Bloody hell, pick 34?!
With Scoots off the table, NOW we have nothing to trade with.
Don't blame Port if they don't deal and put Stevens into the draft.
The talk has been Scoots, McG and # 17. (not great but workable)
So now its McG,#17 and #34 (yeah sure, bye bye)
Port have got nothing to lose, in that they are going to get f@#K all anyway.
In this scenario, they'll stuff him and put him in the draft. I would.
There HAS to be somebody else on our list (surprise out of left field?) that Balme is putting up as part of a trade package to satisfy Port |

Scottland wanted to go to Carlton and they were the only club wanting to pick him up apparantly. So they took what they could get. Carlton went after Scottland as they are convinced that a Stevens deal to Collingwood will be done by the deadline and they needed a mid fielder. |

I dont want to get ahead of myself but they wont put him in the draft, Williams has come close to getting the arse, that would make it a certainty, they cant not trade him because they hate us with a passion. _________________ I love Danny Allsopp, Danny Allsopp loves me! |

I think in a way the club is to blame for Scotlands departure, he is in our best 22 and the last 2 years he has only been picked in the last few games and the finals.
He is a class player and deserved more of a go.
But good luck to him, hope he does well but hopefully his club does not do the same! _________________ I love Danny Allsopp, Danny Allsopp loves me! |

Northern Pie, I reckon the reason we don't seem to get the great deals everyone else does (and frankly, every time we "trade badly" everyone seems to be happy by the start of the season and singing the club's praises), is because a lot of the other teams HATE Collingwood and are veru reluctant to want to do them a decent deal. Chocko has already proven this point for me this week. |

Scotland was taken in the '98 National Draft with pick 44. |

Hate to say it but Scotland will play 200+ games for the Blues and take home a couple of BnF's I wish him well and also think he deserved to be playing more a part in the last 2 years. He is class!
If we didn't get stevens and he goes to the blues via preseason then considering the other trades the Blues have Done, they might have a midfield to take em to the 8 next year. |

To suggest that Carlton were the only ones going hard after Scotland suggests that other clubs don't rate him as good as pick number 35. _________________ I should have never been sacked as the president of the Collingwood Football Club. |

seriously, if pick thirty-five is the best we can do for scots, then we would have been better off keeping him. North's second pick at 24 would have been closer to the mark.
Unless this year's draft is deep, or something else that i don't know about, i reckon we came out on the negative on this one.
As quote in The Age, "Collingwood onballer Heath Scotland looked a bargain trade for pick 35".
i am slightly disappointed. |
