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.

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.

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.

What would we have accomplished in this scenario?

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. 

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.

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. :cool:

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

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
