Pick 30 for a 33 year old is a good deal.
When has a club paid more for someone of that age?
When you put it so starkly, suddenly i'm not as opposed. If it was pick 29, i'd be happy. Psychology much!

Gibbs is 31 now. He was traded a couple years ago.
Gibbs was 27 & coming off a top 4 finish in Carlton’s B&F.
No current season stats available
Hypothetically, if we got hold of Picks 7+8 as part of the Dunkley deal, would you guys do
Pick 2 + Pick 28 + future 2nd or 3rd
For
Pick 7 + Pick 8 + Pick 14
Or is McDonald too enticing?

Fair to say Ablett is the exception, not the rule.Ablett was 33 and was basically a 2nd rounder and dropping in another exchange of picks from 19 to 24.
Tend to agree........I get the feel good factor and that he will be 33 in March but based on output a player who is in the top 30 for average disposals for the past 3 years and especially considering the year we had are pretty rare and I would have thought valuable or more valuable than a pick 30 that has in the past been more bust than boom.Higgins for pick 30 is pretty shizen. We don't need to clear him off our list. Geelong do need him to finish off their squad.
Hope it's inaccurate.
I'm hearing that we have some interest in Lachie O'brien from Carlton for a pick in the 30's.
I know he was an early pick, but have no idea what kind of player he is...
Has anyone heard similar?
I get that we don't want to give up Higgins for peanuts, as he is a gun player and a great leader and role model around the club. However, if we were in the Cat's position, would you be willing to give up a late first rounder for a player who would be 33 at the start of next season? Given our current predicament I think 30 for Higgins is a pretty fair deal for both clubs.
I'd give up 20 for Higgins if we thought we were one piece away from a flag. Higgins's ball use over finally giving Constable a game or hoping Cockatoo stays fit? Sign me up. I can live with missing out on Brayden Fiorini or Will Hayward for a flag.I get that we don't want to give up Higgins for peanuts, as he is a gun player and a great leader and role model around the club.

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story boys.
Is this the same organisation that tanked half a season for picks and then asked the afl to step in to help administer the club, lol.Edmunds update on Brown
“Haggling over picks”
Seems to think North want multiple seconds, Dees don’t want to give two.
Fair to say Ablett is the exception, not the rule.
So in the span of 24 hours it's gone from:
- Collingwood have cap problems so Collingwood tell Stephenson to look elsewhere
- North are COMMITTED to trading for Stephenson and now up to Collingwood to decide if they will let him go or not
I was referring to my own mistake that Gibbs was similar age to Higgo when being traded.Umm, which bit wasn't true? Gibbs is 31 now and he's retired. He wasn't 31 when he was traded.
I think CIK was extracting the urine from himselfUmm, which bit wasn't true? Gibbs is 31 now and he's retired. He wasn't 31 when he was traded.
