Brown wants out!

It'll be interesting how discussions go with Brown to convince him to hang around.
West Coast must be 100% confident that we can keep him as with past players that want to return we have always been pretty good by helping them get home.
Beautiful. The outcome we wanted anyway. Teaches those mongrels at St Kilda a valuable lesson going after a player who was required and contracted. Apparently they are only prepared to trade Cripps to us if it involved Brown. No big loss. While it would have been nice to offer Cripps a spot as he does have talent he is not a required player and won't add much to our structures next year in terms of what our team is lacking. If they are not after Stevens then off to the Dogs or Bombers he goes.
I feel sorry for Cripps as he wanted to play for us and he still might but if this is St Kilda's attitude there is very little we can do to change it as Brown is not going anywhere. Perhaps it's time for both clubs to move on. I'd imagine the saints supporters would be kicking up a fuss over this.
So he's "locked and loaded" for the eagles then? Surely plough must have gotten one out

Cripps is not contracted though different scenario.
Yes it is Groga, but if they choose not to deal with us there is very little we can do about it. Maybe cooler heads will prevail over the next week and a half but perhaps they convince him to stay or try and trade him to Freo and convince Cripps they are his only options apart from the draft. Time will tell but they weren't keen to lose him to begin with.
Ill back us in to hold onto him, i wouldnt be surprised if glass hangs them up after next year then brown gets the key defender gig in a side that should be around the mark. I'd say the club has spent the last week talking mitch off the ledge and hell be happy enough to stay.

Reckon Cripps will end up with us in the end any way. We'll either trade for him or draft himI feel sorry for Cripps as he wanted to play for us and he still might but if this is St Kilda's attitude there is very little we can do to change it as Brown is not going anywhere.

No one would have known trade week was still going, zero happenings in two days

Everyone essentially sitting around twiddling their thumbs waiting for the free agency compo to come out now

The eagles stood by brown during his injuries, which were the reason he was passed by in the pecking order. I don't think it's unreasonable for him to stay on for another year. I'm sure he knows this and he wasn't given the mainy award for nothing.
The saints can't offer us the compo pick cause they don't have it yet.

The St. Kilda footy club just doesn't know the meaning of the word 'NO'.
Would actually be a win picking him up with our first pick, that is around 30+ these days isnt it?
With a fit glass and Mackenzie pending,
Surely Brown will want out same time next year right?
He's good, but a first rounder or even 24+Cripps would be better

He is back. I saw him at the airport the other day. And half the eagles team. No wonder I couldn't get emergency row seat. Natanui you hog.

This should be pointed out to him every time he talks up going back home to Victoria, if we lose him look to see Glass staying on another year after this one.

All I've heard are quotes from Pickering. Brown hasn't given an interview.
