The length of this add break suggests it isn't breaking news... 

There's more ads than actual content.

Can't be that exciting or they would've said before the break?

Garland likely to retire.

Col Garland may be retiring. Must have another trade brewing?

I think West Coast loses out in that trade. Ah Chee is basically nothing so I wouldn't trade 29 and 31 for 13. 

It doesn't look great for them at first blush but:

The AFL article mentions his girlfriend as a factor. Given that he’s only 21 and making career decisions around a girlfriend it may we’ll be that he’s a lunatic.

This was mentioned with lever too, just adds some weight to their excuses

If true, will be a sad end for another faithful servant of the MFC.  Struggled to get a game prior to the terrible ACL.  Wish him all the best for the future...

This whole trade period is the worst and most boring in history, not even any hints from any clubs, a load of [censored] really.

I'm a believer that the points system overrates late picks to help the academy clubs. A good pick 13 is worth those picks easily.

If you've got 10 good names on your draft board you make that deal. Shame it can't be done on draft night.

The depth of the draft pool is a factor that isn't captured in the calculator as well. That obviously varies from year to year.

If we gave up Watts 29 & 36 & took back 13 & 49, apparently that places Watts value in the deal as pick 46.

The points tally would actually have West Coast as big 'winners' in the deal.

Port are haggling over giving up a third rounder or second rounder for Ah Chee (WC value at a 4th)

I don’t ever recall us being the target of so much acrimonious vituperation over our trade dealings in any past season. I’ll take it as a positive.

The fear is real. A lot of clubs will not like us getting stronger and with greater depth.

i will be fascinated to hear the bile from his mouth soon....

Looks like GWS'  Matt Kennedy will go for pick 40 to Carltank, why can't we go after these players instead of selling the farm. He's shown more than Tyson at the same age and somehow we gave up pick 2 for him.
