News James Peatling chooses Adelaide

[Jeffcrowe]

I expect we are getting a discount by ensuring they got good compo pick for Cumming.

Hadn’t thought about that possibility

 

[George Kramer]

I would think there is more good outweighing that one deal

Curious, what has our trading history been? We’ve done pick swaps but players?

 

[Samcro24]

Hately?

We overpaid for him

 

[George Kramer]

We overpaid for him

Ah so they owe us

 

[Scorpus]

I don’t get that, it would involve us paying Cumming more than we wanted to and Peatling hadn’t nominated us yet

Maybe we added a few dollars during the FA lodgement that pushed it into band 2 to make GWS happy

Curtly Hampton for a 2nd round pick in 2015
Sauce for a late pick in 2019

So not a lot of history….

Pick swaps in 19 (downgrade to get fishmac) and last year too I guess.

Finn Callaghan for our 2025 1st rounder.... (Well I am projecting here)

Also a pick swap in 2018 that saw them get pick 24 (Hill) and we got pick 30 (Hamill) and a 2019 2nd (Worrell).

i thought at the time that the sixth year was added to trigger a better compo for GWS and reduce the price we had to pay for Peatling

But also Hately to PSD and no Berg trade which both Berg and GWS wanted last year

So how is that any different than the proposal that journalist put forward a few days ago about WC giving Graham a huge contract so Richmond got pick 2 as compo? It’s obviously a different scale of draft tampering, but surely the principle us the same.

It's not. Clubs should do this to manipulate the system the AFL put in place
