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?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
