Attached is the segment where they discuss Stephenson. Interesting listening. Also they also comment on what has been reported on other Forums that our TPP is about to explode, and despite the fact that Beam's has retired, there apparently has been no settlement reached and if it is not settled by tomorrow 31/10/20, being the end of the years salary cap, his wages will roll into next year. Clubs are aware there is a fire sale at Collingwood and clubs are circling for our talent.


I read this thread all the time, but try not to comment. Mainly because a lot of the trade speculation turns out to be just that - speculation. But the rumour? gossip? made up story? about Stephenson has sent me into a spiral of despair. And then I read your post. Fire sale at the Pies? Geezus.

Wow. Surely not. Apparently our offer was better and we can’t afford Treloar. C’mon.

If this is true the Giants won’t match that will they? Take pick 10 and move on.

Our offer was better? How so?

And I'd match it and bend the Cats over.
 
I'm now leaning towards us wanting to pay all of Beams out in 2021 and front-loading any possible contracts and essentially starting again in 2022. Otherwise I've got no other ideas.

I don't think the Club has any idea either
 
I think I saw the same story but you'd think it would just take one player manager to tell the media "Collingwood offered over 1m" for the "Collingwood cap is bursting" story to disappear.

I think you're giving the media too much credit, plus it's their job to generate interest. What better way to do that than to report on Collingwood no matter how false the statement. Sure whips us into a frenzy, myself included. :tearsofjoy:
 
That was the story coming out of the media when he nominated Geelong as his preferred destination.

That we were offering more than the cats? More than a million a year? How can we offer that and be in trouble with the salary cap?

How good is this time of year though?
 
Why have we not Signed Cam McCarthy yet ;)

We've already missed out on Aidan Corr...
