No it isnt to much for Kelly.
And Hopper is worth more than 18 (or later depending on academy f/s or priprity picks)

No player in the history of the game has been traded for pick 3 + 15, you can get an elite player with pick 3 alone the 15 is a free hit to cash in an advantage.

It is most certainly too much for one player, pick 3 + a 2nd rounder is more then enough

No player has been offered what he is getting offered.

You may think so but it isnt in my opinion.

Otherwise go to the draft and develop players.

Trelour went for 2 pick 7s with 28 coming back. Kelly is better at the same age.

Oh North fans.. the constant battle to be relevant. Kelly leaving for a 5 year rebuild when on cusp of winning flags. Where do I sign
At least North are opting for legal ways to stay relevant...

Offering a young superstar a contract that fits inside the salary cap limits is perfectly normal.

The cap is way higher now, have to be 2mil a year to match what we gave Judd and what GC gave Ablett with inflation

Oh boy some Carlton and Saints fans trying to stay relevant by calling North irrelevant.

Lets face it it's all you have when it comes to banter with 17 other clubs, because winning and playing finals isn't one of them.

But i do think it's cute how Carlton posters are getting defensive with Kelly when it comes to Bombers/Kelly talk.

You predicted your team to go backwards this year after getting Carlisle back and Steele?

The ladder prediction thread tells the story of who's posters were more deluded. Majority of Saints posters has you in the 8. Not the case for Roo supporters.
Yes I predicted my team to go backwards. I did not/ do not rate our list. I don't know what every one else saw in the team.
Like I said Saints fans had a little more reason to be optimistic about making the 8 due to having a better list then Norf.

You guys really are a sad bunch of people.

Just like you guaranteed us earlier in this thread that Dusty was coming to North?
That's not a guarantee.
Mixed messages.

Something like 50% staying @ GWS, 45% Carlton and 5% the rest.
Lol. According to brown.

His manager said North and GWS are the one's that have come to the party. The rest are just in the conversation because the media rates carlton's collection of high draft picks and saints have 2 first rounders. That is it.

50/50 north and GWS. Like it has been all season.

3288 Points(Pick 7 x2) - 677 (Pick 28) = 2611 - 2234 (Pick 3) + Pick 43 is the same value as that trade.

And at the time collingwood expected to play finals so they were really giving up less then that. Kelly also was worse then Treloar at the same age prior to this year and has just slightly edged ahead, he isn't worth substantially more.

Pick 3 + 20 is worth 3146 points, virtually as much as 2 pick 7's and more then enough.

Point still stands.

Not really because players have been offered more money (Dusty) and longer contracts (Franklin) without even going with the inflated worth of ablett/judd deals.

Clearly he wants to come home either now or after winning a flag with gws, you won't get much when he leaves via free agency in 2 years should he stay.

Yeah I'm sure one of the best youngsters in the land, likely to finish top 5 in the Brownlow this year has only attracted serious offers from GWS and North Melbourne.

No other club has even bothered to come to the party.

Do you even read your own posts?

Paul Connors actually said it on open Mike last week. He said that GWS and North were the only people in the conversation - when asked if there were other clubs involved he said: "no, we don't do that"
Alluding to bid shopping and playing clubs off against each other.

I'm quoting his manager connors. With stuff he's said on national tv. You are speaking with crossed fingers and tiny hopes and dreams. There is a difference.

Ha, that's not what that means at all. Wow you North fans are hilarious.

By we don't do that it pretty clearly means that he's not going to openly state the clubs who have presented Connors with offers for his client. Why would he?

Not that hard to understand really. :$

Kelly has more upside than Martin.

Will be a North player guaranteed
Is this a joke ? Haha good one . One bloke is surrounded with guns and the other has played beside a bunch of spuds most of his career . One is a inside contested bull who beats full backs one on one deep in the forward 50 and the other is a outside player developing his inside game who is lightly framed . Get your hand of it .
