So where did the picks 5, 25 come from and who for?
Really? What do we start with and what do we finish with? The rest (apart from being unworkable) is smoke and mirrors.

Under your scenario, we give up Greenwood, McKenzie and 16 for 5, 25 and 67. Won't happen.

If Collingwood won't take 5 and 25 for Beams, plus they think Greenwood is worth 30, why would they take Greenwood, McKenzie and 16 for Beams?

Geelong trade: Travis Varcoe + Pick 35
Geelong receive: Mitch Clark

Melbourne trade: Mitch Clark
Melbourne receive: Heritier Lumumba

If you rate Varcoe it seems like an ok deal, problem is I don't think anyone here does

That's why the deal hasn't been done - they're not willing to pay more than they think he is worth.

And even when you take that out, the trade has no chance of happening. It's less than what Brisbane have offered for Beams, which Collingwood rejected.

They were talking pick 56 on the AFL site.

2 year deal for Cooney.

So would people take?

Higgins, Waite, Cooney, pick 30 in.

Greenwood, pick 56 out.

Picks 16, 30, 36, 73 draft.
Pick 30 is an insult, if it were me personally i wouldnt reward Collingwood or Greenwood. After all the investment Levi is not giving us any scope to shop a better deal......sorry, id pass on 30 and send him to the PSD.

Looking how tight are list spots are id trade McMahon and pick 73 for Cooney. McMahon could easily get himself up and offer the dogs a few years, they could probably use an experienced head back there too.

For Greenwood, Collingwood can cough up a pick around 25 and upgrade our pick 56 and 30.

In: Higgins, Waite, Cooney, picks 25, 30
Out: McMahon, Greenwood, pick 56

Picks 16, 25, 30, 36

Id still throw up this deal with a mullet even bastinac (instead of mckenzie). All behind closed doors of course.

Greenwood + Bastinac + 16 for Beams.

Even that probably isn't enough. But if a genuine top 10 player of the competition is up for grabs, you gotta at least try.

Well here we are one week after the signing of free agents started. And what have we seen achieved in that week?

Next to nothing. A few bit trades that's all and a whole heap of absurd posturing by a few clubs/player managers/internet posters.

And about all that has produced is a lot of hot air, probably adding to the greenhouse gas problem and reducing the worlds life expectancy by a few thousand years.

I feel a bit cheated. I've wasted too much time vainly reading posts and listening to SEN and reading the papers to see if anything meaningful has happened.

That's another week of my life gone and sadly I can't get it back. And neither can any of you. Trouble is I'm running out of weeks. I expect better than this because I can't afford to lose them this way. I'll just be nice and say damn the AFL, damn computers, damn the person or persons who invented the interwebs, damn the TV, damn the papers and damn the wireless.

I want to go back to when the world was a nice uncomplicated place to live in. Back around the turn of the last century when just about the only way you could communicate was by carrier pigeon or smoke signals or by messages carried on horseback.

Yuck. DO NOT WANT VARCOE!

If he can't Perform in a team like Geelongs he is going to be playing VFL on 400K if he is on our list!

He is a Tambling clone. No defensive side whatsoever and he has reached his ceiling as a footballer.
