    Now Sam says:


    Don't reckon St Kilda really cares what pick it gets for Josh Bruce, because it'll go to Sydney for Zak Jones. Swans saying pick 32 won't get Jones done. Dogs also have have 51.


    Could Dogs send 32+51 to St Kilda for Bruce and then Saints on-trade those picks to Sydney for Jones?

      Not good news.
      What do you expect Dodoro Jr to say? Asked if he is comfortable to let Keath walk out for nothing? He didn't say yes.

        Cros seem to think it's likely.

        Suns have released a statement that they are prepared to take Jack Martin at pick 1 in the PSD, interesting. Could see a few deals fall over today.

          I'd be interesting in what they want for Martin, and if he'd play with us. It was three weeks ago we really wanted him, with $700,000 reasons a year to play for us.

            Would pick 13 do it, and is he worth it?

              We thought he was worth it three ago. Meeting Bevo before our final, getting a huge 5 X $700,000 contract. Pick 13 would, but would need a future pick back.

                Would prevent Adelaide from requesting 13 anymore if we did use it on Martin. I'm a fan

                  But potentially blocks GC from using their pre-season draft pick on Martin and not Keath (I HIGHLY doubt it all actually escalates that far).

                    Check. Mate.

                    GCS have currently got in 2020: two first rounders, two second rounders, a third rounder, two fourth rounders.

                    One of the second rounders, ideally GCS selection but also Brisbane's which they have would be very handy next year. And they still have a war chest next year and Pick 13 this year.

                    Not likely to happen, but we were apparently the runner up for his services. If he can't get to Carlton, maybe he'd come over. Stranger things have happened.

                        Surely Dodoro Jr takes 45. The next off ramp and last off ramp needs to be 45 & 53.

                        Fremantle (Pick 22), Hawthorn (Pick 30) & Port (Pick 29) are ripe for a draft picks trade where Adelaide could use 45, 53 and their 49 to go after a 20's pick in a draft point trade later on.

                        Any demand more than that is enough for us to walk away. They can have pick 49 if Keath goes for nothing, or maybe pick 22 by pick trading with out picks. Their choice.

                          A crows supporting mate informs me that Nicks is keen on Keath and they will palm away offers and offer him three years post trade period. Think he heard it on local radio, so grain of salt stuff.

                            Don't quote me, but I think it was reported somewhere he did while he was down in Melbourne. But agree with the sentiments, and Power has his hands full about now already.

                              That's very disappointing to hear, you should pick a better class of mates

                                So the outstanding big possible trades are Bruce, Keath, Daniher, Papley and Martin?
