Yes, and Hutchings? 🤷‍♂️

I don't even think the Saints would take 46 TBH.

Yep, surely the saints want more than 46 for him. Also 46 is worth quite a lot to us (as our only real selection in the draft).

I'd guess if it were us it would be for a future 3rd (ours or geelongs) - but I wouldn't have thought the Saints would have any interest in that...

unless the Masten to Freo rumors are true and he can be the steak knives now (prior to having choice as a DFA). (i.e. 3-way trade as part of the Hill trade)
 
That's probably overs i think.

One or the other might be enough.

Unless it's 'hypothetically' something like Geelongs future 3rd + 45 for Acres + Future 4th?

I think St Kilda might ask for that, given he's contracted. 46 is more valuable to us as our first hand in the draft, so it probably is overs.

St Kilda might consider giving him away for cheap to clear some salary cap. They still have to get Zac Jones.

What you suggested would be more fair though.

I wouldn't give 46 for Acres and miss out on a potential Worpel. He'd probably win our WAFL B&F though.

I think Worpel is the exception, rather than the rule. TBH I think we're less likely to get someone better than Acres with that pick.

I don’t think they’ll take it either

Oh and I don’t have Hutchings in my best 22
 
If we could fit him into the salary cap and St Kilda are willing to let him go i'd happily pay 46+geelongs future 3rd. If you then look at all of our lines on the field we have great depth coverage. Imagine along the lines of having Hutchings, Acres and Ah Chee all pushing our mids to perform at their absolute best.
 
Sydney have let Darcy Cameron head off to Collingwood for pick 56 and a late one back.

Wouldn't we have been in the frame for a young ruckman with a couple of years in the system?

Apparently wanted to be traded to a Victorian club

If you give me a choice of Ben Sokol or Acres, I know who I'm taking.
 
Who would you have take Hutchings' spot?

At the moment I have IN: Kelly, Cameron OUT: Masten, Rioli so Hutch is still best 22 for mine.

Kelly, Yeo, Shuey, gaff, sheed and redden all ahead of him in the midfield

Hutchings fighting with Cameron, Petruccelle and hopefully Venables for the last 2 forward spots.

Acres would provide depth for our weakest area of the ground, though. Even though we have Kelly, we're still relying on a lot of youngsters to be our midfield depth.

Kelly deal looking better and better.
Or if we'd held off for a few days we may have got a better deal? Im very happy to have kelly at the club but that was always going to be the outcome one way or another. Keeping one of those second rounders wouldve been nice

So many ruckmen being traded around. Surely there are some half decent ones lurking around in Aus somewhere.
Do we need one? We’ve got NicNat, Hickey, Vardy and a developing Williams with Brooksby a chance of staying and Allen able to play as the backup.
 
Relax Guys Acres on arrival is heading down the Kwinana Freeway to **** Burn.

That’s the last minute hitch in the Hill trade.

Mediocre player joining a mediocre Club.

Perfecto.
 
this.

If someone can show me the evidence to how being "tough traders" leads to premierships I'm all ears
Last year Essendon and Dodoro played hardball with the Shiel trade to the point it went to the last minutes of the trade period and they still ended up paying top dollar. This year, no-one has nominated to go to Essendon.

Not a coincidence, IMO.

This.

Maybe a rookie pick at best.
