Ross Lyon isn’t perfect but you’re not seriously comparing him and Matthew Nicks are you? Nicks and Alan Richardson is the more apt comparison. Your club isn’t very good and even worse stands for nothing.

We essentially traded pick 14 and a F3 for Barrass. Think that's pretty fair value for us.
Eagles get some handy picks next year.
Seems like a win win.
Are you suggesting your investments in Sinclair and NWM who are in your top 5 players are a significant reason why you aren't playing finals?
Perryman can play a multitude of roles and will be used through midfield rotations which is his natural position. He has proven to be a more than serviceable versatile player.
At GCS he was the 2nd target, at the Crows he would've been the 3rd target and play the perfect role for him given how he play. So he need Georgiadias to kick on and be a dominate 1st target otherwise he will struggle with Marshall's career at a cross road and I always thought Lord was all hype.

Adelaide are my winners- Neale Bullen, Cumming, Peatling and they still have pick 4. All can boost their weakest areas as well. If they get a gun ready to go midfielder as well at pick 4 they will have a solid rotation through the midfield now.

All 18 clubs did business.
4 clubs brought in players and lost no one. (NM, Fremantle, Haw, Geel).
4 clubs let players go and brought in no one. (Rich, BL, Syd, Ess).
In no particular order I'd say Richmond did very well. Very strong draft hand for this year, which they can also pick trade into next year to spread out the list build. Would be hoping to get 4-5 200 gamers onto the list. Hawthorn also did well. Have little in terms of draft hand but found 2 key pieces that fill areas of weakness, and make them a far better unit in 2025.
Carlton and NM for mine are a watch. Think Haynes has not much footy left, but they also lost little of note. A lot depends on what pick 3 becomes, as well as Camporeale F/S, overall getting pick 3 wasn't as big a steal as is made out, still a good deal but it is 2x R1 and 1 F2 out the door to get it.
North finished bottom 4 and have pick 2 and nothing else before 60. Daniel, Darling and Parker need to provide solid senior experience for it to be a good period given this.
Ditto Adelaide. I'm sure their fans will be expecting finals in 2025 under Nicks but like North have a top pick and nothing before 60 after that. Do Peatling, Cumming and ANB move the needle. I'm not sold they do comparatively to the rest of the comp. 2024 finalists have improved and non finalists like Coll, Fremantle have made more substantial improvements.
Losers would have to be Port Adelaide and West Coast.
Port now have Lukosius and Ratugolea eating up 1.5m of cap space and yet neither probably answer their forward or defensive issues. Folding like a cheap suit on Houston, who had 3 years to run was staggeringly bad business. Overall weaker next year than this one imo.
West Coast not only also folded cheaply on Barrass with multiple years left but also gave up pick 3 very cheaply, traded out valuable draft capital while rebuilding, confusingly also trading in two players 27-28yo, both of which are role players, this is what clubs gearing up to contend do. Confusing business.
Essendon are losers through inactivity, missed finals, have no R1 pick and sat on their hands and did nothing. Not confident their list has enough organic growth to take the next step without offseason trading. Who replaced Stringer's goals..
As for my own club. Have a weak draft hand for this year, will hope to find a gem or two of course. But secured a known talent with 10 years of footy left while preserving next year's draft hand. Pick 17 may be a good player, we've got more certainty with Smith instead. Happy enough overall

WC giving up 3 ain't great, but jesus, getting F1 AND F2 AND F3 for Barrass is a huge win
I see what Hawthorn are doing as fairly risky. No good draft picks this year. Relying on Carlton failing next year. Trading out good picks for a 29yo with injury history. With a few injuries and a tougher draw they could easily finish bottom 4 again imo.

We don’t know what was offered nor do we know what the futures will be. My guess is that they wanted future picks to make a serious play for Chad Warner.
Their trade period in terms of ins and outs is not a loss imo.

I think Crows did very with the draft capital they were prepared to spend. In considering who did well at trade you also have to consider a clubs existing players as well and areas of weakness. All 3 players will walk straight into our best 22 barring injury and we still have pick 4 to spend on a mid in the draft. A definite tick for the Crows.

Collingwood had nothing to offer.
Walked away with the best player in the trade period and a very good 25 year old.
Pies easily.

Won't know the result of this one for a while.
If this doesn't result in another top 4 finish or a premiership then the lack of at attention paid towards rejuvenating the list through the draft isn't going to be viewed favourably.
Take that from a Hawthorn supporter who lived through the 2018 trade period.
