Cheers, hope you don't mind I'll edit your post and add links/images as they become available.

Welcome Sam! Excited to see what he can do for us. The rare straight pick swap seems to me like we are dealing in good faith to move things along and perhaps assist in future dealings.

Yeah - seems to neat and a little over the odds.

Clears the space for GCS to go after Petracca so maybe overpay for Butler/good deal on a GCS player once the dust has settled?

He's clearly better than anyone we'd get at pick 7 (or what it ends up as) in this draft. Far more proven too obviously. The trade is win-win.

Hi Sam, welcome to the Saints.
I wish you a long & prosperous career.
Hundreds and hundreds of Saints before you have tried to help us win a flag.
Only 20 have actually succeeded.
May you be a part of our second premiership!

Welcome Mr Flanders, our new midfield gun!

Great pickup. Perfect age for our list and should slot in nicely with our current setup. I have reservations about TDK, Ryan and Aleer, but I'm stoked with Ned. Also happy with JSOS, as he will genuinely make us better and just cost cap space (without being on an insane contract)

Welcome Sam you will be an absolutely integral part of the team that will break our Premiership drought. Welcome mate, you're a Sainter now!

im liking this flanders character, hope we get him

Good pick up. Clean by hand and foot and elite at ground ball. Will complement the likes of Nas, Sincs, Garcia and Hall who have wheels out of the midfield.

Oh, and kicks goals. Bargain for pick 11 or 12 in this draft.

Interesting fact

Glad Coast live traded with Carlton on draft night to take Flanders.

Carlton used the two pick they received to take Brodie Kemp and Sam Philp
