2012 Trade Period - Your clubs performance

[FlowersByIrene]

I was not a fan of our trade period personally but it was high risk/high reward. Losing Goddard for pick 13 was bullshit but not much we can do about that. Picked up some very promising if speculative young players.

Very much a time will tell scenario, I'd give us a C at the moment but I think it genuinely could end up anywhere from an A to an F.

I personally think you would have had a far better trade period if you had of taken your two first founders to the draft, on traded cripps to get two second rounders...

Considering Jaksch will be around at 12 he's probably just as good as lee and younger and you get a decent midfieder like vlastuin or Kennedy at 13... Would have been a better fit for you knowing all of your a graders will be retiring very soon

I wasn't happy about us trading both pick 12 and 13 and I feel we paid overs for Lee and Hickey. But both are great prospects and still very young. Like I said time will tell, they could both become stars or they could both fail and leave us severely regretting the trade.
