Let him walk and try his luck if pick 30 is all they offer. If beams leaves and they miss on greenwood this trade period will be a huge fail for the Pies.

Any chance Greedy Leaveroos to the dogs now?
How about Greenwood + pick 16 FOR Griffen?

The logic is that by taking rubbish for a player in your best 22, then all you do is send a message that we are happy to be bent over. It's not our issue that Collingwood don't have a good enough puck, that's Collingwood's issue.Will be surprised if the Dogs don't get a better deal than that.
Beams is contracted and will be playing at Collingwood next year if not traded so I wouldn't call that a fail, not ideal however.
Greenwood isn't contracted so if he doesn't sign back on and you let him go in the PSD because you want pick 25 and not 30 then that is a fail on your end and that won't happen. Hopefully the pies do a get a pick a bit more suitable as I feel he is worth more than pick 30 but I just don't see your logic.

By you logic you should just take 5 and 25 for Beams because that's the Lions best offer.
You are kidding yourself if you think Beams being on your list next year is a good thing? He has clearly stated he wants out and doesn't want a bar of your club. Wouldn't be surprised if he sat the year out.

Greed.I still dont understand why the Pies who are after a "Established player" aren't just saying demanding the Lions to handover pick 5 and get Greenwood to the pies? It pretty much ticks all what they have demanded doesnt it? Seriously am I missing something?
I'd love for us to convince Greenwood to head North now just to really fire up the Pies.
I Promise we will take 5 + 25
Swan I don't think can get to his best again but time will tell.
About = to Sidebottom. Better defensively that Steele. Greenwood runs both ways.
Was Collingwood before North.
Played U19's and reserves at Collingwood and had his first admin job there.
Then he went to Carlton and then North, came back to Coll and left last year after a blue with Pert.
Yep - think there will be a few trades going through todayBe a Pie by end of the Day
From an article today:
Greenwood, 25, came third in North Melbourne’s best and fairest and despite playing every match for the club this season, he felt there is more opportunity at the Magpies.
"I think I'm better suited to Collingwood, I got a taste of playing in some big games this year and I'd like to play for a big club."
Maybe link the whole article where he talks about getting pushed our of the Roos midfield and that he did a number on Heppell in last years final. Good times.From an article today:

Wants to play in big games? What games are bigger than finals? I cant wait for Cunnington to give him a big don't argue and put him flat on his ass like he did to Varcoe earlier this year.
Nah, he looks shithouse.Looks pretty good in black & white.
I think the club mishandled Levi's contract but for the millionth time the Higgins signing has nothing to do with it. You're mad if you think North is using 100% of its cap right now.Don't be angry at Levi for leaving.
Your own club signing Higgins to a contract of $400 k per year for 4 years forced a loyal North man out the door.

I think it would have more to do with the fact that we let Collingwood enter the conversation with a deal far beyond his worth. That was the problem imo but if Levi isn't smart enough to realise that getting a RFA means out-paying their current team then that's his problem.It's not so much a cap issue.
Put yourself in his shoes.
You have a breakout year.
The club refuses to offer a decent contract during the year.
At the same time, it offers Higgins a locked in contract worth $400 k per year for 4 years.
Levi had every right to say they aren't taking me seriously.
