I was told today by someone who I consider a pretty reliable source that middle second rounder compo for Dal might be closer to the mark. That's around our second rounder isn't it?

Went for a stroll today near Arden St. and saw an apparent meeting in a cafe. One man, who it seemed struggled to fill out his underwear, was in the process of signing some sort of document before, would you believe, a pelican swooped in and stole the pen. Now I wasn't exactly privy to the conversation, but it appeared none had a spare pen handy so I'm guessing the document will be signed as soon as they find that pelican and get the pen back

We gave macintosh last year for pick37 didn't we? A guy who was in the all Australian squad. To say that delany has the same value this year is laughable. People you can't get a game in your first side shouldn't have much value at all.

For mine and many others here a KD player to backup the Thompson, Grima and Hansen would be ideal with a later pick. Delaney is the best FB in the country not getting a regular game who happens to be held out by the AA FB and is just reaching his prime.

Care to name a better KD player than Delaney we could get with our 3rd rounder or even pick 37?

He's worth 37 every day of the week imo.

If we give Delaney away as steak knives just to get NDS as a FA, I will not be that happy, so when others say we all agree to give Delaney away, um, f..k no we all don't.

NDS is worth low 20s, that is what St Kilda will be getting, may get lucky and get 20?

Delaney is worth a third rounder easily, arguably best mature KPD not playing regularly in the AFL, but to get it done I could accept swapping our pick 44 which we should not use for their third rounder, if he is worth a 3 year contract he is worth 7 odd places in the third round of the draft.

FFS, we don't have to be bent over every time we trade a player.

we will never get the big names whilst we are happy to be bent over the trade table because other clubs will think they can always pay unders for our guys.

Word is they've found the pelican, yet it is unwilling to give up the pen. May require fish AND chips to nab the pen back

I'm not sure why we just haven't walked away to be honest? Two weeks and St Kilda still can't decide what they want to do? Quite simple process really FA or no FA! We should have just said if you want to release him as a FA come see us, but in the meantime we will be using every minute you waste to shop Delaney around and will take a deal from another club if all parties accept it.

Because we can get NDS practically for free by waiting til 1pm Friday?

It'll be worth it when he spots up Black.
