I’d be willing to trade Pick #1 for Shiel, Setterfield, Coniglio and Ward.
I’d ask for Josh Kelly also - but I’m not greedy

So what, needed to go to get deal done. He was a problem child. Ideal time to trade. Missed the boat there and lost Kennedy. Greg Swann...idiot...

Ditto
His on field issues of petulance, giving 50 metres away is why trading him , would have been smart move.

West Coast wanted Cotchin.
Eagles really wanted kennedy, not so much fevola.
and we didn’t want to give up pick one.

Not if you saw him break his ankle bad. Looked to me like he was never going to make it back in 2018. Horrid injury
Too bad. That is what the deal should have been. When push come to shove they would have taken it. We were stupid under Swann to do they way we did it. Trading Kennedy then would be like trading Harry McKay now as steak knifes in a deal to get Shiel. dumb!!!

20 pages over night and now Scully is in the mix? So hard to keep up...
have we got Hogan yet ?
Will be one hell of a trade period.......
A little reminder, SOS has NEVER traded out valuable picks, for established players, so I doubt he will do it, especially this year.

When we made our pitch to Shiel yesterday, don’t you think a fair part of it would have been around giving him the chance to play with Cripps, Charlie, and Docherty? It was the same with the Judd trade and giving him the chance to play with Fev. Not only that, but my understanding has always been that Judd declared he wasn’t interested if we didn’t have Fev.
Put it the other way. What do you think our chances of Shiel would be if we told him that the only way we could trade for him would be by way of jettisoning Cripps or Curnow? A graders want to play with A grade talent. Fev had flaws, but he was A grade talent. Judd wanted him here.
He was and then some complications arose from infection.

3 years maybe. Not that good when we need to be bringing in guys that hopefully will be part of a premiership side going forward. I dont believe he is what we require
If I could go back in time I would have kept pick 1 and selected Dangerfield.
Also, if I went back in time I would have traded Fevola instead of Kennedy. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
FWIW here's how I am seeing what we are doing.
Going for quality to add to the midfield. Names like Shiel Gaff Setterfield Tyson maybe Libba have been our targets then we want Walsh
Adding McGovern makes a big difference to our forward line and our backline is set. We will look at adding cheaper options to these areas as depth options

Pretty sure, the rumour was GWS offered Shiel, Setterfield and Scully for pick 1 this year, no rumour that SOS would entertain the offer....
and it is this type of thinking that had us lose Kennedy after putting two years into his development. Dumb. Fevola was A grade talent, but he had on field flaws, that were bad for team culture. You had the but around the wrong way....
He would give too many 50 metres away being petulant. I loved his talent but hated his flaws just as much. It was perfect time to get Judd and give up something of A grade talent that also had serious flaws for team football. I was asked what I would have done and at the time it is what I would have done, and decade on still think the same. Only pissed me off more when years later shit hit fan and we traded him much later when he was damaged good and got less than his value.

We could get serterfield for a pick approx 20.
And scully isnt really the right age bracket.
I expect walsh to go past all 3 players mentioned in 4 years time when we are banging down the door of a premiership.
It was Judd +46 for Kennedy + pick 4 +20 so your comparison isn’t quite right
Given the option, would have traded pick 1 if it meant keeping Kennedy +pick 4 +20
Adamant at the time that we overpaid. Having kept pick 1 though, I would have gone small and taken Cotchin over Kreuzer.
Would you give up Cotchin to get a 27/28 yo mid coming off a serious injury (Scully) + masten?

Would be Cray Cray not to entertain the offer
Correct, Judd stated he was looking forward to having a player like Fev to kick to.
