Im trying to look on the bright side here... at least we get that traitorous Judas out of Arden Street!
 
Yeah sure the trade was a bit meh but its neither here nor there imo.

JHF has turned into 2 and a future first. Fairly happy with this as I dont think Port will actually go any higher on the ladder next year and could potentially drop.
1 has turned into 3, 40 and 43 essentially. While on the surface it doesnt seem the greatest, Without trading pick 1 we dont get pick 2 with the HF trade. Trading our first pick has upgraded ports first this year 6 spots

Having picks 2 and 3 is a powerful position in the draft. 2 of Sheez, Wardlaw and Tsatas ( possibly Cadman as well ) is a damn good draft haul imo.

Ideally would have liked more than ending up with 40 and 43 but those will come in once the Lions match bids for their father sons. Roughly to 35 and 38. Now if we could trade those together for a mid 20s pick things arnt looking so bad. Or we snag another Paul Curtis on that 35 to 40 range )

so we could have had 1 and 2, for the next month and bent GWS over a little, but we think it smarter to hand 1 over for 3 and picks 40 and 43, because fingers crossed they don't change their mind before draft night, I have to go and have a sleep FMD

Yep.

Even better when we finish last next year and have to call another mid like Harley Reid 🤦‍♂️

There’s not much between the 3, but this year was the year to take the tall.

We deserve everything we get from the media next year with Cadman at GWS

We should have just taken 1,8,12 to the draft imo.
We can’t even play the mids we have as mids.

And we’re going to draft another plus a HFF at 2/3.

Siiiiick.
 
We don't even have the currency to trade in Clark i mean f*ck me, couldn't even get Pick 33 from Port?

So I've taken some time to review the deal. Yeah, it's s**t for us.

Why the rush to get it done today for a deal that didn't result in maximum value for us? Why not make them sweat another day or 2 to improve the offer?
We blinked first. Our "leaders" are poor at deal making. Couldn't sell a school boy to a pedophile.
Mabie we have other irons in the fire that need to be done before Wednesday?
 
So we lose:
  • 'Generational' pick 1, plus a year of development, from a bargaining position of strength
  • Pick 1
  • Future 3rd (as high as pick 37?)
For:

  • Pick 2
  • Pick 3
  • 2 X 40s picks
  • Port's future 1st round

* me dead. This rebuild could go on forever.

So to quote @buttox



4 spots unspoken for once JHF is out.

6 picks available: 2, 3, 40, 43, 59, 70.

I suppose if we were lucky, we could package 3 into a second rounder for a team that needs a f/s.
I heard someone say or post that Cooper Harvey may have a bid late 2nd early 3rd (30-40). Which may absorb 40 and dilute 43. Then we probably don't use 70.

So we only had to give away our 'generational talent' No.1 pick to get that well-deserved high PP....

We need to put a curse on Port, break out the voodoo dolls, do anything to make next season as unpleasant as possible for as many Port players as possible, and perhaps we can hex them to a wooden spoon.:)
 
I don’t understand the argument we traded 2 first overall picks for picks 2 & 3.

A. Happily trade that Judas prick from our club, he is a selfish prima donna that never wanted to be here. And,

B. who can say for certain that the players we take at 2 and 3 dont become 300+ gamers/ premiership players/ Brownlow medalist or all Australians for us??

If anything (IMO) we have just evenly spread greater talent over the squad.

I understand the disappointment, but it is in no way possible to call this a failure for at least 3-5 years.

I’m going full scorched earth at this stage.

No qualms about hoping for an epidemic of multiple season ending injuries.
 
If Wardlaw is running around dominating the Rising Star award and Sheezel looks good then well be celebrating this trade next season. Two Vic boys with good heads on their shoulders.

Even more so if Port aren't top 6.

We can't overlook that Wardlaw is an Essendon supporter, question marks. :stern look
 
What was the offer from Adelaide last year? 2 top 5 picks and another first rounder? Now we've given up TWO pick 1s for the same deal. Amazing.
