I like it!

Although Frost is a defender.

A lot of forwards start as defenders, and vice versa.

 

[Topkent]

I like it!

Although Frost is a defender and Membrey deal not done.

Makes alot of sense actually, Big Bodied mid who we can take for nothing

 

[ThePuppetMaster]

This is a very good point, Still more players to be delisted now and we might target a Mid with PSD2

I'd say we almost definitely would be.

A Robinson type... I'd say Robinson but I don't know if Roos would be cool with him and Garlett...

 

[Dez!]

Shane Biggs and 39 for 37

WTF

Never even heard of him.

 

[Dez!]

I'd say we almost definitely would be.

I agree with us picking up Garlett I can't see us touching Robinson, which makes me happy.

Roosy gave Barry Hall a second chance after punching brent staker, think he can forgive Robbo

Roos No Dickheads Policy might be like that Lionel Hutz card.

Good blokes Only
No Dickhead Policy

=

Good blokes Only?
No, Dickhead Policy!

 

[CWaffles]

who else is there that is decent in the PSD?

 

[Topkent]

Never even heard of him.

Rookie listed mid from Sydney, Roosy would have taken him if he was much chop

 

[Cannon82]

Dogs have actually done alright considering the complete mess they seemed to be in.

Biggs and #39 for #37
#46 for Jones
#37 for Cooney
Boyd for Griffen and #6
#26 for Higgins

In: Biggs, Boyd, #26, #39, #46
Out: Cooney, Griffen, Higgins, Jones, #6

Gave up a couple of injury riddled players, their skip, a spud and #6 for a key forward, a young defender and a few usable picks. A cheeky little upgrade like that for Biggs is something I would have liked us to do. Needed a pick back from that Clark trade.

Decent is a strong word...

Petrenko, Burbury, Polkinghorne, <insert non-drafted player here>, Shaun McKernan

 

[ptrg]

1:45pm: CONFIRMED DEAL: Sam Frost and picks 40 and 53 are traded from GWS to Melbourne for pick 23.

 

[CWaffles]

Tutt? apparently was supposed to get to Carlton via a trade and didn't, there was word we were into him early on in the trade talks.

 

[RandB]

A lot of forwards start as defenders, and vice versa.

True. There could be a small element of foxing here.

Surely Membrey was priority for PSD for Saints though.

Get that PSD net out boys.

Should be some other nice options too. Membrey deal not getting done is very handy.

Pick 40 is useable I suppose.

 

[Cannon82]

True. There could be a small element of foxing here.

Surely Membrey was priority for PSD for Saints though.

If he's not, I'd be happy taking Membrey in the PSD at #2.

They just gave up three of their most experienced players, plus Cross last year, and we should all know what happens when you lose too much experience all at once and expect the kids to take over too soon.

 

[RandB]

Definitely.

 

[Theseventhhamster]

Bring on the draft!

 

[ManWithNoName]

True. There could be a small element of foxing here.

Surely Membrey was priority for PSD for Saints though.

If Frost was there they might've ensured they had two picks in the PSD and taken Membrey with their second pick since he's already committed to them.

 

[Topkent]

who else is there that is decent in the PSD?

No one
Petrenko, C.Jones, Burbury, Shroder, Jetta.......


Also with an extra pick in the draft now it means Trenners might be being moved to the rookie list

 

[DeeWong6996]

Couldn't we take Membrey at 53? Or am I missing something

 

[rhaz]

How many open list spots do we have now? Including the trades out and in, but not including Stretch.

 

[RandB]

If Frost was there they might've ensured they had two picks in the PSD and taken Membrey with their second pick since he's already committed to them.

They wouldn't have had picks 1 & 2 though would they?

Saints just confirming that they'll go Membrey with PSD1.

 

[LeverPuller]

I don't mind it. Two picks back gives us flexibility too. Means we don't have to piss around with trying to rookie Tapscott.

Remember we got TMac in the 50s. Can still elevate Jetta in the 5th round.
