Well, looks like we did well with this trade...
Sorry for the bloke, looks like a ruptured Achilles 100%.
Will be a long road back and he was playing mediocre to begin with.
I would say we didn't lost but certainly didn't win either. Both picks im pretty sure never used by us?
Looked harsh so hopefully he gets back.
Have to start by saying i THINK we at one stage had picks 9,17, 28,29, 38,42,47. I was more than happy to do nothing more other than use those picks. I think we ended up doing the following.
NM got CC-J #42, #47, and our future 4th.
We got Tarrant, #40 and NM FUTURE 2ND. we traded #40 to collingwood along with pick 38 chol compo and a future 3rd, for pick 27.
NM finished 18th in 22 so the future 2nd was first pick in the second round which was probably the pick 19 that we gave to GWS as part of the Taranto deal.
I reckon we clearly won that trade regardless of mistakes in the summation..
Personally i was hoping we would hang onto 38 and 40 along with the two 2nd rounders we had. make bids on StKilda,s acadamy kids.
If i have it wrong i apologise but if we had kept our picks instead of trading up we would have had 9, 17, 28 29, 38, 40, plus Tarrant and im sure there was another pick available there somewhere.
If we had done nothing at all we would have had i think 9,17, 28,29, 38, 42, 47.
Its worth contemplating what we may have done with those picks in those scenario's
