This is what we stuffed up with.

Carlton has a player who is homesick and wants to come home. Carlton stands firm.

Essendon has a player who is homesick and wants to come home. Essendon stands firm.

We have Lever who is "homesick" and wants to come home. So we work hard to get him home.

And Cameron ...
Contracts will do that, though. Particularly 2+ year remaining ones

Why on earth did we even have to send that second, though. That's still a valuable comodity that just adds to the size of the implement used to collectively ream us.
Carlton will finish well below us next season, it's effectively a major pick upgrade, not sure how that's a negative at all.
 
What's the complete trade in terms of 2018 picks if the teams finish in the same ladder position next year?

10, 16, 35, 73

For

Gibbs, 22, 38,77

It’s really 10 + slight down grade on 2017 first to 2018 second. If draft quality is to be believed 22 in 2018 worth more than 16 in 2017

In effect pick 10 for Gibbs straight up or maybe even a bit less than 10
 
dont have a problem with it. weak draft and we need players now. hawthorn at their peak wouldve done the same. we keep 2 firsts for the better draft and a 2nd rounder that should be low

draft picks are maybe's. gibbs is proven. we need proven

Ogilvie really must not rate the 2017 draft. Otherwise I can't imagine this deal would have been done.

Hope Bryce has a massive leg and likes playing off half back then.

Would've rather had Saad.

Saad nominated Essendon and was never going to come here. Can't hang s**t on the club for every player who nominates a different team.

Best it can be in theory is pick 36 downgraded to pick 19. Realistically it is likely going to be 34 upgraded to 28 or something after free agent compensation.

Reamed.
