Would be ok as long it's not our 1st round pick!

Really dont rate this kid...

If he comes for free, as in similar to the King deal last year, then I guess he is an upgrade on fiora, but all in all, he hasnt got much going for him...

Amazing pace. Little else.

Better than Kane Tenace.

That just about sums him up IMO.

Bulldogs mate of mine reckons Ray for Kosi would be a fair deal. :roll:

IMO Ray for a draft pick outside the top 30 is a far better idea than any other rumour I've read on here in the past few days (apart from getting Cousins in the PSD, of course: which is no longer just a rumour).

lol thanks and I didn't mean for it to come across as matter of fact as it did... was in a rush to be the 1st 8-)

I don't rate the kid personally... a pick outside the 30s sounds about right

No dramas :-)

I'm sure the Doggies will be talking up that he's a Top 10 draftee...but Adam Thomson went for 42 and originally picked at 12

Yes a very pacy kid...3rd rounder tops tho thanks unless they throw in Higgins 8-)

Not sure if this a huge win for us... Ray is an average player, and we've given up a decent pick to get an average player and an average pick.

Dont know if im happy or unhappy with it to be honest.

It amuses me... no, actually it sh1ts me to tears that when we discuss trading one of our own GOP's... people carry on that they'll tear us a new one with their new club. So don't trade them cause they'll hurt us as their new club magically unlocks their massive upside and unrealized potential.

YET, when another player get's traded to us... they are crap and will remain crap. :roll:

What's good for the goose is good for the gander IMO. Maybe a change of club and coach may just bring out his best. :idea:

Welcome Ray, and best of luck with the Saints.


The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.

Yep, spot on. Ray has pace, footskills - something we don't have in abundance. Got him relatively cheaply to.

What a waste we have traded a good pick for a marginal player and a nothing pick.

Marginal player?


he is quick, just what we need

He played at the dogs in a team better than ours


he averaged 19.8 possessions in 12 games this year with 2.6 tackles


we could use that at Stkilda

Forgive my ignorance...

Did we give them pick 31 or the other way around?
