Saints somehow accepting pick 58 for Stevens screws us as well, a pick in the 30s this year in addition to a 2nd rounder would have been totally fine

 

[Bring back Drum]

Not sure I'm that fazed about the difference between 6 and 10 in regards to potential recruits this year, although obviously 6 is better. I still think 10 ends up with a player we want; say Roberton, Jackson, Rivers or Sharp. We may have lost a shot at Stephens along the way.

If pick 6 was on the table long enough, we could have turned that into 10&18. I personally don’t think it was ever seriously offered because of who they had to bring in.
I still think a couple of next years second rounders will come into play.

 

[MadMundy]

God St Kilda fans are a bunch of pompous twats

 

[yyou]

I reckon the longer it goes, the better for us.
If we were agreeing to 10 + next year's second, surely it would have already happened now the puffer deal has happened.

 

[Cayman Docker]

no news is good news

It’s gone a bit quiet on the live chat over at the Age since they too announced Hill was about to become a Saint....

Yep which looks so much worse for Peter Bell

 

[Alfonz]

If the Saints give us 6 in the first place, there is no way for them to do their other deals. The split of 6 was already worked out before the meeting they supposedly stormed out from and then fabricated a media narrative through Morris.

 

[summerthebat]

Is Acres out of the picture? Morris specifically just stated that we won’t get two first rounders...

 

[Nodgey]

I’m not convinced we were ever actually offered that pick 6.

They keep saying that talks broke down after just 2 ½ minutes. So I suspect we walked out because Saints told us they were going to split pick 6. The deal with GWS to split pick 6 took place shortly after talks “broke down”.

So I reckon the Saints were actually offering one of the split picks (e.g. 14) plus Acres or whatever. And we (rightly) told them to jam it.

Been 40 minutes since they reported we folded, whats the hold up

 

[yakka man]

Who is James Gallagher.

Either way I still think this deal has a bit to play out yet.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

If it is a future 2nd, there is no way we are taking three future 2nds into next year.

The talks are probably around using the 2nds we have and 22 along with St Kilda providing some greese to get back higher this year

Proof Morris is a bullshit artist

 

[FreoBraddles]

Won’t happen today - if at all.
per Aaints list manager

 

[Vimal Anand]

Saint really shrewd here. They want Hill deal before Bruce deal done....

St Kilda list manager.

"If anything happens..." interesting

 

[freo grover]

I like the 'IF' part of that sentence

 

[freo_leo29]

Brad Hill not being done today

That's good news, still holding hope for getting 13 from the Dogs

 

[Taylor]

#10, 2020 First for Hill and 2020 3rd

Don't even mind if we need to give up a 2020 2nd to push into #13 from the Dogs.

Then it can be #10, #13, 2020 2nd for Hill and our 2020 3rd

How many times are you going to post this same stuff? Hahah, the speculation is killing me.

 

[Joao]

This is good. Now I know I don't need to refresh the page every minute for the next 3 hours. Should get a fair bit more done.

Just until it's in an AFL House tweet.

 

[freo_leo29]

Dogs may give up 13 now that Dees have apparently traded up for Weightman, that was who Dogs were targeting apparently
