Re: LDU

St Kilda's pick 25 has already become pick 28 due to first round (Band 1) compensation for Battle & Perryman and end of first round (Band 2) for Isaac Cummings. That will slip further because of father son and academy picks for Levi Ashcroft, Sam Marshall, Isaac Kako & Leo Lombard. That make...

Get something for him now or lose him as a free agent in 12 months?
They would get a top 3 draft pick as compensation (depending on where they finish), that is what he is worth to North in a years time.

Re: LDU

Give North our first 3 picks that is picks 7 & 8 and 25 as they stand now in return for pick 2 and LDU. But we would have LDU and the 3rd best midfielder from the draft. But I am only dreaming because it values LDU at a little over 1400 points before and after all the draft compensations & f...

Re: Band 1 compensation

Would you consider splitting the picks Pick 8 for 15 & 20 Giving us picks 7, 15, 20, 25 I would prefer to explore going the other way. The very best midfielders in this draft will be gone at pick 8 (St Kilda first pick after Brisbane steals Ashcroft) As it stands Richmond has pick 1 (3000 point...

Re: Band 1 on the run

St Kilda presently has pick 7 & 8 but those will certainly slip as Brisbane will queue jump to take father/son Ashcroft.

Re: Brownlow

It would have been a travesty if Cripps hadn't won. He certainly was the best player this season, by a fair margin. But I agree that 45 votes was ludicrous. And even more ludicrous was how much the possession-gatherers dominated the votes this season: more than I can ever remember. The top ten incl...

But what about a straight swap for Max King.

The AFL has cameras at every entrance and around the ground with face and body recognition software.
They will also have secret police watching and reporting his every move when he leaves his home.

Battle has been very good for us in the past three seasons. Very hard to replace. No doubt we'll get screwed over with the change in the rules around compensation.
