    List of the worst trades of all time, gotta love this one...

    The deal: Richmond trade Steve McKee and pick 7 to Collingwood for Clinton King and pick 3.
    What could have been:     Matthew Pavlich (taken at pick 4), Joel Corey (pick 8), Darren Glass (pick 11), Robert Murphy (pick 13), Brad Green (pick 19).

    And this...The deal: Geelong trade pick 8 to Sydney for Jason Mooney.
    What could have been:     Jude Bolton (taken at pick 8), Lenny Hayes (pick 11).

    The deal: Chris Groom from Adelaide to Fremantle for Andrew McLeod and Matthew Collins.
    What could have been: A champion midfielder who earned five All Australian guernseys, instead of a not-quite-right key forward.



    he deal: Chris Tarrant from Collingwood to Fremantle for Paul Medhurst and pick 8.
    What could have been: Ben Reid (pick 8 to Collingwood), James Frawley (pick 12 to Melbourne), Jack Riewoldt (pick 13 to Richmond), Chris Dawes (pick 28 to Collingwood)

    Freo trading away the #1 and two other draft picks (in 2001 :laugh:) for Croad and McPharlin.

    Imagine how lethal their midfield would've been with Mitchell, Hodge and McLeod. Assuming they picked them with those picks.

  8. Skippos SM Morgan

    Brad Ebert, Pick 45 -> Port. Pick 28 & 49 -> WCE

    Dayne Zorko, Pick 47 -> Brisbane. Pick 34 -> GC

    Ivan Maric -> Richmond. Pick 37 -> Adelaide (ontraded for Tom T. Lynch who looks a goer, tbf. Also think had Maric stayed he'd have remained shit but that's not relevant, in retrospect it's a shit trade)

    Tambling -> Adelaide. 1st round comp (~20) + 51 -> Richmond

    Picking Tambling before Franklin - i know its not a trade but that'd have to be one of the most laughable things in the AFL. Ever!

  11. Dirk Diggler DM Diggler

    Taking Aaron Fiora before Pavlich is just as laughable.

    Even more so IMO. Tambling at least had his moments.

    Pretty sure we picked up Ben Reid with that #8 pick, Reiwoldt went 5 picks later. Jack that is.

    Still not sure how Jack Riewoldt slid to pick 13.

    He wasn't that great in his drafting year tbf.

    Yeah, Ben Reid was initially a forward but adapted to the backline. We took Dawes at 28 or 51 that year also.

    FMD it looks like a shitload of KPP went in 2006. Very different to say 2001 which was mostly midfielders lol.
