Goldsack will sign a 1 year deal post trade period. Sounds like it’s been agreed but he’s aware the club is tied up with trade week so happy to wait his turn. He’s also happy that Langdon and Moore have recommitted to the club.

Goldy, 1 year deal, will become official after trade period, has had some more surgery, relieved that Langdon has re-signed.
Not sure if still in the race for May or just being used to keep Melbourne honest...
I fully expect May to drop the "staying the contract and see if there's any improvement" ... The Lynch line.

You don’t think Beams might be more likely to push out Aish, or Mayne, or Greenwood????
If our list can stay healthy (finally) adding Beams edges us into premiership favouritism for 2019 I'd say, doesn't mean much as we gotta perform and climb the mountain again, but Beamer makes us a 2-3 goal better side then our 2018 squad.

Nah wouldn't get as many bites with these guys because this is closer than pushing a rising star to the bench

Prioritise May over Beams please.
Pick 18 and a second rounder next year is overs for a player who will be 29 before he pulls the boots on for us again - as much as I'd love to see it.

Yeah I’m not sold on this. I think a fit Reid or Moore provides more benefit. Beams and Gaff will essentially cancel each other out being added to both GF lineups from this season but Moore fit in particular sees us take make ground on WCE.
We still have to get through a tougher fixture next season
Maybe that fantasy 3 way trade got us May instead of pick 2!

Without trading out some players we were never really in a position to compete for any of the big name free agents.
Personally I'm happy to have retained Moore and (to a slightly lesser degree Langdon as I never really thought he would leave) - Roughead will be a useful low cost pick up and I think we can get someone good at pick 18.
We just need a little luck with any bid for Quaynor not coming before our pick and we'll come away with a very solid draft haul with three kids rated inside the top 35-40.
The onus is on our medical and fitness staff getting Wells, Moore and Elliott up and running and keep them on the paddock, with the goal being that the three of them play 17-18+ games, assuming they'll need to be managed and miss a game here and there.
If we can manage that then they are virtually new recruits who can perform at a high level - add that to this year's team which was competitive with anyone and the forced development in a number of the younger / newer players in the squad and we will have a strong best 22, excellent depth and a strong system.
Sometimes you don't need to tear everything up to take a step further forward and I think we're in that situation now.

Heart and soul.
Only way I see it happening and clubs accept the offers are-
Pick 18 & 2019 2nd & exchange of more picks for Beams
2019 1st & JT/Smith/Oxley for May (wishful thinking tho)

If we get Elliot back that would make a huge difference. De Goey more in the middle would be better than Beams in my view in terms of the explosiveness he provides.
Prefer May but can't see us satisfying them without climbing up the draft this year and then all the Quaynor and Kelly business. Beams is most realistically our big fish option and probably does improve us a bit. The person managing injuries will be the most important part of Collingwood's personnel in 2019.
