If we can come out of the draft with Petracca, Cockatoo/Ahern, McKenzie and Miller/Daniel I'll be content. Not thrilled, but content

Why not Joffaboy?

I'd prefer Weller & Laverde over Petrecca IMO.

Hmm, a bit meh considering all the hype... considering I would of done 1, 21, 22 for 4, 6, 7, I would of thought that would be fair. Were we ever offered 2+3 for 1 from Melb?

All good, pick petracca I guess....

Deadline has passed....

Hugely disappointed....

Teams around us - GWS, Melbourne, Brisbane, all made huge gains in their picks and their list - and we've gone backwards.

Not saying we didn't have a crack, just poor execution in the end.

What did you expect? We have NO idea. Look at the past ten years of trading!

I'm not disappointed at all.
We have the best pick in a draft.
Will get membry in the PSD
And signed all our youth to long term deals a month ago.

f*** me what's not to be happy about?
We now get to pick the best kid in the draft that currently suits our needs.

You beauty.

All credit for getting us into a position to do something amazing.
Things like that can't work every time.

But it didn't work this time.
And Stanley is, on balance, a loss.

So: Fail.

Need an update from Jaxons. Were we close to dealing?


In Springfield, they're eating the dogs. The people that came in, they're eating the cats. They’re eating – they are eating the pets of the people that live there.

Well chances are high that we'll end up with Pick 1 in 2015 and get to go through all this again next year :shock:

You should all be thrilled we have a superstar joining our club in Petracca.
Had to be an exceptional offer to give him up.
No improved offers came in today.
Be happy we will get 4 young guns in and Membrey.

It's kind of like a stunt man has been telling every one he's doing a huge stunt then jumps down off the curb on his BMX. We were waiting for huge and we got little.

It super anti climactic. We were all drunk on gambling away our number one pick for a ridiculous deal. It's like I went to the casino psyched up to put the house on red and they chucked me out before I could put the bet on. I've still got the house but I'm still dreaming about the island I was going to buy.

We're 'stuck' with the Petracca, Stanley is a superstar who won the gf sprint, and pick 21 will definitely be a dud.

They spent so long convincing us he was only average so we didn't mind trading away that pick he seems well....average. Apparently he's no better than anyone else in the top 10. And he is a Collingwood supporter. How long until we can trade him?
