Whatever score you give them, 2 should be added on for the due diligence of the medical staff in preventing a major catastrophe!!   :bow

I don't believe we should trade for the sake of saying we made a trade. So that we didn't do anything isn't the end of the world.

I have no issue with them not bringing blokes in.

However, I am disappointed that we appear to have not tried to improve our draft position

I find it disappointing that we again seem to have refused to even consider trading any of our better players. Eg to hear on SEN that Vickery was "off limits" TBBH I found staggering. who many others were there that the same logic was applied?

Let's hope we start our trade period for 2016 over this summer.
RFC officials need to be heading over to Adelaide in the coming months to get Dangerfield to sign up for 2016.
 If they miss him then they go after the next gun free agent. Then head up to Sydney and get a verbal agreement from one of J.Cameron , Treloar , Hoskin-Elliot or Shiel.
 Get proactive and bloody well get it done !

 That's the only way I'll forgive them for the Hampson stuff up and the inactivity of this year.

stuffen awful. 0.

Where was plan B after Trengove? Were we prepared? If not can we think on the move?

Either recruitment staff lack the skills to mediate and seal a deal or we are so philosophically incompetent that we believe we don't need to address our list weaknesses.

Whilst I'm ranting, it almost looks like Freo, Rich and WC put up the Rance and Conca deals as PR exercises to look like we were involved.

And minus 2 that there was no tangible plan B if the cripple did fail his medical.

Geez Geez. Who have we got working down there?

I'm with you mostly. There wasn't much on offer to get excited about.
I think we should've had some sort of a go at Greenwood and the noises Richardson made about that deal were pretty baffling. ' If he leaves North we'll look at it '.. and.. ' we won't consider Grigg as part of the deal '
I just hope we've already got our FA targets as well as our uncontracted and contracted player targets for 2016 and start our process asap of getting them to the club. Times are a changin'. Get in early and go hard.
