How did we do?

[Danog]

We're not using the compo pick this year.  We're banking it.

Senior list:

Out:

Cousins
Simmonds
Tambling
Collins
Thomson
McMahon
Hislop
Polo
Nahas

In:

Pick 6
Pick 29
Pick 46
Pick 50
Pick 63
Pick 80
Grigg
Gourdis (upgrade)
PSD #3 pick

Rookies:

Out:

Roberts
Gilligan
Polak

In:

Miller
3 picks

Nahas is contracted.

Any proof that we are not using the Compo Pick?

 

You can delist a contracted player.  You just have to pay them out their remaining salary.  Craig Cameron said on trade week radio that we'd be holding onto our compo pick.

I think CC meant "not trading it" rather than bankin it.
Must use it in this draft as it is very strong.

id use it 2012

The pertinent point in that those duds are worth NOTHING, which means that is all you can expect in exchange for them.

I would Esther keep thursfield than give him away for next to nothing like mckinnly and tarrent.

Hard to trade mcgaune, nahas, polo if no one wants them

5/10 for mine. Nothing to get excited about but nothing to get bang your head about either.

Pros:

* Didn't stuff up lol.

* Kept our picks and gained a end of first round compo pick

* Now have picks 6, compo (~30), mid 30s, plus another two in the 50s.

Cons:

* Weren't able to offload a surplus tall defender.

* Grigg for Collins is a sideways trade for mine.

* Not able to upgrade a midrange pick we have. Not sure if we tried to trade the compo pick back to GC for one of their teen picks.

Sums it up for me.
Really can't rate it until every thing is over after the PSD and we see what we give to get Houli and what we use PSD#2 for.

[MADTIGER2010]

Hard to say. We'll probably delisting another 5-8 players from the senior/rookie lists. Have to see how Grigg turns out. If we delist Hislop, Mcmahon, Polo, Nahas, Roberts, Gilligan, Thomson then we are really dud free. Players such as Thursfield and Mcguane are far from duds which some fools in here make them out to be. Quality defenders who will only improve with another 5kg of bulk

I totally agree, some people on this forum delusional enough to think we would get a 2nd rounder for McGuane or Thursty. Like the Blues expecting that for Thornton or Fisher.

[big tone]

Not to upset with keeping Will, am really glad we tried to shop him around and had a go but... at least with Will we know what we are going to get. A solid defender that gives his all but is a bit light and hates when the footy is in his hands. Still, not the worst.
Hook into the pasta this summer Will and put on that extra weight you need to be able to push the big boys around.

Trade week report card

    * Al Paton
    * From: Herald Sun
    * October 11, 2010

HOW did your club fare from trade week? See every deal here and instant analysis of all 17 teams at the trade table.

RICHMOND

Deal: Adelaide's first round compensation pick (for Nathan Bock) and pick 50 for Richard Tambling. Andrew Collins to Carlton for Shaun Grigg.

No deal: Couldn't get Bachar Houli deal done but will get him in the draft. Will Thursfield wanted out but no interest. Delisted Demon Brad Miller could join as a mature-age rookie.

We say: Not bad. Kept its draft picks and should get a couple of handy midfielders who can run and kick, which its needs. Collins showed a bit this year.
