Do we know what compo pick we got for Dal?

[Jiminy Wagga]

Herald sun article dated 11th stated "it is understood the deal will also involve a further swap of picks, with the compensation selection Hawthorn receives for the loss of Lance Franklin (possibly pick 19) sent to the Saints, perhaps in exchange for a second-round pick.

The AFL is yet to confirm the Franklin compensation pick.

St Kilda list manager Ameet Bains said yesterday that acquiring three top-20 picks was “one of the strategic drivers that we set ourselves coming into the trade period … that’s the quickest way for us to transition our list’’.

The Saints hold picks 3, 18, 24 and 25 with one week of trading remaining.

Callum Twomey's rankings (Oct 9) has...

# 18. Trent Dumont 186cm / 85kg SA MID
Dumont was close to best on ground for Norwood in its SANFL premiership win on Sunday, having collected 20 disposals across half-forward and through the midfield. Only at stages this year has Dumont been able to show his wares at full fitness, and when he does he looks a real first-round prospect. Hard, tough, and with a little bit of dash, Dumont could step easily into an AFL system.

#17 Dom Sheed 187cm / 83kg WA MID.
Sheed could, and probably will, be drafted earlier than pick 17 come next month's draft. But given it's a year full of midfielders, each club and on-looker has slightly different opinions as to where to rank every player in the top bracket. Sheed's season ended with a high-quality performance in June when he broke his collarbone against Vic Country, having collected 29 disposals and kicked four goals. Kicks it long and attacks the contest.

#16 Blake Acres 190cm / 87kg WA MID
Acres is the modern-draft prospect. He's tall, quick, agile, can jump, mark and kick, and play nearly any position on the ground. Problem is that he's barely played this season, after a shoulder injury ruined his year and forced him into surgery. In nine games at colts level for West Perth, Acres played as an inside midfielder and averaged 27 disposals.

#19 Luke Dunstan 184cm / 83kg SA MID
Dunstan has been sidelined of late by a leg injury, a disappointing end to a solid year from the bullocking midfielder. The South Australian captained his side to its division one winning championship mid-year, and is a strong leader. Averaged 23 disposals for his state side, of which almost 40 per cent were contested.

#20 Darcy Gardner 193cm / 86kg Geelong Falcons Defender
Gardner pushed back down the list a touch but remains one of the better defenders available this year. The 193cm prospect is competitive, resilient and aggressive, and is a fighter. As a key defender he wills himself to contest after contest, and throws himself at the ball.


4 mids & a Defender. The defender sounds good and that's a few mids!

ANY PREDICTIONS ?

GO SAINTS!

[beebarry]

we got 22 - decent value under the circumstances I think

Thanks Wayne, I wish I hadn't asked.

[MC Gusto]

I hope that 24-19 swap actually occurs - odd it is yet to be confirmed

[Saintlester]

Trent Dumont will be an absolute gun. Hard as nails midfielder who in time will play very similar to the likes of Hanneberry. Would go him like a shot if still around.

[takeaway]

! would think that the 24-19 swap with Hawthorn will not happen. It would have been included in the new AFL draft listings after FA

[st.byron]

Saints website now lists us as having picks 3, 18, 24, 25 with all the FA compo picks accounted for.

Our powers that be have repeatedly stated we now have our goal of 3 picks in the first 20 since the Hawk Big Mac deal so one would think its on The AFL would have to be officially notified by the cllubs and the logical course of events occur. Hold your horses!

So maybe our 25 and 41, to get the pick 19 I reckon.
Use 24 for Bruce (will probably have to go that high a pick unfortunately, but looks a prospect)

Pick 59 for Delaney

Pick 77 for Curren upgrade.

So 3 live picks all done by pick 19, too easy Japanesey
