Traded Zach Tuohy [traded to Geelong with 2017 2nd rd pk for Smedts, 2017 1st rd pk and pick 63]

[Righteo]

Wait is this a trade where both clubs lose?

At least it's fair then?

 

[kreuze_missile]

You guys took him at #15 with your 1st pick in 2010 which he competed to get into a Flag winning side and then he was struck down with injury.

In 2010 Dale Thomas was a good footballer too...

So i gather the 2 in 4 rule has now been binned and will now pave the way for top teams to just throw 1st rounders away year after year to land young guns unless Geelong have been told that have to trade back into the 2017 1st round next year, if not then pandora's box just got opened.

Yeah seems ridiculous for the AFL to make a rule and then dump it at literally the first opportunity it can

I think we had to get AFL clarification, but with the rumours surrounding Josh Caddy, maybe we are expecting to offload him for a 1st round pick in this years draft?

Smedts is a crab, we have been reamed here. The only way to save it is if Geelong finish last.

Rather a first round pick than crab picks in the late 30's early 40's.

Any Cats supporters think that our future 2nd could be used to help lure Deledio??

I thought Tigers had stopped talks with Cats

I thought Lyons requesting trade to Suns would boost chances of Gibbs being traded sooner. More currency each teams hold obviously helps.

Tuohy is uncontracted, we're lucky to get anything at all.

 

[MisterMarcus]

WTF are Geelong thinking giving up a 1st rounder for this guy.

We're getting Carlton's second back. It's like an 8-10 pick downgrade

 

[Canada]

I think Blues may have just snared pick 6. Selwood and Dangers backs must be mighty sore from 2016. Surely they are in free fall.

 

[Gavin Excell]

If both clubs supporters think its a s**t trade does this make it fair?

That's the scary part is not knowing where each team will finish

Sure a future first round sounds great but I still think Cats will play finals so scrap a top 10 pick out of the equation

a future second round pick traded out sounds ok but I still see Blues finishing bottom 4

Two first round picks in 2017 is not bad could have three first round picks in 2017 by end of tomorrow... SOS list management is for the future

May end up with two first round picks in 2016 and three first round picks in 2017

2018 Ben Silvagni and Bontampelli

It depends
Where do Blues and Cats finish next year?

Ben is 2018 draft isn't he?

 

[gillo94]

I will miss Zach

He improved every year he was at Blues. Cats will have a handy goal sneak kicking them outside 50

 

[Lethality]

Smedts could be a win if Carlton play him in the forward line. Similar to how Everitt has been effective for them.

 

[pinot]

Ben should be playing TAC next year as a bottom ager he is already 196 cm!

Seems to be that Lids to GWS for a 1st rounder with that going to you for Caddy to us, interesting final trade day tomorrow to say the least.

Ben apparently is better than brother Jack and Tom has had positive reviews. Exiting times ahead

Ben might be future top 10 pick for Blues

At best its a 8 pick upgrade in next year's draft.. EXCEPT THAT WE GONNA WIN THE FLAG AND TOTALLY REAM THE HANDBAGS IN THE PROCESS

Really? This is standard MO for the politbu.. sorry, AFL.

Everitt was absolute trash this year. Complete space-cadet.

 

[pinot]

Anyway I think next years ladder order will be

GWS
Bulldogs
West Coast
Sydney
Melbourne
Cats
St Kilda
Adelaide
