I think that's what we could head towards.GWS have a future second rounder for Hampton, apparently, maybe we could get that instead of 2015 pick 28?

Brisbane and North have snookered us. This is what happens when you let trades drag out.
Snookered, played, made us look like a fool... We get it. You've said the same shit about 50 times in the past 2 days.Brisbane and North have snookered us. This is what happens when you let trades drag out.
- and continue too!North and Brisbane have stuffed us over beautifully re Aish. By swapping 17 for Bastinac and a stack of second round picks:
- Brisbane now have enough points to get what their Academy kids this year, and have already got Bell and Bastinac.
- North now have a pick before us in the ND, that Aish definitely won't get past, before we pick
- Carlton will get him if he goes in the PSD.
Let's the Lions shift the goal posts on us last minute and say they only want 2016 picks and basically give them a pretext to not trade with us. Aish's options then are re-sign with the Lions or go to North or the Blues.
They've shafted us as well as they can.
Loose definition of talent!He does have history drafting young talent.
Just a comment on the "megadeal" involving Howe and Kennedy
Melbourne received Kennedy and picks No.29 and 50 and gave up Howe and Toumpas;
Port Adelaide received Toumpas and pick No.32 and gave up picks No.29, 50 and 68;
So looking at it from Melbourne's point of view, if Howe was worth around pick 29, then Toumpas was the pick 50
or looking at it from Port's point of view, if pick 50 could upgrade a pick 32 to a pick 29, then Toumpas would end up being the pick 68.
Both trades indicate that Toumpas was worth something less than a pick 50. This is a guy who was pick 4 in the 2012 draft. We've seen guys like Aish who was a pick 7 get far more fanfare than Toumpas. Brisbane wanting a first rounder for him. Collingwood wanting a first rounder for Freeman and eventually getting a mid 20s pick. There are other examples....and in the corner is Toumpas who was rated a far higher draft pick and was playing with a hopeless club and he gets moved along for the whiff of an oily rag....
Now good luck for Port to be to manage the trade, but I cant see much sense in some of the trading. You might argue that the kid has proved himself to be a dud.... well from his Melbourne highlights he has looked pretty good. He can certainly get and dispose of the ball far better than Ben Kennedy could... and he was playing with a dud team.
And the trade hardly gets mentioned. I keep wondering what sort of profile the trade would have had if Collingwood had registered an interest in getting Toumpas. You got to be jealous of a team like Port and its ability to operate so far under the radar. I suppose no one outside of Port Adelaide is interested in the team and the few inbreds that live in that ghetto probably cant read the newspaper...

Gubby hasn't had many friends at Collingwood since his Brisbane days.No doubt these deals are complex when significant egos are involved. Hine knows the games and has negotiated some terrific outcomes in recent years. I don't think Gubby Allen will have many friends left at Collingwood though.
Is he worthy that?Apparently Lions want two second rounders, surely we just hand that over? Pretty simple deal....
@AFL_Nick: Still expect Pies will get Aish, but believed to be reluctant to pass on two 2016 second-rounders for the Lion at this stage #TradePeriod
Defiently, will be a gunIs he worthy that?

Its like little children stomping their feet because they cant get what they wantThis is untrue. Nothing to suggest anything other than they will both end up at the pies.
Jesus Christ people are losing their minds.

Could we get that 2016 geelong first rounder that the blues just traded to the giants?Ok so Giants future 2016 2nd rounder might be part of the Treloar deal.
We can then give lions 2 x 2016 2nd round picks
