Except Tom Campbell finished 3rd in the Liston ahead of him, named BOG x 9 times and averaged 24 touches, 34 hitouts and a goal a game, with one of those BOG's coming against Pittonet in his only game against Box Hill.
Campbell was named BOG against Meese in his only game against Williamstown as well, Meese had his lowest possession and hitout count for the year. Campbell had 22 disposals, 33 hitouts and 8 tackles.
Campbell was on another level this year and was probably robbed of the Liston in reality, North's AFL injury list killed the VFL side and its subsequent poor performance cost him the difference in votes.

Pittonet shits on Phillips from a great height. And I don't particularly rate Pittonet.
Phillips has performed better at AFL level.

Would have thought it would be smarter for Essendon to just go after Pittonet.
Admittedly the price tag of 5, 9 and McDonald-Tipungwuti might be a little steep for Dodoro
Only because he was at Carlton.
Only seen a handful of his games but I think he's goes alright imo is backup till Draper comes in.

Hawks still owe us for Omeara.
85 for Pittonet and Hardwick salary dump will do.

Phillips has performed to Zac Clarke levels at AFL level
I'd have preferred someone like Darcy Cameron or Archie Smith. If only we chased Tom Campbell last year.

No, I’m just disappointed
Don’t tie us with a Dodoro trade.

57 for Phillips
We'd then try flick that for Pittonet but I imagine it would be 48 and 72 for Pittonet and 61

Honestly on his day, Sauce is pretty handy. Consistency always an issue, but you can do worse.

Can take a good grab and kick a long goal. Think he did it at a crucial point against Essendon once. Maybe that's what they're remembering.
Phillips to Essendon, Pittonet to Carlton makes sense for both teams.
Phillips is a solid and under-rated ruck. Good tap ruck, good contested mark, reasonably mobile and a solid tackler, and gets forward and kicks goals. He is capable of being a solid starting ruck, but probably only has a year or two at his peak. Good fit for Essendon - I think he's better than Bellchambers, and certainly helps tide things over until Sam Draper is ready.
For Carlton, there's not much point hanging onto Phillips. He won't start ahead of Kreuzer ever, and in a couple of years when Kreuzer is done, he'll also be winding down. Pittonet is young and a year or two away from his prime, coming from a great development program, and cheap. Based on this year he can be a backup next year then look to take over as Kreuzer fades.
