Lmao Frawley is a mediocre player that is now getting over paid thanks to the wonders of free agency. I bet my left nut that posters would have flipped their lids if we had got him instead of an actual gun next year. Not saying we will btw, but I sure as hell prefer locking Martin and Rance away over stretching the cap for a clogger.
Also, this "aggressive" line is just baffling to me. Our trades didn't eventuate because we didn't want to be bent over the table. The trengove trade, which was ballsy and aggressive, was 99% complete.
There is being aggressive, such as offering our first rounder for David Armitage, and there is being chumps blowing our wads early, such as buying that shittruck Waite.
I think of Adam Cooney, what a good player he is. How good was he when the doggies were good. I mean, brownlow. But how mediocre did he look in a crap team.
James Frawley, when melbourne were competetive and looking to be a real finals contender, ALL AUSTRALIAN (2010).
Even great players look mediocre in crap teams. Ablett jr being the only exception.
edit* watch essendon be even better with cooney, if not shoot me down later next year for the pre mature assumption.
