Worst trade ever!

Featured Replies

Posted

There's a discussion on bigfooty about the worst trade ever and a Carlton supporter suggested that this year's trade by Richmond for Jordan McMahon qualified as the worst ever.

A Tiger fan came back with this beauty -

Worst trade ever?

That's easy. Pick 16 and 46 for Stephen O'Reilly who played 12 games for you. AND you had to pay him illegally outside the cap. AND he blew the whistle on you. AND you had to pay a fine. AND you got kicked out of the draft and had to recruit hacks. AND it meant that your mulit-million investment in Denis Pagan was a waste because he had no players.

Stephen O'Reilly for - Pick 16, pick 46, $1m fine, pick 1, 2, 17 and 33 in the 2003 draft, pick 1 in the 2003 PSD, 1st and 2nd round picks in the 2004 draft.

I reckon that would have the McMahon trade covered by a couple of laps of Flemington, then a trip down the highway for a run round Caulfield, before a backtrack to run the length of the Moonee Valley straight.

 

Cop that!

 

If only the Tigers were as good at comebacks as their supporters!

They may have actually made more than Two finals series in the past 25 years :lol: !

That's outstanding.


its about then that you start to say something, stutter, then think better of it.

Its make the old Richmond/SM deal of John Pitura/ Graeme Teasdale, Whale Roberts and Francis Jackson look reasonable! B)

That’s the biggest pounding I’ve seen since Hulk Hogan got “Pearl Harboured” by Mr Wonderful Paul Orndorff!!

 

Gold!

Glad to see some one else remember the great "Mr. Wonderful", any one that kisses their own biceps whilst wrestling is cool!

Scott Steiner and Chris Masters carry the tradition.

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
