Better? Worse? Same? Where Do Teams Sit After Trade/Free Agency?

I’m a simple man. Ask around…. people are aware.

As such, I like to break things down into the simplest possible terms at times. When looking at the AFL Trade Period, which was surprisingly active and entertaining this year, I like to look at which teams made a significant improvement in their list for the coming season, which teams stagnated, and which teams got worse.

For this purpose, we have to forget about future draft picks – I know they’re a huge part of deals, but we will not see these aspects of deals bear any fruit until at least the 2024 season. So, concentrating only on the upcoming 2023 season, who got better, who got worse, and who stayed the same?

 

Uh oh… the rest of this one is behind the Mongrel Paywall. Don’t you hate that? This is where I try to provide value to our Mongrel Members. They will receive access to five or so exclusive columns per week during the off-season detailing trades, free agency, player profiles, drafts, statistical analysis, and then into the pre-season previews. Wanna join them and support the best damn independent footy site you’ll find?
