Josh Kelly

It's been photoshopped now so it's a done deal. Is that how it works?

Classic! So some yobbo on SEN was definitely on the money then. (no offence to caller).

All i can say is "ye of little faith"

On Trac, he will gradually have that inevitable body change from Jarman (similar ability)  to Flower/Schwartz (pure poise and power)

[censored] he has to lose some weight to get a body shaped like Tulip's. About 30 kegs I'd reckon

tis a time to dream

waking up can be left to another day...........after our premiership hangover

[Demonsone 2,015]

Imagine that...

We gave up our pick 2 to GWS in 2013 who picked Josh Kelly & we will need to pay overs to get him now...

No doubt, which is exactly why his last several games have been putrid

He has played 30 games of footy

Considering we're a finals bound team with many valued players tradewise even without his addition, shows we've still done well out of that trade. To have a player become a superstar like him and come to us, means we'd be paying unders to get him ie we have enough depth if we trade a good player and our first round picks are not high ones. 2x Pick 12-18

Good player but from what I am hearing the peptiders are in poll position on this one. With Jobe, Stanton and a few others finishing up they have a lot to play with.

Just funny how things could work out...We got Tyson, Salem & Hunt from this deal so was a win on both teams

The Draft and Trading board is going to be great this year.    Great players possibly on the move (Lever, Kelly), we are a destination club finally and we own our 1st rounder unlike last season. 

But whats even greater is that it isnt open yet! And hopefully isnt until our last game is finished (ie. the Grand Final)

[PaulRB 6,305]

Heard a strong rumour that Kelly is deal done to Dons.

For what that's worth.

I'd be a bit annoyed. I mean we have Salem and Tyson. But the fact we could have had him for just one first rounder, and will have to give up way more to get him now is a bit embarrassing.

Herald had Kelly to Dons today.

Check the date on that paper. It might be referring to James Kelly going to Essendon as a top-up player.

I heard the same thing as well. Guess with Watson leaving and having few star players gives the filth some $$$ to throw at him.

[Wrecker45 3,378]

Under Roos we payed unders for everyone.

If we have learnt anything as a club we will not touch him.

Jeff Garlett says hi, along with plenty of mates.

I've heard Richmond have an offer for him that's as good as any if dusty does go.

We also got hunt in that deal. Good deal i reckon

[dimmy 1,307]

St Kilda will have a bookies bag to throw around with Riewoldt and Montagna retiring . SO do not count therm out. Maybe we could get Seb Ross as an outside Mid.

Let's at least have a shot at Kelly 

who's up for trade bait ?

now that's another whole thread !

Tyson

kent

spencer

Source? Sauce? What sort of sauce? 

And I guess Gillon would be fully on board (and maybe offering some gentle persuasion) as the poor Druggies were so hardly done by.

Were R and M veterans, and if so would their departure free up quite so much?

Just to be sure you are not taking the pizz....

Don't be revisionist. When we did that deal we were desperate to inject some talent into the side immediately. We won 2 games for the year and had Terlich and Matt Jones finish 3rd and 4th in our B&F. It was a dire situation. 

We did the pick 2 deal and got Tyson and Salem. Tyson's first year was a stand out. Had we taken Kelly and had to wait 4 years for him to blossom who knows where we would be.

My brother (who's a Dons tragic) plays footy with a Don's bigwig, reckons it's been a lock for months...

Yeah people say that. I don't buy it. I reckon had we waited for another round, or waited for rookies he'd still be ours. He was completely out of nowhere. Noone saw him coming. Incidental where the pick was.
