That's what some don't understand. St.Kilda will do what is best for them. If carlton or someone else offered up some trash like has been mentioned in here, they'd laugh and just wait a year for a big payday.
If St.Kilda hang onto him for one more year (he's contracted for 2012) they'll get excellent compo no matter what happens as he qualifies under free agency rules.
Also, Gibbs did beat Goddard in that game when Goddard was in a massive rut. Goddard has mongrel and a massive boot, Gibbs is soft. Outside of that similar players. I'd take Goddard even with less years left in the game.
Yeah, might be better for the Blues to wait a year, convince BJ to join for x $ and let the AFL pay for the picks. Works for all
