I say we take our offer of 5 and 25 off the table Friday. If they want to deal next week pick 5 it is.
Yeah, 5 + 25 on the table until Friday 4:59pm - take it or leave it.

If not, we'll trade in Christensen instead and get Beams next year.

My girlfriend just asked me

GF "why do you spend so much time on that site?"

Me "It's so I can talk to other Brisbane fans about trades ect ect"

GF "Oh, have Brisbane traded for someone?"

Me "No.... But apparently we have till 5pm Friday"

GF "So all the time youve spent on here you have no one???"

Me "Yeah"

GF "........... Okay"


It's like she thinks I am an idiot or something.. Stupid women huh???
Glad I'm not on my own then:)

I think the major point is that it significantly weakens Beams' ability to only go to Brisbane (this year). If he just wants out of Collingwood then it is difficult to assert that he will only go to one club, particularly so, given he is still a contracted player. The family/father narrative suited him just as much as it did Collingwood. His manager stated this was 99% of the reason he was seeking to return north.

Anyhow, you guys have until Friday sundown. Do your best.
Ok partner. Meet me outside the saloon or are you yella?

So while the Pies' fallback options for the Beams trade are all crumbling away, we've now got a shot at Christensen.

Anyone else getting the sense this isn't going the way Ed & Hines had hoped?
Keeping Beams isn't going the way we had hoped? Eade just said yesterday we are keen to play Greenwood along side Pendles and Beams if he stays.

Realistically, GC can offer the better pick for Christensen unless we cough up Pick 5.

But still, I'd tell Collingwood that it's Pick 5 + 25 and MAYBE another pick in the 20's if we get the Patfull deal done and that the have until Friday.

Otherwise, we turn our attentions to Christensen.

I can provide an email list of witty remarks and gif jokes that have been used by various posters over the last few weeks. It might make more sense then?
