        Have a similar story myself, the man had massive mits.
        He was at the Cricketers ,pretty sure he was just managing though and left to purchase The Duke of Wellington in Flinders St.

            Some of the things that get suggested - Bloke on SEN yesterday that Richmond were gonna trade Jack Riewoldt and a draft pick to Gold Coast for Dion Prestia. Nuts.

                Saw this one on Facebook, ridiculous:

                Todd Goldstein North is on the trade table. Internal issues at North are the reasons and the Dogs are very keen. A deal with players like Honeychurch, Jong and Hrovat being offered.

                        If I were offered Goldstein for either Honeychurch, Jong or both I'd take it on a heartbeat. I would do everything humanly possible to get Hrovat to recontract with us. Players who can use the ball like Hrovat are exactly the sort of players we should be targeting.
                        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                            Collingwood paying big bucks for Daniel Wells is astounding. I have doubts he will last 3 years and Collingwood will not play in a Grand Final within the next 3 years. HE is 32 before the start of the 2017 season. Is crazy Bucks just trying to make the 8 to the detriment of the long-term benefit of the club?
                            But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                                Yep. Straight from his coaching mentor's playbook.

                                        Anyone else get the feeling that due to our unexpected success with an unheralded list, some coaches are going to get a little crazy this trade period? I reckon there might be a few that think 'if the Dogs can win it all, we only need Player X to be a real contender'.
                                        Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                                            Collingwood under Malthouse! If in doubt get Liam Jones for $1,000,000 or Wells for $1,600,000...

                                                        You're right we should really throw in "Steak Knives" Tom Boyd as well.
