News Dayne Beams retires

[Gavin Excell]

What a disaster the trade was for Collingwood. Much like with the Gibbs deal, selling the farm for the player that you think will put you over the top often doesn't work out.

Could mount an argument that the trade back to Collingwood is one of the worst of the modern era

The 2010 Premiership reunion should be interesting

Fingers crossed no criminal trial to follow the after party this time

Yep, you can bet Lamumba won't be turning up either.

Problem is he has done a Jason Akermanis and is now pretty much not well liked by either club he played for.

I've got no issues with him. I figured he had about two years left in him when we traded him but thought it would be the shoulder that forced him to finish his career early. He was a great player (in a lacklustre team) during his time at the Lions and we got more than fair value for him when he left so he's okay in my book.

he will sue for not being invited

I think everything that has happened with Buckley in the last few weeks has only solidified my belief that everything Lumumba said about Buckley is most likely correct.

One of the worst trades in AFL history.

Well it’s 10 years this year isn’t it?

Poorest attended Zoom meeting ever.

 

[BEEG]

Good riddence.

Beams reads Bigfooty as he is a self obsessed, selfish, dishonest man.

Good luck in the future you will need it.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Ended on a sour note but he is a premiership player, All-Australian and best and fairest winner at two clubs. Not bad at all.

Hope he finds some peace and a way out of the darkness left by his father's loss.

Prince lamumba is too spaced out on mushies to leave lala land.

a cup for kicking a ball good matters more in the grand scheme of things?

sh*t i'd hate to be one of your kids

It is when you get paid a shitload of money to kick a ball around.

If you work in civil engineering you and your mates pat each other on the back when you design a great sewage system but I only care the s**t gets flushed.

Rate the value of the job as you want but we all know deep down nobody else really gives a * what you do unless it’s high profile then they give too many *s

 

[FRUMPY]

Not sure he was a top 15 player for all that long. Full respect to him though, ****ed over Collingwood good and proper

Great player and good to watch. Sadly his legacy a bit tarnished I think most will remember him for the stuff in the past 2 years.

 

[Sttew]

Collingwood really messed up after the 2018 Grand Final.

The Beams deal and now losing Treloar after signing him to a Hail Mary contract were horrible pieces of list management that are going to impact the club for a long period of time.

And do you think any heads will roll over these bungles?

Great player but doesn't leave with a great legacy.

 

[iluvparis]

I'll never forget the season I took a gamble on you in the first round of AFL fantasy draft before you were a late out in Rd 1 with a 'hip' injury. You didn't return until Rd 16

Think that is extremely harsh on Aker; he was nowhere near this much of a selfish prick, just a bit of a unit.

 

[Red Bull]

And with him, so too should go McGuire

 

[Gavin Excell]

Nobody at Collingwood prepared to own the decision on his trade

 

[Brad Goodman]

The decision to bring him back was on a par with allowing the hiring of hotel quarantine guards through WhatsApp.

I doubt Beams coming back affected an entire State. So no, not on par.

Club made a deal, they will start owning decisions when Beams does.
