We did well to get a couple of guys we really wanted. All it's effectively cost us is Tuohy and next years 2nd. Our spine is shaping up pretty well.

Weits
Marchbank
Cripps
Curnow
McKay

A disgruntled G¡bbs is going to be interesting to watch next year  :-\

He will play it out. I don't see him having an issue with it. He loves the club and wouldn't want us to get lowballed. The diagruntled part is blowing it out of proportion. We will work something else out to keep him happy

yeah im really happy with our acquisitions 8)

Agree Gibbs will be fine. Pretty sure he said early on he will respect his contract.

Please explain this stupid trade: 'With 90 minutes remaining, Hawthorn began to negotiate a future second-round selection from Carlton after giving the Blues picks 48, 66 and 70 in this year's NAB AFL Draft.'

Early 20s pick for that bunch of near useless picks?

id say SOS knows the available talent well enough to know he could secure 3 good additions instead of the 1...

It's not our pick. Our 2nd round pick went to the Cats.

The Giants sent us a pick in the Marchbank deal which we dealt to the Hawks for those picks. So basically the two trades that happened were this

Marchbank, Pickett, future 2nd round pick in
Geelong's first, 45 and 58 out

Then we ended up making this deal

2nd round pick out
48, 66 and 70 in

So we basically moved back to 48 and 66 in the GWS deal.

Marchbank is gonna be a flowering stud, with Weiters back there too we are starting to look solid down back

Just watched the Pickett highlights :o that kid is electric, can see why SOS wanted Cameron, those 2 tearing down either wing :o


Mat0369

Who was a worse 2nd round pick recently? Temay or Skittles?

fanTCfool

Temay still takes the cake for mine  :-\

Pickett could become very, very good.
