We will draft 4. Ferguson stays rookie one mOre year as he is not counted. At least One of the 40 picks on hartigan and/or Tighe or both. 25/26 on best avail. Remember hartigan and tighe were highly rated youngsters expected to be drafted . Both Only 20. Both have grown and shown they are good at vf...

well.. Tighe did not make state squads... but sure, have a close look at both of them.... both young.... KPDs... I would have no problem getting both on our list, one as a rookie.. I dont know the chances of other clubs grabbing them, but weigh that up....

Seriously, Hartigan made the VFL rep squad as a 20 year old full back. He will be bigger bodied after another pre-season. He will play next year as a 21 year old. That is tracking well for a KPD. Taller than Darren Glass.

Grab him with pick 44. Give him a chance. Cannot hurt.

Hartigan is the best *young* KPD in the VFL/AFL/SANFL. Only 20 or so.... will get bigger with another pre-season and can already play on the big boys.
WE dont need to use him on the mobile types....
I say get him....

Just giving away too much height in some match ups, ends up giving away free kicks. not his fault. Could have a great season, but only if he does not have to play on 195cm+ types

Farren Ray is best 22 IMO. wont delist him

TDL?
God!. and North are getting Gysberts for Pederson!
We could get him for Ray, even if it means moving one of our 40 something picks down, I say it is worth it!
Young player who could replace Cripps! Same age!

Probably not any inside source, but something like this: Hooker & Cripps to West Coast, Brown to St Kilda and Pick 26 to Essendon. seems most logical right now.... I would hope involving WC pick 41 also coming back to saints Essendon probably wont deal Hooker at less than 26... but WC cant possi...

Best key defender I the VFL by most judges. Is he on Carlton's list?

Hooker would be a good outcome IMO
Don't know why it is a three way trade though.
We just get a pick for cripps then trade a pick (hopefully the same pick) for hooker

Kosi does not play
Wilkes is back up and plays half the games
Hopefully we can rest Roo periodically so he does not carry niggles

FB Gwilt, Simpkin, Geary
HB Gram, Fisher, Dempster
C Gilbert, Hayes, Montagna
HF Siposs, Riewoldt, Saad
FF Milne, Lee, Stanley
R McEvoy, Dal Santo, Armitage
IC Steven, Curren, Hickey, Schneider
E Milera, Newnes, Wilkes, Dunell

I cant see what Cripps has to do with it really.... the question is really, do we offer 26 for Brown?
It seems we offered 37 and were knocked back....
So will they knock back 26?
Will we offer it?

It is clearly they will offer only 40s for cripps

More precisely
In: Lee and Hickey + 25 + 26 + 46 + 47

Out: Goddard + 12 + 37 +57

What the St Kilda brains trust has decided is that Hickey in terms of value to the team can be equated with Brendan Goddard because that is the compensatory pick we've used to get him. Not quite... we also get pick 26 for 37 upgrade and pick 47 for 57 upgrade... So, time will tell whether we use 26...

Ok, we have a ruck.. if Ray wants to go, let's use Ray to get Gysberts... I would be happy with Ray +26 for Gysberts + 30s-40s.... Gysberts is young and good.... better than rolling the dice in the draft IMO

Hickey is worth more than Brown... no way Brown is worth 25, let alone Cripps + 25...

25 for Hickey? Yes.. young Ruck who could be a star.. more chance of being good than an 18 year.. pick 25 on youngsters is always a bit of a lottery

Seriously doesn't the club give advice about this sort of thing? So obviously a scam from get go.

Curren is ahead of Stevens. Will step up

I think someone over 30... you would think hard...
But we already are looking to bring in a key defender... that is why they will have rejected it
We would be scewed down back

If Dennis-lane is testing with us I agree it must indicate Milera to port. Port have a lot of 2nd rounders. 2 extras from FA compo and something from North for Jacobs. Saints may see D-L as a replacement with an upgrade of draft Order via port. They would only do it if they think they need that lowe...

Saad Roo Sipposs
Stanley Lee Milne

Wilkes - depth
Kosi - retire

I recon that forward line would really stretch teams... all mobile, 4 talls

this is ridiculous. Just rigging the draw due to the fact that the competition is so uneven.

Looks like he dOminated the wafl at 19. Will be picked up relatively early. I hope by us. Less risky than an 18 year old who has only been tested against juniors
