All other trade talk

[one-eyed]

Confirmed:

Tarrant and pick 44 for Collingwood's picks 43 and 55.


Cam Richardson from Gold Coast to North Melbourne for pick 35

Tarrant and pick 44 for Collingwood's picks 43 and 55.

Is pick 43 a compo pick otherwise why swap to move up one spot in the draft?  ???

The Pies get Tarrant at bargain basement price for a late pick without needing to cough up anything decent. Hmmm so Tarrant has the same (RFC) or a whole round less (Ess) trade value than Houli  .

Simon Phillips + pick 35 to Port for their compo pick that the Power got for krakouer.

Gold Coast just producing draft picks out of thin air so they can then ontrade them to gain back the compo picks. It's a farce.

2pm has gone. All done and dusted it seems.

Collingwood's compo pick for Fraser going west to the Eagles. Pies get pick 45.

Cats traded their mid first round compo pick to the Gold Coast for pick 15 in this year's draft.

unreal stuff with those compo picks...GC is ridiculously OP.

scott clayton just ripped 16 other recruiting managers. clayton head and shoulders above everyone else in terms of using the system and winning what he wanted. if we had a window 3 or 4 years down the track, Id suggest that the GCS will be shutting us out. Theres no way any club can compete with the youngsters theyll collect over the next 5 years.

GC have owned the trade period. The AFL gifted them 9 first rounders this draft plus all the other concessions and now they've loaded up on picks for future drafts as well.

and they just showed GWS how to do it right. So we can look forward to getting pumped next year and the competition can look forward to a barren 20 odd years with these two super powers trashing all comers lol.

Geez people going a bit overboard with thinking the GC are going to pick stars with 3 - 4 extra picks in the 20's, 30's over the next 5 years plus picks 50 +

Take a chill pill.

Good result, we have 5 picks in the top 50, have acquired Grigg and will get Houli for free.

Loss of Tambling & Collins negligible.

when your 15th you need to do more than that to improve IMHO. We had to do more but didnt or just couldnt because we're carrying to many dud players who arent worth anything.

Remember those compo picks GC traded back for will be higher picks when they finally use them. They now have a mid first rounder plus a couple of end of first rounders up their sleeve to use 2012-14. So effectively picks 10, 19 and 20 in the bank.

The one small positive about GC having hold of more compo picks is our compo pick, 2nd round and later picks won't be pushed as far back in the draft.
