Confirmed Trades 2020

[The Underdog]

* Jack Higgins deal is done.

St Kilda receives: Higgins, Pick 21 and a future fourth rounder.

Richmond receives: Pick 17 and future 2nd rounder.

Good get for the Saints. He’s best 22 in most teams I reckon.

Sydney trading pick 25 for Melbourne’s 31 + 43

[Axe Man]

* Alex Witherdan is set to become an Eagle. Brisbane Receive Pick 58 and a Future Third Rounder. Eagles Receive Witherdan and Pick 86.

Brisbane apparently picking up some of his wages too. Bargain for the Eagles, can play.

WC have a strong backline.

Great pickup. Always liked him.

If Ben Brown's knee isn't cactus, that is a pretty bad deal for North. Values him at effectively a middling second rounder.

Their fans are seething online.

Imagine forcing out a club favourite and very good player for the draft picks, then getting back like pick 33.

Why would you let him go?

* North Melbourne have got Stephenson and Atu Bosenavulagi and pick 39 from Pies for 26, 33 and 70. So effectively the Kangaroos have turned Ben Brown into Stephenson and Bosenavulagi.

On talent that’s a good deal for the Roos. But they now have to deal with a player who thinks he’s everything and has poor work ethic. Good luck with that when trying to rebuild a team from scratch.

And they haven't got a coach who might be unhappy or happy with the deal. Pot luck.

Collingwood copping it raw on that deal. Their cap must be in deeper water than the Titanic.

He was pick 6 and a rising star.

He was pick 6 and a rising star.

He's over-rated and will be a liability in an under-performing team. He's cream and Norf can't even bake a pie atm.

[Happy Days]

I don't hate this deal for North. They can't attract a big fish and Stephenson for all of his flaws undeniably could still end up an incredible player. Plus their risk exposure of the long term big money deal would be mitigated by what you'd have to assume is a heavily front-ended deal.

Not like they were gonna be good anyway.
