I disagree with this analogy. They aren't the cherries. We have had a superabundance of cherries - the best cherries soaked in 5 star cognac. What we've been lacking has been the cake to put them on (though on occasion putting the said cherries on top of Prestia's slice of tiramisu has been delicious). These two are the cake not the cherries on top.
I never said he's a dud etc, just that the commentary go overboard when they see them. I agree they are decent players.

Remember Jack Riewoldt took a pay cut to accommodate T-Launch.
Trent is on far lower pay than he warrants too.
Our champions sacrifice their salaries to accommodate the two star midfielders.
I like the attitude of our club administration too, humble and low-key, not gloating.
We will be in range of a couple of flags over the next five years.

I echo Tiger_Of_Old post. Someone needs to fix the 1 and 4 gap asap.
14 and 22 are fantastic numbers for them. The synergy especially of 22 between Hopper and Caddy is unreal.

‘Good game of bluff’: Doco reveals dark arts of AFL trade period
The management of former GWS midfielder Jacob Hopper advised him of their plan to call the Giants’ bluff and get their man to Richmond in one of the highest-profile moves of this year’s AFL trade period.
The management of former GWS midfielder Jacob Hopper advised him of their plan to call the Giants’ bluff and get their man to Richmond in one of the highest-profile moves of this year’s AFL trade period.
The conversation is revealed in the new season of a documentary that goes behind the scenes of several key deals, including the one that prised the contracted Hopper away from the Giants to Punt Rd and the four-club mega-deal that delivered No.1 pick Jason Horne-Francis to Port Adelaide.
In a scene of Show Me The Money II featuring Hopper, influential player manager Paul Connors and his business partner Robbie D’Orazio, Connors tells the midfielder: “You’re 95 per cent getting traded. We’ve got clubs who want you, we’ve got you who’s in, now we just need the third party and that’s the Giants.”
D’Orazio then explains that the Giants’ general manager of football, Jason McCartney, holds the key.
“This one is a little bit interesting because he is contracted and the player’s the one requesting the trade, rather than the club pushing the player out,” said D’Orazio.
“Jason McCartney and the club holds all the power here.”
Connors adds: “If I put Jase’s hat on, Jase is a really good game of bluff, so I feel like they’d like to start afresh, but if you’re GWS, you’re not telling us that. You’re holding that information close”.
Hopper interjects: “Yeah, I feel like it’s the worst kept secret ever though”.
Connors says the deal could go down to the wire despite the Giants needing to free up salary cap space and wanting to attack the draft under new coach Adam Kingsley.
“Because you’re in contract, we’ve got to make sure they can do the deal. I think you’re in a really lovely situation, and I do think, bottom of my heart, that the Giants will trade you but remember they’re not going to declare that to you,” Connors says. “They are going to play their cards close.”
Hopper was traded to the Tigers with picks 53 and 63 in exchange for Richmond’s future first-round selection and pick No. 31 at this year’s draft.
The 25-year-old, who was the No.7 pick in the 2015 national draft, signed a seven-year deal with his new club, tying him to the Tigers until the end of 2029. He followed former GWS teammate Tim Taranto, who was nabbed by the Tigers on the opening day of the trade period.
The documentary will premiere on Stan, owned by Nine Entertainment Co, which also owns The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald, in February.

As much as we all focus on the clubs, the managers have a huge say in the trading and FA game. Getting the trust and respect of the managers must be a huge part of being a good destination club. I wonder how they view the Pies - effectively breaking contracts and therefore being untrustworthy.

Didn’t mind it but found the agents constantly trying to act like it’s all about them pretty tiresome when the reason we are all watching is being of the players and club dynamics themselves
Making their mark on prime was the better program overall imo but will definitely still check out this new season as well
