All of the clubs have blokes flying all over, watching games (or - in most cases, drinking coffee and idly chatting to one another). But ultimately they are paying them for a reason...let them loose to pick the right blokes.

I'm not trading pick 3 for pick 8 and Liam Baker. How does that move the needle in any way??? Not. Happening. Don't West Coast need as many GOOD players as they can get? If they wanted 'average' players, they could have traded away pick 1 last year and picked up 3 first rounders...but they didn't do that. Why in goodness name would they do this?
I'd be interested in seeing the median in addition to the average of those picks. Whip that up for me overnight if you can, please MJP.
