We've done well so far.

I think we should try to trade in another pick somewhere between 30-40 by trading out a future pick.

So that we can pick an athletic key defender such as Zane Zakostelsky aswell as a strong midfielder such as George Stevens

Can someone summarise the two separate draft pick swaps we made last night? What did we lose and gain in each trade?

Now trading is done ( pick swaps can still happen) i thought i would start the Rnd 1 best 22 discussion. I have used the following parameters to get to this: - expected natural improvement after another pre season - fit list (unlikely but can hope) - older guys early round may be a little behind ot...

I think his currency would have gone up this year by virtue of not being played much.

I guess he's worth a late 2nd round selection.

Guys, this trade isn't even about Shiel. We are taking his salary for draft pick 13. If we get some games and leadership out of him it's a bonus. Clearly there's a plan to utilise our picks 12 and 13 and this is the real plan. We could either trade them both for a higher pick in the top 10, or keep ...

‘ They lose Gresham’s salary commitment.’ ….. what is he taking about?? We don’t have any commitment because Gresham is uncontracted ! His source, the so called ‘rival recruiters’ have fed him rubbish and he believes it. That deal makes no sense to St Kilda at all and there’s no way that Silvagni is...

If we got pick 13 and Shiel for Gresham then bloody oath I’d take it .

Then look to trade picks 12 and 13 for pick 7 and get Sanders.

SAINT’S TURNAROUND SET TO CONTINUE St Kilda midfielder Hunter Clark is reportedly nearing a new deal with the club despite a failed trade request to North Melbourne last year. Clark has come to the end of his current deal with the club, reportedly worth around $500,000 per season. The Herald Sun rep...

Don't write off McLennan, I reckon he'll do alright.

Would be ideal to somehow get our hands on pick 7 (easier said than done!) for an elite midfielder like Sanders and then use our pick 13 on getting an elite tall defender of which there seems to quite a few options.

He’s worth pick 30 according to Champion Data guru

King looks slow and useless once the ball hits the deck. Looks like he isn't trying and even when he chases it looks half-hearted. The keyword being 'looks', just not sure if it appears that way or is reality? Some players have that lackadaisical appearance. Just wish he had more muscles, strength, ...

Stick him in the guts all next year and we’ve found one out missing pieces of the midfield puzzle which Lyon is trying to solve . God old fashioned tagger and does it well. Nullifies the oppo and does damage himself .

Take your meds big mart. Calm down. As saints supporters we should be used to having patience. The club is in this for the long haul and your band-aid solutions would only give a short term sugar hit. The young kids are the future and there are good lessons to be learnt , even in losing, even in not...

Stop trying to kill any ounce of positivity we have left.

Seriously so many negative ppl here. He will go for a 2nd rounder. When was last time we picked up anyone good with pick 25-35? He’s Aboriginal, quick, young, and wants to come to us ! What a deal !!! Can’t wait .

Half time disposal count:
Windhager 3
Phillipou 3
Caminiti 3
Owens 4

I’m glad that they are getting a taste of finals . They’ll work harder during the pre season knowing what it takes.

When will Marshall realise that the throw ins are 7 meters shorter than where he thinks they’ll go?

Phillipou about to mark it 15 metres out so Caminiti flatters into him

Missed mark by King at the top of the goal square would have put us 2 goals up early on. GWS just too good at the moment .

Does this mean Stocker comes back in?

Really hope he signs on. If guys like Allison and McKenzie were previously given long term deals, then Coff warrants a 5 year deal !

Definitely keep Cordy in.

Doogs and Gresham make obvious bloopers/errors which cause heads to drop and even change the momentum of games negatively.

We need reliable players. Happy to see both depart at season's end.
