Pick 25 a fair trade for Levi Greenwood. Sad to see him leave Arden Street, but hope he can continue his 2014 form at Collingwood

**** off. I hope he wallows at VFL level for the next 4 years.

 

[jess_1804]

Ok Levi. You were one of my favourite players. But you're dead to me now.
I curse your left foot and I hope you shank every kick you have playing in a Collingwood jumper.

No need to curse him, he shanks it anyway.

 

[King Corey]

Levi wanted to go to the pies - where a good club to deal with - it comes back around. We could have demanded late teens early 20's but the pies couldnt get it. 25 is still very good.

Not wrong. I wish I could trade with North.

Farewell, 6th best midfielder

 

[Black Diamond]

Why do you guys look at a trade between two different clubs as a reference point for us and Collingwood? That isn't how it works.

Greenwood complained that he would get pushed out of the midfield. So goes to Collingwood.

Should have just been honest.

Pick 25 was unders, but he wanted to go, had no contract with us, and Collingwood didn't have an earlier 2nd round pick than 25. It was the pragmatic result.

Unlike others, I wish Levi well at Collingwood and hope he does continue his good form. Except against us.

Yep. The moment he nominated a club, we were left with absolutely zero leverage in this deal.

Pretty dirty on that.

Is it just me or does anyone else think Collingwood have actually done very well from this trade period ?

 

[chubbspeterson]

Yep.
That attitude shits me.
25 is NOT what he is worth NOW.

To me he's in the 18-25 range, but Pies don't have anything else to offer apart from pick 25.
Levi is a good honest ballwinner but he'll never be A grade, his kicking efficiency is not elite, he'd have 4 or 5 clangers a game.
The only thing we could've gotten was a later pick exchange, which is next to useless if we're going to trade pick 36.
I think we can find a much more talented player at that pick.

Syd Barker says otherwise.

Nevertheless it is done and so the point is now moot.

Noticed his twitter feed on the AFL site trade thread. Hanging with Azza Edwards. The same Azza without an AFL club to keep him reined in.

Time to live it up a little then, lots of cash just hit the account and you're on holiday. Enjoy.

I think by losing Beams they are now 3 - 4 years away from being a top team again and at that stage they would want to have some young stars coming through. Levi will be a good pickup but he wont be playing top level finals until the rest of the side get a lot better

There must be some award that we don't know about. "The Most Sporting Team of Trade Period". Must be lucrative given we ****in strive for it every October.

They pushed and got a very good deal for Beams by playing hardball. Something we're incapable of.

However Varcoe for Lumumba is a nil-all. They should've taken a pick.

He actually lives with Edwards. Spends a shit load of time with he and Dusty Martin. What's the odds he rolls up to Collingwood pre season with a sleeve?

North twitter feed shows our supporters are just as charitable as the football department.

Get some grunt about you ffs. Surprised some of them didn't tip in for a bottle of grange to see Levi off.

Easy to do when the player is still under contract. When £€vi nominated one club we were screwed.

Cooney? Any update?

Yep looking at it now, his form this year appears to be driven off motivation to get maximum $$$$$$. Will be interesting to see how he goes with more attention in a worse side.

 

[Tropical_Oceans]

Pick 25 is a good deal for Greenwood. Obviously, after the year he has had, we could have pushed for more! But, if you look at what he has done since he got to the club = more than adequate!
