Yeah think he should be kept
If we go deep into the finals again next year, none of our first will get any of those players. Going to take top five picks alone, not points.Can’t believe people willing to give up 2 first rd picks for Beams. People saying he was Captain, Brisbane’s best player blah blah blah. The guy is 29 years old. NO player at 29 is worth 2 first rd picks. 2 first round picks gets you a future gun player before his prime. Not Beams who will have 1 maybe 2 good seasons before the game goes passed him. I’ll be pissed tomorrow if that’s what we offer and get him. If we’re open to trading 2 first rd picks throw them at a players like Josh Kelly,Lachie Whitfield, Jermery Cameron, Steven May etc.
Let’s not pretend IQ or Kelly are in the same conversation as those guys please...But you do get an Isaac Heeney, Callum Mills or Darcy Moore with points.
This years isn’t top 10. Do you think Adelaide expected to end up with pick 8 this year?Here we go. First round picks, first round picks, first round picks blah blah blah
Pick 18 is barely a first round pick. Next years most likely will barely be first round.
These aren’t top 10 picks we’re talking.
Don’t undersell Brisbane, they will be a very good football side next year. Regardless of the Beams situationWhilst I Initially I didn’t want to give next years first, if we get the 2nd round back I’d be ok with it.
People need to stop getting caught up with ‘first’ round, and consider likely pick numbers. For arguments sake, let’s say our first next year is around pick 14. And the Lions 2nd round pick us around 24. We would be getting Beams and 24 for 18 and a 10 pick downgrade next year, and still get IQ (regarded as end of first/start of second), and Kelly (mid second).
Take the pissing contest out, both clubs win there. One might do slightly better than the other, but the whole point of a good negotiation is a bennificial outcome to both parties. Not who ‘wins’ the trade. Both clubs get a good outcome, that’s what matters.
Only if it performsOur midfield is going to be ridiculous next year.
Brisbane are spot on in asking what they are asking.
No need to rip in to them. He is contracted and to get a contacted player that captained the club for half of this season you will have to over pay.
Just because we aren't getting him for what we want doesn't mean Brisbane are doing anything wrong.
The most and fairest trade for Beams would be a first rounder and future first rounder for Beams and second round or third round pick.
It's almost just about spot on that.
Could happen, Rossy Lyon did that to us and it worked out ok in the end.Beams, at the moment, is not worth 2 first rounders. I hope we walk away.
This years isn’t top 10. Do you think Adelaide expected to end up with pick 8 this year?
He must hate the media, considering he jumped a fence to avoid them.It's crazy that Ned has only been on Trade Radio for 2 or 3 sentences last Monday, and otherwise we haven't heard him talk. I'm actually genuinely curious as to how he presents himself! Maybe he just sits at the trade table and stares at the other team to see who blinks first? Literally?
Best sentence to use noobs...I'm laughing way too hard!If we had two firsts from this year we’d be getting May not Beams. What a bunch of noobs.
The whole club has been told to not say a word.It's crazy that Ned has only been on Trade Radio for 2 or 3 sentences last Monday, and otherwise we haven't heard him talk. I'm actually genuinely curious as to how he presents himself! Maybe he just sits at the trade table and stares at the other team to see who blinks first? Literally?
I’m sure Adelaide thought the same when they got Gibbs...Getting Beams would go a long way towards making sure next year’s first is still in the teens.
On this, how many team’s pillows do we need to fluff?It's Brisbsne that need this trade done asap. Beams wants out. They've promised Neale. They need 18.
So why the f@#k are we the ones seemingly over the barrel?
This was the perfect opportunity to stand our ground and see who blinks first.
Ned guy could set up a banana lounge and drink cocktails waiting for Brisbane to cave in to 2018 1st and 2019 2nd ( with late picks coming back)
Instead it sounds like we're going to be 'charitable' ...again.
Collingwood- trade bunnies.
