Re: Why trade away so many picks?

Our "successful" period from 2004 until 20011 was due to hitting the draft hard for 4 years and then doing some trades. This rebuild we have butchered most of our draft picks yet we are acting as though we are a top 4 side and topping up. It's not going to work. You must build that core gr...

Re: Who To Delist

McCartin has to be de-listed for his own sake. One more knock and he could suffer brain damage. It's not worth the risk Patrick.

Re: Next Generation Academy Rules?

Hi Gurus, I was wondering if anyone knowledgeable can fill me in on the draft rules pertaining to academy players? Particularly interested in Biggy Nyuon. How do we sit given our low picks? Do we still have a chance? If he is bid on before pick 40 (roughly) and we want him we will have to use some ...

Re: No.1

Face facts everyone, we offered more money than any other team could to Hill. $900k per year is ridiculous money. Now that our Salary cap has been squeezed to the max, lets see how many players "nominate" us next year. PS. How do you think the rest of the players are going to feel when th...

Re: What’s the latest on Jack Steven?

Now Brian Cook is in the media today claiming that Geelong don't want to part with one of their picks in the 20's or 30's. So if I was St Kilda, I'd stand firm and tell Geelong to shove it. If Jack wants to play footy with them in 2020 then they need to stump up or Jack can either sit out a year or...

Well trade week is upon us. What is your vision for 2020? Here is mine! My Dream Trades would be: Josh Bruce and pick 57 for pick 13 from Western Bulldogs. 13 is just too much for Bruce but they need him big time. Throwing in pick 57 makes it more attractive and justifiable for them. They will pick...

Re: Roberton Good to Go in 2020???

I am not a doctor but I really believe Roberton and McCartin should retire for their own good (as well as the clubs). It is too risky for either of them to attempt to come back. One would be risking having a heart attack on the field and the other would be risking permanent brain damage (or heaven f...

Major sideways trading if we end up with him and trade out Carlisle, unless we get Keath dirt cheap and Carlisle nets us significant value.
