Thanks Jarusa, I went to the AFL website to try to find that, didn't look long, but didn't find anything either.
Not much chop there at all. Very little you're going to draft that you couldn't have got with a 4th round pick in the National Draft. We should feel extra fortunate to have obtained Stevens, the equal of any #1 selection in the National draft, but this was a once off.
Synbad certainly seems to think we'll get a star with the 1st pick in the PSD and the extra cash we're going to have. Early on he pushed the PSD harder than he has been lately, as players slowly sign with their clubs.
Blokes like you and Jarusa have no clue when it comes to the realities .. Jarusa is just a stats bloke.. likes to look at numbers that mean nothing.. (Other peoples numbers)
Ok... look... Hamill... "If you dont trade me ill walk"
Gehrig.. the same...
Powell PSD in the same year Luke Penny would have left for nothing to the Saints if he wasnt traded.
You guys dont get it do you???
Someone still needs to hold your hand to cross the road right???
Wow.. the world is complex isnt it?
Jade Rawlings would have gone for nothing...
Stevens left for nothing...
Theres a player who threatened to leave Brisbane for nothing unless he was traded to Freo.
Luke McPharlin said he would go to Freo for nothing.. Freo got him with a second round pick....
The list is endless.
I bet we will be traded a player cheap this year instead of having him walk and i also bet we will get a good pre season draft uncontracted player.
Thats what i like about Jarusas statistics... just goes to prove they mean nothing.Just love the way he uses them...
Brad doesnt surprise me with his thought process.
Proven time and time again he is no Michaelangelo model for 'the Thinker'
If you read my post I said the PSD data does not help either side of the argument. I was just providing it for people to argue over, I did not give any opinion on it.
So leave me out of it, and start reading the posts for a change.
