2023 trade talk (Part 1)

Pittonet just signed for 4 years.

TDK might be considering his future. We have the cap space for $700-$800k a year on a long contract. It’s a yes for me.

Despite being older he wasn’t doing much more than Bryan at VFL level.

I did this for another thread, thought I’d post it here as is interesting given all the attention Tom De Koning has been getting. Is the VFL performances for both players across 2021 to 2023. Averages of course.

Worth noting that Tom was drafted two years before Bryan, is about 20 odd months older, and played in his first 3 seasons 2, 7 and 13 AFL games. No idea if his VFl results are distorted due to any reasons (e.g. injury, low TOG).
