It was "catastrophic" because we got played on both ends of the trade. Screwed for pick 3 and over paid for Baker. If they had held their nerve another 24 hours Richmond would have had picks to give us back or we could have swapped some of hawthorn's picks for Baker. At the very least we would...

More like hawthorn f1 for 18 or 20. Giving up our F1 is digging a deeper hole

They have to get 2 F1s for TB with a max f3 going back otherwise the hate is most deserved. Sounds like we did the Baker trade to keep our word to a player manager even though we thought it was overs. If the hawks thumb their nose at this our list mangers look like idiots, nice guys but idiots.

Never seen so much hate from Eagles fans for the club. It's like this has been this tipping point for 3.5 terrible years and the fans have said enough.

Like we should have drafted Kelly as a rookie, we cannot seem.to identity talent when it's in our backyard

Eagles board is on fire, no support for this trade whatsoever. One of the worst moves in club history. I hated barrass for 14 and a F2 but would have much rather given that up for owies and Baker (who I didn't want anyway)

Which we don't need, keeps a player like Noah long out of the side.

Best team of the year gets the best young talent. 10 wins from 3 years gets you Owies and Baker. I could live with it if we got top tier talent but owies is not a need and just keeps out long or dewar. Baker is B tier at best, terrible list management. This was the year to attack the draft and...

If he spuds it up its going to be a rough 5 years.

Going to want to be bloody good for the price we paid.

This is disgusting, if we held 3 to draft night we could have got massive overs. Worst I've ever felt about the state of the club. Completely bent over for an out of contract player and a dfa

It staggering to believe we could be this stupid after all the tough talk we cannot be this dumb.

Barrass for hawks f1 and blues f1 3 and blues or hawks f1 to saints for 7 and 8 Our future 2nd for Baker

Hopefully and then he can sign as a free agent next year

Exactly my point. The club should not be the one bending. Richmond don't want him on a one year deal he can go to the pre season draft. If Baker doesn't want to do it then we move on without him. We need our draft capital more than Baker. We could have worked it next year so Richmond got a...

Getting Baker this year makes no sense from a club perspective. He is a free agent next year and we could have picked him up then at 0 cost to our draft capital. These are the kind of decisions that you never see Geelong make, they would tell baker to wait or nor worry about it. I get that Baker...

I'll be happy with him if he doesn't bring in baker for anything more than a future 2nd.

I'm curious about this also, he looks amazing in his highlights and would compliment out midfield group nicely.

Would be better for everyone if you kept him for another year then we give him a front loaded band1 offer. Better pick for you next year than you would get off us this year.

Didn't he kick 5 goals in a final last year?

The crows traded 19 with Carlton for their future first (pick 1)

Gonna have to rematch today's game on draft night...

What is Brisbane doing to keep their list so healthy? They have their share of injury prone players but manage to get them on the park

Junior back in trouble at Port? Link is pay walled...

A rookie pick with our second.... Sweet

I'm basing it on the fact that no other draft boards were even talking about him in the first round. Granted I don't read everything and am not a recruiter but I feel would could have extracted more value from the down grade

The frustration in the Chesser selection is that it appears he was on no one else's radar around our pick. Would have been nice to trade back further for more than ports 2022 second rounder.

To be fair, as the dust settles I can see the reasoning behind the pick. Shep looking unlikely, Hurn surely in his last year, Jetta already gone. A bit of speed and class off half back would be handy.

What a disappointment, would have lasted til our second pick. Johnson left on the board 😓 some has to actually win the ball.

Have to admit that the only people saying brander for Clark are eagles supporters. If I saw a few cats fans saying it I'd be more convinced.
