Only if we both use those picks this year or next, and even then they get an extra one. From 2012 the Cats get a mid-first-round pick plus one straight after their own first rounder. So if they finish 9th they will have picks 10, 11 (their first-rounder), 12, while we would have our first-rounder plus pick 20 at best.jb03 said:Is it right to suggest that what we got for Tambling is not a great deal different from what Geelong got for Ablett?
Baloo said:Yep. Hopefully Essendon and Carlton realise that today and let us finalise our trading before the weekend.
Tiger74 said:On SEN nixon said he approached tambling back in jun or jul, saying he should look at a new club for a fresh start.
snaps truly said:I'm not sure if he initially wanted to stay in Melbourne. I've heard that two months ago he took a trip to the sunny gold coast to have a meeting with the suns. It seems he was exploring his options, not sure if he met with any vic teams.
Tiger74 said:in the interview, Nixon said after he said Tambling should consider his options, they sat down and compiled a list of clubs that would suit him
they had the Saints, the Crows, and one other club on the list (forget who it was)

Juffaricho said:Rodan was delisted based on poor medical advice. Tambling was traded because of consistently poor on-field performance. Big difference.

Rodan does very little different at Port to what he did at Richmond, it's the players around him that make him look better. You're also correct GO he's fairly inconsistent. Another club with a different playing style may suit Richard better and I hope he has a successful career at Adelaide, he just wasn't the right fit for the Tigers.GoodOne said:Rodan's not a star. All of Martin, Cotchin, Deledio are more consistent and better players than Rodan. Rodan can put in pearlers but he is way too inconsistent to be called a star.
