For the people ranting about West Coast - have you seen the updated trade from Twomey? They gave 16, 22 and 23 for 12 and Starcevich. Their fans are melting and for good reason

The current updated version is bad for us cos we've thrown 33 in, but I'm waiting to see confirmation as to what's actually been agreed

I wouldn't give up pick 13 for Starcevich
 
There's still a chance the AFL will come in to save us from ourselves - they won't tick the trade off until tomorrow I see.

It's like when your bank's security systems detect that you just transferred your life savings to a scammer, and they close your account before it happens

Im trying to find ways for people to understand what they have supposedly done and why its important that trade is missing something.

The club appears to have given away 33 to WC for free. Like, people need to grasp that trade should not be waived away.
 
This isn’t rocket science. We probably rate McVee highly, and post season rightly identified the type of player he is as a need, to, you know, try to win a flag or something.

We may also not rate/need the players who will be around at pick 12.

Nobody here has enough information to make informed decisions on this, honestly embarrassing reactions.

The reality is Walls and co have done a fantastic job of building a great list, through both drafts and trades - have some faith.
May as well close the forum if we can’t criticize the club for doing a poor job. The constant glazing is embarrassing.

(I don’t really care too much either way, but it’s objectively a pretty poor trade for us)
 
So we currently have 19 and 46.
Will be interesting to see where we stand by next Wednesday.

Mate I’m not, im not mad at us giving 23 for Mcvee at all. I’m ****ing mad that we give up 12 and 33 for 19 an 23 like wtf is that

Pick 33 contains potassium benzoate

As if the AFL would step in to save us from ourselves

The majority of people aren't upset at paying 23 for McVee (it's not great but it is what it is).

It's more that this trade makes us as the 3rd club seem like we've been done a favour in getting that pick 23. Moving down AND losing points in the same trade as the 3rd club (which usually gets a "bonus" for unlocking the trade) is fairly gross.

Of course the nerds on reddit have their heads up their asses and have no problem with both trades. They’re throwing walls a party with fairy bread when he gets back
 
23 for McVee
How does that compare to the Jordan Clark trade? (that we clearly won) And factoring in that this is a supposedly weak draft.

I feel like the melts are a touch premature at this stage. Let's see who goes where, and how they perform before we start saying that the club is doing a poor job.
You new here?

It’s still nonsense - points are irrelevant, they don’t consider needs or how we we rate the draft, nor whatever else we have planned.

And it isn’t a bonus to unlock a trade - there was something we valued we got out of it, we weren’t doing anyone a favour.
