And yet he could only snag 1 Brownlow vote to Cotchin's 18.
I'm guessing you'll send your first rounder and Cotchin over to West Coast for Priddis on Monday then?

Greenwood is a shitload better than Anthony Miles, and I doubt Richmond supporters would entertain losing him for anything less than 25.

Except Miles isn't out of contract and doesn't want to leave. It's also his first year in the AFL system, whereas Greenwood spent 2012 and 2013 in the VFL. 1 good season in 7 years, for a player that you don't want to pay more than $300k a year, is not worth a first rounder.

Wants to leave.

Oh wait you know this because he lives with that Tiggers man Aaron Edwards.

Carry on.

So you're assuming Levi WANTS to leave and you know what we WANT to pay him eh?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Gunston I think this is the worst case scenario for us. It feels very similar.

"He had been awarded the Mark Bickley Award as the club's best young player, but he was stripped of the title after announcing his intention to leave.

He was traded to Hawthorn in a deal that saw three draft picks (pick 24, 46 & 64) given to Adelaide and two picks returned (pick 53 and 71)."

I can see us trading 53, 34 and Levi for 11.
You will not get pick 11 or anything close to that for a player who has had one good year in 7.
