you also trade delist players according to list needs whilst taking into account where your list is at. whilst we are in full on rebuild mode all players are tradeable if it will improve our list. an example of this is leon cameron came to us at what 28 29 yrs of age the doggies got 2 draft picks hargreaves and hahn who came out of that one in front long term.you really shouldnt let sentiment get in the way of what needs to be done.
You know full fell the opportunity for these trades has passed. If we were going to do it we should have traded Joel or Richo in 04. Why keep torturing yourself?
As an aside, have you considered how you would feel if we traded Richo for picks and had got someone like Meeson?
i would be pissed not with the fact we traded that is the right thing to do imo. but with those for getting it wrong. just because you get a early pick wrong do you stop useing early picks. you identify the problem and fix it and continue to utilise early picks.
as for richo not being worth a first round pick well i point blank disagree. for a side like sydney or the bulldogs their thinking would be he could get them a premiership. look at the carey deal to adelaide 32 yo for picks 2 and 18 and that after carey missed a yr thru disgrace. at the very least i would be finding out what we could get.
