Umm dont know yet, I thought I heard Fraser was on offer for Ball.
Edit: O well Jolley is good for our ruck, but what will this do to Cameron Woods prospects as the future 1st Ruckman. Does anyone know more about this Fraser for Ball deal? Did it fall through?
Further Edit: Never mind just found everything out on AFL.com.au. However I cant see Collingwood bringing home a flag unless Jack Anthony can prove himself as a player who can bag 5 or 6 every 4 or 5 games.
As for Lions offloading a draft pick and Henderson for Fev, they are big winners for the trade week. Carlton will have their work cut out for them next year unless someone puts their hand up big time in the forward line.
My Physio is a Carlton member and tells me he (and many others) are MUCH happier with the trade thry got than the Bradshaw trade because Henderson will become a key forward in years to come. I agree in the immediate future it may hurt them but I tend to agree that the deal they got was better than the Bradshaw deal.

1) Few teams can fit two years @ $700k into their salary cap and 2) not many teams will give Carlton what they desire for a player with his on field record, especially with the upcoming 'tainted' drafts.
It's Carlton's way of telling big Fev to straighten up and fly right while proving to Australia that they are a responsible club. Put your
bottom dollar on their football manager saying "we couldn't attract a suitable offer, therefore Fevola will stay at Carlton."
I think carlton did much better out of the deal than they where originally going to get. A 31 y/o and a average midfielder now they essentially got 2 first round picks with hendersen being there first round in 08. Would laugh my ass off if Fev got delisted over the sex allegations and brisbane mean time loose 2 good picks
