Kelly is not worth 2 first round picks

Especially if he nominates the CFC as preferred destination, our 1st rounder will suffice as it we'll be pitch 2 or 3.
Kelly is an an elite young talent, any club would chase him and dream.
Source for KPF next year, rich in quality talls in the top ten. King brothers and a few more and our own Ben Silvangi.
2020 the Mighty Blues will rule supreme.
 
Reactions.. we were in the box seat to land Fyfe right?

Massive war chest. From what I've heard it will be used in the following years though.
Gotta use some of it soon, can only bank it for a couple of years. Also the last of the silly long contracts for older guys about to expire.

If Gibbs goes, who are we going to pay to reach 95%? A lot of our good kids have already had extensions.

Too early to tell; I'd like to see the Irish lads have a good run of say 10 consecutive senior games before I make a call. That said, Pittard has been in the system seven years with one standout season (2016) to show for it. Either side of that he's given Port supporters heartburn. I've seen most of his games at Adelaide Oval from a good vantage point. As a dispassionate observer, I concur with Power supporters summation of his limitations - poor disposal and decision making. He was dropped earlier this year and has been serviceable, at best, since.

Well he must doing something right, prior to this year he has played 22, 20 and 25 in the last 3 years. Maybe we should ask the Port supporters what they think about a straight swap for Byrne, their response may surprise you

Seems like the only players being mentioned on our board that are worthwhile are guys like Kelly, Hopper and Lynch, all the rest seem like hacks to most here. Sure SOS will surprise many again come this trade/draft period

Like I said, Hinkley plays favourites and is stubborn. Not sure asking Power supporters about Byrne would prove anything. Read the posts about Pittard on the Power board and you'll get the picture. Sit amongst them and the message will be crystal clear. They are MORE than happy to lose him to FA if it nets them a 2nd rounder. If getting Pittard dilutes a FA compo we get for say Casboult, then we're out of pocket. If that's not convincing you let's call it a draw. :thumbsu:

I too have enjoyed pleasant dreams of Kelly wearing #7 in the navy blue.

J(oe) Kelly, a compact wing, played 137 games for the Blues between 1926-1934 in.....#7.

Make it happen.... Again.

Find it amazing that people say "no" to players at other clubs, that are best 22 and their sides will play finals. Especially given where we sit, staggering
Yep I find that staggering as well..........when you genuinely follow footy for the love of it, surely you can see good players at other clubs as well as your own players limitations.........
 
If Cripps wanted to go back to WA, would he be worth 2 first round picks

Yes because Cripps can influence games whereas i see Kelly an elite and polish player. Shiel will be the one that is worth 2 first round picks

Trelaor not worth 2 first rds and pies are suffering from it
