My strategy would be to let Collingwood make all their other moves, delay a bit in the trade period, and then hopefully they still need to move him for everybody's sanity as well as their list balance after preparing for life without Harry...

Then at the last minute, once they have to move him... lowball them like crazy.

Pies have said they think it's best that Lumumba moves on for both parties, they have made their decision and whilst they wont off load him for nothing they really can't justify now asking for a high pick

"I think when you go through those times ... I mean I had to work out – H and I both had to work out – if we thought that we had a relationship that could continue," Buckley said earlier this year.

A year on, Buckley has decided that the contracted premiership player should look at his options to play elsewhere next year

When you compare a bloke like Buckley, who shoots his mouth off in press conferences and doesn't consider the consequences, and then you look at our bloke, they are world's apart. Roos is always angling at something, always very considered. We're very lucky.

Lumumba getting under Buckley's skin is worth extra brownie points.

I wish we were preparing for life without Harry.

I'm comfortable with HL, Roos is light years ahead of Buckley in terms of soft skills. And watching HL shepherd Barry Hall for Maxwell shows he's got a big heart (see 50 second mark) pick 23 or 28 not fussed. Vince was supposed to be a problem child, had a great year. Cross was solid for his games, Pederson and Dunn both re-born. Hell he even got a hug from the Dalai Lama, he's practically anointed. And can kick a 65m goal...

DC, a fan produced video? whats your point? he can play, he has heart, couldn't kill him with an iron bar, how is it ok for Brett Kirk to be alternative and not HL, it actually makes me think if he says he wants to come hear he might actually mean it.

I wonder where the name thing came from?

Was it his original birth name, or did he make it up himself?

Funny.....as I was typing this I was thinking of how many times the Collingwood fans would have discussed exactly the same topic.

Far beyond their intellectual capacity I would imagine - many probably didn't even notice the name change

"the prince... the one who will have the last laugh , and is gifted"

lol this bloke is hilarious

hilarious maybe - I just hope he don't really take himself too seriously

i don't know how you read any criticism of h into my post ikk. were you smoking something?

i merely noted the irony of the comment at the end

I will call him whatever he wants as long as he runs and carries then kicks the ball 50m instead of this crap 15mtr kick backwards

The Beams deal has just gone through. Beams for picks 5 & 25 and some other Lions player i have never heard of.

Apparently, this will allow this 5 team mega deal to go ahead.

Frightening thought that Collingwood have worked their way into pick 5!

and they got ripped off

Losing a proven superstar for draft picks is hilarious, and they wont get any of Petracca, Brayshaw or McCartin

I love it

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
