Wow. just ... WOW!

Spineless.
Why? We said we wanted pick 5 and a top ready made strong bodied midfielder. We've got that with this deal. Greenwood is possibly better than any player on the lions list, considering he came equal 2nd as the Roos best player, in a team which made it to the Prelim.

While we have to pay for Beams which some seem to forget, I would have preferred to offload pick 30 & keep 25. I know it's only 5 picks but there's something psychologically pleasing in a pick in the 20's compared to a pick 30. Otherwise I agree with your response but would keep it till friday COB just to f*ck with Brisvegas who have played an undermining role with Beams no doubt in relation to Collingwood.

At Collingwood we find it hard enough to develop SUPERSTARS, and we lose one for a kid and 25 year old hard nut. I hope to be proved wrong, but I wanted a polished player in this deal.

Pendles, Sidey, Broomhead, Freeman are our polish, while Adams and Greenwood are our grunt. It's a good balance I reckon.

Would you rather keep a disgruntled player
And then lose him next yr for probably pk
9,10,11 depending where we finish??
That would be foolish. Keep the membership

WHERE is Rocketronnie when we need him??

THIS is what he consistently posts about, Collingwood getting nothing for Beams if they don't trade. Why doesn't HE have a go at such posters??

RR, where are you dude???

Brisbane's offer as reported in the Age online 1145 today:

http://www.theage.com.au/afl/afl-news/b ... z3FVi3yb6k

That is, picks 5 & 25 for Beams.

Can people pls settle & discuss ideas/options/choices. Whether it's too low or too high who TF Knows. It's merely speculation on all parts.

Now I don't want to be cliche about this but it is what it is (an offer) & we'll all know in the fullness of time, when the moment is ripe & at the appropriate juncture. What's that Bernard?

Wouldrather get nothing this year and make a stand. We coped in 2012 without him.

I'd rather not FYD, if a player who is contracted wants
To leave I call that disgruntled, why he is disgruntled
Is a different story, he is & doesn't wanna play for us
As I said we can get 5&25 now or 9,10,11 next yr
What would you prefer?

Surely there would have to be another second round pick included.

That's not standing your ground that's being stupid. Briisy would piss themselves coz they would get Beans for Nothing & we get a shitty compo pk
That makes sense.

Unbelievable isn't it? Is it April fools day everyday here on Nick's???

Getting absolutely bloody nothing for Beams is seen by some tools here as a WIN......
