Deal of the year?

Post: # 1218000Post GrumpyOne »

Is it too early to call?

Milera and Saad for one draft pick?

Possibly less than that.

Gave up pick 20 and got pick 25 in return. Used that on Seb Ross who we quite likely would have picked at 20. So we may have got them for NOTHING! :D

Even if one of them come on and become an above average player we have probably one.

Saad last year looked fantastic and I said so a few times I saw him on tv. Milera has taken to the AFL like the proverbial duck. He also looks about 13 so hopefully he has 17 years left as a player? chortle.

Still pinching myself. If we can get Ross to fire as well. That is an amazing trade/drafting.

I was thinking that early in the game, particuarly with Milera, it already appears that we have come out in front in that deal, but how good will it look if they keep improving, love it.


I love this club

Pelchen got some nice speculative ones into the Hawks and somehow it's come off again. Saad was the guy I thought would come in round one and dominate, so far Milera has been demanding a spot now we have both looking up and about. How good is it to find some new talent that aren't stodgy role players.

Deal of the year? :shock: Getting two of the most talented and exciting prospects, who were likely to be ready go from the outset, for a drop of just 5 spots in the draft order, in a reportedly weak draft, is more likely to be a contender for deal of the decade, or more, if these two go on with it.
