Neil Balme believes that the deal involving Travis Varcoe to Collingwood, Heritier Lumumba to Melbourne and Mitch Clark to Geelong is "pretty much done" live on Trade Radio.
Jesus. Really didn't want this deal to go through but I suppose I have to give him a chance since he's wearing the black and white now. In other news, Jarryd Blair is no longer no.1 on everyone's shit list.
Well, I didn't want to draft him, but if he's coming to us then we should all reserve judgement and welcome him and wish him all the best. Seems he's about to become one of us.

Premiership player, averages a goal or better a game, is quick and skilled. He's an impact player who is good for a goal or piece of brilliance but drifts in and out of games but he will fill a role as Sidebottom aside we struggle to find players to manufacture an unlikely goal.
My concern is he has injury issues but I'd much prefer him to Mitch bloody Clark for one. People were excited about getting him when he is a) from two shit clubs, b) injury riddled and c) not that good anyway.
Varcoe isn't the answer to our prayers but he has kicked 30+ a couple of times (albeit in a much better side than we are) and is a v/good shot on goal which are in scant supply at Collingwood.

correct, regardless of our view and Im 60-40 thinking its not the best deal - once he pulls on our jumper he deserves 100% support as a pies player.
I know Lynch didnt work out that well, but by all reports he had a massive contribution to the club off the field - we dont hand out the Millane award lightly.

Keep reminding me Flashman.....you're almost (not quite) convincing me.
