Traded Jaidyn Stephenson [traded with Bosenavulagi and #39 to North for #26, #33 and 2021 R4]

Why are we doing this. Slightly off topic rant here but I do not get our club. We opt to pass on Riccardi last draft when we needed a Key Forward and had an extra spot (If we didn't re-sign Dunn) so it was likely we still land Rantall, Bianco and Ruscoe alongside him.

Now onto this year. I think it was fair to ask the question to Treloar of trading him as his wife was moving to another state but why force him out very late when clubs couldn't prepare to sign him and he was adamant on staying. Same goes for Stephenson, why force a rising star out who has shown tremendous promise as a forward and who wants to be at the club and is young.

Why not instead, look at moving on De Goey, who mind you, wouldn't have wanted to stay at the club if he got the extra money from another club who is probably going to leave in 2 years anyway. Why not force out the bloke who has indecent assault charges against this name and has attitude issues for a future 1st as I'm sure one team would want him. Why not force a Mason Cox out? Why not try move on some older blokes like Thomas or Hoskin-Elliott and other older blokes on larger contracts. Or, even look at trying to move Beams with a first round pick to a team that could absorb his contract in a salary dump, like they do in the NBA. But instead we force someone out who actually wants to play for us.

As for trying to sign players. Why not try and steal Jeremy Cameron from Geelong as they don't want to pay him his fair worth. We could try swoop him like Sydney did with both Tippett and Franklin. Instead, we put our hand out for players like Neville Jetta and Lochie O'Brien. Both of which are not best 22, nor even close to it nor will they be.

Good work at ruining a premiership contender, Collingwood Football Department.

Yes it makes you wonder what the hell is going on down there, there are any number of players we could ask to leave so why ask one of our most promising young players to go.

Pies should be able to trade 16 and their 2021/1 for something more juicy you'd imagine.

Yes.

Our 2021 1st for WBD's pick 14 is clearly a win-win. Probably we need a little sweetener since we're expected to decline, especially if we don't have Treloar/Stephenson.

We can then turn 14 and 16 into one of Essendon's picks most likely (which is not worth it for us, since the qualities are roughly the same, but our list managers aren't exactly bright).

I genuinely do not understand. On top of previously bad decisions such as Beams (I was personally happy o pay one firs rounder but not 2) and Grundy 7 years at 1 million (4 years would've been much more appropriate). We genuinely ruined one of the comps best lists. It stars at the top. Eddie needs to go and Bucks could follow if we don't start to play a more attractive brand of footy (Like how we did in 2018).

I think we might struggle to find the Value to match a bid for Daicos.

Yeah i think it's time for Ed to move on, i'd give Bucks another season and if he doesn't make top 4 i'd move him on too.

It's definitely gonna be an uphill battle to find the points, but still think it's easily achievable.

Assuming he gets a bid in the top 3, factoring in the 20% discount, we probably only need to find another mid 2nd to get enough points even without a first.

I don't think ladder position is an issue. It is just about playing a good style of footy while getting the players to buy in. EVen if we miss the finals, if we stop handballing backwards and recapture some of what we have in 2018, I'll be happy.

Channel 10 saying our offer is a second round pick.

 

[Wild Bill]

Sometimes it's just better for posters to stay silent.

Adelaide's youth is horrendous. Simpkin, LDU & Thomas are better then all of your kids.

Didn’t we kicked the highest score in 2020 against the Crows? 70 point win? Yeah goldfish memories in SA.

 

[Psicosis]

Second rounder you beauty. Least your cap will be fixed pie nuffs.

Forward line of Stephenson Tarryn Thomas and Elijah Holland’s is going to be epic

Don’t Worry, not gonna happen.

we will either get another pick in addition to your 2nd, or we will get pick 11

Hard to tell whether you are genuinely trolling Pies fans or you are deluded enough to believe that The Pies would settle for a 2nd round pick for their best/most proven young player.

I believe Channel 10 are reporting this will be done, it is not just the poster trolling.....

Two Things - 1 Rob Waters is a nuffie, Victoria's version of Tim Hossage

2 - He said that won't be enough, Collingwood would want earlier pick(s)

Very happy to be proven wrong, but as I say, I wouldn't trust a bar of what Rob Waters says.

Should really help you make the most of your 12 inside 50s a game......

Sure, but the poster you criticised is not saying second round pick out of thin air to stir the Pies supporters.

Once again, you should be banned from these trade threads after being the only oppo supporter that believed crouch should get pick 2. You genuinely have NFI.

Okay President Trump, whatever you say.

He pretty much called them nuffs/nuffies. If that isn't trolling I'll go he.

15th vs 9th in the stat.

You are saying that from a real position of strength.

 

[catman2006]

Clear as day pies have major cap problems all depends who they lose to who they keep, but the longer it all goes on the worse picks pies will get

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Sheesh.

Also it seems weird that another club can make a higher (financial) offer for a player still in contract.

Still good luck to North if they can pull it off.

Isn’t that is what he already is on? We are just giving a longer contract.
