Maybe Channel Nien or Ten should televise the trade period live with interactive sessions where fans get to say if it's a good deal or a bad deal or whether we should take it or not.

That sounds like a good idea would rate fairly well I think..........or it could be named "who wants to be traded by a millionaire?"
So live tv. from say, 10 am - 6pm, every day this week, watching nothing, just mooted trades, by journos.... yep, great tv, should rock the ratings. In a word boring. Fox footy has got a program on friday night, where they do this in an hour show...

If only this was available in 1999 when Terry Wallace traded Brett Montgomery, Stephen Powell & our 2nd rd pick for Nathan Eagleton!!!

Great. An hour a week where only subscribers to Pay TV get to see it.
So you would advocate a user pays system where only those that could afford to 'pay to vote' would get a say on who goes where.

Why should fans have a say in who gets traded?
What do you think this is? Big Brother?

But wouldn't opposition fans deliberately vote to jeopardise other clubs?
Any every knows Eddie rigs TV polls.

Turned out to be a bad deal but were many people complaining at the time? Eagleton was expected to be a star

The first thing that came into my mind was that if Eagleton was going to be such a star why was Williams looking at trading him especially since he didn't want to leave? I knew we were going to be ripped off and we were.
