Autopsy Loved, Hated, Learnt - 2017 Trade Period Edition

[Augustine]

Loved: Gibson given a lifeline. If ever a player has fought to carve out a career it’s him. More talented players should look at his work ethic.

Hated: “Homesick” line. It’s getting annoying now.

Learnt: SOS is a clever dude.

 

[carnthedons]

Loved: players nominating my club and disco getting s**t done

Hated: stalling from the dogs and the lack of elite inside midfielders available

Learnt: surely adelaide take over our mantle as difficult to deal with

 

[doona]

Loved: The Swans getting a future 2nd round pick for a rookie.

Hated: The length of the trade period.

Learnt: They should just fold the GC Suns now.

 

[JohnZ]

Learnt: They should just fold the GC Suns now.

Just curious as to why?

 

[sportsmaniac89]

Loved: Pick 2 coming in (Thank you Gold Coast)

Hated: Weller's "Gold Coast have put a great deal on the table and Freo would be pretty silly not to accept it." Since when does a 21 yr old get to lecture the recruiting department. Pick 2 bitch.

Learnt: Lachie Weller's manager is an absolute parasite of a human being.

Enjoyed: Adelaide giving up two first rounders and a second rounder for Gibbs.

 

[Xenthor]

Loved: Lobbe (who used to be considered one of the very best rucks in the AFL) was traded for a pick in the 90s

 

[Aramis]

Learnt: Gold Coast and North Melbourne in a side by side battle to get to Tasmania first....

 

[thecatattack]

Loved: YABLETT and GCS getting reamed by Fremantle

And Carlton are paying his 500k PA salary.

If we assume 2018 has the same finishing positions as 2017

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Hated - Trading a future 2nd round pick for Sam Murray.

WTF.

 

[BBC1967]

Collingwood are adopting Richmond model -reappoint Coach - conduct a review - do nothing in trade. In my opinion Richmond have four A graders, the Pies don't! I think as a result they will finish bottom four in 2018.

 

[Milanista28]

Italians trade best!!

And Carlton are paying his 500k PA salary.

Doesn't matter, we needed to fill up our cap anyway. Still a free hit.

I learned that Im very confused about whether I hated or loved the Lions trade period...

Also Adelaide have issues trading out contracted best 22 players but no qualms about trading them in. Funny how that works.

 

[Ricky Vaughn]

Loved - tigers getting cats 3rd rounder in 2018 for our 3rd rounder in 2017! Unless the cats win the flag next year we win that!! Hahaha suckers!!

I'm a little glad I get to be the first person to point this out.

You have it wrong, we're getting your 2018 third rounder.

Other way around.

Gibbs still managed more seasons at Carlton then Lever & Cameron did combined at the Crows

 

[davis_756]

And Carlton are paying his 500k PA salary.

If he is contracted for 2 years on that money, we will pay him 850K this year just to get to minimum cap spend

 

[Bobmonkey]

Gotta fill the TPP hole left by Gibbs.

 

[JVseven]

Fair enough.

Makes sense.

Haha yeah just realised this, reported it the other way round when it went through. My post was said in jest, don’t think there is a big difference either way.
