    Ditto. In essence we practically got 2 second round picks for Dunkley.

    We paid 2 second round picks for Lobb.

    I'm all about the Zaine appreciation as well - he's had a great career - but are we seriously saying he is a player who we were desperate to retain who left?

    Every selection thread in his last season was all "drop Zaine" + "Zaine is hopeless" type stuff...

    The answer to the 'OTHER' (than Dunks) good players we've lost under Bevo is:

    - Stringer.
    - Hunter
    - Lipinski (debatable)
    - Adams (got injured so everyone forgets)
    - Hamling (was covered up in family stuff so all forgiven)
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

    Absolutely awful deal. We continue to give these players away for virtually nothing which in turn hurts our depth, which was once a strength of ours. Macrae and Daniel are apparently no longer needed and will give them away for a bag of chips and pay their salaries. At what point do our list managers come under fire? It's disgraceful.

    Hunter is the one many forget. We have battled to replace him.

    For Dunks we got :

    Pick 21 - 2022 (Charlie Clarke pushed to pick 24)

    Future first (2023) - They were runner up so pick 17 which we used to get pick 5 in pick swap with Gold Coast, who on traded it in a pick swap to North who eventually used it at pick 23 (Ryley Hardemann).

    Future second (2023) - Pick 40 which ended up at the Saints as part of the Coffield trade. Can't work out where it was used.

    Future fourth (2023) - Pick 67 not used.

    We gave :

    Dunks
    Future third (2023) - Used in Gunston trade in pick swaps so landed at Hawks
    Future third (2023) - This is Hunter as we got it from Dees for him.
    Also used in Gunston deal.

    Basically

    Out: Dunkley, Hunter, future third

    In: Clarke, part of Sanders, Coffield

    Stringer debatable - great talent poor output
    Hunter - agree
    Lippa debatable
    Adams - nothing Special
    Hamling - Couldn’t be helped
    Roughead- I didn’t like losing him.
