Re: Melksham
So more or less the same deal as for Crameri? Good deal (this one).

Re: Melksham
Do we off load this pick, in a shallow draft, to St Kilda as a sweetner for their Pick 5 or Billings?

Re: Melksham
Probably a good bloke but the turn over King or close to it in last couple of years.
Hopefully....hard to say....going forward we concentrate of guys who can hit targets under pressure like the Dawks did from ~2003 to present.

Re: Melksham
We did well to get pick 25 for him.
Re: Melksham
+1 - so it makes the Saints (and half the footy journos - including you Tony Jones) call that we are bit greedy insisting on pick 5 just a but lame. FFS - Gold Coast are asking for 2 first round draft picks for Charlie Dixon!!!robrulz5 wrote:We did well to get pick 25 for him.
Time to set up some competition with Norf and 2 other Vic based clubs ... so what if they won't pay the $700K per annum he will get from the Saints (again another weakness in their argument - you are willing to pay that much for a 2nd round draft picK??? Really???)
Sick of the haters in the "media"

LOL, Tony Jones would have to be the biggest imbecile in media. Fairdinkum, that bloke is brain dead.

True - he first claimed (and argues stronly) that pick 5 for Melksham was greedy ... Neil (Wanker) Mitchell gently corrected him that it was Carsisle not Meksham ... Jones: "him too".BenDoolan wrote:LOL, Tony Jones would have to be the biggest imbecile in media. Fairdinkum, that bloke is brain dead.

As I'd like us to use
4,5,23,25 which would yield a good selection of draftees.
We have to fill 5 or 6 spots? Given leuey will be a Bomber.

Looking more like 4, 15, 18, 23, 25 plus some lateslittle_ripper wrote:Ship perhaps a 3rd rounderGimps wrote:f*** giving up Carlisle and 25 for 5.Windy_Hill wrote:Do we off load this pick, in a shallow draft, to St Kilda as a sweetner for their Pick 5 or Billings?

AFL rule is a minimum of 3 changes and so far we have 2 retirements and one delisting (ignoring rookies) That assuming 2 exits via the trades that gives 6 spots... Leuenberger would only rate a late draft pick (4th round) and Surely McKernan has done enough for an elevation (5th round).
This means that at least one more needs to be cut from the list - and given it is highly possible that Wallis will be taken as a F/S (and I suspect for a 3rd round) it may be desirable to look at trading someone like Kavanagh would give this.
IMO - big decisopns need to be made about Kav, Kommer, Dempsey, Pears and Steinberg (cant keep him on the rookie list for a 4th year surely). MeKenna should be given another year as a rookie
