Cost us nothing, surely we can get 2-3 years out of him, (and Gardiner ???), which gives the recruiting dept. that time to find young replacements for future teams.

in 08, dont see king playing there.
And yet they chose him for the GF over Blake ... can't have been that bad. And he played well too.

whoopee

now we have three ruckmen with no durability

Gardiner
King
Brooks


We will still probably go into games with Rix number one and Blake for back up

King has only left the Cats as the Cats wanted to keep Blake for the future.....If King had stayed Blake would have walked.

In 2008 King will be better than Blake.


Over the next 10 years though Blake has greater currency.

King will do us very nicely for 2 to 3 years.

Just think two of the clubs we generally despise have gifted us experienced finals players.

Robert Warnock wasnt available and would you give pick 9 for Wood? Most here wouldnt.

If a star ruckman goes in the 2007 draft with pick #74 (Saints 5th rounder or 4th pick - after the Schneider deal - that we likely won't see used now) or later, we can guarentee that through thousands of posts on the subject, Barks won't let anyone forget it.

Kudos.

the last tine we gave up a low draft pick for a "promising young ruckman who was 3rd or 4th in line" at his original club we got Brooks

I'm glad we didnt give up a low pick to get wood - he is unproven.

even if King doesnt play a game we lost nothing in giving up pick 90.

I cant see the downside of this deal.

I'm rapt to have him on board. At least he can also play as a forward target!! Promising times ahead for 08! Good stuff Saints!

The question is, where's the downside.

FFS, he's taking Phil Raymond's spot on the list.


That's got to be a bloody improvement.


They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.
