Re: The Moving/Rolling Trading & Delisting Thread 2018
2015 is looking like a smelly draft.
Melbourne clearly have a pick of the lot with Oliver at pick no.4, already one of the elite players of the competition.

We got a little too cute with that trade in hindsight. Very glad we nailed the Dunkley pick.
Also interesting that easily the best full-backs in that TAC year were Weitering and Collins, and both have really struggled to develop at senior level. Shows just how good Naughton has been this year.
From memory the club stated it would have still taken Collins with pick 11, so we would have missed on Dunkley.

And recruiters are paid to recruit without needing hindsight. A player with his athletic profile would need a brilliant footy brain to make the grade at AFL level, nothing I saw of Collins suggested he had anything resembling that. Hence it was pretty ordinary recruiting.

My money is on Collingwood snapping Collins up. Still only young and had unfortunate injuries. I wished we had retained him.

Let's first see who we put on the list instead of him....i've got this feeling we will have a big trade period this year

Not sure how Smith & Honeychurch missed the first cut.

If Collingwood did take him as delisted free agent, do we get any compensation?
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works every time!

I know right. They wouldn't have missed if I had anything to do with it.
I get the feeling that Smith is Bevo's darling much like Nathan Brown was Wallace's and Daisy Thomas was Malthouse's.

Ed's Shed.
He gets a few extra dollars from our club marketing allowance too which helps retain him. Get it done, dogs.
