It is a good get and I had forgotten about that trade.
But it was actually pick to for Weller & pick 42(Charlie Ballard.) Closest in value to pick 4. There were also some different dynamics at play there, with other clubs saying they were shocked Freo got that pick for Weller. Weller was...
...get this right. If you are traded for a high draft pick you are an A grader or if you have a massive contract you are an A grader.
Guess we need to add LachieWeller and Ben McKay to the list.
The lack of logical thinking and constant spam from the usual Richmond nuffy is lowering...
That has only looked horrendous because of how good of player brayshaw has become.
Weller has played 90+ games and kicked 30+ goals for Suns.
If Freo picked Paddy Dow
(76 games 22 goals)who went at pick 3 the suns would be in front and freo the butt of the trade

To be fair although you got way overs for Weller he showed a little more than those 2. And it’s unlikely unless you had another team like Gold Coast throwing picks around that you’d get another deal like that. They are probably a special case given the issues with player retention etc. and the...
It’s extremely unlikely either of those guys would get you a top 10 pick. They’d have to improve extraordinarily this season. As it stands they wouldn’t be moving the needle on a trade for Kozzy. They are also local WA boys.
There's always a player wanting to go to the eastern states and a lot of them are local players.
Maybe do a deal like the LachieWeller deal. Move Matthew Johnson or Neil Erasmus for some outrageous pick.
...miserably at the moment.
The Eagles and Dockers are in different stages of development.
Thru some good and lucky drafting and trading (LachieWeller and numerous players leaving) the Dockers have a list were they can afford to trade in players to improve the list to contend for a flag.Bolton...
Not great news on Flanders - back issue. Graham 2 hamstrings also not encouraging for season.
Monday simulation. Humphrey is killing it. Jeffrey progressed. Lombard could play in OR. Moyle playing forward. Weller battling Jepson for wing spot.

I couldn't be bothered searching them all but you get the picture.
He was only pick 13 and at least he is solid. And he was never talked up like Watts.
GWS had 3 picks before him and got 7 games from them (and another 17 from Jack Steele who was picked later). Has to name another low profile story from that draft...
How about LachieWeller, traded for pick 2??
On a side note, how Vic centric is the AFL?
They go on about how Jack Watts never lived up to pick 1 status for years, but Lockie Weller trade is barely mentioned again. (Basically because it was between Freo and Gold Coast - who they they deem as...

Any club needs to offer a 'godfather' amount to get a player like Buddy. You make out like it disadvantaged Sydney, which is inherently incorrect.
He would've got the same wherever he went.
He also cost them nothing in draft capital, as he was a free agent, even better for them, they kept all...
...other reason that someone may have for wanting to go home. The one and only time this ever worked for my club was when we went after LachieWeller, who spent the last four years of his childhood on the GC and most of his life in Tassie. Mind you, we still had to pay Lachie a lot of money to...

You are not taking into account:
Other options. Eg treloar trade ran risk of other Victorian clubs coming in. There are no other options for Warner. Even baker had freo lurking.
Fact that swans can’t pay him and fit him in cap to what he will get at wce. So “ we can’t trade you Chad …and now...
...is closer to Danger than we thought.
And I haven't even gone past 2015 there, so we got some all timers to come. Bryce Gibbs, LachieWeller, Jared Polec, Jesse Hogan, Dylan Shiel, Dayne Beams, Tim Kelly, etc.
I think just about the only thing we can be certain about if a Chad Warner trade...
