Giles has nominated Essendon.

Geez Adelaide must stink is guys are picking Essendon over them

If I had the option to battle Bellchambers for 1st ruck and prob. play most games as 2nd ruck OR battle Jacobs for 1st ruck or Jenkins for 2nd ruck/forward role, gee I wonder which one I would pick...

Yep, not some of our better posters best work on this one...

Who wins this monstrosity of a trade?

Brisbane probably over pay.

Collingwood big winners in 2 First 22 players, pick 5 and a developing player.

Feel as if North Melbourne got a little bit, but not much jipped

[Q.]

Who wins this monstrosity of a trade?

Brisbane by the length of the Flemington straight.

Brisbane winners, North the losers.

[Q.]

Add to the fact that Brisbane went in dry on Geelong to get Bundy and they are the big winners in this year's trade period.

[kickinit]

"Huge coup for Port Adelaide as Michael Voss commits as 'midfield manager'. Voss replaces recently appointed Adelaide coach Phil Walsh."

Wonder if that has anything to do with the contacts during "The Recruit"?

Didnt Polec want to leave Brisbane partly because of Voss?

As far as I remember it was more wanting to come home to Adelaide.

good to see brisbane win something

[bennymacca]

reckon the beams deal is about fair.

Yeah same here.

Can't believe North let Greenwood go so easily. 25 seems way unders for an established inside, goal kicking mid.

Got rid of a player we don't need and secure a good pick in the draft where we are already a fair way back.

Very smart decision IMO, why sign a guy for 4 years when he has played 1 good one in 6?

Don't bother trying to tell them anything factual about Greenwood mate. They've probably seen 3 North games this year and are experts on him.

I tried to tell them he's had the one good year after playing 11 games in the prior two years combined....they don't wanna listen.

Should be up there in the Brownlow next season.

[carey]

Collingwood clear winners. Got rid of an over rated hack who thinks his a lot better than what he actually is, Heres an idea Harry learn how to kick you spud.....

So why was he talking to them if it was that simple?

So you've invested 6 years in him, he's established himself in your side this year that finished top 4 and you're happy with pick 25 for him.....start again.No problem if you think its a good idea.

BTW, none of us are experts but are all entitled to an opinion and I think Greenwood for pick 25 is a loss for you blokes.

**** Averaged 25 disposal, 4.4 tackles, 0.7 goals, 5.4 marks and 101.4 AFL Supercoach points in 2014 ****


*Edit - Typing event...2014*

[Dogwatcher]

I'd be happy with that from him in 2015.
But feeling nervous about this trade.

[Dutchy]

2015...geez he was OK for the Pies

Time will tell but Im guessing Pick 25 will still be playing in 4 years time, not sure Greenwood will.

[woodublieve12]

Sydney watching everyone else trading...



Jerks...

[RustyCage]

I'd agree with the one good year out of six argument if his one good year was two or three years ago, but with it being just a few months ago, you'd have to be thinking that maybe you got rid of him too soon, invested a lot in him and then ship him off when he finally comes good.

[Dutchy]

Does he get a game ahead fo Swallow, Cunnington & Ziebell?

No. Good list management decision.
