Biggest mistakes and best decisons of the year

[underdog11]

Have to move on about some of my poor decisions through pre-season and with trading. No better ways to here other peoples.

Biggest mistakes: Trading Dickson to Milera not hall, Getting Robinson in two weeks ago, Trading out Shaw, Trading Ablett to Murphy cost me two trades and points! Choosing Birchall and Shaw over Heppel and Scotland, Goodes over chapman :(. Selwood over Boyd!

Best Decisions: Steele over Cloke, Hargrave over rookie, Clarke over Docherty! Mumford over H-mac (were legimetly considering at the start) Dane Swan! (Despite his injury)

The Worst: Trading Ablett

The best: Steele Over Cloke

Despite all of these howler's i am still ranked 2000th so there is hope :) What are your best and worst decisions of the year?

[disco1992]

The best: I picked Ivan MULLET Maric from the start even though all of my mates ripped into me for it!
The worst: there's 2 getting golby and malceski over hargrave and waters!!im stuck with malceski now!!

How can you say picking Clarke over Doherty is a good decision. It's a given...

[stew42]

Best starting picks: Dfield, Clarke, Hargrave
Worst starting picks: Couch (Why u no play him, Neeld??!!), Hall, S. Shaw
Worst trade: Getting Murphy in just as he has 3 sub-100 scores and injury.
Best trade: Getting Horse in... he is not the next Barlow; Barlow was the first Horse!

[thatguy]

Best starting picks: sidey, pendles over swan, boyd.
Worst starting picks: Hall, mumford
Worst trade: where to start! broughton-birchall, birch goes down. mummy-sandi, sandi goes down. ablett-murph, 3 sub 100 scores and murph goes down! devon smith-christensen, christensen goes down. see a pattern here?!
Best trade: Getting Horse in definitely, jumping on robbo for fyfe, and landing danger before he exploded helped too.
