Mega Thread Dayne Beams trade (Its over, thread closed)

[jmac70]

No. We will only do well if and when pick 5 becomes as good as Beams.
Greenwood and Varcoe are not in the best 100 players in the comp.
Crisp not in the best 300.

Unless we trade picks 5 and 21 for an established player who is in the top 5% of the comp.

 

[BEEG]

It's really just the same deal except we are giving 30 and 48 away seperately for 21.

More chances of getting a good player at 21 then 30

We could throw in Crisp for steakknives!

 

[THATSGOLD]

So Beams is not even worth pick 1 by your lack of logic. In fact its not worth 1, 2 3, 4 and 5 combined.

Beams is worth pick 5 and Aish or Mayes. A crack at getting a gun and a potential ready made gun out and an out instant gun. Nothing more nothing less.

That's why Geelong won't swap their pick 21 unless the club is being run by a bigfooty member?

 

[DIDAIC0S]

Cats current picks 14,35,55
They'd definitely prefer 14,21,35,55,73
than 14,30,35,48,55 wouldn't they?
How many players would they be looking to draft?
If it's the minimum 3 then there is no incentive whatsoever.
If it's 4 or 5 picks maybe some small improvement. But it's pretty much a crap shoot in the draft by 40+ anyway isn't it?

 

[Anzacday]

If this is it I can deal with it,

IN: Pick 5, 21, Levi Greenwood, Travis Varcoe, Jack Crisp
OUT: Dayne Beams, Heritier Lumumba, pick 25 (Greenwood), 30 + 48
Basically we get Pick 5 + 21 and Greenwood for Beams, then Varcoe and Crisp for Lumumba.

Correct.
So we've gone from 9, 30, 48, 67, 85 & 103 and 2 players we don't want.
To 5, 9,21, 67, 85 & 103 and Greenwood, Varcoe & Crisp - confirms Hine doesn't rate the draft above 25.
We will use a late pick to upgrade Frost and don't discount us signing a delisted free agent which uses another late pick.

Its a buyers market. When are you going to get that into your think skull.

5 and 25 is unders. Crisp makes it less unders. Its about right. We were never going to get what Beams is worth

I haven't seen a top 5% in the comp a player nominate to come to us for a very very long time.

Yeah but not by as much as you'd think, apparently 15 to 35 could go in almost any order in this particular draft.

We don't have to trade. It's that simple. We said to Brisbane the deal is off.
Other clubs will take the piss out of us in the coming years of the trade period if we do that again.
No deal Brisbane was the statement letter I got from the club on Friday. If I'm getting a another one this week saying we've back tracked I wouldn't blame anyone for not turning up to watch us for a while.

 

[MagpieJoel]

Wow, just wow. Some people are taking this like they have been personally insulted.

We have been put in a shit position by a shit club and a shit bloke. It will not be forgotten. The hysterics is ridiculous, the club is doing the best it can do given the situation.

 

[Anzacday]

Wow how good is the ignore button

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Fair?

Under the circumstances , not too bad now that 21 is back. If anyone cops it in the rear I'd say it's Geelong.

 

[Mame]

Wow how good is the ignore button

It's good but needs improvement. All replies to ignored posters should be ignored too.

 

[PieBeast]

Saying we want a pick and a best 22 player for Beams meant we weren't going to accept picks and fringe players, saying the negotiations with Brisbane have ceased meant they had to give us exactly what we are after or we don't deal with them. So it's laughable to suggest we didn't back down....

But like I said last night, the proposed deal itself is actually ok.

 

[Damon_3388]

I haven't seen a top 5% in the comp a player nominate to come to us for a very very long time.

Neither has Brisbane, until now.

 

[THATSGOLD]

Now that negotiations with Brisbane have ceased, Collingwood is free to pursue other opportunities involving players and picks. The club remains open to offers from other clubs for Dayne, if that is his wish.

If not, at the conclusion of the trade period the club will look to sit down with Dayne to prepare for the 2015 season.

Don't you guys read your emails?

That's the ****ing club statement!

Seems to working fine for me, I went back a few pages and he's disappeared.

 

[THATSGOLD]

The only people negotiating trades with Brisbane is bigfooty members and media w***ers.

The club said it's exploring opportunities else where!!!'

We have all read the email, Beams is just a shit bloke who is holding the club over a barrel.

The replies haven't though I bet. A series of obvious replies that are out of context? It's fine once you learn to ignore those too though.

Yeah and I've just worked out I can click on the show ignored content if I really want to know ands it even tells me the ignored member has posted.
So guess what I do? Ignore it!!
