List Mgmt. Collingwood Trade Talk 2016 Part 3

[The Pied Piper]

This talk that getting Rockliff in would mean we are too overpowered or stacked in the midfield seems a bit silly.

Have you seen our injury list each of the last 5 years?

The more quality players we can get, in any position, the better.

We can't really get any quality KPP's this trade period due to not having a first round pick, and the free agent pool is small (literally) so we get what we can this year, and then target KPP's in next years' trade and FA period.

I love our approach at the moment, it started at last year's trade/FA period with Howe, Treloar, Aish, Smith and Wills coming in.

If we do something similar this year, with Wells, WHE, Mayne and another (Rockliff or STewart) then we are back on track, all be it a year off the target of 2017 to challenge for a flag. 2018 is a realistic chance of being a top 4 team if we make the right moves.

"Wake him up !" Rockcliff in a black n whitegimp suit would make fantastic theatre. Play Pendles as a perm fwd where the play will mostly be .. Premiership flog has a nice ring to it ...

I said I think he doesnt like us, walking out of a toilet yelling **** Collingwood at the top of your voice doesnt scream I like the Collingwood football.

Paul Collingwood wasn't loitering per chance?

 

[Mazza12346]

Rocky to collingwood probably will happen
Doubt crows will be able to pick up two a graders in Gibbs and rocky
Would add another layer to a gun midfield for us
Just need a bit of consistency in the forward line and sky is the limit next year

 

[Mazza12346]

Frost oxley and witts for rocky
Get it done now

No. We don't need him. we've got a better version in Crocker. You're only wanting him for the sake of bringing in a player.

Yet you took Maggie5 to task for not wanting a guy that plays the exact same role as Lennon in Mayne?! What a class act you are...

 

[Mazza12346]

Wells off a half back is exactly what we need
If he was 2 years younger would be perfect but can only take what's on offer in the market

 

[WakeUpPies]

I said I think he doesnt like us, walking out of a toilet yelling **** Collingwood at the top of your voice doesnt scream I like the Collingwood football.

Maybe he banged his little toe on the way out and what he actually said was "F**K! ... Collingwood!".

 

[eddiebankbalance]

But the most important question is, did he wash his hands?

If not, then do not touch.

I never touch taps in a public dunny.

 

[SpongePie]

Heh, Brions supporters trying to stir the pot with talks of Sidebottom touring their facilities.

Sidebottomo going nowhere-o.
He's an untouchable.

Link?

 

[good4footy]

hine and balmey met swan and schwab a month ago in qld.

KB has been all over 'Rockliff to Pies' and was the first to say so. Good mates with Balme, who also happens to be on his show each Friday.

 

[Daicos Daze]

We are on the hunt for

KB has been all over 'Rockliff to Pies' and was the first to say so. Good mates with Balme, who also happens to be on his show each Friday.

That Could be Cliff Hanger

 

[THATSGOLD]

B: Scharenberg - Brown - Howe
HB: Maynard - Reid - Adams
C: Wells - Rockliff - Sidebottom
HF: Mayne - White - Hoskin-Elliott
F: Elliott - Moore - Fasolo
R: Grundy - Pendlebury - Treloar
INT: Aish - DeGoey - Varcoe - Crisp

That's a cracking side.

Langdon, Broomhead, Greenwood, Ramsay, Blair, Crocker, Smith, Keefe, Thomas, Marsh, Sinclair, Wills and Phillips as depth.

Ive watched Rockliff closely for fantasy footy purposes and the guy is basically Swan without the burst of speed.

Just knows where to run to and racks up ball. Who do you tag in a midfield of Pendles, Treloar, Rockliff, Wells, Sidebottom and Adams rotating through?

We'll push for a flag with that side I'm not even joking about that. It's strong.

 

[BLS World Wide]

Your club won't want Rocky anyway. He's a spud remember?

Played more games than beams has in the last 2 seasons

Well that seals it, there is no chance Rockcliff ends up at Collingwood!

 

[Good_Old]

Link?

They're only talking .

 

[HFF]

How do we get the Rockliff deal done without compromising ourselves in next years exchange period/draft?

 

[Good_Old]

I never touch taps in a public dunny.

Yeah, I mean the door handles are miles cleaner!

 

[Daicos Daze]

We'll push for a flag with that side I'm not even joking about that. It's strong.

And too think if we stay injury free
And retain a healthy Squad
We will be up there in Sept
Hope Elliot is prime
But our Match against Hawks in last round is convincing , that we will make the Premiership a Cake walk

 

[Old Spice]

I never touch taps in a public dunny.

So just keep the poo particles on your hands?

 

[gtrain23]

Wells off a half back is exactly what we need

Also agree but his body is ****ed

 

[barrackers]

We want Rockliff - he is tough and he kicks goals. Year 1 impact could be as good as Treloar. Possible trade:

Collingwood loses: Witts*, Frost, Oxley, 2016 second round, 2017 second round

Collingwood gains: Rockliff, 2016 Bris third round^, 2017 Bris third round

Brisbane loses: Rockliff, 2016 third round, 2017 third round

Brisbane gains: Frost, Oxley, GC 2016 second round, CFC 2016 and 2017 second rounds

*Gold Coast likely to get Witts although he could be traded to Brisbane in lieu of 1 second round pick
^Useful for Daicos/Brown points

You must really rate Rockcliff because that deal is huge for Brisbane.

Assuming Witts = 29, Frost = 49, Oxley = 45 (mid 3rd round pick), 2017 Bris 3rd = 45, 2017 Coll 2nd = 27 means the cost for Rockliff is a massive 2059 points. That many points is the equivalent of pick 4 +72.

To put that into perspective Treloar cost 2734 points (or pick 2 + 55)

Without the 2nd/3rd round pick swaps it's about pick 7, which while more fair is still more than I'd pay for someone who isn't a list need and is on the outer at their club.

 

[Scodog10]

How do we get the Rockliff deal done without compromising ourselves in next years exchange period/draft?

Really it's impossible to speculate on too much yet, however it's worth remembering that we'll likely have up to 3 second round picks to play with and Frost post the Witts deal. The hurdle is more Brisbane being open to the trade which we won't know for at least a further 48 hrs.

FWIW 2017 picks may hold the key. If we can trade two of our second rounders into a 1st roumd pick this year (say Bulldogs or Sydney) it opens up our ability to trade that 2027 1st round pick.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Disappointed that Pickett chose the blues. Few posters were really keen on him.

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

How do we get the Rockliff deal done without compromising ourselves in next years exchange period/draft?

Swap De Goey for him.

Lets face it. De Goey isn't going to get any midfield time ahead of Pendlebury, Treloar, Sidebottom, Adams, Wells, Greenwood and Crisp. Even Wills got more time in midfield than De Goey.

I don't see the point in trying to convert a pure mid in De Goey in playing as a small forward.
