Re: Markworth - Serious Shoulder Injury
This will test the clubs ability to stand by its players. Look at Hawthorn and Max Bailey. He was on the list for 6 years with no games and 3 knee reco's. Finally gets a run at it and plays in a premiership. I hope they retain him and keep him on the list. Good clubs have the balls to make these tou...

Re: Name your Picks. 1, 21, 22 and 41 + rookie
I'm almost certain that it's now Paddy at 1 as every single phantom draft has changed in the last 48hrs.
So bearing that in mind here's how I think the dice will fall
1. McCartin
21. Lamb
22. D.McKenzie
41. Miller

Re: Is Pelchen sticking around?
So now we have no List manager because of a focus on high performance. Every other club has a list manager and a "head of recruitment" yet we decide we don't need a list manager. Personally it smacks of tightening the belt financially by consolidating positions. I really do hope that Finni...

Re: So McCartin the new number 1
Perhaps the plan all along was to load up on mids and try to liberate Jeremy Cameron from the Giants next year. I for one would prefer mids this draft over 2metre Peter or Paddy Mac! Let's hope they follow the correct line of think and call out Christian Petracca as Selection number 1.

Re: GWS now have 4, 6, 7 to trade for pick 1
Only way the deal gets done is if it's for all of 4,6,7. Pelchen and Bains were quoted as saying they have already knocked back multiple picks inside the top 15. Maybe Thomlinson comes into play now of they decide they want a player and 2 picks? If GWS baulk at any of those then no dice!

Re: Boyd requests trade to Bulldogs - How did we miss this??
I don't think it will happen this year. No way the Giants trade a 19y.o kid after 1 season in their program. They will stand firm and if he still wants out next year then a trade will be facilitated. Is it just me or have the players got too much control nowadays? Seems like every second player thin...

Re: GWS to get pick 1
With the mooted deal between GWS and the Dogs seemingly inevitable, does anyone now see a way for us to get 3 picks inside 22? I remember the Pelchen had a similar question on Twitter the other night and was confident it could be done without trading Pick 1?

Re: GWS to get pick 1
Given the Jacksch deal also looks unlikely, I'm pretty sure GWS have nothing to offer that will get them pick 1! Looks like another trade period furphy to me!

Re: Official Saints Trade thread
Carlton have already state that their first pick is not on the table. He was pick 12 two years ago and hasn't played much. It's hard to see how his value has increased in that time. More likely is tier second round pick

Re: Richmond inquires about Armo
Lenny's was the heart and soul and now Armo? Come on, anyone except Roo is tradeable this year. Pick 11 is a great deal IMO. Weller is a big body, so is Dunstan so the impact won't be that great. We still got spanked by massive margins when Armo was in the team so why not do the deal, assuming Pick ...

Re: Richmond inquires about Armo
If that's true as reported then say thanks very much Richmond and do te deal and quickly leave the building! Arno is 27 and were realistically 5 years away so he won't be in our best 22 then so strike whilst the iron is hot I reckon!

Being reported on SEN that will be one of the first deals done. Very light on for specifics but indicated it was likely 3rd round selection!

Re: Potential Quartet for 2017 finals and beyond
We'd want more depth than that. Curran and Saunders would need to improve out of sight for them to be starting midfielders. Draft some more midfielders next year and it's starting to take shape!

Re: GWS to get pick 1
If they do that deal then I don't see a need for McCartin really. If they get Jacksch they will have Roo, Stanley, White, Lee, Bruce (prefer him in defence) and Jacksch. McCartin may well turn out to be better than all except Roo but short term they may think they're covered with the GWS deal being ...

Re: GWS to get pick 1
Make no mistake this deal is on. I have no information or inside knowledge but the more I hear from Trout and Pelchen the more I think Petracca will end up at GWS. The rhetoric has changed somewhat over the last few days from "it has to be an outstanding deal" to "that's the type of d...

Re: GWS to get pick 1
One deal being discussed is Pick 1 to GWS in return for Jacksch, 4 & 20. Saints then take McCartin with 4 and end up with 3 inside 21. This seems like the best deal if were thinking of trading Pick 1. Seems GWS have a hard on for Petracca so it might be worth considering!?

Article was written in the H/S today. Single paragraph which suggested it was unlikely but finished with a "watch this space". It's silly season until the trade period actually starts so let's all take everything with a massive grain of salt

Hate to burst anyone's bubble but there's a small story in the H/S today stating Saints are into Luke Parker in an exchange for Pick 1. Lots of rumours this time of year but maybe there's something in its reported in the Hun!

Re: Signing #12 - Daniel Markworth - 2015
Pretty sure Sippa is already contracted for next year which is really make or break for him. My bet is that Billings will be the last one announced as they started with Dunstan so will probably finish with Billings!

Re: 2014 List Management - Draft & Trade Discussion
Heard a whisper (Damien Barrett) that GWS were thinking about packaging up Jaksch, O'Rouke. If they were prepared to do this would we consider giving them pick 1 and something else in return. I think they'd want a lot more for that deal but could we be tempted to broker a deal!?
