Hate to break it to you TD but you’ve been posting the same tweet for about an hour now.
 
With 40 odd minutes left.
Says a lot about Brisbane being jerks, that 2 trades are still waiting to go through in Beams and Adams.

We're not. It's media driven hyperbole that posters in here eat up.

In recent seasons we have recruited Howe, Dunn, Adams, Treloar, Jamie Elliott, Hoskin Elliott, Greenwood, Mayne, Aish and Crisp through trades or free agency and we traded in the picks that netted us De Goey, Sier, Grundy and probably others.

Every single one of those players is at best a best 22 player or at worst was a big part of us getting into and nearly winning a grand final with a very young list.

Yes, Murray is a drug cheat. But he was having a very promising debut season and was mostly a hit until then. The outcome was unfortunate and had nothing to do with our trading. Mayne, who everyone bagged, had a role change and in the end was one of the players of the finals series and in the best 5 players on the ground in the grand final. If he stays in the same role and keeps up that level of performance, he's a genuine gun utility. The only actual flop (so far) has been Wells and he still has the time and the talent to come good.

The evidence says we are actually very good at trading and free agency picks. One of the very best clubs in the league at it in fact.
You've confused Trading & Free Agency.

I said Trading.

Adams/Treloar/Aish - we all paid TOP dollar for. They're producing, but the other sides were compensated adequately.

Dunn/Greenwood/Crisp/Mayne - we gave up Beams for Greenwood & Crisp, who is a superstar. Mayne & Dunn cost us nothing because they were unwanted.

Hoskin-Elliott/J.Elliott - we were shrewd with.

And Sam Murray wasn't going well until he hit the drug issue, lol - anyway.

It isn't media hyperbole. At all. We don't land the Tom Scully's for a 4th round draft selection, ever.
 
Well a lot of data wasted for very little activity

I don’t mind the cautious approach

Moore , Elliot , Wells , Dunn might be our best recruits I hope.
