cheers. very quick deal to get through, pleasure as always boof

Logic:
-IMO Ablett to come back to the pack, will not average much more than lake...for all i know could be 130+ but won't take the risk - was going to trade if right deal came
-Lake kpd, age aside he probably = ablett
-Best/my fave youngun in the comp as a bonus

Yeah, Ablett won't be any good in a losing side. Just look at how bad he was vs Collingwood in the Prelim, or agaisnt Hawthorn in the 08 grand final.

Yeah its funny deals like this often end up looking horribly one sided. This one and the Chapman for leon davis one as examples.

there are plenty of deals that end up looking horrible 3 years on. When you traded chapman for davis tbnb, there was more to the deal but i cant remember the rest of it.

What was wrong with that deal? They were virtually identical when the trade was made, and Davis was ontraded long before he retired. Shut up Lummas.

At the time Ablett was #1 player here. I remember how you used to add like 20/30 points onto a players average for being a key position player haha

Yeah, I did.

I think I exponentially multiplied their average or something.

Boof singlehandedly changed the value of KPPs, if I remember correctly. They've definitely fallen in value

I don't think he so much changed the value of key position players, it was more that he alerted people to the ridiculous price they carried and demonstrated that even without the top line KPP's it was still very possible to mix it with the best.

Ironically enough, he now has arguably the best key forward set up in the league with Hawkins, Roughead and Tippett.

Ablett only averaged 127, 138, 129 and 137 the next four years after this one. No biggie.
