Past #24: Levi Greenwood - officially traded to Collingwood FC for pick 25 (2014) - retires rd16 2021 due to concussion symptoms - go well Pig

[Bugglz]

I don't have the patience nor the stomach to venture over to the Pies board but does anyone know what their fans expect they should trade to get him?

General consensus is a pick in the mid to late 20's, depends what we have at the time.

 

[Kanga1996]

Mixed bag.

Some going with the you got no power pick 35

others more realistic on a high 2nd and pick upgrade.

We really don't have leverage with Collingwood we have to take what we are given unfortunately

That's some shit general consensus. No offence.

With the Bullies and Tigers in the wings yes we do.

Easy to go to Levi with the Pies only view you at pick 35, im sure you understand we cant accept that, time to consider the other options.

 

[Only Forwards]

Like Jesse Smith?

But does Luke even own an XBox?

Any suggestions who we could get with pick 15? It would have to net us someone miles better than that millionaire Levi Greenwood.

I know players that wear blue n white are worth less than those in black n white, im really hoping the same isnt true for draft picks.

 

[Shinboner '07]

I saw a 3way trade with lions thrown up where we receive picks 25 and 28. Thought that was pretty fair

Haha none taken, I have no idea what he's worth (hence why i'm here ). I do tend to rate known qualities higher then unknown, so if Greenwood was likely to be a walk up start in our best 22 for the next 5 years I would have no problem giving up a pick in the high 20's for him. What do you think he's worth?

 

[naturally north]

We've got a plethora of inside mids. Hence Higgins has more value to us to meet a need. As a RFA extra salary is the price we pay for not having to trade.

Losing Beams and Ball, Greenwood has a lot more value to the Pies than he does to us.

Wot?

Don't come in here on your hired horse and go speaking sense.

Shaun "Missy" Higgins is always injured even though he's played 97 of the last 132 games available.

Missy had 408 disposals in his 20 twenty games this past season. A mere 5 disposals per game less than the Leviathan who played as a full time mid.

I'm not fussed, concerned or give a shit that he's gone, am confident we'll get decent compensation and move on real quick.

Also think some else will come second in our B&F next season, just a feeling I have.

You're paying him 400k a year for the next four years, and he'll slot seamlessly into your midfield rotation and give you immediate production of roughly 20-25 touches a game and intense physical pressure around the football. He's harder than a cat's head and refuses to take a backwards step.

He's worth a pick between 10 and 20.

 

[Roobound]

a lot of animosity here towards a player for making a sensible professional decision. have people forgotten that we are the club that poached a series of players under the 10 year rule many a moon ago?

What has been lost in that was we were the only team to vote against the 10 year rule.

Im still fingers crossed for Goddard

Can you judge a player on one season ? If the answer is yes Mid to high 20's IMO
Before this year un-tradable .. Again IMO

 

[Lemma]

Liam Pickering just said on SEN that Levi also felt that if North had a full strength midfield available that his position would be in jeopardy. North had offered 3 years

I read doesn't want to work hard for his spot.

Most of their posters are all right, but some (a sizable percentage) of collingwood's posters believe he's a slow plodder with no skills.

I mean current players, i doubt B.Goddard is going anywhere. What im trying to get at is, if Levi is only worth pick 25-35 imagine the superstar we'd land with pick 15 - although we'd probably have to find the 600k/y to pay them.

Interested in this, as i understand the nomination only means that his preferred club would be Collingwood, it doesn't cause any limitations to our options?

From the Pies board, a few seem to think they have us over a barrel now and it's "what we decide, or piss off", hence the ridiculous low-balling going on.

From all accounts Levi isn't interested in ****ing over the club, just interested in the added money and security of the Collingwood offer (as he has a right to be interested in) and the defined position there in the midfield. If they come in swinging with a late 2nd round pick, I would hope that he doesn't force the issue, and leaves the possibility of a change of mind open, such as the Dogs 2 2nd round picks >> Levi and our 3rd round pick

I very much doubt you would be getting a pick that high, From what i've seen of Greenwood I imagine he would have roughly the same trade value as Lumumba. So if Collingwood is prepared to let Lumumba go for for a pick in the high 20's (which seems likely) I wouldn't imagine they would be prepared to give up much more then that for Greenwood. Possibly a pick in the mid 20's and a fringe player?

Throw in a pick with Greenwood and you might also be a chance of getting one of our tall defenders in Brown or Keeffe.

Really, Greenwood and Lumumba the same? We actually want to keep Greenwood while we couldnt find anyone willing to piss on Lumumba if he were on fire let alone have him on the list. They are not even close.....

Opps my bad......Obumba was in black n white. Silly me.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Greenwood is a better player than Harry L and should be worth more trade wise, but it never works out that way. Greenwood should be worth more than Harry trade wise.

Geoff Walsh SEN now

To be fair Nth had some interest in Harry and he was 5th and 4th in our last two BnFs also been AA and been much more consistent then Greenwood

You guys will get something like pick 22 and a swap of 3rd rounders

I would be happy to give our 2nd and 3rd picks

 

[Flawed Genius]

Walsh on SEN now.

 

[utility]

Geoff Walsh SEN now

What did he say? Looking to throw in Anthony and a third rounder?

Your are both greatly underselling Lumumba, he has his weaknesses and he's not the most likeable guy but he's a quality player, and has been producing that quality for a lot longer then Greenwood has, 3rd in our best and fairest too I believe. Greenwood has had a great year but plenty of players have great years and are unable to follow it up, that has to be taken into account as well.
It will be interesting to see what Lumumba and Greenwood end up getting traded for but I would imagine it would be for pretty similar picks.
