflated sense of reality and self worth?

After this week id be happy to Palm off beams for a solitary pick 4 just to to spite both Brisbane and Connors/beams camps.

After all this I think beams will go gws or gc. both gc and ges have plenty we could work with.
 
That statement has big balls. Big big big balls. The clubs knackers must be hanging ankle level now. Massive balls.

In all seriousness, I love you Collingwood. Thanks for the incredible week of humor that was the lions delusion. Brilliant comedy.

Did I mention you have giant goolies maggies?

Proud as punch of my (our) club.
Bring on 2015.
Floreat pica indeed
I could not have said it any better!

Although he was my favourite player what was made as clear as at 5.05 today is that the CLUB Is and always be bigger than any individual!

As everyone has stated very proud of "OUR" club today.

Love you Pies!

If I had twitter it would be my biggest tweet
 
Breaking this down:
5, 21, 25 for Beams, 30, 48
Varcoe for Lumumba

25 on traded for Greenwood
30, 48 on traded to Geelong

So from our perspective what's different to 5, 25 for Beams is a nine pick down grade for picks 30, 48. Seems a big compromise by the 'pies.

I agree, sounds very odd to me. From our perspective if we wanted pick 5, Greenwood and Varcoe as the article suggests, you would go like this.

Varcoe Deal - Lumumba to Melbourne, Clarke to Geelong, Varcoe to Pies
Greenwood Deal - pick 25 to North for Greenwood (from Brisbane for Beams)
Pick 5 - for Beams (from Brisbane)

I'd be very surprised if we needed to add anything for Varcoe, certainly not 30 and 48.

I reckon this deal sounds like it came from Schwab's bullshitting gob.

Absolutely and I've politely told them that over in the Beams thread on the main board.;)

If that trade went down I'm pretty sure we wouldn't of been able to use 30 + 48 due to list constraints so they are worthless to us

30 and 48 was going to Geelong for Christensen.

5, 21 to us with 25 passed on to North for Greenwood.

Geelong wouldn't accept picks 30 and 48 for Christensen.
