Never thought I'd prefer Big Footy to Nick's, but it's happened.

See you over there. About done with the acceptance on nicks of 1 or 2 obvious trolls, collie dog being the most blatant and obvious and the constant fighting that's comes as a result of their posts.

I note quite a few posters i used to enjoy reading have disappeared yourself as one, tannin , and since David became a mod he rarely posts as well.

It's a shame.

I personally refuse to be part of any "brigade" as for me there's a balance. It's neither the end of world, nor is it good times at collingwood at present.

Hey, I'm still posting a fair bit! Perhaps a little more in the VPT, but that's probably always been the case. Just not as much football to talk about in the off-season.

Re: the "sad-sack vs whoever" wars, we are trying really hard at the moment to get on top of the situation. Please bear with us.

Chin up mate, remember, it took five years for the US Civil War to end.

Try putting that in a more specific context.

Change name from Nicks BB, to "perceptive fellow" vs Sunshine & Lollipops BB.
Fkn over this shit..........
Arguing and disagreeing is natural - but the same fkn argument on every fkn thread???????!!!!!!!!!!!!

At one time I found Jacks Pain slightly amusing - as Collie Dog he's gotten worse and is just downright taking the piss out of this place now.

And sorry 1061.
I take back the Clocking Device accusation, obviously it's actually Daffy Duck.

Tempting isn't it. Mood seems to have lightened the last week or so, so maybe worth persevering.

You can put me on ignore any time Daz.

I'll just come up and tell you the same stuff when we meet anyway....

Beams for pick 4 and Redden.

( Hine to Brisbane)

It's a deal, it's a steal - it's sale of the damn century, actually **** it leppa, I think we might keep him.

I can't get my head around how people (namely Brisbane staff and Nathan Brown on Trade Radio) can avoid reality so easily.
Question 1; Would Beams be the best player on Brisbane's list from day one.
Answer ; YES
On this premise alone, how can anyone contemplate a first round pick and a second round pick is acceptable ?
Surely this is not that hard. Precedence is the Judd deal. Redden and or Mayes do not have the upside of Kennedy and pick 4 is less than pick 3 (which Carlton received and they got a 2nd rounder also). It was accepted across the industry that the Judd deal was appropriate. It also needs to be noted that Beams is 2 years younger than Judd at the time of a trade.
5pm this Friday cannot come quick enough. My tolerance for dills in the media is diminishing rapidly.

Mine diminished years ago. Most of them are bloody hack journos who woudnt get a gig doing anything else.....

In all fairness Beams is half the player Judd was at the time of his trade.

If we get Greenwood from North, I'd rather get draft picks from the lions for Beams, rather than a pick and a player......unless the player is Aish.

If Judd was a 10, Beams is a 7.5 and Pick5 and Redden / Mayes is 75% of the Judd deal.
I think suggesting Beams is a 5 against where Judd was is a bit rich.

Levi Greenwood wants Collingwood.

I want Collingwood too. To win a premiership soon.

In response......

And I see the Lions fans are thinking they can do a 3 way deal, fact is though we don't need any help to get Greenwood, our second rounder and an exchange of 3rd rounders should do the trick.
