I was hoping we'd get something in addition for trading such a good draft pick, but I guess Ross values the Hawthorn team so much that he'd be keen to get as much intel from Hill as possible! Good to have the brothers united too

Wasn't too keen on Hill tbh but as long as it means he's kicking out D.Pearce and not say Langdon or Tucker then I'm happy enough to get him. Just not sure 23 (as a standalone swap, always had to be involved) is worth it. Now he's here I'll do my best to like him. Sounds like Logue is going top 15 now anyway. Rotham is ranked 30 in Twomey's ranking so you just never know for pick 34.

Anyway Mayne for Hill sounds really good though.
 
Chapeau to Lloyd and Bondy. Feels like the first trade period we've had all our ducks lined up. Can't remember us being this proactive

No doubt we paid overs, but we also got paid overs for Mayne.

There will be potentially very good players at 34 in sight such as Rotham as you point out.
 
Brad Lloyd right on top of his game this trade period, Freo putting a very formidable list together. :thumbsu::rainbow::)
Brad Lloyd is doing what he always does. He is not to blame when we can't trade and no genius when we can. There is one difference. The players want to be in WA.

If you remember RTB said after last year that trading as a WA club you were doing so with one hand tied behind your back and from now on the strategy was to only target WA boys. It limits your options but gives you at leadt some chance of success.
 
Brad is a big get. His delivery is elite and try and tell me that our forward entries were of a high standard in 2016. WE really need him to hit up the leading forwards.

I would replace Danyle with in a heartbeat.
 
Giants have swapped pick 3 for 2 with the lions with some other picks

So I reckon it's understood that McCluggage is 1, McGrath is going 2.

Brisbane may have a crack at Bowes with 3, otherwise someone like Taranto or SPS.

Then GWS get to start pooling picks for their academy players

The Hill brothers, Bennell and Weller delivering the ball into our forward 50...

So while we traded picks with GWS that netted a two-point surplus and McCarthy, Brisbane got comparatively screwed: traded out 3528 points and got back 3301. So Brisbane gave GWS overs to the equivalent of pick 54 for a trade that GWS was desperate for in order to move up to pick 2.

Yep, sure sounds like they've turned it all around at the Lions...

Not about points for the Lions.
They don't have the same amount of academy kids to draft as GWS.

Pick 16 is worth more to them
