I can't believe the Power traded Carr for 3 picks in the draft but would not deal with us last year. How obvious is it now that last year was just a case of sour grapes with Williams not trading with us. They weren't standing their ground, the Power were just being *******'s. Bottom line Williams just didn't want to deal with Collingwood, probably because we wooped 'em in the prelim.

Yh we offered draft picks 17, as well as 32, even scotland at one stage. Looking back that was more than adequate compensation if they let Josh Carr go for 3 draft picks.

Probably just means Choco & co think Carr will not change Freo's fortunes like Stevens would have ours.

Unfortunately, Didak is a cult figure here............still disappointed we said no.......

Life goes on!

Freo gave up 3 picks for Carr.
Freo has once again sold their soul and paid a huge price for an average player. They played right into Port's hands, as they did with Brissy in getting Hedland. WTF has Hedland done since he has been at Freo... ZIP.. ZERO... Jack Shit.... Nothing... Carr is nothing special, he is just homesick and Port used that to their advantage!
Another Freo blunder which will haunt them in years to come.

Stevens didn't come to Collingwood because we wouldn't be bent over the South Australian sheering fence and sodomised by their beligerent tactics. At least we had the common decency to allow Nick davis to go home for a reasonable draft pick, albeit, he may be back in Vic next year.

Good on him. He did well with his dealing. He is a tight yet smart recruiter.
