    Given the length and amount of the contract, Saints certainly think he’s worth pick 5. They’re shafting themselves.

    Saints are at Norf level desperate to get anyone to sign with them.

    Agreed. Sure Hill is a good player, but he is nowhere near $900K good.

    That kind of money is more for A-grade, heading into A+ category player's. Hill is a solid B+ at best.

    As we well know, when you've been down the bottom for a while, you do have to overpay in order to lure good players. You'd think it'd be heavily front-ended.

    Not sure I get that logic, I’d rather Hill than at least 3/4 of our list.

    Not for $900k a season.

    Nominated Saints as preferred club. 6 year deal worth 5.4 mil and freo want their pick 5. I know he’s a good player but gee that’s seems like a lot. 

    Yep, feels like overs.

    By about 350%.

    Carlton have had just as many misses, if not more, than us over the years.

    imagine being fremantle and thinking Brad Hill is worth a top 5 pick and another first rounder but being absolutely certain Jesse Hogan isn't.

    He's barely worth pick 6 let alone another first rounder. Keep dreaming Bell

    St Kilda were always going to have this issue when they offered Hill $900k per season.

    Fremantle up to their old tricks. 

     

    After paying pick 27 or something for him? Dreaming.

    They'd needed a lure to get him to nominate them so that Freo would only deal with them and now they are reaping what they sowed.

    Exactly. $900k a year on a six year contract. IMO he’s not worth two first round picks however St Kilda’s offer says he is.

    Two first rounders for Hill is way over but I suppose we paid that for Lever.

    Sure did... if you think pick 6 and pick 19 hold the same value.

    What does what they paid have to do with true value?

    Pick 6 and future first (St Kilda’s, let’s say pick 8 next year) vs pick 10 and a future pick 19 (with pick 35 coming back) ......

    The first round is a long round and covers everything from pick 1 to a pick in the low 20s.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
