If we want to get something decent, we need to give up something decent. I know it's a difficult concept to comprehend, but it's fact. I think a lot of clubs rate Goldy because he gets 1000+ hitouts per week. I personally don't rate him highly because he gives so little around the ground - 8 possessions last night. 1 mark. And if I'm not mistaken, he had 8 possessions at 3/4 time!!!! I know 2-3 years ago a lot of guys here were banging on that Goldy was tracking ahead of Cox at the same stage of their careers. How's that looking now?
Hitouts are over-rated - how many actually result in quality clearances per game - 2 to 3? And Kreuzer showed how valuable a ruckman can be when he can effectively become another midfielder.
Goldy has been smashed this year by Tom Nicholls (on debut vs GC), Zac Smith from Freo, Kreuzer last night.........
So we've re-signed Daw. Currie looked good in the pre-season. Has the club got the balls to make a big play for a decent trade-pick or will we continue to offer up scraps in the blind faith that a club is stupid enough out there to accept our trash?
