Clubs clearly haven't learned a thing.
First Grundy and apparently now Clayton Oliver.
I guess the Bulldogs will be pushing Naughton out next year.
I wonder if the AFL steps in and puts a limit on the number of years you can offer a player.

8 years is ridiculous
With a new team coming in so they want to secure players long term and also having long contracts gives the club more power over the player in a potential trade should the player request one

We thought the comp was tough this year… next year everyone’s levelling up except for tigers whose going backwards one would think

Also Freo haven’t been linked to much yet. So depends if 2022 or 2023 is more representative of their list.
But yeah, lot of mostly depth players being traded around and linked to clubs. Who knows, a few clubs might get a boost from that. Certainly a lot of clubs trying to make astute, low risk deals so far.

Lachie Schultz potentially leaving freo gives me hope we have somethjng big up our sleeve.
Huge loss for them if he leaves. To Collingwood of all teams

I’m gonna say it, freo are worse at retention than us and their worst trades ever are worse than us
i love sh**ting on Freo as much as the next Suns supporter, but Schultz’s “personal reasons” must be pretty bad for him to need to go back to Melbourne but only to play for Collingwood and no other VIC club. 
for reference, players suns have traded since 2017:
saad
matera
ablett
scrimshaw
may
kolodjashnij
hall
ah chee
wright
brodie
corbett
rankine
bowes
Question is how many we wanted to keep. 4?

Nothing compare to GWS. But success is measure by playing finals not at retention . Fremantle and GWS still taste finals action last year and this year.

Oliver Holland only get rated highly because of his brother Elijah in last year draft ( any clue ) ?Why does it feel like Peel is back all of a sudden
yeah i'd have said at the time of the trade 4 would have made our team better if we kept them.
could probably argue the talent that left freo is better than the ones that left the suns (ignoring GAJ haha)
Everytime I see KK’s name.
Makes me sad.
He was a bonafid star in the making.
Damn head knocks.

Slow start for Richmond by conceding the first five goals to the Dees but have kicked the last three to make it a respectable score at quarter time. Noah Balta appears to be the danger man for Richmond now that he's playing forward and he's doing a pretty good job against Steven May in this game. Koschitzke is going alright too. Looks like our tall defenders are going to have a big say in whether we win in opening round.

Yep and Burgess likely to take the spot against his old club.
