I like Prior and think he could be a decent player. But he played like 2 games this year. Owies was Carltons best small forward this year. The position they struggled the most in
They don't rate him and clearly he isn't rated by all other clubs. No takers so far.

Unless there's some off-field stuff that isn't public, I'm struggling to see why. I rate Owies, and would have him with us it it was a position we weren't already flush in.

If we had a need for a small forward, I'd be taking it to the draft and trying to manoeuvre a pick to get a WA small Malakai Champion. Has a Brisbane Lions brand all over his style.

On Noble, if Neal Bullen is only worth pick 28 who is a pretty decent player, I therefore just don't see how Noble is worth a pick less than 40 odd but I guess its the Suns you are dealing with so they'll happily over pay.
Nah, Noble is definitely better than ANB. Far more consistent impact on the field.

Noble under contract makes his value a bit higher but yeah not much higher though.

Im shocked that Noble is worth anything past about a third round pick. I maybe get why they want to bring Rioli in, but I dont get Noble at all. I swear they should have enough players to play the half back role already

Edit I forgot about Rory Atkins. Is Noble just the latest trade to replace add another list clogger?

Each there own, but I reckon ANBs form has been super consistent the past 2 years and disagree with ya there. Anwyay, moot point given Suns will overpay irrespective as they usually do.

Forgive my ageing brain but I think we did something similar in early teens.
We gave up a pick in the low 20s for for a guy from Carlton.
Big body, blond hair, Queenslander who wanted to come home. Played as no. 7.
Can’t remember his bloomin name. 🙄

The problem is, nobody wants to go to Northern clubs when they are not successful so they have to grab players as soon as they show interest. Even when contracted. They’ve then got to pay what the trading clubs demand because the guys are contracted.

I feel sorry for them.

Tom Bell. Had a quick search, 21 games over 3 years. 16-18.
