Traded Logan Austin [traded to St Kilda]

[PowerForGood]

Wished he would stay but clearly a deal worked behind the scenes.
3rd rounder is all this is really worth tbh.
Wonder if there someone else coming into Port we dont know about.

[Ceanag]

As predicted ..we got him for a bag of chips

 

[King_Steele]

Good get Saints.

Austin/Goddard combo down back for many years to come hopefully.

And here we have another. There's a thing called bargaining power. Look it up.

Here's a transcript of St Kilda attempting to negotiate a trade of a fourth rounder for an uncontracted Logan Austin:

St Kilda: "Fourth rounder"
Port: "We're in deep of depth key defenders and we're quite happy with his development, we think he's worth at least a third rounder".
St Kilda: "Fourth rounder"
Port: "We're not happy with it, but better to lose him for a fourth rounder than nothing, sold."

Here's a transcript of St Kilda attempting to negotiate a trade of a fourth rounder for a contracted Logan Austin:

St Kilda: "Fourth rounder"
Port: "We're in deep of depth key defenders and we're quite happy with his development, we think he's worth a third rounder".
St Kilda: "Fourth rounder"
Port: "No deal, we'll just keep him instead, goodbye."

Hope this has cleared things up. It's a seller's market. Austin is worth what Port Adelaide say he's worth. If another club isn't willing to pay up, he's a Port Adelaide player again next year.

And here we have a third Saints fan who doesn't understand the concept of bargaining power. Koby Stevens was uncontracted.

Here we have somebody who doesn't understand the difference between trading for a contracted player and trading for an uncontracted player.
And Austin showed more at AFL level last year than either of those two ever have.

And here we have a Power fan who does not just have egg on his face, but basically tripped and fell into the egg section at Woolies.

Here's an exclusive transcript of negotiations:

St Kilda: Okay Port, we want Logan Austin, he was pick 69, has played 13 games in 3 years, isn't in your best 22 and wants to come to us. We'll give you a future third rounder if you throw in a future fourth

Port: Okay Deal

St Kilda getting Fyfe, Martin, Kelly





Austin

In all fairness early in the year the saints did say martin was not the type of player they wanted to bring into the club

Go and check your draft thread ..we might be just about to ream you ...

Err ... I said he wouldn’t be traded for a fourth rounder. He was traded for a third rounder, which is what I said I thought he was worth in my post. I was right. Not sure what point you thought you were proving here but you completely failed to prove it.

Aaron Young is a much better player than Logan Austin, but we only got a fourth rounder for an uncontracted Young and we got a third rounder for a contracted Austin. #bargainingpower

Yeah ..You won ..ok

 

[PowerForGood]

Best of luck Logan. Hope you get the opportunity to flourish at St Kilda.

Bruce can play - id be happy to have him at tigerland

 

[JG22]

Future second or no deal

 

[Buzzasto DaSilva]

Based on this year's ladder positions, the pick swap in this trade value Austin at around pick 73.

But sure, Austin is worth a second rounder and has shown more than Josh Schache

lmao

 

[StCicatriz]

St Kilda before Ameet Bains got the gig: Four consecutive finals appearances, including two Grand Final appearances

St Kilda after Ameet Bains got the gig: Six consecutive years without finals

I can see why you revere that bloke so much, he’s obviously a gun.

The Heathen cried out "thou shall not be a trade, I damn the to no finals. we command the 2nd round draft pick" and the lord Ameet said "do not worry poor bogan, the pick is as i said it and the trade shall be done. we will return to the promised land". As the lord commanded it, such was the trade.

 

[Sainter93]

So how's that 2nd rounder looking

Your bargaining power is Schulzenhouse

 

[Keg on legs]

Nice get saints

Ameetos my hero

 

[SaintWWodonga]

welcome young man...

 

[StCicatriz]

Praise be the ameetos!!!!

 

[Joffaboy]

The balance of AFL power shifts to the Saints with this trade.

Makes sense

 

[Armoooo]

Another big fish done.

Port Adelaide are another club who will be having nightmares for years to come after being played by the main man Ameet.
