It is a joke that the AFL have a system of compensation picks but have no criteria for awarding them. Demetriou is getting more arrogant than the man Mundine if he thinks he can get away with that!
 
Every other Club supporters will be rolling over on laughter at how we got screwed..
Lose two players but get one pick...

Yup thank you Clint for saving your best work till last!!!

No ill feelings toward Murphy because its obvious he had to leave but Young there was no reason to leave!!!
 
The compensation isn't intended to be more than a gesture. 66 for Young is less than I expected, I admit, but you guys are misunderstanding the system if you were expecting us to be fairly compensated, or get anything like what we could have gotten as a trade for either player.

Absolutely gob-smacked that Youngy was only worth a 3rd rounder and Chaplin and Pearce were second rounders each.

Assume the Lake deal pushed out Young's value.

Is that right?

Pearce and Chaplin is what makes the Young compensation even harder to accept.
 
Chaplin pick 30, Pearce pick 31, Moloney pick 49, Lynch pick 62

Young is a better player than all of those guys except maybe Pearce

Moloney and Lynch were playing in the 2s FFS while Young was a starter in a grand final side. How does that work?

Absolute Bullshit
 
What the f**k!!
We have been right royally screwed. Can someone please explain how the AFL have come to this conclusion?
Am I missing something or have we got what we deserved?
This is bulls**t....:mad:

So do you think Goddard would get much more in a traditional trade? Pretty much market value is pick 13

According to Patrick Keane from The Age
Under Free Agency Rules,any compensation based on new contract offer (which reflects position within all contracted players in AFL) and age.
 
Moloney, Lynch and Young all got ranked equally. The different picks for compensation reflect the fact that the compensation picks are tied to ladder position, so they were all deemed to be worth a third round pick for compensation but each team's third round pick is at a different position of the third round. It should not be tied to ladder position. That is the main problem.
