That's bending the truth a bit.You said we'd get all 3 picks for Bolton and all 3 for Rioli
For Rioli I said 6, 13 & 20 but, and it's a big but - we pay a large chunk of Rioli's salary, and we give back picks that add up to more points than pick 20.
We got pretty close to that as we did a deal with Brisbane for 20 with the late picks. So say it ended up being 6, 23 & 20 and by the sounds of it we ain't paying any salary.
Of course all the salary and picks back got missed when the Chinese whispers had it at 3 first rounders for Rioli.
If GC didn't offload Lukosius and his big salary - who knows they may have had to have us pay Rioli's wage and it may have been even better than what we got.
Bolton - I said we should demand 3 picks. Pay a chunk of salary. Always ask for more. Well we got 10 & 11 with a small slide back and apparently not paying any salary.
The outcomes and what I said are hardly miles apart considering we aren't paying them to play elsewhere.
