James Bell has nominated, been very good at Glenelg. Just to put that thought into your minds.
 
I don't want to know
"Worst: 2021 – Sydney gets: 2022 R1 (tied to Melbourne), Adelaide gets: Jordan Dawson

This trade was covered off as a win for the Crows earlier but it’s worth revisiting for the disappointment it ended up being for the Swans.

Sydney lost Jordan Dawson, then used the future pick in a trade in 2022 for pick 27 – Cooper Vickery, who was delisted without playing a game – and future second and third rounders from Hawthorn.

The Swans offloaded those two futures in minor deals, while the Hawks used the pick gained to grab Josh Weddle.

The Swans got little return, while two other players are forging strong careers elsewhere."

Big yikes.

We did however get the resources by offloading those picks to get Grundy etc last season. It’s not a win but it’s a slightly better loss

Weren't those picks part of the deal that enabled us to get Grundy and still match Cleary?
 
Playing on a wing I believe. Good athlete and endurance runner. Always has been. Decision making lets him down. Be surprised if he gets picked up, even as a rookie or SSP, but wish him well, like every ex-Swan.
Yeah, don't see him being picked up.

But hope he has lots of further success at premiers Glenelg (alongside Gould), though would like him to share that with Ling (runners up) and Mattner at Sturt to coach a few (more) flags.

This is why I don't care about draft picks for established players. Absolutely no guarantee you'll get anything in return

I don't disagree, but there generally aren't other options. The days of trading a player for a player seem in the past, so there's not much you can do except taking picks. If you can turn those picks into established players via another trade then that is ideal as at least you know what you're getting for the picks, unlike at the draft. But even if you take it to the draft, it is swings and roundabouts.
 
Richmond? Picks 23 and 24 for 19 and 44. That would give us a block of three picks in a row and give them another double block in the 1st round. They could probably let both go for future 1sts, 23 and 24 might not be high enough to get future 1sts

Richmond wouldn’t do it. They are likely going to send one to next year. They’d ask for our f1, we won’t do it.

This is going to catch up to us eventually
