Not all clubs can receive hand outs from the AFL like you guys and GCS lol. It was a 1st rounder and McAdams for Petty and I'm not sure were you got the $1M offer from as Petty would have been on more than Dawson lol. The strategy was to offer big contract to high profile player toward the end of list strategy to take it to premiership contender especially if they are RFA as it wouldn't cost any trade capital, Petty isn't a high profile player. We've done an excellent job in doing a complete list rebuild within 5 years (should have played Finals in 2024) with the draft, trading experience players from other clubs and no hand outs from the AFL. This was our biggest list turnover in our history, that's why the AFL wanted to know about our list strategy.I'm incline to trust management decisions of a team that's won two flags. If anything, I'd be questioning the decisions of a list management team that built a list that hasn't won a final in 8 years, and that attempted to give up first round picks and $1mil/year for Harrison Petty.
