It is rare that you can say a trade is a win / win but this one I think actually was.

Short term blues got a capt,, a browlow medallist, a leader.
A champion of the game.

Long term Eagles get a fwd who kicked 723 goals, a leader, a premiership player.
A champion of the game.

Both have left their mark on the AFL and will be fondled remembered by the fans and honoured for their contribution to the world's greatest game.
Definitely a win/win there Trigga, both great to watch at their best and JJK turned back the clock yesterday :)
P.S you can edit here with no time limit ;)

should we have a footy talk subsection? Where we can discuss a range of things like who won this trade, and other footy talk not fantasy related? Rather than have it all in one thread. This things can be a good read especially in the off season.

WCE also got pick 3 in the draft which they selected Chris Masten with who ended up playing 215 games for us & is a premiership player 😉

Masten was a much maligned player but he did play a crucial role in our 2018 premiership season playing as a defensive winger which enabled him to use his great strength which was his relentless gut running (won a lot of preseason time trials in his career).

Carlton needed Judd at that time so they would be happy but we did get a champion key fwd which is hard to find & a 215 game premiership player that played a crucial role in the 2018 season.

Judd before he got OP, was the most dynamic/ electrifying player from 2004 till 2007 that I have ever seen play …. the crowd at Subiaco oval were often left shaking their head at his brilliance.

seems to be a done deal with Jackson and Freo Surely the dees will want a tall forward and picks Maybe even Andrew could join his bro NDD
Who would it be though?...Taberner or Lobb, not sure either would improve the Dees much but Lobb could be handy as a Ruck chopout / tall fwd.

Think u are dreaming NDD don't think Bradshaw (either brother) going anywhere. Not sure what will get trade done, picks a couple of first rounders but with that likely to be mid teens won't be enough. Might have to also throw in one of their youngsters amiss or odriscoll. Be interesting to see what gets trade done.

I understand that Lobb wants to move to (the city of) Melbourne anyway. The Dees may not be his preferred club, but otherwise it seems relatively neat. Somewhat assumes that Jackson (or Darcy) can kick more goals from next year onwards though.

My understanding is that the dogs are very keen & are leading the race in getting him currently :-
