The Pies got value out of that deal. The Cats had to give up a player that was a higher draft pick to Henry the previous year(which the Pies got Tom Mitchell(and a flag)for), as well as pick28!
With their defence and a trade steal firing, the Cats lead the ladder. The next three weeks will tell us if they really deserve to
How was it wrong for Pies to get TOM MITCHELL and a flag the following year because of that?

The Cats gave up more than they should have had to for Ollie Henry! They ALSO traded Cooper Stephens(Pick#16, 2019Draft) to Hawks in a package deal that got Pies TOM MITCHELL! Ollie Henry was pick #17 in the 2020Draft, so Cooper had and extra year of development and was 1 pick higher than Ollie!

Pick 28 and Cooper Stephens(Pick#16, 2019Draft), who was traded to Hawks which helped the Pies to get TOM MITCHELL(and a flag), was definitely not ‘unders’!

Cameron Rose is no expert if he can’t see past the Melbourne mob(or one-eyed Pie supporter) mentality and at least recognise that Ollie Henry was traded for more than just pick 28. The Cats ALSO traded Cooper Stephens(Pick #16, 2019Draft) to Hawks to seal the deal to get Pies TOM MITCHELL, which helped the Pies to win a flag!

Tom Lynch can be a good player but is too reliant on pushing his opponents in the back in the marking contest>>> This is why he lead the contested marks last season! <<>> He got a lot of ‘contested marks’ and I don’t think he had any Free Kicks paid against him for doing it! Does it easily once per game on average!
The Roar's AFL top 50 players, 20-11: Superstar after superstar - but should any of these guns have cracked the top 10?
If the Cats win the GF next season then they become the most successful club of the modern era(since the AFL was formed in 1990)! >>> Already have most wins, just need to equal Hawks for flags!
Cats chasing the next AFL dynasty
Rohan isn’t the ‘obvious out’>>> He’s a tough uncompromising player that compliments the Cats’ forward line because he can play tall or small, he chases, tackles and reads the flight of the ball well. He’s got pace that can break lines with his run and is an accurate shot on goal!

I understand your point but going by your logic and reasoning, I don’t see why you would think it better for Conor to play for a weaker side, if a premiership is ultimately what he’s after. You obviously don’t rate him highly enough if you don’t believe that he can break into Brisbane’s best 22 to win a premiership! Also, Conor left Australia because of the Covid BS, so why would his preference be a Melbourne club where lockdowns are more likely?!?
Irishman's brutal Bomber call after announcing AFL return with Brisbane
I just explained how and why the Tigers weren’t worthy! Ignorance is bliss, isn’t it? This is what the AFL’s lack of integrity hinges on>>> People like you that can accept that corruption because ultimately, you love AFL more than you care about its integrity! Integrity means much more to me than anything else! The Cats weren’t that far in front at half time but in a fairly umpired game they would have been much more in front and Richmond wouldn’t have been able to have come back from there(again, in a fairly umpired game). As I have said, the inconsistency of the umpiring in that finals series(compared from one game to another) can’t be ignored! To allow the Tigers to push their opponents in the back in the GF, after the umpires repeatedly penalised them in the Preliminary final against Port for doing it, exposed a BIG HOLE in the AFL’s integrity for that finals series! If you watched for it in both games, one after the other, you would see my point but Tigers fans wouldn’t because it would shatter their reality of the Tigers being ‘deserving winners’ of that GF!
No doubt about it, Geelong are the deserving premiers
Also, to say that Tomahawk gets away with poor decisions by the umpires at times >>> Can you recall anything other than that one time that he blatantly pushed Harris Andrews in the back and got away with it? Because I have examples and screen shots of many times that Tomahawk didn’t get treated fairly from the umpires last season! Tomahawk is really the ONLY true Power Forward in the game atm and he gets a lot of attention from opposition players that will goto any length to stop his influence and put him off his game and the umpires let them get away with A LOT! I think for you to suggest that Tomahawk gets more than his fair share of support from the umpires is the Melbourne Mob mentality because why is Tom Lynch’s rep not tarnished by you guys like that when he literally pushes his opponents in the back in EVERY GAME and gets away with it! <_<
No doubt about it, Geelong are the deserving premiers
That was fair play by Dangerfield >>>I’ve dispelled that on my FB also with Screen shots>>> Danger had a right to attack the ‘live’ ball, which he arrived at FIRST>>> He fisted the ball away from himself because he was about to be sandwiched between 2 tigers players, he PULLED HIS ARM BACK TO DEFEND HIMSELF FROM THE IMPACT! Vlastuin had the intent to physically hurt Geelong players which was evident within the first 6 seconds of the game when he hit Simpson Head High when he was in possession of the ball(and the umpires didn’t reward him with a deserved Free Kick) and Danger had a ‘front row seat’ to that performance so rightly so he would have been pissed and he had a split second to decide whether he should raise his elbow or clash heads with Vlastuin and I think that by the tone of the game that Richmond/Vlastuin(and the umpires) had set, then Vlastuin should have been aware that it was coming for him(fight fire with fire)! I hope that Danger did choose to lift his elbow to knock him out because Vlastuin DESERVED it by his own actions! STILL FAIR PLAY and within the rules>>> Vlastuin should have got out of the way of the freight train coming through, but HE DIDN’T!
No doubt about it, Geelong are the deserving premiers
And far more developed coz he’s older but so should the #1 pick in the draft be more dependable! Although, didn’t have as good a debut season as DeKoning! 😛
Who is the AFL's most valuable player?
Maybe never before seen to you because you’ve had your eyes closed! I’ve recorded for reference when people like you argue with me about it. I have proof to support my claims, you don’t have anything except for your naive belief in AFL integrity!
No doubt about it, Geelong are the deserving premiers
OK simple question for you >>> When is it within the rules in AFL football to ‘attack the man’? 😂
No doubt about it, Geelong are the deserving premiers
What’s outrageous is how the umpires could have ignored the Free Kicks that should have been awarded to the Cats at the start of that GF! I have all the screen shots of the first half that reveal that it wasn’t just a few Free Kicks that the umpires ignored!
No doubt about it, Geelong are the deserving premiers
Where did I say that the Cats went into the 2020 GF thinking that the umpires were against them?!? Their first half displayed that they were well and truly deserving of being there! I will never get over umpire cheating, just like I will never watch that 2007 GF win out of disgust for how the umpires tainted it with their biased umpiring for the Cats! Ultimately, I want to see the Cats win a FAIR game, especially in finals! Integrity is of extreme importance to me!
No doubt about it, Geelong are the deserving premiers
I just explained how umpiring calls can have an effect on a team’s confidence and imo that’s why the Tigers were able to turn the tide around. You obviously haven’t broken the umpiring down to a play-by-play analysis like I have! Yes, I have made an assumption but so have you when you assume that there was integrity in the umpiring on that day and you haven’t given thought as to how much of an impact that has on the confidence of both sides, when one team knows that the umpires are on their side and the other team knows that they aren’t protected by the umpires! It wasn’t just that the Cats should have been at least 30pts up at half time in the 2020GF!
No doubt about it, Geelong are the deserving premiers
The Cats only lost 4 games for the season but were robbed twice by the umpires last season>>> Against Sydney(Rnd#2) and against Hawthorn(Rnd#5) and I have the screen shots on my FB profile made public to support those beliefs!

