Rating The Trade Period

[bulldogtragic]

Picks 13, 53, 89 (or La Young upgraded)

Bruce:

https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/ft_player_compare?playerStatus1=A&tid1=16&playerStatus2=A&tid2=6&type=A&pid1=3771&pid2=3804&fid1=C&fid2=C

One was Picks 32 & 51. The other is alledegly worth picks 5 & 9.

We have flipped Marcus Adams (32 & 51) into Josh Bruce (32 & 51)


Keath:

Of all key-defenders in 2019, Alex Keath ranked 1st for contested possessions (7), 4th for intercepts (8.3) and 5th for disposals (16.3) per game? On average, only McGovern, Rampe, Davis, Frost and Aliir won more possession from an opposition disposal.

Most Brownlow votes of any key defenders this year despite injury.

Pick 45 and swapping future 2nd/3rd (small points gap if Adelaide do poorly - could be DVI = Pick 63. Small)


Pre: 13, 32, 45, 51, 53, 89
Now: 13, 53, 89 - Keath & Bruce for a mere 32, 45 & 51 - 1 X 2nd, 2 X 3rds (very minor swap next year)


Five list spots: Likely Roberts & Webb delisted. Dickson retained.


Missed Jack Martin. But still holding Pick 13 and $700,000 or more in available salary cap to target free agents next year.


Outrageously good. Factoring in keeping 13 and 53, and the quality ins at CHB and CHF this could be one of our best trade periods in context.

Very solid effort. Very impressed with key targets. No one will replace moz. But moz is coach now. So it's the next best thing. Be nice to have a small zippy forward in draft. Well done boys

Re: Rating The Trade Period

have to be happy with our lot. We got the boys we wanted and held on to our sought after pick 13. It must have been tough and a lot of pressure but the job got done.

Excellent result. Didn't think we could do it without splitting that pick 13. Power silently pulled off a remarkable trade.period. Power: Silent, but deadly.

How does the future pick effect us next season. This was my only concern?

10 on 10

Got who we wanted, didn't lose any required players and still hold pick 13.

Re: Rating The Trade Period

Great result. Didn’t really lose too much at all apart from obviously Boyd, Picko and Morris who were retirements. Feel real good keeping pick 13.

My guesstimate is the points equal to about pick 63.

Like Carlton this year, root for lots of Adelaide losses and narrow the gap. No need for concern.

9.5/10. Identified players that would make us better then went and got 'em.

Could there have been the potential to sneak in on a Papley or Martin? Not sure, but very happy with our lot.

We were nervous but the team came through. Wow two KPPs and another youngster

Re: Rating The Trade Period

Im really excited and think that Sam has delivered in spades, I'm not in the know (but would be interested one to find out) the amount of work that went into these two guys (and others we missed out on) over the course of the year.

I think back 2 years and with Adams, Boyd, Picken we were set. Loved the deals and the people we targeted to fill these gaps that came from left field. I think the last few years have been good to load up with Kids and we certainly have got games into them, now we are set to pounce,

Targets now at 13 will be the best of who's around and then after that we really need some hardness and meanness to complement our skill set.

Merry Christmas Bevo your second premiership on a silver platter!

Re: Rating The Trade Period

It's great to have an off season that looks like letting us say that we didn't lose anyone who made a significant contribution to our performance this year (Picken Boyd and Morris the notable losses but none really played) and we've picked up players who will improve our best 22. It's all positive right now.

Re: Rating The Trade Period

Definitely an A
Didn’t blink at all ,and a smart operator
I think They’re both steals
Keath by starting later probably has a few extra years in his prime
