im happy brown will never become a pie....


we can still try for the CUZ, kerr, prismall, o'reilly, harris and any other midfielders on our radar.. whether or not we get one will be the issue...
either way, brown re-signing, is a good thing for our club... we now dont have to bow to the media(again) and do something we dont really need to - securing an aging CHF when we need some good tuff clearance type mids.....

bring the cuz... he wants collingwoods.. st.kilda is a smokescreen to keep the media spotlight off us while we TRY to win a flag this year...

 

[Might-Pies]

I don't think Cousins will be coming to collingwood, as much as i would like him to. Will probably head to St Kilda as it has been said. Are we a serious chance of picking up Kerr ?

 

[brspdt201013]

Thank god, I am sooooo glad Collingwood will not be waisting its money and up and coming forward talent to get him.

 

[Pie eyed]

Good news for Brisvegas.
i'm glad it is over as I never thought we were a chance in reality and I personally could not see what he would bring worth the money, not hat he is not a great player.
The best thing about this news is it proves how many of the Carlton "in the know" camp are totally full of shit......
Interesting that Brown announced only minutes after Matthews retirement?

And on the same note if M.Voss so much as hints he is interested in coaching Brissy he will certainly prove he is a moron. Should Brissy be stupid enough to agree then I wish them many years in the bottom 3.

GOOD NEWS.

This shows just what kind of a bloke he really is, had an issue with one person within the Club and put that ahead of the Club.

browned signed before leigh stated his intentions.. id say j.browns integrity would rate as high as anyones.. i think the reason it took so long was he was trying to secure his "familiy" future...

You contradicted yourself there SP.

You say he signed BEFORE Leigh quit this morning and that the reason it took so long was he was securing his families future or in other words we know what he is they are just haggling over the price. So he hadn't actually signed or agreed to terms with them until just this morning according to you.

You must have the inside running to know what was going on up there ..... as for me I'm just going on how it looks.

 

[Keele]

I tend to agree with you Tess


Mathews said his mind was made up last week, I think he knew he would get the blame if Brown went to another club where he (brown) could then openly talk of the rift.

I am sure it will all come out in the end.

 

[BEEG]

After watching friday nights performance it has shown me that we despratley need a quality Mid Kerr is the answer we should chase him hard and try to get one of Harris or Prismall

 

[pongo_3931]

This is fantastic news!

Now all we have to put up with are the 'Kerr to Collingwood' and 'Cousins to Collingwood' and 'bring back Didak' threads.

People are going to be lost, they wont know what to post any more!

We're now in the box seat.

lose this week we get pick 10, next week 12 and so on.

St. Kilda at best will get pick 12

I think what he was trying to say is the reason he let it drag on until the end of the season was to try and up the price.

He did sign before Matthews made his decision to quit.

Intersting point. It does still depend on how we finish up in the finals but the chances are we will be ahead of the Saints in each round of the draft.

I get the feeling Cousins will make it known to clubs who his preference is and he will get to the club of choice but if not this does help us. We will just need some inside knowledge on what round St Kilda are likely to go for him.

 

[jerry springer]

Awesome news,now lets get Kerr or prismall

 

[targett]

surely its time for the pies to get an established star over the line !? over the years we have been close, this year must be it.we have a wealth of young talent ie pendas cloke heater clarke rusling daisy etc etc . the likes of a cousins kerr even to a certain extent harris would be a
massive bonus to our club.a top quality midfielder along with our cuurent to guide and nurture our youth through the middle would be a fantastic move and a productive one............. Didaka a pie for life

brown had signed by saturday as he stated... leigh matthews didnt confirm his decision till last night.... im basing my facts on what was said by player and coach? so ii dont exactly see where the contradiction is....

Sorry I can't count these days

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Awesome news; I'd long been confident of Brown staying with the Lions, but now the decision's been made (before our season is completed) it has less potential to be a distraction.
