It sucked balls.

Smart. Melbourne will be minor premiers next year

Weren’t wrong…

Would have to be one of the all-time best trades on our end. Basically 25, 68 and 69 (to Brisbane) for 19 and 33 (2021) (to us). Pure win.

The one thing I will say is that we didn't get the man we wanted at 19 in Max Holmes, and ended up with Bailey Laurie instead.

* this traded turned out as good as it could have

But it could have easily gone pear shaped

Not as bad as it looks. Last years draft was horrible. This year looks a lot stronger top 25-30 picks. We got burnt with Collingwood bidding on Coleman at pick 24 which compounded the trade.

Not much difference between 19 and 25.

The 2021 2nd rounder is a bit of a loss but we're tight for list spots

In a fun bit of trivia the 2020 pick 18 from this trade is the first player from this draft to win a flag

You'd think most years the players taken around that pick are most likely to win a flag

Hahah that's true, but usually they aren't traded in by a 9th placed team.

The only comparable example from the last ten years since the compromised drafts is mature-age Liam Ryan

Superb trade from Melbourne, Brisbane lose out a bit but it isn't like that time Carlton traded away their future 1st for Liam Stocker

Melbourne seem very keen to get a pick around what would’ve been their first rounder this year

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Not as bad as it looks. Last years draft was horrible.

You can't tell that until 5-6 years down the line. Bowey has certainly been a good player right out of the gate.

You mean the time Carlton traded 2019 Pick 4 for Liam Stocker (locked in best 22 player) and 2019 Pick 9?
