Wilkie should be a test specimen.

To reveal the weaknesses of the draft system.

Four times overlooked in the National Draft!

In Adelaide - finally gets a chance in 2017 ..
2nd in the B @ F straight off the bat.
2018? premiership and best and fairest!

It’s fascinating!

I suspect he just didn’t stand out …he didn’t have a novelty , or some flamboyant things!

Is he the next Wayne Judson?


You're quite brilliant Shane, yeah..terrific!

I think Wilkie is a great player but I don’t see him getting any better.We have a number of players who play his position Battle,highmore,coffield with coffield I see a lot of improvement with him especially now we have a new development coach.
I would assume we could get a early 3rounder for Wilkie or even late 2rounder. :D
By far the silliest suggestion I have ever seen on this forum.

Great team. A little vulnerable to injury.

We still have 5 Steeles - 5 Sinclairs - 3 Kings - 3 RoMas - 2 Howards - 2 Wilkies - 2 Sharmans available to play if we suffer injuries

Hasn’t Thalia been delisted - no trade required to pick him up as a delisted free agent?

Definitely trade Wilkie... Too big for his boots..

He took over from Gresh in leading the team song after a win, he did such a good job that it's now caused friction within the playing group..

There have been some silly threads on Saintsational over the years but this one pretty well takes the cake. St Kilda supporters are widely recognized as bat-shyte crazy whe topics like this are aired in public.

Callum Wilkie, picked out of the AFL Rookie Draft, arrived at St Kilda as an unknown quantity in January 2019 and has played every one of the 63 matches the club has been played until now. Widely acknowledged as one of the good, if not great, recruiting masterpieces of the game. And here we have some knob suggest we trade him? Obviously some live in fear of success!

Trading one of our better defenders for a third round pick seems a bit like robbing Peter to pay to Paul 🤷‍♂️

Nope - must disagree - it is like robbing Peter to spend half the money on booze and cheap thrills and then wasting the other half - just to end up being beaten to a bloody pulp by Paul

At least he didn't say trade Riewoldt to Collingwood........I run my mouth and half the words are rubbish, but I feign wit which holds back the chainsaws.
