Round 19 Collingwood vs Carlton Pre Game

[blue4life]

Henderson is only an average player but he's not a dud, he's well worth his spot on our list and given our complete lack of key position players it would be disastrous to lose a decent one in his mid 20's, there's no way I'd accept anything second rate for him as a trade.
If he wanted out and we could snag a top 10 pick for him then I'd consider it but I don't think Geelong will be offering anything like that.

[blue4life]

Don't get me started on Mick's other pets in Daisy and Jones.... A million a year between them for both and neither worth yesterday's bread.

I doubt that we're paying Jones much at all, Thomas will deliver next season.
If we're bagging Mick for them we might as well give him the credit for swapping Hampson for Docherty eh?

[PassIt2Carrots]

He has far more misses than hits. You go on and on about the poor state of the list, last time I checked it was his list for the last three years.

[Pratty]

Blokes like Walsh and Holman look to have the killer desire Pratty, we need more kids like them.

I agree

The swap of hammer for a pick to get Docherty is one of our better moves. Definitely a tick and he gets credit for that but Thomas was an awful decision and marked the beginning of the end for Mick.

McLean was an awful decision.....until it wasn't.

If Daisy wins our B+F next year. Is it still an awful decision? Top 3? Top 5?

Daisy will need to be in the best handful of players in the league for a couple of years for us to get value for him now. McLean was an awful decision as we could have netted Talia.

[PassIt2Carrots]

Mclean was awful full stop. Only got a game when the team was riddled with injury and cemented his spot as a bottom 6 player. Hardly worth a first rounder. Daisy is Mick's Mclean but much worse as he is the highest paid player at the club and was also Mick and Swann's best mate.

Giving up pick 24 for Warnock was a shocker.

24: Suban
25 Redden
27: Sam Wright
29: Beams
30: Hanneberry
34: Liam Sheils
37: Zac Clarke
38: Broadbent
39: Steven Motlop

I never understood it, with Jacobs and Hampson developing and our out and out want to keep number 1 to draft Kruezer.

Net result...

Had to give up Kennedy to get Judd.
Lost Jacobs due to lack of opportunity
Missed pick 24 which is a pretty good draft.
Lost 750K a year currently in which we decided not to pay Betts more.
