List Mgmt. COLLINGWOOD Trade and F/A Discussion 2023

There’s a ripping Sri Lankan restaurant there near the uni

Well, if we're in a PF in Sydney next year we'll have to give it a try.

 

[stormskye]

Carlton have two low 20’s picks now. Wonder if we could do some pick swaps. They need picks next year.

 

[sr36]

There's a fixation on here with what round the picks are in. You could trade a first round pick 19 and it would be a travesty but using a second round pick 19 is shrewd business.

It's more than that - some seem to value picks very differently when they're used to pick up a player in a trade than if they are used to pick up a player by draft. Eg. The following year after Murray, we did exactly the same trade: future 2nd for future 3rd to get the pick to draft Bianco. Everyone applauded it as clever and cunning.

 

[BEEG]

Dees get a better deal for Grundy then we did?

 

[Harry O]

Is it just me or did Melbourne get a better deal for Grundy than we did for Adams? One guy couldn't get a game the other clearly in the best 22 and a member of the leadership group

Just you

I have some pretty disturbing news. We are going to end up with Billings as well

 

[sr36]

Because they didn’t bother offering him a contract at all until they got word of our interest, or so the story goes. So getting a future second for what would have been a DFA is quite the reaming, if true.

It's a myth. They'd offered him a contract, but were rolling him over as a Cat B, because it has an obvious advantage. However, they didn't know there was outside interest and there was a massive disadvantage that we could have added him as a DFA without trade due to some strange Cat B rules. So when they got wind of our interest they offered him a list spot, which meant that we ouldn't pick him up as a DFA.

 

[Bramax]

I think 19 is about right. He's had 2 very good years and is young and heading into his prime. In a successful team there's no reason he can't move into AA quality performance. The perfect replacement for Billy.

Freo have been very flaky the last few seasons so I can imagine it’s been tough for a small forward in that team at times. I read somewhere that he’s kicked more goals than any of his teammates the last 4 yrs. So for me - he’s a great pick up.

Please explain this!

If that were true, Ginnivan really should walk.

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

If that were true, Ginnivan really should walk.

But he's gonna be a defensive mid.

 

[unplugged]

Just thinking out loud a little bit here about how Dodoro is seemingly chasing Duursma from Port as an afterthought to them chasing BZT. And now Geelong chasing Lord as a result of them chasing Esava.

I feel like all of our targets over the years - previously with Hine and now Wright - have always been just that, a legitimate target. Crisp probably the last one I can remember that has come out of nowhere.

 

[Bramax]

Had him, wasn't a huge fan. Glad he got a bit better for you guys.

If you knew he’d become the player he is, Swans would either have asked for more or not let him go.

Can't walk if you're in the midfield.

 

[nahnah]

Billings will be wing depth for us, Gin is fine

To be fair, Schultz came a bit out of nowhere.

[ElliottsMaggies]

Pick 33 for Adams is ******* disgraceful when you think how far that'll get pushed back.

If we give pick 33 to another club, it won't matter.

 

[soreplums]

I nearly fell off my chair the deal for Zac Fisher to Norf !!!!!!

Me too!! It’s true what they were saying on trade radio…. He transformed into Craig Bradley overnight

 

[Kes1984]

We definitely need Murphy insurance. Even if he is cleared by the panel and plays on, he’s on such a time clock now.

Add to that Howe will retire at some point in the near future.

Let's not forget ours was as much a salary dump as it was anything else.

Imagine if Beatson is twisting the truth a little.. could that be a possibility? And it was actually the Swans who made the approach. Wouldn't be a good start.

So is Melbourne's

Yeah but it's not like he was on Sydney's list and we've just plucked him out without a glowing need for him. That's what I'm trying to say.

 

[unplugged]

Nah, Melbourne really really value him, remember? They can't stand the sight of him dwindling away in the 2s!
