It was a fair deal imo. We get a experience leader for a young team, they picks which can be used for future trades.
From the trade aspect it seems eminently fair on both sides. But hey, it's a lot of coin to be throwing at a bloke who has struggled to get himself 100pc physically for quite a while now. Particularly come 2021, 2022, can see Saints fans saying " Sheesh, are we really paying this guy 800 large a year".

I think we'll front load it is as much as we can, so hopefully by the time he hits those years he won't be on as much. His very likely being significantly overpaid for the last couple years of his contract though.
Sorry I may have misread the reported arrangement, but thought he was to get 800 in each of the first 4 years and a significantly lesser amount in the final year.

It is correct that if he triggers his 5th year it won't be on huge money.
The 4 years are 800k average. We have been from loading contracts to get to 95% for the last few years so I would say we'll be paying Hannebery the majority of his contract in his first couple of years.

Arguably the worst trade of the modern era.

The trade is poor, it’s the contract that’s terrible.

He's actually got on the field though and looked good at Port, dan is injured again and has 15 games at the saints and looked done at Sydney before the trade.

Yeah truly shocking but not imo 'modern era'
Worst trade ever?
That's easy. Pick 16 and 46 for Stephen O'Reilly who played 12 games for you. AND you had to pay him illegally outside the cap. AND he blew the whistle on you. AND you had to pay a fine. AND you got kicked out of the draft and had to recruit hacks. AND it meant that your mulit-million investment in Denis Pagan was a waste because he had no players.
Stephen O'Reilly for - Pick 16, pick 46, $1m fine, pick 1, 2, 17 and 33 in the 2003 draft, pick 1 in the 2003 PSD, 1st and 2nd round picks in the 2004 draft.
I reckon that would have the Hanners trade covered by a couple of laps of Flemington, then a trip down the highway for a run round Caulfield, before a backtrack to run the length of the Moone Valley straight.
The only positive is that it allowed us to hit the salary cap minimum…..

Not even the worst trade of that trade period. Collingwood and Beams get that honour.
Not really. St Kilda didn't give up a lot in the trade and it not like they have been losing players because of a tight salary cap since.
Lachie Weller trade made zero sense at the time and looks just as bad now.

It depends on how highly you weight cap versus draft picks. The Beams trade had potential. He was a gun on a relatively small income. Hannebery had no chance of being worth close to the rumoured salary. It's worth looking into who's good mates with Hannebery's dad.

Saints could afford the cap space at the time.
Beams was two first round picks.
It was clearly the worse of the two
