If Collingwood wanted to trade fairly for him and he went there during the trading period - fair enough. If he wound up going to Melbourne, Essendon or Brisbane in the draft - that's football. But when Collingwood don't offer fair value for him during trading and still get him in the draft - very disappointing. I hope he goes on to have a successful carreer but the whole thing has left a bad taste in my mouth. As a St.Kilda supporter and member I was extremely disappointed Luke wound up at Collingwood.

But when Collingwood don’t offer fair value for him during trading and still get him in the draft – very disappointing.

Its not good enough for Ball, or anyone else on the 'Pies team to just play and win games. Enough with the preparation already. Collingwood must win the flag.
