List Mgmt. We Got Him! Beams Trade Discussion (Not the Hype Thread)

[Matt_BL]

Doesn't make sense, if Aish wants to leave why would he go to Collingwood? Would have the red carpet out over at Adelaide if he wanted to head back there.

 

[scoman]

Would much rather use 21 to help secure Beams than Christensen. Would prefer 5 and 21 but 5,21 and 25 with 30 coming back would still leave me a happy man.

If that means we can't get Christensen so be it. Beams is the one we want!

 

[carnthemlions]

About the same place it has been for a while, I reckon. 5 + 25 and some token late pick swaps. Maaaybe 21 instead of 25, depending on what the Cats are prepared to take for Christensen.

If 5 + 25 wouldn't do it, I assume we'd try 5 + 21 for 30. Maybe 5 + 21 for a later pick. 5 + 21 + 25 for 30 would be the limit I'd assume.

 

[Ironmonger]

I suggested that trade on our board earlier today. I believe my club would do it.

Cheers.

I reckon that is right at the absolute maximum we would entertain. It sounds like it might be the absolute minimum Collingwood would entertain.

Which is probably where you're supposed to end up after negotiations.

Been reading the majority of this thread, and the longer it has gone on, the general consensus seems to be that we are happy to walk from the beams trade, we don't want to cave at the 11th hour and give collingwood a player, and go to the draft with our picks... For the record I am on board with these notions....
It makes me wonder, would the club have someone in public relations read through these threads to see what the publics thinking, because hypothetically if they did, there is no way we will cave, at least not in a big way (huge overs) because as I previously stated, it seems to be overwhelmingly in favour of us walking away with our heads held high.

The PR staff are not always the most popular members of an organisation, but I don't think the club hates its PR staff that much.

 

[royboys4eva]

I still think Beams gets to the Lions. Collingwood's list management team are just dragging it as long as possible hoping the Lions will blink first and cave in. In the end i think it's Lions pick 5 and 21 (Patfull trade) and maybe 25 with 30 coming back our way. Or it might just be 5 and 21. Collingwood knows Beams wants out. They also know Greenwood wants in. They can't get Greenwood with pick 30. So the deal gets done late Friday.

 

[James North]

In unrelated news, I think Steele Tallon is an extraordinary individual.

Yeah I agree. If you have to choose between Christensen and Beams it's a no brainer. Beams has 150 games left of elite football.

 

[Big Lion]

Hate to see us cave in on this, be nice, really nice if we stick to pick 5 and 25.

 

[Ironmonger]

Collingwood Magpies News, Discussion, Scores & Offseason Talk
If SEN 1116 are correct, Dayne Beams will be a Lion by the end of tomorrow. In return Collingwood will receive Brisbane's 5th pick and youngster James Aish.

I know it's from facebook and it's a big IF...but man if that happened I be pissed off.

I'd be sad to lose Aish, but our fifth pick is #81 so it seems about right.

 

[Schache It Off]

I'd be sad to lose Aish, but our fifth pick is #81 so it seems about right.

Whoops. LOL.

I think to some degree it's the other way around. I think hearing Swann and Schwab in the media has given all of us the confidence to stick up for ourselves and walk away, just from hearing that they're not going to be pushed around. In the past we'd maybe have been resigned to losing out.

 

[Dylz48]

I think the 30 is overs.

5 + 21 + 25 for Beams is fair.

If you guys were agreeable to 5 + 21 + 25 I don't think we would be able to use 30 anyway so I don't think including it would be a problem, assuming we only use one of the inside 20 picks for greenwood

 

[Ironmonger]

This response to Aish being included?



Yeah, it's good.

 

[Panthera]

Personally I would take that. It allows us to bring in Greenwood whilst retaining two good picks. Fair compensation IMO. I was disappointed to hear that Brisbane ruled it out.

No quotes.....not one. Hypothetical questions asked and answered for mine

 

[FRANK STALLONE]

I know it seems ridiculous that a professional organisation would read big footy forums, but to go over this thread it's fairly easy to get an idea of what the fans are thinking.

 

[mattyroar]

I say trade our 3 picks and maybe get beams and a later pick. Beams is too good to pass out for me

 

[TheZork]

I'd be sad to lose Aish, but our fifth pick is #81 so it seems about right.

I trust this bloke in the comments
"Just talked to a lions recruiter Daniel Cestallano said beams will be a lion but not for aish, sen has no clue"

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Is James Aish Spanish for pick 25 ?

 

[rusty08]

If 5 + 25 wouldn't do it, I assume we'd try 5 + 21 for 30. Maybe 5 + 21 for a later pick. 5 + 21 + 25 for 30 would be the limit I'd assume.

Lol we only have tomorrow. It's taken a week to get to 5 + 25 from 5

 

[s364376]

oh jesus.

Collingwood want Dangerfield, who apparently was at Westpac centre recently.
Adelaide want Aish. Aish possibly wants to head home to Adelaide.

Pick 5 and Aish to Adelaide for Dangerfield?

 

[Hollow Knight]

I like how Brisbane and Collinwood are at the point of quibbling over which mere combination of second round picks could get it done when packaged with pick 5 yet some Pies fans are thinking somehow that a fallback position is going to involve James Aish.

It's totally cute.

 

[BlackCaviar]

If Aish becomes part of this deal , we must take pick 5 of the table and replace it with pick 25 !!
