When we're a real chance of finishing stone last, I am loathe to trade out a future first. On the flip side though it means there would be no 'tanking' shenanigans nor attempts to massage results, you can just go balls to the walls if you want. I feel pretty confident in saying that if we didn't have a first rounder this year we were a good chance of snagging a couple of extra wins, for example.

That said, I verrrry much doubt we would even flirt with trading our first.

Adelaide are not giving up pick 1 for Dumont & an unknown draft pick...

Unless of course they’re convinced ( like the rest of the footy world) we will finish stone motherless last and they get to pick up local young gun Horny

Ahern was an example of someone who had potential but didnt put the effort in
He also had repeat lower leg injuries... Don't get me wrong, he looked pretty tubby at times and I suspect he could have done better, but he was also repeatedly behind the rest of the pack in regards to fitness due to his knees and then soft tissue issues.
 
Well no they weren't aware of what they were signing up for. They specifically signed up for something else.

Tho fwiw I pretty much agree with you.
Weren’t aware of what they signed up for?
Its a risk to his welfare, fu** BJ’s cooked for the rest of his life now.. McCartin is silly to risk himself for a rookie pay cheque, go get an apprenticeship dude
Imagine the howls if he got flattened stiff Caro would want us sent to Siberia for Playing him

Is there even a salary cap any more?
It wouldn't surprise me if a lot of their players are getting paid a lot less than average to get players across this trade period. They just resigned a bunch of players to one year deals. Hawks used to do it, I reckon geelong, west coast and collingwood do it too. B and C graders taking a little pay hit to keep the squad together and get crucial players in for success.
