Oppo Camp Non-Essendon Football Thread XIII

[Haychh]

Traded their first round pick next year for pick 19 (Liam Stocker) and Adelaide's 2019 first rounder.

If you're glass half full it's pick 4 for pick 10 and Liam Stocker. If you're glass half empty it's 1 for 15 and Liam Stocker.

Adelaide just became my 2nd team for 2019

That Sydney pick trade is just trolling the AFL. Classic.

Which is fine, as it was within the rules at the time. But if you want to exploit the already significant advantages you have over virtually every other club, it is a bit rich crying foul if the league moves to put a stop to it.

Wasnt the whole point of live pick trading to enable moves like this?

No the whole point of live pick trading was to add another element of ‘interest’ and ‘excitement’ to get the nuffies fascinated

It's more intended for how it's been used by Carlton last night, and GC & GWS today; trading up the order to get a targeted player.

Swans just made use of an unintended consequence.

presumably based on history they will be banned from trading picks for two seasons despite not actually do anything wrong

One can only hope.

I don’t think they understand anything these days unless it’s explained to them in terms of viewer numbers and sponsorship revenue

Can someone explain to me why North fans are rating their list minimum 5th/6th with a view top 4 should be achieved?

Solid system with their main weakness last year being outside run which they have addressed heavily.
Also have a key forward who could really take advantage of these new rules.

Their best football would challenge most teams, however I'd say their depth is an issue. They arent a basket case though. I'd rate them 9th at worst pushing 6th.

I'm sure I speak for the whole Essendon BF board when I say have a few more drinks and go and start a conversation with them. Just remember to have a few more drinks first. If they try to end the conversation, push on. Bonus points if you respond with "true" more than 5 times.
