An oft-derided poster on the Adelaide board was saying earlier the potential pick swap with GWS also involves Cows future 2nd going back the other way, which in all likelihood if true would result in ~6 pick upgrade instead of an additional first.

Sure, but the players who are going to be borderline best 22 next year will still play games, and they're going to be the future replacements for Murphy and Curnow.

Again, some players will be traded, but it's not going to be this year when they're still required and have low trade value.
Yep, but I didn’t say they would be traded this year.
Doesn’t matter if it’s now or 5 yrs down the track, posters will still loose their shit when a young gun Isco mentioned in a trade.
Flags are what I care about most, improving our list to achieve this is the ultimate goal.

Forget the statue, I propose renaming IKON Park the Stephen Silvagni Itallian Stadium Coloseuum !!

Goodness, if this comes to fruition, as it's expected to, I would love to hear/read the responses' of each of the journos who were critical of it when it first went down.

When I was a kid I played soccer a bit, amongst a bunch of other sports, and was a Chelsea fan.

Once the oil money came in and then basically bought a whole new team and started swapping players like they were trading cards, I really lost interest. They won a few more titles, but when you can't recognise half the team any given week it just loses its appeal.

Premierships are the aim, but the club and the players that make it up are what keep me invested.

Yes we'll lose a few either way, it's unavoidable, but there has to be some loyalty and continuity otherwise it will turn into the EPL or even NBA where nowadays I only follow players, not teams.

Ok, that makes sense. But its speculative; there will likely be numerous Vic clubs understandably trying to spoil that outcome. Makes me appreciate the work SOS has done in shoring up our Tall talent first .

Worked well in that the drafts at that time were great for talls.
 
Unless we are trading Weitering, Walsh, Curnow or McKay than most of our young players aren’t going to net us much so it is abit of a case of worth more to us then they are in a trade imo.
And we are expecting big improvements? With that in mind, I don't understand effectively trading out of the draft for Martin and Papley, if it were to come to that.
