I think his "decline" is very overstated. the reduction in his raw numbers are mainly due to his reduction of time on ground. And his TOG being reduced is more about blooding young mids and bringing in the next generation at the Saints more than a drop in his production/ability. I know AFL Fantasy points are not the most advanced way to measure a players value, but it does highlight a players general output overall. As you can see he is actually still running pretty much at the level of his whole career excluding 2021 , when he was 4th is the coaches award and was playing at a very elite level. Even saying all that, its his leadership and professionalism that we will value the most. hard to measure that impact but I for one am very happy with his addition.

Ban worthy post 😜

I wonder if the hawks would be interested in trading 8 and 37 to for 10 and 22. Then we can get Dove and Pickett.

What do people think of: 7, F1 (GC), F1 (Dees 2027) & 37 For 2, 13 & F2 On points it is relatively even, depending on where Dees and GC finish in the next 2 years of course. Gives us 2,8,13 for 2025 Draft and gives us back a 2nd rounder next year. Robey 8. Grlj /Lindsey 13. Dovaston

If we have absolutely zero chance of getting BH, which sadly know I think is the case. it would be great to see something like this: Trac, 24, 35 (Oliver) & 42 (Worth about 1161 points) for 7, 8, 15. (pick 15 is worth 973 Points) Gives us 7, 8, 15 and 27 to take to the draft. Not Ideal considering the draft quality, but at least we clear the list of drama/distraction & large restrictive contracts. That draft hand could potentially land us: Josh Lindsey 8. Sam Grlj 15. Lachie Dovaston 27. Latrelle Picket. Replacing the butchery via foot of Oliver and Trac with the elite usage of Lindsey and Grlj would be a massive step towards improving under Kingy. Adding The two small forwards will also greatly improve our forward pressure and scoring power. Might line up something like this: This is the most skilled 22 the Dees have seen in a long time. Also loads of pace in this side which is required in modern footy. A very young side but it would be super exciting to watch! Stage 2 is continuously reaching out to BH and making it clear we will be coming for him again next year.

Have to make it worth while to GC though. This would be a huge result for us.

To be fair, he was sub effected in 50% of his games this year. He can play, but he is no Humphrey alternative.

Well.. If it was up to me I trade him to the Dees for a future 4th. And throw in Ben King! 🤣 I agree though, it makes the most sense to trade to us, but its BH that's decides.

To who though?! 🤣

Yeah I get ya, my comment was just a tongue in cheek dig at the "Nepo Babies"

There's is absolutely nothing "natural" about the way they built that list. Or the club as a whole 🤣

The issue with uncontracted players is that they have the leverage to walk to the draft. In this instance they don't have that leverage due to WC and us both being ahead of Freo in the draft order. like you said, 12 is probably a little overs for Judd, but we should be ruthless here and demand pick 12 ends up with us if they Freo want him. Judd is screwing us here, there is no other way to look at it. Id rather make an example of him and ruin his plans then buckle on this one.

Yeah I know mate, we got an end of second round pick for him. Send that pick with Judd to Freo for 12.

Give them Judd and the Spargo pick for 12.

We should tell them immediately that its 12 or nothing..... We are ahead of them in the PSD, so we can just draft him again and he can play for Casey for a few years.
