Understand that JNM, but Meek was traded the next year so he was gettable at some stage and he also went to a club with a huge young ruckman, so Max wouldn’t have put him off possibly and we might have then saved the embarrassing Grundy fallout.

I would love to know if we rated either player and if we even asked. My gut feel is we didn’t rate either of them and that if true worries me considering our last few trades.

I am wrapt in Caleb and was since his first practice match but i was talking if a player in addition to the picks we got.

We could have said we would deal with WC to get the deal done, but i know, spilt milk.

It just annoys me when I see the players traded into other clubs succeeding.

GuessIi am just a cranky old Dees fan.

Jackson refused to deal with West Coast, so it’s a moot point. 
As for Meek it’s possible that they said it’s Meek and a second rounder and we decided that a first round pick was better than Meek. Which it is. 
 

They were never trading Treacy. It’s like if they came to us and said here’s Brayshaw but we want JVR. You’d tell them to go take a long walk off a short pier. 
 

Understand your frustration but just look at Pies overpaying for Shultz and that’ll make you feel really good 😂

What about my outrageous idea of trading him at the end of season 2021? To force a deal with WC.

As mentioned beforehand there were huge red flags that he was departing anyway. 

Thanks for the premiership, you may go home now. It would've been easier to leverage his last year under contract.

My understanding is that LJ indicated that he was happy and keen to stay after the 2021 flag. And in fact up until midway thru 2022 he never said he wanted out. 

Hindsight is a wonderful thing tho. Especially when it comes to trading and drafting.

his knee clearly limits his mobility from time to time - it bothered him all the way through the back half of 2022 and seems to crop up and bother him every now and then over the last two years

he would still suit our game style perfectly; it's such a shame he left, more so than hogan

i believe we got more 'value' for him than any other player traded in the afl

i'm confident that jefferson and windsor - the players we effectively received for him - will be players for us for some time

i wish him all the best, but i hope dog never tastes premiership success again

Haha I love this! You wish him all the best for the future except for another flag! 

Exactly how I feel about him.  He was a selfish Dogga without loyalty.

He was and still is overrated.  He can be good sometimes, but never consistently.  It's clear in some games he can't be bothered his @rse.

Nothing but an oppo player to me now too especially after his smarminess in the whippings they handed us this year.  

I wish him all the best for a career of mediocrity and underachieving because he's lazy and doesn't feel like it. 

Sorta like after a bad breakup in youthful days with somebody who's ditched you.  I don't want anything terrible happen to him, just for him to totally go to seed and get bald and fat and not be really successful and happy. 

Then whenever you bump into him you can see that he's full of regrets about ditching the best team and fans and missing the good times and his prime that have now past him by. 

Delicious Schadenfreude, hopefully he meets us wearing a premiers beanie, 2025 or 2026 or thereabouts in the near future.  Sooner than Slagmantle anyway.
