This reads absolutely diabolical...
1. Trade Period fails:
In 6 years the only player that we have traded in that is in our best 22 was Ivan Maric. No picks in the top 30 were brought in. We've never traded well. The 1993 trade period involving Gale and Broderick is about the only trade I can think of where we actually won out of. Ivan Maric trade excused.
2. Draft selections:
Nothing new here.
Lennon, Conca, seem poor selections.
C.Ellis unknown. B.Ellis awfully inconsistent.
Vlastuin maybe a tick at this stage.
Add these to the Frawlet/Wallace diabolical era of Tambling, JON and Fiora trades.
3. Free Agency:
Since the beginning we have only brought in Chaplin as a free agent, who has been able to lock down a best 22 spot.
3 Pillars of List Management, neither one would result in a positive 6 year period when compared with other clubs...
If the 6 leading players at the club or any supporters want to know why the list is a shambles. This is why. Oh and we have a donkey of a coach who believes the list is best ever.
-
Taylor Hunt was also a Free Agent
-
Chris Knights?
-
Both failures who struggled severely to hold best 22 spots. Knights through injury and Hunt only until last this year played consistent games.
Couldn't possibly suggest either of those free agents have been positive. Edited original post.
-
Chris Knights?
Yep, you're right stuff, Knights as well
-
Moore?
-
Moore and Hunt (I believe) were delisted free agents. Barely count. May as well be in the PSD of old which has become almost defunct.

All quality players though regardless..... not
-
Yarran if he ever plays, unlikely as it is, would be best 22.
-
Add to that giving up pick 6 on player not worth it.Burned by Yarran and Hammmer deals now again.
-
And they try to trade number one picks away.
-
Lmfa how often has this type of thing been debated. Nothing new here only the depth of ineptness changes.

You'd hope so
-
I see no issue with our recruiting,Development or trading. Nothing to see here :shh
-
We don't seem to be linked to, or draft many key fwds / backs
Apart from ones with depression and or we delist after they kick most goals in Vfl
-
Yarren. Pick 19
Prestia. Pick 6
Damien's cream is expensive
-
You forgot the biggest coup: Hamspud - Pick 32

Docherty? So says my brother
Hurts even more

Why haven't we looked to trade up this year? We have 3 lower picks swap 2 for a 2nd rounder. Do the new rules make this to hard now?

If anything it should be easier due to academy picks
