Aish is a lot better but we will probably get something similar

Is there a mid-season draft in 2020?
Weren't they floating the idea of a midseason trade window?
re: Wills - trading him won't ease any salary cap issues. We may have floated him, but would want a fair pick in trade.
This year has shown that contract $ / years negotiation is at least as important as spotting draft talent and negotiating trades.
Hill and Howard will improve the Saints a heap, but enough to win a flag? Paying 1.5m for the next few years for these two will make sustained improvement difficult. As we've already seen with the Gubby effect.

I’m thinking of the period we picked up John Noble in this year.

He was great. Look at his last 5 games. Tackling machine. Other players lifted once he got into the team.
enough to win a flag? Ffs serious overrating there. Won’t make the 8.

He's uncontracted and supposedly had a contract offer from us for a while now. So we wouldn't be trying to trade him for salary cap relief, because he's not contracted. It'll be a low offer from us and he will have been trying to get better offers.

Yes Dave, but if you delist a player and pay them out it’s still counted under the salary cap. Then you have to recruit and pay players to take those spots. Doing what you’re suggesting is actually putting the salary cap under more pressure, which the opposite of what the club is trying to achieve here. I know it’s upsetting for you that Aish is gone, but the only way that a contracted guy like Scharenberg could go is in a trade, and there were clearly no takers. In Wills’ case, his contract offer will be on minimum chips. We’ll be paying him barely any more than we’d pay a new draftee, so once again, getting rid of him provides no relief.
I’m sorry it’s happened this way mate, but Aish really was the only obvious option here.
I can imagine him stepping one foot on the holden center field and disintegrating like that scene in avengers.
Agreed
Your first 2 sentences, that was my point. Reckon they're a decent chance to finish 6-10 though.

Lol at Damo saying "all your list management expertise" even though he's never been a list manager in his life.
Rate our trade period D-

I could see why we get a D Rating
Stephenson isn't A grade. C+ to B- at this stage.

Taylor was a pure depth player this year. Played 4 games. He was never going to yeild much in a trade.

Your opinion.

He has A-Grade Potential
I gave it a D minus. Held onto list cloggers, and not solved any list issues.
