I would have thought no issue at all. Not as though Carlton's list is bursting with talent. He'd be in their top dozen players.

Don't see 3 years being an issue for Carltank either.

What would we have accomplished in this scenario?

[Bonkers 994]

I'd be surprised if we accepted pick 75. We  gave up pick 66 for Harley Balic and pick 54 for Viv Michie both of those players had barely any runs on the board at AFL level. Based on those trades and the contract offered to him by the saints I'd say Kent is worth a pick in the 30s or 40s despite his injury record.

Well if there is competition for him so much the better and we'll get our price. But I certainly dont rate him as highly as you and wouldn't offer that sort of contract to someone who could be a bust.

Stop St Kilda from from achieving what they set out to do. If they trade fair they get their man. If not, everyone looses.

[John Demonic 5,801]

The only realistic payback is for Goody to 'accidentally' bump into Gresham or Billings while on holiday and forge a good friendship between now and the 2019 trade period ! Richo's replacement will be met with a similar trade or psd ultimatum

No F****** Way he is worth pick 75. When Kent is in the team, he is clearly in our best 22. He snags 2-3 goals a game, provides forward pressure, strong tackling and has genuine pace to break lines and can roost it from outside 50. He is clearly worth between 30 - 50. 

This assertion is only slightly undermined by his career tally of 63 goals in 63 games. He has however improved in recent years, with a career high 1.4 goals per game this year from his five appearances.

Meanwhile a quiz:

48 - 29 - 43 - 12 - 40 - 29 - 42 -18

What number comes next in the sequence?

Very true. Although even that does Kent an injustice as he was injured and unable to play on in the 1st quarter of two of those five games.

One hour spent on this, I think that’s enough. Good one Skuit, does this actually have anything to do with Kent?

My guess is 20.

I spent about 30 min on it - the only connection I could find was he was drafted at 48... you've got more stamina than me @Dee Zephyr

Don't have an answer but they look like player numbers, game points margins or draft pick numbers to me

Ha Ha. Not sure about the stamina part, was hoping to see a few pages added on the Hogan thread rather than hanging out post by post.  

I searched far and wide and didn’t even think to look at his draft number. Some of those numbers do match his career kicks tally against certain clubs. Long Bow I think.

[SFebes 4,884]

If STK are prepared to offer him 3 years then they value him higher than a pick 75 IMO, but we'll take what we can get. When on he's a gun, we just didn't see it enough so realistically won't be missed.

Don't know but it equals -165. 

[Jaded No More 68,950]

Honestly St Kilda are joking and I hope one day we snatch one of their players for SFA. Which would make sense as pretty much all their players are worth SFA, hence ladder position.

Next number depends on how many goals Jeff Garlett kicks in 2019. Hopefully lots!

The sequence = the number of goals he has scored per season since 2011

put him down for 40 plus goals in 2019 then.

Can anyone confirm his partner has moved back to WA this year?? 

happy wife, happy life, maybe not so happy Jeff this year
