This free agency compensation is an absolute disgrace, hawthorn getting pick 19 for franklin and then melbourne receiving a pick 23 for sylvia.
Furthermore, if Vince is worth pick 23 for Melbourne to hand over, I just do not understand how is Brisbane insisting on pick 28 for Docherty while we offered them pick 29. This just shows the desperation from that club, they're in real trouble.

Riddle me this... If they're easy as piss to get then why are we in such short supply of quality ones?



Of the three Dal Santo is the one I'd be most satisfied with. He doesn't need to be the out and out champion that he was to play his role at North. Just needs to provide them some class - their grunt will do the rest for him.

Essendon desperate to win a flag to deflect the public opinion. Personally, I think if they come close it'll make it worse. Perhaps they don't care at this point.

As for Adelaide... That's a weird one. They were struggling this year before Walker's injury. They would have been better off investing that money into a younger player. Instead, they get a player who will serve as protection for Walker whilst he recovers fully from the injury. Problem is he's not a world beater and I feel that they already had players that could do that for Tex. He's just a lovely story hanging on.

Because our list management and development has been ordinary.
 
Hi All, interesting that we received nothing for Eddie just because we drafted Thomas. No other team that picked up a free agent lose a pick in the draft for doing so. Sydney get Franklin and keep their first round pick, Adelaide, North & Freo all keep their picks and get a free agent.....doesn't seem fair.

Understanding (to a point) the nature of F.A. no-one expected us to receive any compo for Betts.

We knew what we were dealing with and the good outweighs the bad whichever way.
 
Don't think it's too outrageous to claim GWS are doing the right thing. Adams is worth more than Shaw, not to mention Collingwood want to get rid of Shaw.

Would be content with our first rounder for Adams though I'm sure Collingwood will come to their senses. Maybe not downgrading their first pick but perhaps their second.
 
Brissy were probably counting on the fact our picks would have been pushed out to 32 and 33.
The dogs could be frustrating here.


Would be pretty mean spirited of Brisbane to now play the "We didn't know" card.

They would have well known that their pick would have been 31 at best. Docherty would be devastated.
 
Pick 11 for Thomas
Pick 19 for Franklin.
Pick 23 for losing Colin Sylvia
Pick 25 for losing Nick Dal Santo.
Nothing for Ellis.
Nothing for White.

So Buddy is worth as much as Dal Santo and Sylvia, but less than Dale Thomas. :oops:

Going by age and contract at new club size... Buddy should have garnered a compo pick around the #2 or #3 mark and pick #19... after all... what did the Geebungs get for gablett?

Could be why they held out.
Perhaps no intention of trading with the blues.

and if the blues could have traded him when it was a choice between pick 28 and 29, it wont wash well with fans.

They could have traded him to gws or gcs when they had the window of opportunity.
