Nick's Collingwood Bulletin Board

Considering Beams' legitimate mental health issues, and having offered Brisbane a better than fair deal, this playing hard-ball by Brisbane is pretty pathetic.

I remember Brisbane being pricks when trading for Beams. Nothing changes.

I've sent the bears twitter account a fair few picture collages of JDG, Crispy and Levi. I reckon they might have them on their whiteboard at the moment

It was OK for them to play the compassionate card when he was under contract with us...

but when he does that as Brisbane they just Pricks about it

I like how Brisbane are making it look like Collingwood were chasing him when according to what is being reported, it was Dayne that said he wanted to come back to the Pies. I read that they want Josh Thomas as well as picks. Surely we can't be trading JT. That would kill team morale.

Walk away

Meanwhile, we're putting the Roughead trade on the backburner while this gets done. I'd switch focus to that to avoid missing the deadline.

Too late for players to be involved, unless both sides have secretly been doing stuff behind the media's backs.

JT signed yesterday for 3 years.

Dayne getting back on the bus will heal wounds on both sides and will be just what he needs at this stage of life. Its a win win. Get it done

How so? It might heal wounds for some supporters (and the opposite for other supporters), but other than that...

It'll mean a lot to Bucks and Steele in particular. Passion is good ! We'll need that extra encouragement of "tipping in" after the disappointment. There maybe some lagtime but Dayne will exemplify the passion if given the chance for recompense

We'd have to be pretty stubborn to not do the deal for the sake of 246pts even if they're all handy.

Yep, call their bluff and fold.

Get Roughy sorted, and then see if they still wanna play games...

I was just reading between the lines of what had been reported by the age and others. 246 pts might be all it takes for IQ and Kelly jnr
