So if Melbourne did the deal, then they couldn’t do the Essendon deal.The thing is there was no better deal available
Only other thing we could have done was to use the picks in getting deals done for Rioli , Bolton & Baker
which we didnt need to do in the end and received the best possible result without the picks
If we still held the picks all we would have been doing is trying to off load them by using the picks to move up some of the later picks which really wouldn't have been possible either.
Sure i think we also over paid slightly at the time thinking why did we need to involve #32 but when the Melbourne news broke and they had 1600+ points on the table it all made sense on why we had to pay 2000 points
