Potential Trades [Warning: Reading this thread may self-destruct]

No he won't.

Let's hope he doesn't have to make that decision, DD.

[Ted Lasso 19,549]

Don't bet on it DD I'm betting this was a big part of why we have tried to 're sign him so early, get an idea of where he is at incase a tough decision has to be made

Ok, lets entertain this crap about jones for a second then.

He's contracted for another 12 months & restricted next year. Even if he tells the club he's eager to walk next year to the pies, they either have to satisfy us with a trade this year (currently looking like pick 5 for beams, their own 1st Rnd pick & Lumumba as real trade-able assets) or chances are we get band 1 compo next year which if we don't significantly improve in 2015 is likely to be another top 3 pick. Thus whatever we got for him this year would have to be pretty bloody good!

Either way we hold the cards, not jones nor collingwood.

So early? Gun players routinely get extensions with a year or more to go on their contracts, that's why there's soo much media hype about anyone playing their last contracted year without an extension. There is nothing early about it.

Meanwhile, players are jumping ship at collingwood left right and centre!!!

People on here were mocking suggestions pendlebury is gettable on other threads just because he's collingwoods captain...... But at demonland we like to panic and jump at shadows on the back of what a physio said.......

[thevil1 421]

You mentioned Jones said that he will sign a extension soon. That article backs up my argument.

No where is it mention he will sign an extension. Just the fact that the club are set to put an offer forward.

It says both parties are negotiating an extension. I think if he'd made up his mind to leave already they wouldn't be wasting their time talking to us much like Frawley's manager refusing further discussions all year.

Collingscum beat up Nathan's dad, won't be happening. Plus if it does I'm done with this game, not even joking.

What if we get Dangerfield though as a replacement?

What's the point if we're losing our best midfielder to accomodate another?

N. Jones ain't leaving. If he does, I leave AFL.

Lol what???

There are people here who I play forum footy with that will notify you have the wrong bloke pal.

Good try but.

Don't remember the pies playing finals this year. I think they will be absent for a few more years yet.

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

Also heard Roos wants Malcheski although not everyone was in favour.

trenners future as a floating small forward

[SaberFang 7,151]

Losing Maxwell, Beams, McCaffer and Heretier for next year is going to hurt.

Next year could be Swan's last.

Wouldn't go near that joint right now.

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

Mitch's rejection as well.

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

All i want is the dees to go hard

[dee-luded 2,959]

get Malcheski via trade.

[Straight Sets Simon 23,113]

Mitch's rejection as well.

What does this mean?

[boydie 655]

I'm expecting a quiet trade day today...

Once we get our pick for Chip then the wheels will be in motion.

The first bizarre rumour of the silly season : jeremy howe op for trade

Dont understand why this is bizarre. I have mentioned previously I expect if you are not a pure mid or true key position your name will be floated for the right price. Howe, Garland, Grimes, Watts will all be raised for the right price.

Clark chose Geelong despite Colonwood throwing everything at him.

Don't find a Howe trade surprising in the slightest. Has everyone forgotten the spray Roos gave him and Watts? He's less than in love with these two.

He was very good in defense in some games, but very quiet in others. Didn't have an interrupted preseason so no real excuse for a form slump given his fitness.

This.

Even if the twice removed rumour from a club physio is true, why would Jones go from us to the Pies? It won't be to go home/ for more opportunity.

If it's about money we can (and will) match the $$ the pies throw at him.

If it's about success there are at least 8 teams with better prospects than the pies atm.

Oh please........If coaches traded every player that he gave a spray to, we'll be trading out every player every year

[Norm Smith's Curse 2,602]

I guess he at least has some currency.
