Don't be so melodramatic ...
It's the new AFL ..Player movement and trading will increase even more in coming years.
Team loyalty will mean less and less,as good players will have more options to maximise their earnings and opportunities.
We can't expect to rape and pillage other teams lists without taking the odd hit ourselves.
Who have we raped and pillaged ?.
A couple of money ball picks and a guy who needed a new start after being used in a medical experiment by his team. When we have done some raping and pillaging and won a flag then I will be more philosophical about increased player movement.
Hawthorn on the other hand have been working the system for years, screw them.
Oh and bye the bye the afl players association keep cherry picking bits and pieces from the NFL, funny how they don't mention the length and extent of control clubs have over drafted players. They only ever talk about free agency and profit sharing.
I think they have been given about as much as they are going to get without giving up more themselves, I don't hear them talking about four year contracts, franchise tags, restricted free agency, minimum gauranteed money and the clubs ability to cut you at any time.
Maybe we won't see as much player movement as some people think.
