You would give up pick 37 all day everyday for a dual premiership player, in the best 22 of the most dominant side in the comp.
Gold Coast aren't giving up anything. Richmond are getting pick 37 as compensation. Great deal for Suns, they get a dual premiership player, albeit an outside runner. Great deal for Ellis .... he gets more money and is guaranteed a game each week. Still a good deal for Richmond as they free up some salary space and the way they are going they'll probably pluck a diamond with pick 37.
