What If This Happened?
The Saints send pick 37 to GCS for Tom Hickey
Then we send Farren Ray to Melbourne for Jordan Gysberts
Cripps & 25 to WCE for Brown & 61.
Would leave us with picks 13, 46, 57, 61 Etc. 4 picks in the first 3 rounds plus a ruck, mid, KPD!
Thoughts?

Re: What If This Happened?
Probably meets our needs - IF we land Hickey no need for Martin so Gysberts helps out midfield depth.
Would like something a little lower back from Eagles for Cripps and a second rounder...not sure what thet got...
Overall probably not a bad outcome
I cant see GC acceoting 37 for Hickey - reckon 25 will go there.
Cripps + 37 for Brown?

Re: What If This Happened?
Hickey is worth more than Brown... no way Brown is worth 25, let alone Cripps + 25...

Re: What If This Happened?
If Melbourne are really into Ray, maybe a 3 way swap with Brisbane - Ray to Melb, Martin to Bris, a Brisbane pick to us (24 maybe? or 33).
We end up with 13, 24, 25, send 37 to GC for Hickey, and Cripps & 46 to WCE for Brown.

Re: What If This Happened?
Anyone who thinks GCS will accept 37 fpr Hickey is living on a planet a long way from Earth
If we get him it will involve 13 in some way shape or for...which is why we havent done a deal yet..

I like a lot, but feel we'll need to give more for Brown even if he isn't worth it.True Believer wrote:If Melbourne are really into Ray, maybe a 3 way swap with Brisbane - Ray to Melb, Martin to Bris, a Brisbane pick to us (24 maybe? or 33).

Everyone wins! Except Melbourne, West Coast and Gold Coast. They get shafted. So basically St Kilda win from those trades, which is why there's zero chance of them happening.sax wrote:The Saints send pick 37 to GCS for Tom Hickey

Re: What If This Happened?
I think 25 for Brown would be around the mark, and they get Cripps for 61… So maybe lose slightly with Brown, but gain slightly with Cripps?bergholt wrote:Everyone wins!

I don't know enough about Gysberts to comment on his value next to Ray… Is he worth more?
Re: What If This Happened?
25 for Brown would be very cheap, given that he's a key position player who would easily play 22 games for us next year. Tall players don't grow on trees.dragit wrote:I think 25 for Brown would be around the mark, and they get Cripps for 61… So maybe lose slightly with Brown, but gain slightly with Cripps?
61 is a bit cheap for Cripps but not hugely so - there's not exactly a stampede for his services, and he's refusing to play for us so his value to us is zero.
I don't know that much about him, but I see them as vaguely similar players - but Gysberts is five years younger so perhaps has more value.dragit wrote:I don't know enough about Gysberts to comment on his value next to Ray… Is he worth more?

Re: What If This Happened?
I don't think Cripps has stated that he refuses to play for St Kilda... rumour was that the club approached him to see if he was interested in a trade home.bergholt wrote:25 for Brown would be very cheap, given that he's a key position player who would easily play 22 games for us next year.

Still a good chance to re-sign if WC hold firm on Brown.

I'd think that would probably be the ideal scenario, however it's looking pretty unlikely it will happen like that.sax wrote:The Saints send pick 37 to GCS for Tom Hickey
