Its a shame we never got to see him with the way we play now (not the bombing shit on the weekend, the other games where we linked up with handball, moved the ball with pace and ht up leads), think he could have been really good for us.

Was actually excited when we got him, cushioned the blow somewhat of losing Nibs - Had no idea about his injury history.

The McAdam pickup never made any sense. Not Tim lambs finest moment.

I wish him all the best in retirement.

It made total sense.

We were doing the right thing by a much loved premiership player by getting him home for family support, dealt with the club we needed to and brought in the type of player we desperately needed at the time - An x-factor, goal kicking small forward. Their hands were tied somewhat and did the best that was possible. The issue was they rolled the dice with the injury history and it didn't pay off.

Iirc McAdam was recruited the year before ANB left? The only real link is we essentially got back the pick we gave up for McAdam the following year for ANB to go to the Crom.

McAdam came in a year before. Was the deal where we held Petty. Traded a future second which Adelaide gave us back the following year for ANB.

Yeah you're both 100% right, my bad. I got it mixed up given it was the pick we got for Nibs that we gave for McAdam.

Take out the Nibs swap bit then, but still stand by it making sense from a needs perspective, just ended up being one where the house won on the odds.

Crazy people think us giving up a 2nd rounder, at least a few hundred grand and a list spot for 3 years for a bloke who played like 2 games for us was a good decision but here you have it.

That said anyone got any clues who we might take tomorrow? 3 picks so we must rate a fair few.

Not sure who we take but I wanna say the Mid season draft is one of the few things they AFL have gotten right in the last 20 years.

Three picks tomorrow is three more players that can help fast track the King era list build.

Agree, good to turn over the list.

I think we target
1. Inside mid accumulator with good skills and speed
2. Mid sized crafty forward
3. KPD
