Who is the Top 6

Post: # 1164137Post Buckets »

Lot of talk throughout the last week that the saints will not trade any of their top 6 players on the list.


So the question is who in your mind are the 6 untouchables?
IMO


1. Roo
2. Bj
3. Dal
4. Lenny
5. Joey
6. Milne - possibly Big Ben


Thoughts?
Remembering that everyone else is tradeable...

The club was using Riewoldt, Lenny, Dal, Fisher, BJ and Montagna in their advertising all this year...so safe to say that the club views those as the top 6. It appears Gilbert is also included giving statements coming out of the club regarding him not being up for trade

I knew I was forgetting someone! :oops:

Ok so if you take Milne out put Chips in that means anyone else including Milne and McEvoy could be traded by 2pm tomorrow. If we are that close to the cap tomorrow will be interesting.

I don't think they said top 6 as a literal cut off. Reckon there could be about 10 players or possibly more that they classify in our 'top 6'.

Good as Lenny is - at his age he has no trade value
So his name won't be on the table.

The top 6 are the ones used by the club in terms of marketing etc. The are probably the 6 on the highest pay as well.

Neither Lenny or Milne would have any trade value and seems Gilbert moves onto that list in being off limits. There are probably a few others too.

Let's say our top 7 is pretty clear
Roo dal bj len joey chips milne

Great top 7 but the age profile and average age of that top 7 is diabolical.
Serious serious issue. Desperately need mecevoy steven and one other to bust into that top 7 next season.

And before someone says its a similar age profile to geelong. It is except they have 3 flags to their names already. That's a big difference.

100% Correct, although Milney had a fantastic year, our best 6 players are listed above.

Milney would be 7th.

I reckon GWS would disagree with you.
