Pickett, Baker and Aarts would have to be upgrade to senior contracts wouldn't they? So that's another 3 spots we need to find plus whoever we want to draft.
We don't have room to play in the trade this year. And anyone we offload would need to be for future picks, not this years.

I suspect the AFL may just allow clubs to move players between the rookie list and main list this year without having to go through the draft, ie. usually you need to delist and then re-rookie, we do have a few that need to be promoted. I think only Baker we have to upgrade, the other 2 are still within their first 3 years at the club.
Agree we don't have much room to play and our trading should all be around getting our 1st pick as high as possible or future picks. 2nds and 3rds this year for us are pretty worthless. We will keep some to match any bid on MRJ but thats all.
Can't believe he leaves for less then 400k and only on 2 yrs.
While that Adelaide dud Atkins gets 4yrs at 400k.
Our players don't have value in the open market.
Lets see what Higgins gets us, pick78?
We fked up badd picking him up in 2017 considering the players that were still available.
Not happy Zip

Swap of 3rd rounders
He was good enough to keep.
5 years under our system. Good pace and a good kick.
I love Bachar, what he's done for our club but I would hate to think that we gave him an extra year and it forced Markov out the door.
Egg - not guaranteed to make it but showed continued improvement. Just needs to add what Bachar and Short added to their games defensively
Naish - see Egg
Turner - gone
Perhaps Ralphsmith is a possibility to move into the half back runner role.

Swap of 2021 3rds is the best scenario. Swapping 3rds this year does nothing for us.
Bugger. Would like to have kept him.
Can't begrudge him leaving though for more oppurtunity. Its a shame we probably won't see the best of him but thats what happens to successful clubs unfortunately. Can't fit everyone in and some will slip through the cracks.
Good luck to him i say.

Assuming GC finish down the bottom again. If they get Treloar and Rowell plays the whole year, they are a chance at playing finals. If it's a swap of 2021 picks, has to be our 3rd round for their 2nd round.
We have a solid record with 2nd rounders. Picks between 20-30 have worked for us.
I would be pushing for a GC 2nd rounder with our 3rd rounder going back to them.
Worse case scenario just swap our 2nd with there 2nd this year.
Quality talls in this year's group
Has to come down to what the club have told him. Think we might regret this. As I've posted before, I believe he has a big upside with greater experience. Raw pace is valuable - with other skills. Not sure if many left at RFC would be able to catch him.
We lose Oleg and Turner - both running machines - but keep Naish and Stack thus far, and re-contract Bachar. Not sure if that's the best LT strategy. We have to keep Bach but Stack?
It's really tough to see these promising guys go for a dipstick who decided he was too good to properly prepare to play at the level over 2020, then throw the continuation of the whole comp in jeopardy, which would have cost us another premiership due to a few beers and craving a kebab. Has cost us players and assistant coaches very likely. I apply the same 2nd criticism to CCJ but we do not have a surplus of rucks, unlike HBFs, and he also doesn't seem to have done much else wrong so far.
Not happy. [If true re Oleg}
Forever a bottom six type player. Handy for depth but not really a big deal.
