A STANDOFF with GWS is not worrying Collingwood, which expects to add Taylor Adams to its trade bounty within days.
The Pies want to recruit Adams, a former No.13 draft pick, in a straight swap for defender Heath Shaw, but the Giants are pushing for a sweetener in the form of draft picks.

But options for a deal became extremely limited today when
Collingwood sent its No.11, No.31 and No.49 selections to West Coast as part of the deal that landed Sydney's Jesse White.
The Pies now have selections six and 10 - which they won't part with - and don't have another pick until 67.
The Giants have picks 1, 2, 21 and 22 and are not expected to use any later picks.

But Magpies recruiting manager Derek Hine said today he was confident the two clubs could strike a deal before Friday's 2pm deadline even as both talk up the value of the player they are giving away.
"One player is a proven player, a premiership payer, at the peak of his powers. The other boy is a first-round draft choice, a 20-year-old who potentially has plenty of scope (to improve).
"Both parties have really strong opinions on their relevant player and they're both consistent and both on the right track ... I'm really confident we'll be able to get something sorted out in the not-too-distant future," he said on Trade Week radio.

He said the delay in signing off on a deal was mainly due to both clubs focussing on other trades, in particular the Giants' deal with Melbourne over pick 2.
"Myself and Steve (Silvagni, GWS list manager), we're in constant dialogue, the thing is during this period aside from the fact it seems to be going on forever and a day, GWS have a lot of things going on and we do as well.
"Both players have committed to the relevant clubs. Now it's just a matter of both parties coming together and (deciding) what's the best way to facilitate the trade.
"I'm sure a deal will get sorted out.
"They're really good to deal with and I'd like to think we're pretty consistent as well. We'll be fine."
