Did he tweet what the Lions will get back?

According to Tom Browne on 7 news an hour ago Beams will officially request a trade to the Pies tomorrow. 

Fagan was shocked to hear the news on Friday and 48 hours later a deal is done?

Don't believe it...

Beams gets 18 votes in the Brownlow this year, and potentially gets traded for pick 18.

Neale gets 11 and Freo want 5. What am I missing here?

Beams trade to facilitate Neale trade???

 

... to facilitate Hogan trade ???  I'm guessing_

Beams will be 29 when the season starts. 

Neale will be 25. 

This trade makes sense.

Most likely the Lions chatted to Beams to see if he was interested in going to Pies to try for success... he's 29Yrs_

Lions clearly want Neale... and Neale's friend, who has already committed to go to Lions... to play with Neale.

 IF Fagan does not know of it...  then the club has kept him at arms length, to protect his integrity.

From the AFL site,   How is it not Draft Tampering?

PORT Adelaide has fired a warning shot at Gold Coast, declaring it would back itself to lure highly rated draftees Jack Lukosius or Izak Rankine back home if the Suns recruit either of them. 

Port list manager Jason Cripps effectively cautioned the Suns against taking either of them when speaking to NAB AFL Trade Radio on Monday.

Draft manipulation?

Sounds more like stand over tactics.....

if nothing else it is against the AFL Draft rules and should be dealt with.

That only applies if the MFC did it!

For all other clubs it’s business as usual.

Gold Coast either have to back themselves in to keep whoever they draft or are resigned to losing them.    

Cripps is being more than a little disengenuous to suggest that they should draft a Vic because there’s a bigger market to go home to. Players now inevitably get to go to a club of their choosing.

He sounds like a playground bully, it also smacks a little of desperation over the fact that they might miss out on one of the SA kids.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
