List Mgmt. Did we lose the Treloar Trade?

Did they deliberately leave out Sier with our 2nd round pick back and then forget to quote that the 3 players in the article all received academy discounts so we couldn't have drafted them if the picks remained with us, actually inflating the benefit to GWS ? How's that different to the Beams deal but but but we gave up 2 x 1st rounders for Beams? IQ was a freebie???

Those Picks ended up pick 9 in 2015 and pick 7 in 2016 after academy bids. GWS actually traded pick 7 2016 and Cam McCarthy to Freo for pick 3. Later trading pick 3 + 16 to BL for pick 2 and 31. They took Taranto with pick 2. Journo's are really quite lazy these days and inaccurate with their reporting or deliberate absence of facts to help pump up a story.

The players taken with our pick 9 were Sam Weideman and pick 7 Griffen Logue. Given our list shape quite likely we take Weideman as he was rated higher than Curnow by most draft watchers and it was a toss up between Jack Scrimshaw and Griffen Logue. Not sure we're losing the trade with the players we likely would have drafted or had available to us.

Edit: Hahaha barrackers beat me too it.
Not sure who one the trade but you win the reasoning argument.

The likely players we had access to was far less than GWS, our opportunity cost means we did better than had we kept the picks.

It’s quite possible both sides won, there are no losers.
 
Not might, out should be. Judd got way more out of that than Carlton. They can bang on about bring a goal from a prelim all they want, but they were nowhere near a flag and gave up one of the best modern day key-forwards and a top draft pick, all they got in return was a brownlow
Some much needed leadership and stability at the time also. Still didn’t help them because they are scum.

Clearly all Richmond supporters are decendants of Nostrdamus the way the flogs bang on about him choosing Pies list over theirs. Wasnt much in it at the time and probably still isn't now.

Notwithstanding I agree with your comments regarding Richmond supporters, respectfully there is a bit in it - 2 flags difference.

Offloading Treloar to Gold Coast for their 1st rounder would be a massive win for us. And think it through, Gold Coast are likely the only club that would do the deal. This opportunity probably wont present itself again and its a shame the Club can't force the deal. It's such a no brainer.

Says it all really.
 
2016 draft isn't looking that great atm Pies got an established hard running quick star I'm pretty happy with the trade-in hindsight

Pies probably did pay to much.

Gubby got us again.
Think it was more Dave Matthews
