I've read nowhere that says Wells, Mayne, WHE & Rockliff have nominated Collingwood, isn't it strange that all these players linked to us haven't done so yet, whilst most of the other names rumoured have select their clubs left, right & centre????

Oh, ok. I thought he had just announced he wouldn't be at North. That is good news!

Well Hine Pretty Much Said he wants to be at Collingwood. Just have to Agree to Terms on his Contract

50 years of cryogenic freezing is great for weight loss. Helps you "be well"
 
hine and Balme went to qld to apparently to see keefe and thiomas in early sept. at the time I said it was bizarre the list manager went as well. on the same trip they had dinner with swan and schwab.
Both of them are rookie listed and can't be traded, unless time on list plus drug time off carried?
 
Rockliff is obviously a quality player, and we'd have to be mad not to at least consider him.

But...

...you'd have to think we'd start stretching the budget a little far bringing in Wells, Mayne and then Rocky this trade period. Surely if Rocky was a possibility, it would hamstring the Mayne deal along with any rumours we'd heard about landing a "big fish" in 2017.

Then you've got the question of how to find enough trade currency for him without a first round pick to spend, this year or next. We'd probably need all of the currency generated from the potential Witts, Williams, Brown and Frost trades, plus a little more, to satisfy a club which (rightfully) hates what we've done to them at the trade table.

And then you've got the strong rumours about Rocky's off field behaviour which would fly in the face of everything we hear about Bucks' culture and his desire for utmost professionalism.

I think he'd be an excellent player for us, and a midfield rotation of Grundy, Pendles, Treloar, Wells, Adams, Sidebottom, Crisp and Rockliff is insane, but this all seems just a bridge too far at the moment.

Your thoughts on cliff on the rocks
TD , do you think it's in the Clubs interest to entertain a possible trade
Or should we look at other options

new regime at brisbane, so unlike the previous one they will look at reasonable deal
tabled, and rocky has p.ss then off totally so any thing can happen. as they have said
they need picks to get talent in the door
 
Seriously though... if we got Rockcliff without losing a top 15 player i will be amazed.

And over the moon.

I'd definitely throw De Goey in, along with Frost and Blair, that's enough!

Do it!
Yeah no. we are not trading De Goey. Pick 27, Witts/his pick, 2017 2nd round pick combined is the max I'd give.

And I thought Brendan Bolton was this incredible brilliant man manager, but some one that senior wanting out?
Surely not, that's only ever happened to Buckley.

Real point, shows happens to other clubs too, for all sorts of reasons
Bolton is a great guy and should make a very good coach... fingers crossed the Blues lose patience somewhere through their rebuild and get Malthouse back.
 
A few points i would like answered if anyone has answers to them?
1.Since Wells has said he is leaving North, which we all know is a given. Why didnt he say he wants to go to Collingwood? Could there be other suitors? As you wouldnt think it would be related to his contract as you would expect that would be the first thing finalised.
2. Mayne what is he waiting for? Why not declare your intentions today? Could we have a twist here?
3.Rockliff how the hell can we get him without a first rounder? If the rumours are correct possible trade of players ie greenwood and frost straight swap?

With WHE i understand GWS have more major trades to do before dealing with us.
 
I would only bring Rockliff in for Mayne. I don't like Rockliff, however, he did start his career at a forward so at least he can play midfield and forward. I wouldn't be paying him $700kpa though.
 
Pelchen thinks everything Hawthorn does is great.

Got a txt from my brother who barracks for Richmond and he said Hawthorns odds for the
flag next year have shortened with them getting Vickery so I suppose some bookies think so too
