    Nothing. If they choose to take the trade to the brink and lose, then why should they be compensated. The only reason Lynch and Lycett and Daulhaus weren't dealt with last year is because all teams knew that if they waited till their final year and the player walked on big enough cash then there would be a better deal than if they traded. Take that away and clubs will trade.

      In the Dahlhaus scenario ... We lose Dahlhaus, what do we gain? How are we compensated?
      Why should they actually get anything?

      If you have a player out of contract and let him go you miss out or you arrange a trade.

        We are compensated by having the same access to free agents from other clubs to fill the spot on our list that Dahl left.
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          Maybe there should be a financial compensation between the 2 clubs, a transfer fee.

            Would anyone part with pick 13 for Mitch Mcgovern ?

              Before round 16, 2017 I would have in a heartbeat. I used to be a big fan. But then in round 16 he dove and got Wood suspended and now he is dead to me.

                    He's on huge money, Port would be happy to get him off their books I reckon.

                      The other surprise is North and Melbourne considering a straight player swap for Tyson and Pruess

                        That is a weird scenario. North have been shedding inside mids because they need class there, Preuss is stuck behind Goldy so he goes to a club with Gawn.

                        This seems a lose/lose for both club and both players.

                          Brisbane and Gold Coast did a pick exchange. Ended up with Brisbane getting pick 32. Could that be used for Adams?

                            That's what they say I reckon.

                              Or Lachie Neale.

                              They do have two picks in the 40s as well if we really are wanting points.

                              Pick 32 - 584 points
                              Pick 41 (412) + 44 (362) = 774 (valued between pick 24 and 25)

                                Maybe Adams and a player? I’m still hoping for McStay.
