I always love a bit of re writing of history, sure Mitchel won a Brownlow after leaving us, but at the time of the trade he was a promising midfielder who had played 65 games over 5 years and was ranked as our fourth best midfielder.
Pick 14 was reasonable value for what he was rated at the time.
Just the same as someone like Jones is only worth a very late first or early second round pick at present.
If St Kilda gets more out of him and that standing improves, good on them and their development work.

Yah, ancient history.. What was untrue?
Righto..flawed ranking system. it was never reasonable.
Our list management has been shite and our drafting really no better.
At least they're trying to rectify the drafting by getting Dalrymple in, but yes looking forward to lauding the Saints.
