straight swap for schoenmakers?
Would LOL if Hawthorn picked up a pick 1 in Watts, a pick 2 in O'Rourke and a bloke "worth" pick 3 in Frawley in one trade period.
It's funny how the better run clubs often have the most "luck"
Frawley & JO'R to Hawthorn and Christensen to Brisbane seemed to happen pretty painlessly, yet some of the other trades seem to going around and around in circles.
Trade karma!
Teams like dealing with Hawthorn and Geelong.
It sucks to do the right thing sometimes but there is benefit in the long run.
Brisbane may do us a good turn in the future.
I believe that Hawthorn tend to have the most luck in the competition, because clearly they are the best run club in the competition.

We are watching a club get farmed out of the comp...
Personally I would happily give up something like pick 30 and Blair, or Lumumba if we no longer want varcoe or pick 25 if we don't have to give it up for greenwood in order to get watts. We have an abundance of shutdown players who are very capable physically in defense on top of some decent speed. Not sure how I should put this, but we lack classy players in our team? Even after all these mediocre seasons, I still believe watts can turn into a solid high half forward or third tall and really become a valuable component to a team with appropriate structure for wattsJust as I argued with Lindsay Thomas (not on the trade table), and Jeff Garlett (traded), his value to his club is way above what other clubs would like to pay at the trade table. I have no doubt if we traded Garlett 1 or 2 years ago, we as a club would have been looking to gain a couple of 2nd rounders, or 2nd + upgrade of 3rd.
Really, Melbourne would love to get a top 30 pick for him, and almost should, but I've seen nothing in his game that indicates he's flourish at a new club - think that's just a big myth to try and throw even more blame at Melbourne. Watts is soft, no doubt about it, and I don't see how if Bailey/Roos + the assistant coaches + guys like McDonald and Jones can't change it, it's unlikely it's them that's the problem, and likely it is him and only him.
I don't see Melbourne getting market value for him. Unless they just want him out, or a club surprisingly wants to pay market value for him (GC might, Adelaide won't I don't think) he'll stay.

You would have to be insane to do that, he's shown bugger all in 6 years. I swear if he had been drafted at 30 or something rather than number 1 almost no one would want him.I wouldn't rule out Carlton offering Pick 28 or even Pick 19 for Watts.

Oh yeah. they got Frawley for nothing and a pick 2 draft pick for pick 19. It went smoothly because they came out in front.Trade karma!
