They gain the lead up forward they do need, whilst getting good value for Lids and Tuck

Dear o dear.

I sat in the Collingwood chear squad (for reasons outide my control) for some of the Richmond / C'wood 90 point loss game. Was one of the most unpleasent times of my life thus far.

Ok, so it's not about upcoming games, but it's about the upcoming trade week....

Have a look at this pearler from the Collingwood BF board!!

Quote from: Hells K1tch3n
Cloke and pick 6 -> Richmond
Deledio, Tuck and Pick 3 -> Collingwood
Cloke is not the type of forward we need atm. I honestly believe there is no point having the really good lead up forward if you dont have a target for him to kick to in the forward 50. We can cover the loss of Cloke with dawes, or even have Medders play the lead up role similar to 2008 when Cloke was injured. Richmond maintain the early draft pick to add a midfielder, which will probably come down to the one that Kangas dont pick out of Martin and Gary Rohan. They gain the lead up forward they do need, whilst getting good value for Lids and Tuck.
But wait, there's more:

Quote from: Hells K1tch3n
I guess it really depends on how Hardwick approaches coaching. Honestly, is he really going to want such an outside player like Deledio, will he put a premium on a lead up forward. Sure he hasnt had such a great year, but lead up players of his quality with 100 games arent cheap, and in this draft there isnt much difference between pick 3 and 6, especially if you're looking for a midfielder cause you have already traded for a KPP...

Oh dear....  :lol

EDIT: Oh, if you're wondering where pick 6 came from, they traded Josh Fraser to Sydney for it!!  :lol  :lol

Thank you very very much Wayne for bringing such mirth to an otherwise dreary day.   :scream :lol :rollin :lol :scream

 You can only come to one conclusion.... Hells K1tch3n is on some excellent hallucinatory drugs.
