Brown and Higgins for one late 1st round pick?
That is insulting.
That's 2 1sts and a (likely) upgrade of 2nd rounder. That's better.Perhaps if Higgins was 28 & Brown had just come off a 60+ goal year. In reality, Higgins is 30+ and Brown has come off a really poor season.
Saints first rounder is a good start, but I imagine we’d look at a couple sweeteners in there like:
North Trade: Brown, Higgins, 2021 Second Rounder
St Kilda Trade: 2020 Pick 14, 2021 First Rounder, 2021 Second Rounder
Upgrade our 2nd to their 1st next year (they would expect to be pushing top 4 and for us to be favourites for the spoon), throw in their 2021 2nd as a sweetener.
I don’t think that’s insulting at all.
TBH I dont think it will be that high but even pick 14 means that we take mcdonald or whatever tall forward is best and then load up on midfielders with the rest of our early picks. Instant replacement for brown depending on our needs and whatever trades we make. Easy 3 picks inside first round would be HUGE for the club and rebuild.Perhaps if Higgins was 28 & Brown had just come off a 60+ goal year.

Like I know teams dont fully rebuild in 1 year but if we nail all of those picks we'll be looking really good.looks like it, with 3 picks in the 20s, 2 of them could get into a first....
3 first rounders.....hmmm
If they can get us another pick in the 20s, this year or next, I think that will get it close
ryder retiring and Marshall #1 ruck opens up a spot in the forward line for a tall. I mean there apparently in talks so they might want him.lol zero chance of Brown going to St Kilda... they simply don't need him.
They have no issues hitting the scoreboard, 5th in the league for marks inside and the best goal to behind ratio.
Not to mention they'd prefer to develop King... he'll beome a very similar player to Brown.
They only place Brown is going is Collingwood... as a Mason Cox upgrade. Otherwise he's staying.
You know what it is? Brown and Higgins for 14 and Billings.. thats as fair a trade as you’ll getPerhaps if Higgins was 28 & Brown had just come off a 60+ goal year. In reality, Higgins is 30+ and Brown has come off a really poor season.

I’m not interested in making it easy for Higgins to get to Geelong. If Saints are keen, and combining him and Brown gets us a better deal, then that’s my preference.
If Geelong want Higgins they have to come to the party.
This will really heat up as sides start getting eliminated from finals.
Like I know teams dont fully rebuild in 1 year but if we nail all of those picks we'll be looking really good.
... And you know all about whats in a good batchJust stay consistent as the 2016 - now drafting hit rate, a bit better would be exceptional. In each of the draft we did over the last few years, we got at least 3 good players from each batch.

Last couple of years have been pretty goodJust stay consistent as the 2016 - now drafting hit rate, a bit better would be exceptional. In each of the draft we did over the last few years, we got at least 3 good players from each batch.
No - Polec may come into calculations then - in fact I am surprised its not Polec being talked about.So Brown on his own would be pick 14?
Brown is 100% worth at least a late first round pick, or an early first rounder if swapped with our 2nd rounder.So Brown on his own would be pick 14?

Higgo to the Saints just doesn't seem to fit at all - I can accept Higgo to Geelong given his background and attempts to get there last year but Saints - weird.
The media is workingBrown is 100% worth at least a late first round pick, or an early first rounder if swapped with our 2nd rounder.
