Geelong (2015)ย
In: Patrick Dangerfield and pick 50 (unused)ย
Out: Dean Gore, pick 9 (Wayne Milera) and pick 28 (Mitch Hibberd)ย
While this deal was struck in good faith, the scales were nowhere near even. Not then, and certainly not now.
After acting as the linchpin in the trade that saw Patrick Dangerfield move from West Lakes back to Moggs Creek, Dean Gore cemented himself as the answer to a trivia question for future generations.
And with such a decorated career, you can bet your bottom dollar that these generations will know who Dangerfield is without much prompt.
