Traded Josh Bruce [traded to Western Bulldogs for #32 and #51]

[citizen-erased]

Would be a good move by Bombers to get Bruce if Daniher leaves gives them a genuine forward who actually can get on the park...

kind of meant that if Bruce is worth 12 we may yet just get 4 and 8 for Daniher.

Not sure Bruce is enough of a point of difference to McKernan.

 

[Apex36]

What do you think they’ll give up then? Pick 12 will definitely be in play, maybe a player to the saints too.

What makes you think that you could possibly get pick 12 and a player for a player who’s good, but not elite by position?

Im a tad perplexed to. Eagerly anticipating the answer

 

[saintsrfreak]

No worries, keep paying someone overs to play in the seconds. Highly doubt you get that top 20 pick you want for him

lmao what mate, he plays every game when he's fit

 

[footyfan000001]

Gotta love this thread. Nobody even knows what’s happening behind closed doors and are already demanding picks. If the saints have approached Bruce and have told him to look for another club, then they hold less power. If we’ve approached Bruce, yet the saints want to keep him, then yes, of course we’re going to have to do something with a higher pick. He’s contracted. Wait and see what both clubs say after the season before demanding. I know the Stringer deal is completely different but once there’s a whiff of you trying to push a player out, you’re in trouble. The dogs looked stupid back then.

 

[joop]

So you have gone from just pick 12 to pick 12 and a player. Righto

Honestly I think pick 12 and Mclean is about right

Buyers market amigo. Pick 12 and Mclean or Dunkley

And now it's obvious you're trolling. Poor troll is poor

 

[The Boar]

Out: Bruce and StK 2020 2nd Round
In: Pick 12 and WB 2020 2nd Round.

2nd Round Pick next year will favour WB by 4-5 ladder positions you'd think.

He doesnt. He tried to engage in legitimate conversation but was incapable so resorted to that. People keep taking the bait.

Honestly, who has the time to troll? So much more to do with your time.

 

[Unknown Identity]

Bruce isn't worth more than a pick in the early 20's.
That's best case scenario.

 

[ManOfClay]

You take that back he’s not even our best midfielder. Jack Billings. Rowan Marshall. Jack Steven. Dylan Roberton. Jake Carsile. It can go on.

How’d all these great players (the ones who might not play again notwithstanding) go in your best and fairest compared to Ross?

If I’m more knowledgeable than you about your own club then what hope do you have in general afl discussions?

 

[joop]

And now it's obvious you're trolling. Poor troll is poor

Yeh, so poor it took a you a week to work it out

 

[Doggy]

Yeh, so poor it took a you a week to work it out

Pretty sure all dogs supporters knew you had no idea when you said pick 12

Suuuuure ya did.

 

[Doggy]

Suuuuure ya did.

Pick 12 was already too much for a 28 year old who saints may be pushing out

 

[Gosaints12]

If Daniher is leaving, I would hope we would put our foot in the door for Josh Bruce. Pick 29 would get it done you'd hope.

And you’d be wrong. Future 1st.

 

[Gosaints12]

Roof if bombers make a play for Bruce and he nominates them. Saints can forget about getting another first to trade for Hill. Dodo will bend them over.

Then will keep Bruce and the Dons can get out. If we’re serious about winning that second premiership then it has to start here. You can train the house down but without a team you’ll lose every week.

Yeah I can make that work.

Mate, Ross is a good player. Marshall in 3-5 years elite, Billings in 3-5 years, elite. That’s two that in their prime that will eat Ross for breakfast. Yes he is good, but longer term both Marshall and Billings will be better players players. Yes you’re argument was that he was better now and for that you’re correct. Credit we’re it’s due.

Unlike you I’m looking toward the future of the St Kilda footy club, which has Marshall and Billings elite. Unlike you’re footy club we didn’t play finals and can’t look toward 2020 or 2021 as years to content. I instead look toward the future.

 

[Lenny2020]

That's best case scenario.

Not sure about best case scenario. Late first round pick is fair for both teams and pick 12 is absolute best case scenario for us. Won’t happen but we will start there at least.

WB need a mature key forward and Bruce is a decent one.

 

[Mofra]

I don't get why Josh would want the Dogs (no offence) your key forwards are the best young duo we've seen since the GWS/GCS early days. Naughton/Schache should be the cornerstone of the Dogs premiership aspirations for a long time. A 10 year partnership in the making. A KPD is easier to find than a very good KPF hence why Naughton should be played forward.

Schache doesn't play like a KPF, he's a flanker in a tall body. We also have zero KPF depth right now.

Even if we bring in Bruce we may target Patrick Kerr as a DFA/late draft pick given we asked about him early in the season.

 

[Apex36]

Buyers market amigo. Pick 12 and Mclean or Dunkley

That must be some crazy good s**t you’re smoking there mate. Dunkley alone is worth Bruce plus extras. Oh, and I think you might have meant ‘sellers market’. You should probably learn the difference.

 

[chef]

I think he'll cost similar to what Crameri cost us and thats a pretty fair price.

 

[Doggy]

What? No way!

Saints would fall over themselves for Dunkley. Don't kid yourself
