Well, i don't care about Collingwood but I can still feel for Collingwood fans, it is similar sh*t to us having to see Brown depart and get a lot less because he has a crap 2020.

I have empathy. :p
Stephenson isn't getting trades due to poor performance its because his team has trouble managing finances.
The President of the club literally has a show where they give money away.

Agree that he is probably on the chopping block due to his inability to make the 22 consistently.
 
Pies supporters are adamant they are getting pick 2, if not pick 11 for Stephenson šŸ˜‚
Ha. They have to realise that what is on offer is a ROUND 2 pick, not PICK 2. I think round 3 would make the collingwood list manager tell us to gagf but they could spin a second rounder as a win.

The fact that Stephenson is meeting us this late in the piece reeks of the pies being a bit desperate, but maybe that’s me.

I would happy do a trade involving second rounders, etc., but I think we are setting the terms on this one. We can afford to take it or leave it, the pies cannot.
 
Depends how badly the Pies want to get rid of his contract tbh. I'd offer our 2021 third and we pay most of, if not all of his salary next year.

I wouldn't pay too much more. Maybe one of the Brown picks if we can get two of them from Melbourne. Definitely not one of our own seconds, either this year or next.
 
This is great news. I like hearing that good young players want to meet with North. He will have something to prove, get it done.

Takes pressure off Thomas, Mahony and Taylor. They won't have the world on their shoulders, demanding X amount of goals.

It also means we will have another avenue from the backline, to the forward half. He will relish playing on a wing.

Desperation makes people do crazy things like ā€œfireā€ sales, it’s like an end of financial year 50% off everything sale, sales are always good for the consumer if you were going to buy anyway...

If you can put aside the natural contempt one can't help but feel for their ignorance, their total obliviousness to the realities of the football world is actually kinda cute sometimes. Bless their arrogant little hearts.

Totally agree in terms of walking away and meeting... I reckon if you having met with a player yet with two days to go a deal isn't going to happen.... let's hope we have met with a few others as might have a few second rders to spend

The articles stated that Stephenson had decided to stay at Collingwood so was assumedly not looking but had decided to meet with North to explore the option.

Not suggesting anything other than it didn't sound as though he was being actively shopped against his will. Collingwood clearly raised his name to trigger potential suitors.
 
Happy to take Stephenson off Pies pay some of his wage and basically for free picks wise.

Was absolutely horrible this season.

Pies are certainly playing funny buggers.

I thought he was over the heart issues?

He said he takes medication to deal with it and has to watch what he eats, Collingwood doctors in 2017 didn't think it would be an issue but here we are and Collingwood are trying to get rid of him.
 
Looks like he has some of mason wood's 'qualities'... but unsure if it's bc he's had a rough start to the season and still felt a little fragile.

I think i'd rather gamble pick 26 on him than throwing a dart in the draft. Only thing i worry about is the number of similar position players (and build) we already have... TT, CT, WW, KT...
