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 merely noted the irony of the comment at the end

    Permission to refer to him as Henrietta ???

    Permission to refer to him as Henrietta ???

    'H' seems simple enough for me. Kind of like a character in those James Bond movies.

  • Quote

    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

    It is interesting the deals based on other deals.

    I guess the deals must have clauses based on other deals occurring.

    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

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
