What if we get a player from another club by offering them more money?
Was the question too difficult for you?I am a loyal person and I only care about Collingwood...……...he wants to leave for more $ then I wish him nothing but a s**t career elsewhere.
That's my opinion and I am entitled to it.
He isn't a 20 year old Nathan Freeman. Jamie has been well looked after while he was on the sidelines.
This truly is a bizarre comment given the pars defect injury and his hamstring issues are well known? Strange hill to die on really.

swishName......names or leave the condescending attitude for the other kids today B J.
Is this the same Jye Bolton that was previously on our list?
If he is staying then he better pull his finger out of his a** and turn up to preseason in a better condition then last year!!...last chance saloon for Sier
What Jen said......Bucks seems confident Elliott will stay.
If the Elliot to Hawthorn rumours are true, I’d match the offer for Elliot.
Then force a trade.
Requesting Isaac Smith.
They've backed their medical staff in before - O'Meara, Scully, probably PattonTruly bizarre that a Club like Hawthorn is chasing him with all his "debilitating" injuries.
What would Hawthorn know about this stuff anyway?
He's been mentioned in previous years but Jye Bolton is one we should take late in the draft or rookie. Has several years of footy left in him. And clearly too good for the state leagues.
Adds something to the midfield group putting pressure on incumbents, or allowing us to play others like Sidebottom or Pendles in different positions, cover injuries to key midfielders better, etc.
I think he'd push for best 22. But at worst, he racks up the numbers for our VFL team in the meantime
Sorry if this has already been discussed but thoughts on Jenkins from Adelaide? Has been announced that he and Adelaide have agreed to part ways and Jenkins himself has declared he is willing to take a pay cut at another club.

Another White/Lynch.Jenkins open to ‘significant pay cut’ to leave Crows. do we want or need him. his really just another White / Lynch
My sense was the Beams deal was a long way down the track before Ned Guy stepped into the role. He had to come in and finish it off when it was something the powers that be had worked on for some time including Bucks, Beams, Steele coming together to broker a peace plan of sorts. It wasn't going to be an easy one to step away from and the Lions knew that.
Guy also had an extraordinary number of player contracts coming due within 1-2 years (maybe ~28 from memory). Hine was in over his head as the club review revealed but could be relied upon to select talent. My sense Ned Guy he has done an admirable job of extending contracts, often for lower annual amounts, in order to better manage our salary cap.
As noted, Roughead was seen as one of the better trades of the year for value. We also got Quaynor and Kelly done as highly credentialled Academy/FS picks, while also trading away our Rd 1 pick for Beams.
I think what he's managed so far is quite astute.
What Jen said......
I’m not as convinced of that being Guy’s involvement in the Beams deal. I’d be somewhat surprised if Guy didn’t play a leading hand with him coming on board in November 2017 and Phil passing in March 18.
The rest I can agree with to a certain extent.
Chrispiesssss I’m thinking you might have forgotten the thrust of my opinion? I’m on board, but Brisbane won’t be. If you think otherwise perhaps float it on their board
Eddie was suppose to be the Head Person to get Beams Back
That's what I heard. I met a guy early in the year (or was it late last year) who works for the club in a non team admin capacity area. He mentioned the story at the club was that Eddie said "get it done".Eddie was suppose to be the Head Person to get Beams Back

Why has he not been Drafted last few seasons then when he was Winning Sandovers Medals?
