Did you not read what I said? I've already said it about 5 times. They clearly set out to screw us over. And you think it would be wise to do business with those people again? That's the funniest thing I've read in a while.
Added to the fact we already have 9 former GWS players on our list, I don't want any more. It's not like Shiel or Patton will be leaving them for us anyway. Maybe if someone of that quality wanted to come to us then we'd have to consider it but that's not going to happen.
There are only 17 clubs we can deal with...how long do you want us to hold this grudge, and what happens when we've written off 90% of our possible trade partners?
They tried to screw us, according to you, but if you were running things over there and one club kept coming back year on year asking for bargains, at some point you're going to put your foot down and say "time for one of these trades to benefit us instead". They wanted pick 5, and I'm not sure why that's such a big crime - every club would want a top 5 pick. We'd probably have gotten more players for it, but it would appear we went into this trade period with the intention of keeping our first pick, and as such used other trades to generate picks we could on-trade to GWS.
GWS worked to try and get Pick 5 from us, but we held our ground and didn't give it up. That's hardly grounds to burn down the embassy.
