As bland as Brand Dunkley.

Our defence for yet another year will be severely undermanned. Lobb will fix our ruck issues for a season where we finish out of the 8. I sense a serious rebuild coming in a few years due to list mismanagement.

This.

Did Power do OK? Eh, maybe. A few extra drops helps, but effectively we lose two best 18 players when fit (Dunkley, Hunter), 2 depth players (Cordy, Schache) and only bring in a 32 y.o key defender (it's OK in isolation) and a 30 ruck/forward who has had 1 very good season.

We needed KPD depth, we arguably needed wingers (we're now worse off), and we needed a crumbing small forward (ironically even more now).

Very uninspiring.

Picks 11, 21 & 39 to the draft this year unless swaps prior to the draft.

How much salary are we paying for Hunter?

Who is the big free agent we now have to get in 2023 with all this cash we surely have?

[Bullies]

Would have been interesting had Dunks been aware Hunter was leaving as he was part of the reason Dunks wanted out.

[G-Mo77]

Pathetic. I'm going to bed.

Overall it’s a very uninspiring trade week.

Grundy, Bowes + 7, etc. there were some good deals to be had that we were no where near.

We’ve improved our draft hand which is good - we need a few more high end young players.

Lobster will be a good get for us - Marvel suits him, and he’ll partner well with Timmy.

Jones a risk, but worth it.

Dunkley out hurts, but the writing has been on the wall and we have coverage there.

Hunter, Cordy and Schache were on the outer and no big loss. Hunter was dreadful this year, head not in it.

We still have Bont. And Naughton. And Marra. And Darcy. And Daniel. And Smith. And Dale. And Treloar. Yeah… we’ll be right.

How many minus signs are you allowed to put after Z.
