How would the AFL view Brisbane willing to part with the compensation pick that they were given only a couple of weeks ago?

Isn't that meant to be used to regenerate their list?

Not sure what to make of this. Pointless, really.
Nah its fine, because then they can get another priority pick in 2017 because their list is still shit.

How much pressure is going to be on pick 19 and 30 now? At least one of them has to end up better than a top 10 pick the following year and they both absolutely have to make it.

It's arrogant horseshit by everyone in the football dept that'll leave our list stranded even further up plodder creek.

I feel like i've been punched in the stomach.

i am legit gutted over this stupidity.... gutted...
Stinks of trying to save face and save jobs. doesnt work who cares they are long gone and sacked anyway.

And the happy talking of 3 picks in the 30 etc doesnt sound like they have something in the works to trade up either or make 2 into 1 higher pick etc.

Such stupid short sighted trading.

But they have regenerated their list ten fold at our expense, the AFL would be stoked with how much our contribution to that trade benefits 2 of their clubs they'll be propping up for the rest of their existance.

Someone just told me Pick 30 may be used for Greenwood.
