Mega Thread Delist/Trade/Draft Supermegaultrathread - Now Starts A Long Offseason

Trengrove from the Demons could also be on his way to the Tigers.

Fox Footy seems to think so...

Oh that reminds me, any word at all about a possible trade of Jack Watts? Surely if there's any talented kid who needs a change of scenery, it's him.

Seems like 2 games is enough for Paul Roos to stamp your papers. Even if you're a former captain and #2 pick.

 

[MIKE85]

Mitch Brown?

Completely different scenario, well kind of. Brown was a fringe player at the time, couldn't get regular games, saints tried to poach him, and obviously offer him a permanent role in their side. Griffen & Beams have both asked to be traded (brown may have actually asked us to trade him to the saints, I don't fully remember) but those 2 are senior players and pretty critical players to their teams.

Wow, they really screwed up that draft.

He'll end up being a jet at Richmond I reckon, classy player.

To where? Us? I don't reckon you could un-Melbourne him the way we un-melbourned bennell

 

[MIKE85]

Let's leave Watts at Melbourne, as a constant reminder of their massive fail in selecting him over Nic!

 

[Cox for PM]

Beams possibly to GWS - is in USA with Heath Shaw both parties keen to deal.

 

[Lyyynnnchy]

Trengrove from the Demons could also be on his way to the Tigers.

I'd do 11 for 23 and Trengove

 

[CaptainObviousWA]

Well I'd be pretty happy to take Watts, yeah. Wouldn't be worth a whole lot at the moment, and if we could un-Melbourne him he might be a good second or third tall in attack, freeing up Jack to run through the midfield a bit.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Melbourne tank against Richmond to get Pick 1 and 2.

Pick 1 is now a spud for GWS.
Pick 2 looks like joining Richmond.
Richmond took Dustin Martin at Pick 3.

See my avatar for appropriate reaction.

Collingwood say they want a top pick and a good player. The deal on the table would give them pick 5 and Greenwood, why wouldn't they grab that?

You would think that getting pick 25 to trade for a good player from another club would be better than getting a good player from just Brisbane.

In the end Collingwood just don't want to trade Beams unless they get overs. Although there is a some risk that Beams will just walk (for his old mans sake) or go through the motions until next year thus reducing what he is worth as a trade

Does that make Melbourne Batman though?

This is actually hilarious how serious Collingwood take themselves:

http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/news/2014-10-10/pies-lions-cease-negotiations

Negotiations between the Collingwood Football Club and the Brisbane Lions over Dayne Beams ceased at 5pm on Friday evening.

Out of respect to Dayne, Collingwood worked as hard as it could to construct an equitable deal with the Lions who pursued the contracted 24 year-old All-Australian midfielder but, ultimately, didn’t value him as Collingwood does.

As everyone is aware, Dayne requested a trade to Brisbane for personal reasons, something Collingwood agreed to consider as long as the outcome returned appropriate compensation.

Unfortunately, this was not forthcoming.Collingwood’s position from the outset was that a good player and an early draft pick was a fair return, although the club did consider the possibility of a combination of draft picks. Even this failed to produce a solution.

Now that negotiations with Brisbane have ceased, Collingwood is free to pursue other opportunities involving players and picks. The club remains open to offers from other clubs for Dayne, if that is his wish.

If not, at the conclusion of the trade period the club will look to sit down with Dayne to prepare for the 2015 season.

I'd do 11 for 23 and Trengove

Really????

Coming off a serious foot injury, is slow and has not shown enough for mine. I probably wouldn't even want him for 23

edit- 23 AND trengove makes me a little less wtf

 

[MIKE85]

Melbourne looking to trade trengove and 23 for Richmonds 12, would we jump in and give 11??

 

[bodazoka]

Collingwoods idea of "a good player" seems to be the the equivalent or better of Beams AND pick #5.. Basically seems they had no intention of trading Beams.

 

[jakethebear]

SEN reporting GWS are going to make a play for Beams...could this help push out Coniglio?

I really really want Coniglio if this happens, but at the same time, I hope Beams doesn't go to GWS. Can you imagine- all the premierships for the next 5 years will be pretty much sown up for them.

Not saying Beams is that good, but with the quality they've just got in plus all the early draft picks. Equalisation is never going to really work when drafts have been compromised the way they have.

I remember when he looked like a Jet! wtf is wrong with Melbourne seriously..

 

[Carbine Chaos]

They won't win a single one in that time period.

 

[eagle eyed]

Melbourne looking to trade trengove and 23 for Richmonds 12, would we jump in and give 11??

Don't want Trengove. Prefer to use 11 on a kid and keep building.

 

[Cox for PM]

This is actually hilarious how serious Collingwood take themselves:

I think if one of our players wanted out like this, despite the circumstances, I would want our club to stand up and say "unless you pay us what we believe he is worth then no deal.

I'm no Collingwood supporter but it would seem that if SEN reports are right, they may just get their way with GWS doing the trade.

 

[MIKE85]

Don't want Trengove. Prefer to use 11 on a kid and keep building.

A kid like.......Coniglio!!!

 

[Jay May]

Melbourne looking to trade trengove and 23 for Richmonds 12, would we jump in and give 11??

Would you consider 12 and a swap of 2nd rounders for Gaff? Or 12 and 23?

 

[CaptainObviousWA]

Gotta love Collingwoods statement.

"Out of respect for Dayne, we set a totally arbitrary deadline to try to force Brisbane into giving us overs for him. Now that has failed, we'll shop Dayne around, not giving a toss that he wants to be close to his family. Did we say we totally respect him?"
