Better off taking a lesser pick for Petracca than paying him to play for another club. Cap space is more valuable than picks.

Stk spruiking they’re confident they can get Flanders too… could see GC trading him to us just to spite StK after Ross’ nepo baby comments. Id be up for that

St Kilda are tossing around a lot of money to hold Nasiah and acquire TDK. It did put me in mind of this thread even before I saw these two comments next to each other.

We may have put our salary cap on the line to secure a premiership, and have seen both the positive and negative of that, but St Kilda... well, as they say in the classics, there's no point [censored]ing your way to the middle.

They've drafted very well since 2021ish - with a few still on the 'too young, wait and see, lots of potential' list of course. If they can complete their list while that wave of young talent comes through then they are onto something. But it looks to me like they are headed for the kind of path Carlton has spent the last decade on. Big stars here, big stars there, but also too much empty sky.

Although the AFL team has completed its Casey has not, and all MFC players are available for Casey until they are eliminated from finals. The MFC players trained at Casey last night in the cold and pouring rain, and if they qualify, are happy to keep playing. I suspect, but cannot confirm, that this may be the reason why not all exit interviews have been conducted or any delisting published until all Casey commitments are finalised

Kolton qualifies, and Ollie Sestan trained and is available for Saturday as well. I believe Jefferson is injured, but Casey will field a strong team.
