But we also dont play hard ball. Its just frustrating as we need the draft capital to rebuild.
You want to be dodoro and play hardball send them to the draft and getting nothing for a player?
Culture?
We did a dodoro with Higgins and got compensated fairly given he was contracted.

Not much interest in Butler so we get a lowly pick.
We win 2 more flags after Butler leaves we were not in rebuilding phase.
We had George and Rioli as small fwds and MRJ is on the way. Aarts gets games too.
We did a good deal for CJ and Chol compo was okay too.
So, picking up JVR instead of Brown might be more interest from other clubs if he's not best 22 in 3 years

Saved the game on the last line of defence making a brilliant save

Tigers were the home of hardball until the recently including hand breaking their own players rights. A strategy worked like cancer from 1982 - 2016.
Hardball is something good to scream when you are;

anonymous and

have or take no responsibility.
 
I've been on this site since 2004, and I seriously doubt that I've ever seen so much insane nonsense from anyone else than you. This includes opposition supporters.

Mr Magic? More like Mr Magshit. Annoying AF.

I tell you what it was not half the rubbish put out on the field on the weekend in Adelaide by us
 
So we are going hawks style gut the list 8 year re build that may not even work like Carlton has copped

If campaigners are melting about the last few weeks wait until they are reminded what a completely gutted side looks like on field

Carlton have never done a rebuild, that is there problem

A few things about these constant JVR references.

1. Any suggestion JVR will be a superior player to Brown is pure speculation at this stage. Maybe let's wait until at least a season or two in the seniors before anything beyond rudimentary judgment.

2. If we'd taken JVR, there's every chance Sonsie would not have made it to our next pick. The dominos would fallen very differently, and Melbourne themselves might well have grabbed him two picks later, given their main target JVR was gone. Or the club who's player Melbourne selected in the absence of JVR might've. And so on for nine draft picks. And we're all smitten with Tyler, aren't we?

3. Brown would almost certainly have been selected by Sydney the very next pick after ours. There is very little doubt in that - it was widely reported they were super keen. And on the absolutely miniscule chance the Swans had a sudden change of heart in their 5 minute allocation, Geelong would've definitely taken Brown at #24. Now just picture the melts if Brown was progressing well through the ranks at either of the two grand final teams from last year, maybe even played in the GF? Maybe had a flag already? Maybe even toweled us up last Friday night? And we had JVR not having even debuted at Tigerland yet?

Yeah, we might rue the decision. Or we might laud the decision. No point getting too strung out about it yet though.
 
How much are we paying Bolton & Dusty per mark if you are looking at it that way ?
With Adjusted credits.
Probably half too what Hummingbird would cost us with no guarantee of a solid return to us share holders.compared too bluechip shai & Dusty.lol
 
Pick 17 and a future 2nd

We traded pick 17 to Geelong for the pick we used to get Brown and the future 2nd to draft Juddy Clarke in the 2021 draft

The exact trade was:

Higgins + the pick that ended up at 26 in the 2020 draft(Matthew Allison) + Richmond's 2021 fourth round pick(around pick 60 swallowed up in one of the NGA acquisitions Owens or Windhager.)

So, Higgins + about 875 draft points

for

the pick that ended up at 20 in the 2020 draft(Max Holmes) + the pick that ened up at 30 in the 2021 draft.

So 1541 draft points.

So in the actual trade for Higgins we ended up with a surplus of 666 draft points. This is about the value of pick 28.


However there were some other things to consider. We traded pick 20 in the 2020 draft to Geelong for pick 17 in the 2021 draft. This immediately elevated our surplus to 779 points, close to the value of pick 24. Then you also factor in we were trading out of the heavily Covid impacted 2020 guessing game draft and into the more certain 2021 where there was more talent available at our picks, it probably elevates the value we got a bit further to the equivalent value of a pick in the 15-20 range.

But the original trade only with Saints ended up being them gaining Higgins, Allison and a very small amount of points for Windhager, and us gaining Tom Brown and Judson Clarke.

Spot on …. 2-years ago Rankine over the King twins looked like a howler. Looking at the impact Rankine has and the injures being suffered by other top draftees I’d take him #1 or #2 (behind Max King)…. and that includes over Walsh.

Wayyyyy too early to bemoan taking Brown over JVR.

I think you are way under-rating Ben King due to his poor from so far this season off an ACL. Lukosius is a very good player, but he is a square peg player - you have to find the exact right role and right opponent for him. King you don't have to shuffle anything, he just goes straight in as a key forward. He was good enough to average around 2.5 goals + goal assists in his 3rd season before doing his knee, and in a weak team.

King's career to date is a bit inconclusive and even barring the knee he is probably not tracking as well as Tom Lynch to the same point of his career. Lynch is the cream for aerial key forwards though. To me the potential looks to be there with King. He should imporve as this season progresses and next year we can really start to judge him.

Lukosius is showing himself to be a great goal assist exponent. But he is a bit of an uncontested beast at this stage, so is not going to fulfil the sort of key forward role we would normally want.

Interesting pair to track. But at this stage I would back King to be a more seamless fit for us in future years.

Kings a gun just taking a bit to get back to find his touch with a midfield that struggling. Long term structure wise you take king every day of the week

King in his 3rd season was certainly tracking well ahead of a player the calibre of Harold McKay in his 3rd season.

It may surprise some to know Ben King averages 2.07 goals + assists in his career + assists and McKay averages only about 10% more at 2.29. McKay is 2.5 years older than King.
