Free Agency Zaine Cordy [Joins St Kilda as UFA]

[bird_man]

I don't mind it

Will more than likely be playing VFL unless we have injuries but as long as he's happy to be there as a back up

You’d think if he’s happy just being backup he’d stay put

Was he offered a contract?

 

[weltschmerz]

Was he offered a contract?

Yeah we put two years on the table

 

[bird_man]

Yeah we put two years on the table

Fair enough.

Maybe he sees himself more likely to breaking into our backline, but I can't see who's spot he would take.

 

[The Inbetweener]

Yeah for sure. With Jones in and Naughton/ Darcy likely to play defence, he’s not in our best 22

 

[Just Watching]

Has he gone?

Yep. Won't be at the dogs.

 

[Foxman98]

Zaine a manager is the MVP of the trade period getting him a 3 year deal

Go well Zaine.

Zaine Cordy > Nick Riewoldt.

Go well Zaine.

I thought he was primarily a defender. Can he play either end?

 

[Foxman98]

I thought he was primarily a defender. Can he play either end?

He can very much pretend to play at either end

 

[Bald]

I thought he was primarily a defender. Can he play either end?

He can try at either end.

You’ve got yourself another Shaun McKernan there mate.

 

[Saintscomemarchingin]

Lewis Mexican for me. Not Cordy or Hartigan.

 

[dazzledavey36]

My god...

It's like St Kilda will never learn when they continue to pick up spuds like Cordy.

 

[I Love Lamb]

Wonder if this move will reopen Tomlinson talks

 

[Taylor]

Dogs are in a bit of a pinch here if they care about the very late compensation pick, which I suspect they don't.

Can't imagine we'd get one as it'd get wiped out by Jones.

 

[Taylor]

Can't imagine we'd get one as it'd get wiped out by Jones.

Exactly, but there's a justice to it given that player is taking his spot.

The pick that would be for Cordy effectively buys Jones, nil all draw, except on field where I think Jones' last AFL performances were far above Cordy's.

... he has been out for a while though, but let's be optimistic.

 

[Taylor]

Having thought about this a bit more I don't think the Dogs had a chance to trade for Jones since he was uniquely removed from Carltons list. There might be a case for them to push with the AFL to get compensation from Cordy.

It will be very late regardless and that pick traded for Jones may well have been better than the compensation but process is process

 

[Psicosis]

Is this not the most St Kilda move ever?

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Is this not the most St Kilda move ever?

They just need to offer Plowman or Dow a 3 year deal.

 

[jimmytigs]

surely we are better off taking a punt on mcasey from the crows,we are not winning the flag next year,but the age of mcasey & potential of a high draft pick that he was,at least has him in a realistic time frame for when we might contest

Glass houses...

What are you hearing about the Clark move? Or have those voices in your head gone quiet?
