This could blow up in our face as well as Carltoons.
What if Carltoon dig their heals in a don't come to the party for pick 19?
In effect we have given up a higher valued pick next year for nothing.
Yes i understand that Yarran will sit out the year and we could get him for nothing next year,But is next year without Yarran are we going to improve enough(while others around us will)to even make the 8 and if not then that future 2nd rnd pick we gave away for nothing becomes more valuable to the suns and not us.
And may i add a year out of the Top level isn't going to help matters in regards to Yarran.
I hope Blair and Co know what they are doing.

Plenty of clubs this year need points for there academy kids, both of our picks should net us something very good this year in terms of a possible player+top10 pick this year.

Either way, we've improved our drafting position for this year and improved our trading hand with our current picks.

I have a feeling that the AFLPA will step in and resolve this, won't look good on the AFL and nor is it fair for a player to be sitting the whole year out at a club he despises and no longer wants to play for.
 
Don't forget the importance of keeping our first Rd pick this year. If we want to go all out for an O'Meara or Prestia or other doozy next offseason we will most prob need two firsts and will be able to trade our 2017 first assuming we have kept this seasons one.

Carlton will accept 19, they are just being Arsebats
This.
The significance here is we give our first here and we are restricted next year to land someone huge (hopefully Wines or Prestia). Hold firm. Its 19 or catch ya later Carlolton. Absolute bunch of arsebat campaigners.
 
I didn't know this about our 1st pick this year. Why would they have made that a rule given we are trading in the present not the future?
In any 4 year window you must have 2 first round picks. So if we trade this years then we can only trade one of the next two years unless we get another in somehow. That's how I read it anyways

I'd give pick 19 for all 4 players. I think Carlton are actually doing pretty well there. Let's f*** Carlton up completely
Na no way. Hampson is better than Phillips. Sumner can't even have high possession games in the NEAFL. Plowman's too small for a key defender and Lamb is not worth the pay packet. Quantity does not equal quality. We'd be better off giving 19 for Jack Steele, but he'd probably cost 12

To f*** over Carlton in a deal nearly sways me ahead of making a decent deal happen

Fully agree, gws will clear out those spuds with none likely to make it , much like Jacksch
 
Haha I went to the Carlton vs Hawthorn game this year at Etihad. Carlton dude in front of me was on his phone the whole time, looked up to check the game maybe once or twice. To his credit though, he lasted like a champ and left at 3QT. #sobrave

like this other Carlton flog i know when they were up and about when they were winning years ago he was at footy every week had a membership etc , texting me BS, how many ****ing games he go to this year ?? zilch , soft **** he's not even a member anymore.

Carlton think they're getting a bargain, but GWS are actually just using them to gain a bit of cap room and help with their list squeeze
