Just reported on SEN that Gardiner and King from the cats are being traded.

What is heading the other way, may I ask?

Maybe im wrong, but don't clubs have to use picks that are traded to them?

Don't think there'll be much left in the draft that late.

Used to be the case, but the rules have changed.

Anyway, can't they use their last pick to get that Donohue kid under father/son.

Yes, but if they do use 90 for him, I'm pretty sure they have to use all their previous picks as well.

Is that really the deal. Pick 90 for King and Gardiner?.... Cat's making salary cap room.

Hang on, are we talking Charlie Gardiner, or Michael Gardiner?

Is it King for Gardiner + 90

or

King + C.Gardiner for 90?

steven king and charlie gardiner for 90

:o

Steal of the century!

St.Kilda are obviously thinking that they can win the flag next year.

Why else get King?

Lyon is following his former club's lead, bringing in a host of recycled players.

Because their rucks stink and he was free.

That's an absolute snorter of a trade. Reminds me of the Walsh trade a few years ago.

Just to put it in perspective, it's St. Kilda's 6th round pick, so it wouldn't be all that strange if Geelong actually used the pick. It's not that uncommon for teams to select all the way in to the 6th round, though usually it's the bottom teams that have just done a mass cleanout rather than the reigning premiers. By the time all the other teams do their rounds of passing it'll be more like mid 60s, which sounds far more reasonable.

Definitely a nice freeby for the Saints though.

lol.

I'm not sure King is really a Premiership ruckman. Blake did all the work during the year and missed a flag because of sentiment.

So Saints have added Schneider (pace/goals), Dempster (pace), King (ruck), Gardiner (?)
