Jake Carlisle Updates

[gringo2011]

He's got a fair sized melon old Jake, he'd give Tom Simpkin a run for his money.

So basically....no one knows what he did for the year fitness wise

He would have had a fitness plan as well as rehab from surgery

Looks like its working

 

[Mowman]

From when he had his surgery to when he got back from trip, he hadn't done any training was hoping to smash it as soon he got back from his trip.

Who cares. I hope he did nothing and refreshed his batteries, he's got plenty of time to get fit before the rest of the boys start pre season.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Who cares?
Me...why I asked

I would've started a preseason in July
Just to prove a point come round one

He needs a protein drink shaker to get the Hemmsey arm shake going

Yeah this break will be the refresher he needs to extend his career. Making our 4 peat just that bit more likely .
( For the record i hate the terms 3peat and especially 4peat ).

 

[PoppedCorn]

I hope he is itching like * to get going at a pre season.
Even though he has been out for a year I'm expecting big things rather quickly
Whether that's right of me or not im not sure...maybe I wanna see the trade justified

Hopefully he thinks he has a lot to prove

We got Jake Carlisle for free.

We got Jake Carlisle for free.

Too true.

And although I rate Trout, having K.Langford so high up on our 2014 list concerned me a little. Who knows, we could have cooked the pick on Francis and walked away from the draft/trade with one stud in B.White.. and that's it.

 

[PoppedCorn]

If losing pick 5 is free then sure

Granted we got a 40 odd back

We got 14 back mate, and that landed us Jade Gresham who has looked more promising than the guy taken at pick 5.

Yep but don't tell Essendon supporters they reckon they shafted us

So true.
Hit the Jackpot with Gresh.
Carlisle is the steaknives

It's crazy how the football world just can't manage to grasp this! I guess "St Kilda got shafted by Essendon" is a more popular story to tell - and you never let the facts get in the way of a good story

Carlisle is the steaknives

Or the jakeknives

GO JAKE THE STEAK!

If you want a laugh, go back and find all the killer trades that the good teams made to win the "Trade Week Trophy".




What? There is no prize for trade week? Really?

They won the chest beating contest but we made the best of it by picking a gun and off-setting them getting the upper hand.

We also gave up 24, which often gets forgotten. Sure we can say we got Gresh with 5 (if we were gonna take him there) but that would mean we got Jake for 24.

Without trading we were going to take Gresh at 5 and White at 24*.

So the Jakester was a freeeeeeeebie


* if you believe the story
** I believe the story
*** Why not believe the story?

 

[Ekomaira]

I can't believe there's still people who can't comprehend the trade!

 

[SaintsSeptember]

I simples terms we can say:
First round pick = first round pick.
We paid second round pick for Carlisle = good deal.
We got player we wanted for 2nd round in 3rd round. Yay
We got father sun pick ( worth at least an early 3rd round pick ) late in the 3rd round. Yay.

All good .

Shut up whingers.

Granted
But we still gave up pick 5
Happy with Gresham tho
At last we have a kid that looks like he will make it to A+ status.

How did the 14 come about again?
From swans wasn't it?? In the 3 way?

Yes sorry for not following trade week and memorizing drafts and numbers like a 12 year old reading Harry Potter
