****in St Kilda. Of all the clubs that absolutely does not need to be trading two first rounders for a 27 year old flanker, they're top of the list. Cursed to finish mid-table forever.
 
Maybe Phillipou + 2nd round but not more than that.

No ****ing way should we do that.


Phillipou is nowhere near Houston’s level, and it would take an amazing jump to get near it.

mattaes at this stage is a bit of a bust considering how early he was picked. There’s still hope there that he can develop and he’s got skills as a forward but the idea he was going to be the next bont / big mid has taken a massive dive.

He’s closer to steak knives than main part of any deal.
 
Tom Morris reporting that Saints, Dogs and North are in the race to get Houston.
Saints and North dont need Houston whatsoever. Their interest makes little sense. Maybe this is North's way of getting "experienced players" but it wont be cheap for them.
 
Having multiple suitors is exactly the position we want to be in. It's certainly better than when it looked like we had to accept whatever it was that Melbourne could offer.

Good reflection on Dan too, to be open to different options.

Your justification for North not needing him makes no sense.
North absolutely need experienced players and if they got Dan it would be huge for them. They don't need to hoard any more draft picks and would have $ to spend.

Not that I think he'll go there.

This is not the type of experienced players North are looking for. They are looking for relatively cheap ones who aren't in their prime but are solid enough. Houston won't be there for North's next flag tilt, they are that far off. And its a huge price for them to pay for someone who won't be there
 
What about Essendon, Collingwood, Richmond, Geelong and Hawthorn? Dan's been linked to the other 5 Melbourne clubs.
Essendon are really the only ones from that list of 5 that would have the resources for the trade and a need for a player like Dan. Collingwood, Geelong and Hawthorn don't really have the resources given they have it tied up in their own targets like Smith, Barrass etc. Houston is definitely not within Richmond's profile

Yeah I know Addy. Was being sarcastic.

Beggars can't be choosers.

They've been trying to land a big fish since Polec went there.
