When I first heard about the Dangerfield play I thought "yeah right".... but to the best of my knowledge the Crows haven't even commented on it... for mine that makes it a serious possibility. If it were a possibility then it's down to what the Crows want from Brisbane. Pick 4 and???
We have to play hard ball. Our club is a business, they have a 2 year contract left on one of the best players in the comp. You do not, even in these circumstances, let him go for anything less than the best. As I said in another thread our age/experience profile has gone waaaaayyy to far to youth/inexperience. We must replace Beams with an experienced player. Pick 4 is irrelevant at this stage I believe.
We shall see I guess. _________________ Side By Side Forever |

Looks like maybe Adams isn't Buckley's favourite player . _________________ Well done boys! |

I'm confused by your confusion.
What's the confusion here?

^^Just that if Hanley was coming to Collingwood Brisbane would be asking for Pendlebury or Beams. Maybe they would, but it's not a good comparison to the deal we're trying to strike as it's nowhere near fair price.
Clearly though, Hanley is in his thinking. He'd certainly be a good addition to our backline. _________________ Well done boys! |

what is swallow and o'meara's contract at?
we have enough talls, we will need a midfielder seeing as swan is almost/is 30 |
Swallow re-signed this year so he's contracted to the Suns until the end of 2017 and O'Meara re-signed last year which extends his deal with the Suns until the end of 2016. _________________ | 1902 | 1903 | 1910 | 1917 | 1919 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929 | 1930 | 1935 | 1936 | 1953 | 1958 | 1990 | 2010 | 2023 | |

Pearce Hanley just had his brother join him in Brisbane. He's not coming to Collingwood unfortunately.
Beams declared his father had beaten cancer 2 weeks ago. That's great news for him, and while I realise there is risk of a relapse, it seems to make it a little less necessary to disappear from Collingwood. _________________ One team, one dream - the Pies and this year's premiership |

You think?
Not a very good negotiating technique, he's made Hanley sound the equal of beams....
Feels like amateur hour at Collingwood, if I smell blood the wolves almost certainly do............. |

If this is true, what the hell is going on? Sorry but if that's the case then that strengthens our position if you ask me, regardless of Beams' wishes. _________________ Side By Side Forever |

If Brisbane is the preferred option I have NFI what players they have that we may want. Not sure if just taking an inferior (to Dayne) midfielder is the way to go, we have enough of those already. |
The problem is stui that the Suns have not declared any interest in trading for Beams. |
Give it time. Players of Beams quality don't become available all too often. |

Rumour is that his father may not have been completely honest with the family when he was claiming he'd beaten cancer and only last week disclosed the reality of his situation, and that apparently is not good. Obviously no public statements so it remains guess work at this stage. |

if he plays for us next year we will receive bugger all in the free agency for him. So we have to get the best possible trade this season for him |

Yep. I reckon that is on the money.
Otherwise we hope like hell that the Lions do worse than 4th bottom next year. _________________ “I even went as far as becoming a Southern Baptist until I realised they didn’t keep ‘em under long enough” Kinky Friedman |
