So what strikes me out of the timing of this announcement, other than elation is did some mystery star say "I want to come to the Sun's, but I need evidence that these young super stars are going to stay." Sun's relay to King that, say Crouch, is coming if U sign but U got to do it before the trade period ends. King is like we'll I was going to sign anyway, let's do it now.

Amazing news. I always thought extending two of the three (Rankine, Lukosius, King) would be a massive win for us, given the constant negative narrative out of Victoria.

But. If Lukosius extends too, how good is the clear air for 2020? Enables us to commit to the plan without distraction. Perhaps the first year in many without a disastrous contact situation hanging over our heads.
And all the 2010-17 deadwood cleaned
 
Absolutely awesome news! To do it now and not have to deal with 12months of speculation is a credit to all parties involved.

Can build a forward line around King and Rankine (and maybe Lukosius?) with Anderson starting there as well.

Exciting times to bring people (back) to this board!

Also loving the #lilcoch support. Don’t see enough of it these days IMO.

The single biggest thing to happen to this club in years.
Special thanks to the Melbourne media grubs too for their continued negativity and allowing us a nice package of priority picks, academy sweeteners and more.
It also shows Rowell & Anderson that the future is really bright.
Big thumbs up to the club today.
 
Congratulations on signing Ben. I don't think St kilda club officials have been out of line with their comments. When speaking to the media you have to look confident and say what makes your club look good. Unfortunately you are a smaller/new club and with what has happened in the past with player retention it sounded pretty bad. i am sure the big clubs in Melbourne would of said the same thing. Our supporters (me included) on the other hand were pretty arrogant about him coming back in next years trade period. I am sure saints will have another crack in a couple of years and hopefully we are competing for finals by then. But hats off to your football department for turning your club environment and culture around. Because after speaking to Jack Scrimshaws sister it sounded like it was a mess. Maybe you guys are onto some thing now.

Yeah wouldn't take anything that family says at face value.

Don't let the #VICBIAS fool you, We've cleaned out the deadwood and we're building something exciting here.
 
Murmurs of Tom Phillips being available at Collingwood.

High unlikely to want to come North but would give us more outside run and linking if truly gettable

Id be interested at looking at Rupert Wills from Collingwood
 
Huge congratulations. Gives you a forward line to really build around now with Rankine and hopefully 2MP has just had an off year and can push forward after a big preseason. Delighted for you - add a couple of classy mids with 1 and 2 this year and the next few years start to look up! Really pleased for you all who have stuck fat with the club 👍
 
Fantastic news for you guys. The Saints have been utterly deplorable with their attitude and public comments, of it was in reverse there would be widespread condemnation. Let's hope gubby can wreck their salary cap in time to get max to the suns. It's not much time but if anyone can do it it's him
