Remember Pickering is representing the Talias and has to do what he can to make sure his clients are seen in a positive light. If he has to throw others under the bus to do it, he'll do it - he has no responsibility to the club.

They offered pick 2 straight up? Not bad for a rookie! I wonder how much the club considered that? Must have been tempting..

What would it take ot get Dangerfield, crows have said they are considering trading with others if Geelong doesn't offer what they want.
I know i'll get shot down but he is not close to the top of my list for offseason needs. Our mid is already stacked, so he would likely play fwd more so, and would expect at least 700k a year. IF we bring in Carlisle, then thats another 600k ish. Really can't imagine we can afford both and if i had to choose, we need Carlisle more on the field than Danger.

If I recall correctly, we were looking for ways to upgrade from pick 6 and they requested Dahl + pick 6 for their pick 2. Wasn't a straight swap. Otherwise I'd say it would have been given serious consideration.

I wouldn't have traded Dalhaus for pick one last year.

Dalhaus is the type of player you hope your pick 1 turns into.

I'm not saying I would have either. I'm just saying that if Melb had offered pick 2 for Dahlhaus, it would have been a bigger story. As I remember, they requested Dahl for a four pick upgrade and we shot it down immediately because it was a laughable proposal.
