So you guys didnt get pick 5 right? 15 and 18 isnt too different from 13 and a something assuming we eventually settled on it.
13 and 21ish based on points - your second pick falls 100 short. But if he holds firm that'd be the comparative deal. Pick 5 is actually less again.

Hawks deal: 2097pts
13 & 24: 1997pts
5: 1878

Lets not make it childish kids, cause we arent sweating on carlisle.... you guys are losing here by losing a known quantity ... not us. We dont value him at pick 5... thats not greed... its what we value him at.

But if we are making it childish.... how good was our record breaking win this year :D

Carlisle a known quantity? The bloke is an enigma. Can play like Wayne Carey one week and Courtney Johns the next

"Breaking: Jake Carlisle has told Hawks he will play there, if Saints can't do deal (No.5). Hawks have green light. More @superfooty"


Jakey boy you absolute superstar.

People ought to remember how good he has been to us before they start with the usual drivel at games when we play his new team.

I completely understand the Saints board being happy to keep 5. Not sure I understand them savaging Carlisle - he's agreed to go to Hawthorn if a deal can't get done with St. Kilda. People spend so much time complaining about players holding clubs for ransom, and now it's supposed to be criminal that a player would go elsewhere (even after nominating) instead of running to the draft? Might be different if something better had been offered (not even saying pick 5, just something better than the Saints' first offer), but it hadn't.

What is a better result? Pick 5 or 15 & 18?

You back you recruiters to get 250 game players in the first round.

For 5 to be worth more than 15 and 18 to a team that has maybe 6 spots genuinely up for grabs in the next 24 months we'd be banking on one of those anomalies to occur to end up with a Fyfe/Bontempelli/Dangerfield/Buddy at 5 in order for it to be more valuable.

I'm not sure a club ever really knows when it has one of those champion players. A lot of it comes down to luck.

Guys, I have a brilliant idea.

Take 15 + 18. Give Brisbane 18 and whatever else they want (maybe 25) for... Aish! Boom.

We have pick 4, 15, 23, Aish and Leuenberger.

Oh and we beg Brisbane not to match and we'll do the trade.

IN: pick 15, Aish and Leuenberger
OUT: pick 25, Melksham and Carlilse. #winning
