Post: # 1820609Post Sainter_Boy »

The Gold Coast Suns have confirmed Jack Martin will request a trade during trade period next month.

Details : https://www.afl.com.au/news/2019-08-27/ ... 6V0M4zzFco


Do you think we have a chance at getting him and if so what would it take to get him out of gold coast ?

He's worth a look, although I'd prefer Hill.

Hill is much better. less injury prone and more consistent. Should be our No1 Target

Martin will be cheaper. Say a second rounder (which we do not currently have in 2019, only in 2020)

Should be a priority. Far better than any of our current small forwards

Thought he was a HBF.

He's on big coin at GC.

Martin is not really a small forward

He'll go to whoever gives him the most coin - I've heard that he'd be interested in joining the Saints (not Carlton). It's whether we can do a deal to appease GC. Essendon have nothing to trade for him and have a tight salary cap thanks to $hiel.

Here's hoping Gubby is able to manouvre our first pick into GWS's two picks (11 and 13 or whatever it is)

Never averaged more than 20 disps in a season

Kicked 20 goals once.

Doesn’t provide much other than the fact that he was taken in the mini draft

Callum Ah Chee has also requested a trade from the GC. Pick 8 a few years back, very quick and skillful. If we can't get Martin I'd be happy to trade for Ah Chee instead.

We were right into him last year, possibly the year before, yet everyone else seems to be in the box seat according to the media. Says something IMO...Ah Chee could be worth a look though, I agree.

Ah Chee & Martin would both improve our list due to their ball using ability

Martin = overrated.

Let the other clubs battle to pay overs.


The Saints are under review, will it make any difference to the underachievers ?
