    Does Silvagni show his versatility and add Carlton fringe guys to his shortlist too?

    The more I think about it Mitch McGovern is right up St.Kilda's alley.

          Well that is a blow to their off field recruiting. I wonder why?

                Adding SOS to a club that has tried to trade their way into a rebuild is a dangerous move.
                It's not fringe GWS guys he'll seek out, it's fringe Carlton guys. Some of them are decent footballers who I like watching (Fisher, Cuningham) but not the types you build a club around.

                  I listened to a lot of trade radio last year and SOS was on there a fair bit and while I think he did a good job when he was at Carlton and got plenty of deals done in terms of trades etc I was really surprised that he was so far off the mark on his knowledge of how deals might be struck last year. The way he valued picks vs players was way off. Clearly he hadn't stayed on top on the changes in the footy world during his time away from the list management.

                  He will get back up to speed quickly enough.

                    Stephen Silvagni has turned to Carlton’s VFL list to address St Kilda’s shortage of tall forwards.


                    19yo Anthony Caminiti has been added to the Saints’ squad and will trial for the vacant list spot before the February 15 deadline

                      And so it begins. I heard Fev has dusted off his boots in anticipation.

                        He really does his homework; a vast network of spies at his behest.

                            He's been a bloody good pick up for them. Hopefully he can add some more versatility to his game. Exciting pack mark.

                              Not getting along with Ross the boss? Wouldn't be the first time.

                                It's pretty crazy how many of the saints' current best players have come from nowhere. Steele, Sinclair, Wilkie, Marshall, Wood all either rookies or delistings. Now this guy is becoming one of their most exciting forwards. Just a pinch behind Cordy.
