how the hell does Collingwood swap picks 11 and 31 for pick 6 and jesse white?
That's gotta be the most one side trade I have ever seen

Swans : White -> pick 44
Magpies: 11, 31 -> pick 6, Jesse White
Eagles: 6 -> 11, 31( possibly traded for Yeo)
Magpies definately won that trade. Probably no big losers, but a big winner.

West Coast need a pick for Yeo so WC win by paying unders for Yeo. Going to this draft with pick 6 or 10 is no differant apperantly.
NO IFS OR BUTS HARVS IS KING OF THE AFL
Re: how the hell?
When it's all said and done, it's
6, Yeo & 49 (sweetener)
vs
11 & White
I'm a big Yeo fan and I think his career will far outweigh Jesse White so whilst it looks good for a Pies supporter on the outside, I think West Coast will come out very good with this trade. I guess the Pies were just lucky they had that early pick in the 30's West Coast were after and could then broker a deal that benefits them.

Re: how the hell?
I agree Old Mate, works well for both Pies and WC. Sydney are being mauled this year due to the Buddy cap issues which they are going to have to deal with for years to come. Then again, they paid nothing for Buddy so I doubt they would care. I hate the filth, but its a smart trade on their behalf. Considering what they got for Dawes, Wellingham, where they picked up Grundy, hell, even Young, they do very well this time of year. I'm just glad we are also getting some good deals too.

I hadn't considered that, like maybe if you do this deal for us we'll support you on x, y and z...happens in politics.WinnersOnly wrote:Reckon there is some back door type deal going on eg money changing hands etc.

Re: how the hell?
Don't get me started 
If I was Sydney, I would be shopping White around to all Melbourne clubs... collingwood should have to cough up 31 or he goes to the highest bidder.

Re: how the hell?
Collingwood have lost Thomas and Shaw incase people havent realised. They have then traded very well as people in the media have said we have done.
