Finally, we have a captain.

Some people might find this trade interesting given Bartel is 26 (27 before the start of next season) and the side I have built is around the 20-24 age bracket.

At the end of the day, I'm sticking to my overall plan to win a flag within 3 seasons.

2010 - Rebuild an ageing list - completed
2011 - Make finals - in progress
2012 - Win premiership

Bartel is garunteed to still be gunning it in 2012 so this trade is a strong move in the right direction. Also, another of the "old Geelong" have been brought back after joeys_allstars traded all my loved ones.

Cheers spud, great pickup getting 3. You have some excellent midfielders to chose from.

Love Jimmy Bartel.. but can't see him averaging over 100 next season.. his avg continues to decline over the last few seasons.. Maybe im wrong and his score will increase when Ablett leaves, or maybe it'll decline even more..

All i know is that pick 3 will get me a young fella who will be worth a lot come draft time..

Agree with your assessment of pick 3, but I'm finding it hard to see any logic behind how Bartel wont be a 100+ but if thats ur justification then so be it. He's been a fantasy star for years, and he's not yet 27.

Over 3 years until he turns 30, given his game has never relied on his supreme pace (or lack of) I see no reason why he will drop off at all.
