Why are people surprised?

I've been saying for months that teams bringing in free agents will always make sure their offer attracts the best compo pick, so they don't have to waste a draft pick.

We should just make a deal with Hawthorn, they could take Garner for $800k a year that will give us pick 3 then next year we will take some free agent off their hands for band 1 comp after they win the spoon so they can get pick 1 and 2.

Only to be expected given the size of the deal.

Assume the Giants will look for more from Geelong to give up Cameron, though.
 
**** it’s hard not to be down about what’s going on. By the looks of it our pick 2 becomes pick 3 and pick 9 probably ends up at pick 20 (being hysterical) when it’s all said and done with academy picks and father sons. After such a tough years it’s depressing that it just keeps getting worse.
 
so our last years pick 8 will turn into pick 15/16 this year, well maybe it wasn't the best trade.

More complicated that that.

Pick 8 went to Fremantle who picked Caleb Serong. Melbourne got picks in return with the highest being Pickett.

We got 3 picks and on traded as well.

So this years pick 9 and I guess Comben, Perez and somehow we also got Essendon's 2020 2nd rounder.

With everyone chewing up acadamy picks we might be in good position to pick up decent talent.. im more shocked at how a coked up crumb after 6 games in 2 years is worth first round compo

Top 10 picks (i.e non-finals teams) should be protected. Any band 1 compensation should come after those picks.
You just know, as soon as a Band 1 calibre player from North wants to leave through FA, the rules will have changed and we'll be screwed over again.
There needs to be protection for clubs that are regenerating for sure. Even the bottom 6 .. the entire competition is a Farce. Its becoming, actually, its been a WWE franchise for years
 
If the crows get pick 2 it might be worth us trading down for multiple picks inside the 10

If Crows get 2 they could take Thilthorpe... it might not affect us.

If Crows take McDonald and Hollands I am pretty happy to go with DGB with pick 3. it is probably hard to split the top 5.

Academy picks don't affect us. If anything academy players going high benefits us later in the draft.
 
It's also really unfair that the destination club doesn't have to give anything up. Should have to give up the amount of draft points that the original team gets.
eg. Williams gets pick 10. Carlton needs to give up that much draft points (like they are bidding on him- maybe add a discount or something)- then at least it doesn't screw over all the other clubs

This is my biggest problem with the Free Agency system, that you get players for nothing other than money. It should impact your draft hand in some way depending on the value of the player.
