Wasted nine minutes waiting to see a Wellsy Jacky Chang or any of the wonderful highlights our club has provided .

So it's now come out that Brisbane knocked back:
5, 21, 25 for Beams and 30

and then were the only team NOT to okay a 5 team mega trade including North where they would have got Beams and Christensen.

I know they're trying to play hardball but surely one of those options would of worked well for them?

Brisbane is giving 21 to Geelong for Christensen so that offer for 21 was on the table for a short period, in which Collingwood rejected the pick.

Yes but prior to that the Pies had set up the 5 team trade where Lions would have received Christensen and Beams anyway.

North said yes.
Geelong said Yes.
Pies said yes.
Melbourne said yes.

Lions backed out.

Geelong backed out, didn't want 30 and a later pick for Christensen. Brisbane were fine, they were still giving up pick 5, 21 and 25.

Absolutely everything I've seen and heard says brisbane backed out.

Cats were getting Clark as well not 30 and a late pick for Christensen.

What would we get if this deal goes through? 25 and Crisp? 21 and Crisp? 21 and 25? 21 or 25 only? A packet of chicken twisties?
Not sure if Crisp would head our way although it would be a fit I guess. But it sounds like some second rounders.

Are we talking about this deal?

Dayne Beams also came agonisingly close to sealing a trade to become a Brisbane Lions player in a complicated five-club deal that would have led to Heritier Lumumba becoming a Demon, Mitch Clark moving to the Cats, Christensen going to the Lions, and Travis Varcoe and Levi Greenwood shifting to the Magpies. Under that deal, which involved Collingwood shifting from its position of insisting on a player in any trade for Beams, the Magpies accepted a proposal in which they received picks five, 21 and 25 from Brisbane for Beams and their picks 30 and 48.

The Lions had received pick 21 from GWS for Joel Patfull and so it was this pick that would be passed on to the Magpies. Collingwood would have given pick 25 to North for Greenwood.

The Cats were to receive 30 and 48 from Brisbane for Christensen, but this was considered inadequate and Brisbane was unable to find another pick in the 20s to get a deal for him done.
