If the Thursfield, Schammer, Houli deal went through, it would have been perfect.

Not enough action for me,

Why werent we dealing with Gold Coast like other teams (they realy wanted those future picks) ?
Why do we still have surplus med/tall backs including one that wanted out?

I also think deep throat might of had something down it. I am talking a frog guys, get you mind out of the gutter

ok,

nothing much lost a few picks gained which is good for us. Bit dissapointed that we didnt go harder to get rid of 1 or 2 of thursfield, mcguane, moore.

But on the whole, low key is good for us, draft well and maybe get a decent sort in the psd, (not necessarily houli if there is something better).

Think we may have tried to discard a few of the players mentioned remember we came 15th a lot of players dont have much currency. A 7 for me for the week (hoping to pick up houli now in the psd) as we gained 2 more picks (even if we save the Blinga compo pick for future years) and upgraded a player with the Grigg trade. Also happy to be fairly low key and enjoy our draft picks.

depends on how you judge it I suppose.
for mine they did well taking into account what the club wanted to achieve.

Gained a bigger bodied mature player to help out in the midfield.

Did not give up early picks.

Overall improved our position in the draft.

Also did not accept unders for thursty or give too much for houli

Pass mark from me.

Needed to do more for mine especially get in some more draft picks. Average performance here from the footy department - 5/10 at best.

only got grigg - cost collins .... breakeven trade
tambling to adelaide was a win coz we got the compo pick

but if we want to compete with the GCS 3 or 4 years from now we needed to do more.

2 many dud players are still on our list. lets hope theres a 2nd massive cleanout soon.

Kids Kids and more Kids should be the catchcry over the next 2 drafts.

Got rid of two of the lightest players on the list. Overall I have no problem with this as our team has been too small and weak for last 15 years.

Both would have struggled to get a game ahead of farmer, nason, webberly, Taylor, Edwards, orielly, hicks , king, foley, Morton types

They're not magicians though Ramps. Big ask to expect to receive gold for crap in relation to the duds.

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.

I voted 5.

We just won't know for another couple of years.

Depends on
- How Tambling goes at Adelaide
- How Collins grows at Carlton
- How good Grigg is
- How those draft picks we exchanged for Tambling pan out

In the end it may turn out a ten.

Nahas is contracted.

Any proof that we are not using the Compo Pick?

7 - from me.

Because we did not lose ANY DRAFT PICKS!

Gained two DRAFT PICKS!

Not to sure about Collins, was an "OK" player.

Grigg wanted to come.

Do agree with some people on here.

We should of got Grigg for nothing instead of giving in!

Tambling, good result. Question is do we use our Compo Pick this year?

Could of done better though ...

Thursfield ... wanted a trade, we did not get one.

Ramps is 200% correct on our "DUDS" ... we still have heaps that are worth nothing.

What I like to know Ramps is ... who do you consider a DUD?

I hope we get Houli in the PSD and not in the ND.

Just draft Young Cubs!

The pertinent point in that those duds are worth NOTHING, which means that is all you can expect in exchange for them.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."
