So the deal before us was picks 5, 21 and 25 for Beams, 30 and 48, according to the Age.

I've got to be honest, I'd have taken that deal. Even if it meant missing out on Christensen.

I think that's a pretty good deal for us.

That's an insanely good deal for you. Pick 5 for one of the best young midfielders in the comp plus an upgrade of a few mediocre picks? Pick 5 might not even play a single AFL game

I think there's a gulf between pick 48 and pick 21, to be fair. Anyone who gets taken from 40 onwards there's a fair chance only one club would've taken them at all.

Nevertheless, I'd have done that deal if it was truly on the table.

I doubt GWS will trade for a bloke that wants to go to Queensland to be with his sick father and GC don't have any room in their salary to afford Beams.

At GWS it will be all about doing the Griffin trade

Agree. I justify it by thinking of it as a 6-team trade, and that Geelong declined it at 30+48 for Christensen...imo Greenwood's the only hand we've got now...

Already committed to Christensen. Have him coming up for a medical exam. Can't just stop him half way and send him back because pick 21 is taken.

Well pick 21 would be downgraded to 30, and 25 to 48.

I'm sure anyone from Brisbane would take that deal in a heartbeat... we would be getting robbed though
 
If Collingwood would have done that deal on Monday or Tuesday instead of wanting Redden or Hanley it might have got done before Christensen had requested a trade.

I would only do it if Geelong had of taken 30 + 48 for Christensen, which wasn't the case.

Otherwise 21 for Bundy and using 5 + 25 is better, we did the right thing.

5 + 25 is still there and maybe we add a fringe player, though the Pies are to proud to fall back on their "Deadline".

5 and 25 just simply isn't good enough. He is contracted
 
Brad Hardie on 6pr reporting that now Beams just wants out if Collingwood and may go to Melb for pick 3 and 12 if they gey 12 from Richmond

Sounds like more fantasy guesswork.
 
I would have been happy for 5 and 21, pick 30 is borderline useful but 48 is rubbish so I'm very happy that we held firm...talk about steak knives!!!

I'm hoping we are sounding out Greenwood he could certainly be a good depth player for us at pick 25
