Re: Tambling Threads (merged)
Don't worry Justice of the Peace, Polak has the tools to be a great tradesman down back , and up forward, give him a year to settle completley, and he'll be fresher and stronger next year, let's not forget, Polak would be in the same transitional state as Simmonds was in his first year.

So then what is your opinion on Richmond trading 8 & 42 and receiving Polak & Pick 13?
Initially I was horrified, but 42 is a stab in the dark. The downgraded pick 8 still gives us a very servicable player and Polack is young. I'm pretty happy with it now that Polack has shown that he does belong at AFL level. We effectively got two KPP's for the price of one.
42 was not a stab in the dark it was a deep draft and their was still quality available
the only concern on polak will be if he can take the next step or if he will just be a mediocre kp utility
we'll wait and see
