That values Stephenson as a pick 37 or so.. they want alot more than that for a pick 6 just a few years ago

At about #15

 

[Stickitupthem]

We stand firm....we don’t need to give him pick 8 ( or whatever it ends up being ) because we can take him in the draft for the same pick.
It’s nonsensical to deal with Dodo for our first pick. I must be living on a different planet.
I will say it again....top 10 picks or thereabouts are a very valuable asset that you don’t throw away unnecessarily. Other teams are working out how to upgrade into the top 10 but we’ll just gift it to Dodo....spare me please

Hope your right and we have the balls to make a statement and still let Saad know we value him highly and can’t let this dickhead dictate I think sos would tip his hat if we went down that road

 

[Weitbricks]

Does the Saints board have an "Opposition posters say the strangest things" thread?

If so, this one is going to give them a good laugh.

Really with everything that’s happened in 2020 and you consider this strange..

 

[katmanblue]

he's a flake............he'd be getting mcgovern treatment from the supporters after a month..............

So if we put him with some chips.
Maybe add salt, vinegar and a pickled onion.

 

[thylacine60]

you idiot - yes........

 

[Stamos]

Dunstan would fit in with the ITK poster who said we’ll be grabbing some B grade midfield depth.

B grade?

 

[passmark]

B grade?

B+?

That better be chicken salt!

Dunstan a C grader on a very good day.

 

[Stickitupthem]

B grade?

C - grade max

 

[Stefchook]

B+?

B-----?

 

[passmark]

Dunstan a C grader on a very good day.

I’m not sure C graders exist. They’re delisted pretty quick.
Lists can’t carry them.

 

[Jeremias]

He really isnt. he's borderline in the 22.

Has played 80 out of a possible 83 games since being drafted.

We get that you don't rate him, but clearly there is nothing borderline about his place in our best side at all.

 

[reubs1066]

Few on the list now. Betts, Jones, Martin, Williams, Sammo. Maybe Narkle too if we can nab him.

Two in the Womens squad too I think. Not sure.

Aren't the Curnow lads part indigenous?

 

[Aphrodite]

No.

my point exactly.

 

[Mr_Plow]

Would like to think that we are past the stage in our rebuild where recruiting C grade depth is a thing.

Depth should now be guys that are on our list that we have drafted. It's a cyclical process, delist players, recruit good ones, others become fringe depth, and so forth.

 

[thebluenewdeal]

Would rather re-sign Kennedy

 

[ferrisb]

Stephenson's basically a tall winger with absolutely no game sense for the position, so they play him off the flank up forward instead, and he's been that way since before he was drafted. You use him as a general forward, and for now at least, nothing else.

We can't even get our forwards to kick 38 goals in a season, let alone a repurposed winger...

Dunstan would be a strange choice indeed. What would it say for the likes of Dow and Stocker? That we’ve given up on them already? He’s C grade at best...

 

[Mondyboy]

Agreed. Dow in particular. If we’re not trading him then he has to play. Not to say that he’s in our top 22, but he has to be first cab of the rank if there’s an injury. It’s his fourth year.

 

[carlton_99]

Yep agree don't get why we would be after Dunstan. Just a waste of a spot. Not in our best 22 and in terms of depth I'd rather Dow and co

 

[The Dochs in]

I think the media struggle comprehending front loaded contracts when players change clubs.

If this is in relation to Williams, we can’t have front loaded his contract. As a RFA his contract has to be the same payment amount for the life of the contract. I suspect we have in fact paid more then originally speculated on here

 

[katmanblue]

He is nowhere top 12!

Top 45 for sure

 

[rp84]

I wouldn't trade marchbank for anything less than a first rounder.

I think you have forgotten how good he is.

Easy to do when he as barely kicked a football in years.

Huge if we can get him sorted.
