Izzy was good for team morale and he left a lasting impression. His value cannot be understated. Plus 32 hasn't played a XV game yet so it was no loss!

I need to go back a.d che l but I now think it was 33, which got me brad hill.
Why am I included? I wasn't even a coach at the time. ::)

I reckon this could still pay off in the long term.
What is the difference between best trades, and worst trades?

Wrong year. Hill was in the 2011 draft, I traded pick 30 in the 2012 draft - Jed Anderson

Why not just go down to the supermarket and buy a bag of spuds and then delist Harvey and Merrett.
At least then you can eat some tasty, tasty mash while your team does down the toilet.
I prefer not to look at anything that happened before we took over...

Just hope that Mitch Robinson doesn't have a full on break out season and Dempster retires early ;) Otherwise it'll be our trade next year haha.

Meow wins both the best and worst trade awards interesting.
also I was on the other side of the worst trade
does that give me the best trade ;)
the Lewis trade is way worse and would be hurting the team way more then just losing pick 32
