Ok, let's look at a "similar" trade.
Lyons to Suns (age 24) and pick 71 for Suns picks 43 and 67.
Greenwood is much older and uncontracted. How much a better player than Lyons is he? Not heaps if at all imo, although he is more versatile.
As i said, pick 49 didn't seem outrageous or laughable to me.
As for Fanta, he likes it where he is thanks.
"similar trade"
A limited talent player that wasn't wanted and was playing 2nds and attracted minimal interest elsewhere.
Vs a unique player that is wanted and is attracting interest from clubs Australia wide.
Not sure they are similar at all, mate.
