Not 2015 picks, though. They don't need them.
Aish is outside with v good skills - fits our need perfectly. Pies need better ball users

Well done Pickers, that's why you are one of the best in the business.
Your move Brisbane.
Your move Brisbane.
Still hurting over losing him?2012 I think....from memory. He had a pretty good year that year after Luke Ball did his knee and Beamer was released into the midfield. So....yeah....I reckon he's got Tony Rocksmith covered....(but only by the length of the Flemington Straight)
I'd prefer full free agency to the palaver we have at the moment. The clubs that are attractive will do just fine.So...it'll get done then?
Dunno why we have to have all this drama really.
Just let Pickers and Conners decide where everyone's going and get it over in a day

- There can be only one...
No pressure on our side, Bastinac has 2 years to run, if a deal isn't done, he ponies up for another season.
If Brisbane get Collingwood's 2nd rounders, they will be used up first paying for their academy players, they claim they have the points to cover them without Collingwood's second round picks, so they are not really offering them any value, they will be going to the draft with lower quality picks... it is why they want 2 second round picks for next year.
If Collingwood can't get a deal Brisbane want, then Aish will face the option of re-signing with Brisbane, going into the draft and rolling the dice or accept a trade to us. I think we want to see what the outcome of the Aish trade is before we decide to trade or not, or what to trade for.
I am sure Collingwood can coax a future 2nd round pick from some other club. Not a lot of time left but time to swing the deal.

Brisbane's made their move. It's now up to Collingwood.
If Bastinac wants to go to Brisbane and North and Brisbane agree on a deal there's nothing Pickering can do. There is a deal in place apparently, Bastinac, Pick 38, Pick 40 for Pick 17. The only reason North and Brisbane haven't executed that trade is because they both hope Aish will agree to a move to North. In that case, the deal will be Aish for Bastinac and a second rounder (either this year or 2016)

Lose Aish for nothing and miss out on Bastinac... I'm fine with that lol
Bag them all you want, but they still finished higher on the ladder than both of our clubs.

Risking?
He has two clients in this scenario. It's in everyone's best interests to reach an outcome not just for one of his clients.
In fact, he has a very good track record of getting his clients to where they want to go.

Brisbane won't walk away....they want Bastinac badly. Collingwood want Aish.
Brisbane also will like Collingwood's future second rounder and possibly another.
There's no chance of Brisbane walking away from anything so Im not sure why things like this are mentioned. Talking tough doesn't get deals done.
True but none of us won a flag this year.
The question is who is closer to winning a flag?
Dealing with the Pies during trade week is worse than dealing with Essendon.
With the Bombers you might pay high picks for drugies + duds but at least they do it in a timely manor.
Lol we were waiting for GWS in the Treloar deal not the other way round sunshine.
GWS had to do their deal with Carlton to get the 2nd round pick to trade back to us.
Ouch. Seeing as we aren't talking to you how would your know?
Aish has certainly hit a nerve knocking north back.

At least once more i rekon
Probably, but looks like Lions are covered for this year & need points for next year, which Pies only have one they can trade. Any thoughts Pies trade a second rounder from this year to (say) Suns for a 2016 2nd rounder ?
Your club is like an ex that won't go away and accept that it's over