'Learned my lesson': Geelong’s day in the sun
Oh damn well that’s twice I’ve been corrected. Thanks for that! 👍
'Learned my lesson': Geelong’s day in the sun
That’s not true >>> The Cats were robbed by the umpires in the 2020 GF! First 6 seconds of the game showed who the umpires were for/against when they looked the other way when Simpson(Geel) received the ball and Vlastuin(Rich) hit him Head High! The Cats should have been at least 30points up by half time but the umpires kept allowing Richmond to play dirty against the Cats and didn’t pull them up for pushes in the backs, etc that the Cats never received Free Kicks for! I have the screen shots of at least 3 Free Kicks(I have a lot more than that for the 2020GF) within the first 30seconds that the Cats should have received but didn’t. It exposed a glaring inconsistency with the umpiring that finals campaign because the umpires pulled the Tigers up against Port Adelaide for their back pushing tactics(which the Tigers lost) but didn’t pull them up for it against the Cats in the GF! Before the GF I posted on my FB #RewardTheManInFront and mentioned about looking out for Tom Lynch pushing Harry Taylor in the back
and 26seconds into the game that’s exactly what happened(No Free Kick WTF?!?)! Now you might think that’s just my biased opinion but I just want to point out something else. When teams know that they have the umpires on their side and they are protected, that is HUGE for confidence >>>It emboldens that team and the same can be said the opposite way>>> When a team thinks the umpires are against them it upsets their focus and makes them 2nd guess everything that they do. This is how the umpires try to manipulate games to advantage a team and it’s exactly what they wanted to achieve in the 2020 GF! Why do you people assume that there is any integrity in professional sport?!? There is never integrity when money is involved! <_<
No doubt about it, Geelong are the deserving premiers
Ohh shi …now I gotta go back and see if most Cats wins extends to there(I think it does)

Pies have NEVER beaten the Cats in a GF btw 😛
'Learned my lesson': Geelong’s day in the sun
Most wins of any team in the comp since the AFL was formed in 94!

Thank you! At least someone has a clue here! Obviously , Cameron Rose doesn’t!
