2017 Trade & FA Targets - The Last Supper #Ameetos

[Mowman]

Not sure he was around when all of them were picked up , Wayne Hughes I'm pretty sure has only been at the club for a couple of years

That's right

 

[Tommy Wigs]

Can we trade 7+8 for a premiership?

Need a third back though

 

[saint_]

Wayne Hughes must have a decent gig.

I know I'm more an optimist at times but we were only bad kicking for goal away from finals this season. We lost 2-3 games purely on our failure to convert in from of the big sticks.

I suppose it will come down to how much inprovement comes from the existing list - Gresh, Steele, Billings, Sinclair, Ross, Acres, Longer in particular - even Dunstan who started to show something in the second half of the year. Also Armitage, McCartin and Goddard are like new recruits, (well maybe not Paddy). Freeman would be a bonus even if he made the team and played a game!

We are building nicely and if we can show improvement then we are a viable choice. We also have the fact that Sloane's family are mad Saints supporters which might count for something - especially if he does come back to Victoria we can offer him the length of contract and the coin to make it worth his while. We will also be back at Moorabbin by then as well

He's also a ufa next year so theres no maching. We just have to offer him good coin to come and he's saints bound. Lucky we have a huge cap we need to fill next year.
Strap in for 12 months of sloane to stkilda bigfooty s**t squible.

Was a crap choice to put him on IMO

When does this poor man's paint drying observational period end?

Billings will kick 45 next year.

And perhaps then slow down a little after Rd 8. Still, 84 is a nice haul.

Question. Would we consider 7 or 8 for 12+20 from Brisbane?

 

[Sab22]

Need a third back though

For Tomlinson?

One thing to remember with our dual top 10 picks is that statistically we have a greater chance of nailing one of them then trading up and taking a single top 5 pick. It also allows us to take a risky bolter or hopeful slider alongside a more sensible choice.

What about the stats on getting a star with a top 3 pick compared to 7 and 8.

I don't think Brisbane would be stupid enough to pay a top ten pick for Weller.

What about two legends being paraded around on stage in Saints gear as top 10 picks.

 

[Longmembrey]

Soooo..... the net result of our trade period will be:

In: M Talia

Out: A Bains

 

[Saintos The ITK]

What if we give 8 and Weller for Freo pick 5 and they give 8 and Weller and Weller for Brisbane 2?

That's what I think many people on here want. The excitement of 2 picks. I'm happy with one star

Feel free to do the math.

I reckon you'd argue with your GPS...

 

[plugger66]

Feel free to do the math.

Couldn't be bothered but my guess is there are more stars in the lower picks

Think he has a few runs on the board - membrey Roberton Bruce Steele etc.

12 players have come to us from other clubs in the last four years.

So obviously SFA

What a load of crap.

Show me where anyone has said they prefer 2 picks over a star.

Watts and Tambling say hi.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

Billings will kick 45 next year.

And perhaps then slow down a little after Rd 8. Still, 84 is a nice haul.

His mate Sinclair will resent being shown up and kick 46 in the last half of the season.

 

[Joffaboy]

What if we give 8 and Weller for Freo pick 5 and they give 8 and Weller and Weller for Brisbane 2?

Well get used to it. We didnt use the picks on a player and havent traded up.

Are you really complaining about having pick 7 and 8

 

[joop]

Surely Mav has to get his folks to move to Melbourne, get Goddard in Wellers ear and we grab him cheap next year? He's no world beater but he's pretty much exactly what we are looking for, if he took his game to the next level would be massive
