It is funny watching people lose it over the idea of trading for a future pick. Yet it’s the exact reason we have so many picks this year.
Maybe we didn’t do the trade last year with one single player in mind. But it was clearly done so we could be active and target players - whether it was McDonald, Warner, Pickett or Bolton. It’s easier to lay the groundwork when a manager knows you can get the trade done.
Agree.
Imagine grabbing some kid at pick 11 that will play next to no AFL next year.
Then, Warner and Pickett ask for trades. Or Warner and Hill. Or any 2 guys really.
I’m ok at moving one pick into next year, BUT if it becomes a hypothetical pick ~3 we must split it instantly. No just handing it over for Chad.
