takeaway wrote:Fyfe post injury, Weller, for Longer, Billings & Eli??? No thanks.
Let me get this straight takeaway you wouldn't do this 'fantasy' trade?
That's even funnier than the fantasy!
Correct. I don't think Fyfe will be the same player again, and he is hard work to manage.
I value Longer above Hickey, especially as he matures as a ruckman and person. Billings will be 250 game player and a gun.
I agree the trade is a fantasy, just someone craving attention.
I respect all you ITK info Jaxons. You give info as you hear it.
Hickey miles in front of Longer both on and off the field.
Billings is a long way short of the potential he showed as a junior.
Don't want to get into the Hickey Longer debate, but potential is the operative word - and I think both Longer & Billings have a huge upside.
Anyway, not happening anyway.

Fyfe is out of contract. Has no obligation to fremantle. Thats the last ill add. I expect huge apologies when this eventuates.
Fyfe wants to be a star as in afl in melbourne star.
He and freo have fallen out. He dont care what they get in return.
See you in a month

He's out of contract next year.
I'll give you some cred with regards to Eli & Longer. Both are very good chances to be traded....just not involved in your Fyfe scenario.

I will do more than apologise if this happens.
Will you acknowledge you are miles off reality when none of this eventuates?

I find this comment about Billings very disturbing. Obviously you know more than any on here, but he looked fantastic in his first year and has injury troubles the last two years. So we shouldn't be expecting a breakout year when he gets fully fit?

agree with this post...what should be expect from Jack?
Longer needs to get off the darts and become a professional footballer if he wants to be as good as Hickey....I am assuming he will be traded...are you softening us up for a Billings trade Jaxons?

We can't lure Laverde or Marchbank - or Steele it now seems. Yet somehow Fyfe, arguable the best player in the comp, is going to want to come to St Kilda. I reckon we could offer 1.5 million a year and he still wouldn't come.
There is always going to be the odd exception- like Carlisle - but 19 times out of 20, an established player is not going to choose St Kilda until we have sustained success .
Life is never more fun than when you're the underdog competing against the giants.
