Pickering is/was Treloar's manager last year.

Well maybe not a 'grudge', poor choice of words. Just a knowledge of how much of the kitty we can afford (Treloar/Swan/Pendles past deals etc) I'm guessing he just threw Geelong out there, to up the $takes.

Imagine if North bid on Callum Brown with the compo pick they received for Wells.

His old man is the senior development manager at North. But you'd still think he'd want his son to play at the Magpies. I just wouldnt put it past a rival club to do this thats all.

Wells on a back flank please.

Wells will fit perfectly into our squad. In saying that it's not a done deal yet but I am one who feels he is worth the deal.

At the members forum Bucks made a point of mentioning that Wells was the comp's second best deliverer into the 50 behind Pendles in 2016.

I see this as a large part of why we'd recruit him. Not simply because we could do with the extra class but because we are reconfiguring our forward line and bombing simply won't work anymore. Having the two best forward 50 entrants in the comp makes a smaller more mobile forward line that bit more viable.

It's hard not to believe this deal was already in the mix when we last played North in Round 18...Wells wasn't supposed to play because of injury but 'somehow' managed to take ahold of the game in the first quarter and was probably BOG. Out to impress much?

Pickering may be a flog, but he's pretty good at getting his player to where they want to go. If we are Wells' preferred club, we'll get him.

Trading week starts tomorrow right, I reckon this will be a done early one, I fully expect DTM to welcome him to the PIes on here, by early afternoon, at latest.

Stephen Wells just on SEN: Daniel Wells will not be at Geelong next season

AFL.com.au description of Daniel Wells is interesting.....

"here's suggestions that Daniel Wells could announce his move to Collingwood as early as today.
The silly North midfielder is lily to depart Arden Street, and Geelong recruiting manager Stephen Wells confirmed before that it won't be to the Cats, so Collingwood it appears to be."

Professional.

I saw that as well and laughed out loud at work.
