Bluemour Melting Pot XXI - Like seriously, the polar ice caps have got nothing on us

[The Flying Doormat]

Seeing how the ITK's get hassled, it wouldn't surprise me if B70 be feeling like...

subtle

 

[Just Kreuzing]

I don't get the Howard trade at all. Makes less sense than Dees trading Frost.

Agree, he must of really wanted out for whatever reason and pushed it himself.

 

[Jabba73]

Commiserations to the new Cows coach ‘Stevie’ Nicks.

Best of luck to you trying to sort out that mess

 

[Heres Waite]

The city of Adelaide is self-combusting, between the melts from Port Adelaide (Howard) and Crows (Greenwood) supporters.

 

[KoteX]

So how do they get Hill ? ... with less than initially offered ? ...

So,,,

Port adel trade their pick 10, Ryder and Dougal to the saints.

In return, saints give port picks 12&18

Saints then trade pick 10 to Freo for Hill and also give next years first round.

 

[Blues90]

By the end of the draft gold coast will already have a better just less experienced team than Adelaide

 

[Canyouhearthedrums]

Port must be in serious salary cap strain?

St Kilda receives: Paddy Ryder, Dougal Howard, current pick No.10, future fourth-round pick

Port receives: current pick No.12, current pick No.18, future third-round pick


That deal is insane for Saints.

Cost them pick 6 (essentially) and a future third for 2 best 22 players and pick 10....

Wait...So if we equate pick 10/12 as being broadly the same thing...Then the Saints got Ryder and Howard for 18 and a downgrade from 3rd to 4th rounds? Not bad, even if Ryder is past it.

 

[mochacinolatte]

I could see the following trade going down.

First Trade
Geelong trade Pick 14 + 37
St Kilda trade Pick 10

Second Trade
St Kilda trade Pick 37
Sydney trade Zak Jones

Third Trade
Sydney trade Papley + Pick 37
Carlton Pick 9

 

[PumpyChowdown]

Offer a future 3rd for Wines. Port will jump at that the way they're trading.

 

[DamoESP]

Just went for a look. Wowsers!

Dont blame them, not sure what Port are doing with that Saints trade.

Ryder might play only 2 more years. It isn't that bad

Polson steak knives

 

[jj1978]

Kochie this aint the stock market... they be seriously stuffed for the next 3-5 years! You don't destroy your list to finish bottom to justify sacking a coach!

 

[bigm386]

I really rate Dougal to be honest. It looks like a fire sale at Port.

 

[Matty411]

That Future First and change all of a sudden looks like it could be an option if the mood in Alberton continues to simmer like it is.

 

[mochacinolatte]

I really rate Dougal to be honest. It looks like a fire sale at Port.

His 2018 season was pretty damn good. Thought he will become another Harris Andrews they way he was travelling.

 

[Sector 7G]

I think Port people are going just a little over the top on this one.
The real question will be can Howard play and then Port people will have to see what they will pick-up via the draft.

Really seems as though they're topping up on young talent and having a mini-rebuild of their own.

Howard was their young talent though

 

[bigm386]

His 2018 season was pretty damn good. Thought he will become another Harris Andrews they way he was travelling.

I think his game was hurt when Burton came over from the Hawks.

 

[ferrisb]

heard Tom Silvagni kicked 8 goals in a quarter while playing as full back*.

*Then the coach dragged him for kicking the wrong way.

The Full Back of the Century once kicked 10 goals against Fitzroy...

... Just saying

 

[Blue__Balls]

No i know becaue there a ALOT of good academy kids in that draft gonna push it right back

That's not necessarily how it works.

Kid gets bid on at 20

Club matches with Picks 30, 40 and 50.

Pick 30 moves up to 20 - pushes picks 21-29 back one spot each. No change for later picks.

Picks 40 and 50 move to the back of the draft. Picks 41-49 move up one spot, Picks 51+ move up two spots.

 

[mochacinolatte]

Kane Cornes "Port Adelaide have been stitched up."

 

[I bleed Blue]

So saints turned pick 6 into 10, Howard and Ryder.

Good effort.

 

[Blues90]

The Full Back of the Century once kicked 10 goals against Fitzroy...

... Just saying

To be fair back then Luke Reynalds could kick 10 against fitzroy

 

[Blues90]

I hope StKilda havent gone all out they need salary cap space for their elit.... never mind

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

So how do they get Hill ? ... with less than initially offered ? ...

Pick 10 and future 1st round pick for Hill is what i have seen reported elsewhere.
