Overall, you've got to be happy with that!.
We got another 1st round pick in a draft the club really likes.
We got rid of some excessive contracts.
We may even be able to turn our 2x 1st rounders into a top 10 pick.

Out: Treloar, Stephenson, Phillips
In: Potentially a top 10 pick, McKinnes, and an extra $2m salary cap space.

We may just be able to turn an ordinary situation into a win.

Go Pies!!!!
Thanks for the laugh Ed.

So our 2021 team is...

FB: Maynard - Roughead - Madgen
HB: Crisp - Moore - Quaynor
C: Daicos - De Goey - Noble
HF: Elliott - Mihocek - Hoskin-Elliott
FF: Ruscoe - Cox - Thomas
FOLL: Grundy - Pendlebury - Adams
INT: Sier - Rantall - Kelly - Murphy

I guess?? I have no f*n clue who our bottom 4 will be
Howe and Steele?
 
Somehow I have to explain to my son tomorrow that Adz, Atu, Flip and Stevo are all gone and we got essentially nothing in return.

Less than zero chance of a 2021 membership from me, and until there is sweeping regime change at the club that won't change.

This is too much.
Yep, just had to have that conversation with my boys tonight. They were just bewildered, and I had no real answers for them.
 
I get what Ned was saying by trying to stop the downward trajectory. That is happening with our current list, so fair enough.

But to remove 2 elite players and not replace them with a player is a disaster, so I suspect we'll be subject to some short term pain before we see any gains.

Hopefully Sidebottom, DeGoey, Rantall, Sier etc. can fill the void left by Treloar. We're not gonna be able to replace Stephenson in the forward line though.
 
For anyone not thinking straight because of the alcohol. I'll give you this timeline.
First round picks the last 5 years:

2015 & 2016 picks: Traded for Treloar
2017 pick: Selected Stephenson
2018 & 2019 picks: Traded for old mate painter Beams
2020: Trade Treloar for essentially a second rounder. Stephenson for peanuts. Delist Beams.

If you renew your membership you are a twat. This club is a dead set disgrace.
 
What bothers me most about this whole thing is
- We paid a lot for Treloar did we over pay well looking at what we got back yes (i do think he butchers the ball), we signed him or extended him to a new deal
and then basically wanted to off load him and managed it so poorly we lowered his value and got under's for him(and would have been humiliating for him and made club look terrible wait till he tells his story later) and did we assess him properly when we got him, kicking etc to make sure he suited our needs.

- Stephenson off field issues but a talent, a top 10 pick, how can we not develop him, instead i see this quote from Stephenson after the draft about our coach ""He also said he saw a few things this year, which he didn't like [in me] as a footballer and that's probably completely fair enough" but gee can't we develop our talent, Mick may have been past his use by but he could certainly get the best out of players (Swan case in point) seems that Bucks doesn't have that we have players like Sier even De Goey to a point just stagnating on our list not really improving, De Goey all the tools to be a beast like Martin in mid, but hasn't taken that step.

- Phillips I don't know, I did hear his manager say he wants to play on wing this was a big influence on his choice, is that another development issue?
If you can’t play li8e Buckley played then he simply can’t develop you because he has nfi about how other positions play.
If Buckley actually could coach, then every player would have 90% kicking efficiency over 50 metres. But the fact, yes fact, that Treloar leaves us as still one of the biggest butchers of the ball in the whole competition.
Why haven’t we understood this before?
Oh wait, I have!
 
I know everyone is saying I hope Treloar kills it, etc.

Same.

But I will go down to Centrelink and find Ned Guy and give him a wink if I hear that Treloar has taken mental health leave next year.
or does a hammy. they are the enemy now..
just sucks we still have Pro Hart on the books still.

If it’s a straight swap it’s got to be for 11 minimum. Otherwise keep him he could be anything.

I think it’s all but certain list management and recruiting teams will be gutted and start again after the draft.

whats the bet someone like Silvagni comes on board ?

The good old days when we used to hang shit on SOS - now the dope would be a big improvement

Don't forget to mention Broomhead and Shaz. Makes the kid's day.
