Sure, it wasn't Rawlings putting him foot down from the start...

We had an academia recruitment option in luff, dare say i dont have to add any more.
statistician, meh! Personally think Perplexed raises some valid points re list management and trading (as distinct from talent identification which is where you're footy experience comes from). In my view, AFL teams could do well by tapping into financial markets skill sets in list management (portfolio management, optimisation within constraints, risk management, psychology of trading). Not saying its black and white, but there are parallels with players as assets, to be invested in, and traded, interactions between players and player types ( covariance), and how they accrue to maximising the value of the overall team (portfolio).

I think he does fill a gaping need. Distribution of HB plus experience of what it's like to be in a good side.

25 was a bit rich, but it's hardly make or break.

I tend to agree, its one thing to look at a trade in isolation, but I prefer to look at it in context of value to the team and what skill set and attributes he can contribute to develop synergies and make the whole team better. An extreme example is LDU is our best player, but having a team of LDU's isn't a flag winning team.
 
funny you post that, I actually am involved in baseball (and financial markets)....but there is no edge in "money ball" approach,,,,that's just a ticket to compete these days and no coincidence that the Yankees, Dodgers, and Mets have the biggest payrolls and look at the end of season results. AFL is different with the cap BUT increasingly the combines given everyone access to the same data. So I think the art in AFL is to manage your cap amonst a portfolio of players in age, development, and abilities. Identifying DFA's, state league players, older guys, players out of favour at other clubs, that can play a role and on minimum pay, so that you can keep and attract the high end talent. That's where I think things get interesting for North starting next season with LDU. Yeah we have some talent, but now we have to sell them the dream and keep them there all together, and why I think it was important to bring in the mature players that we have.

Probably because North would win that deal hands down. Richmond are not quite that stupid.
Have a look at past drafts and see if North would win the deal hands down. You’ll be surprised. You don’t give up pick 2 in a draft unless the offer is too good to refuse. 6 and 11 we might do because of our circumstance this year but odds are we’d lose on the trade.
