Re: Psd

We're probably struggling to hit minimum salary cap expenditure!

Even if that was the case, is he worth a million a year? I'm firmly in the no camp.

Not to mention the last time we got a KPF forward who didn't want to play with us, it didn't work out well at all.

We are in a fantastic position to renegotiate some contracts and set us up for the next few seasons. That's all we need to focus on.

Re: Psd

If we were back in the market to get Kurt Tippett who would we have to give up?

No-one, just whoever else would've taken his spot on the list e.g. Bate

Here's one for those that understand next years draft a bit.

Can we take Tippet in the PSD (I understand he'll nominate terms, so that may be an issue re: tenure), & then trade him to Sydney at next years trade week for their first round selection?

Don't see why not. Why trade him though?

Re: Psd

Prismall appears to be heading our way. So its likely to both Prismall and Lower with our two picks.

Ugh. Please Essendon, have a change of heart.

By the sounds of it, it is him who is walking.

I know. They were always keen to keep him though. We're going to have to take him with our first pick now so will Freo take Lower if available? I'd be disgusted if we missed him because we decided to take someone who'll need a wheel chair a few weeks into the season.

Agreed - if we get both, I won't be too disappointed - this wouldn't seem likely to me.

Re: Psd

It's been a few weeks of good news stories with our recent footy dept. appointments, positive feedback from the draft and Cooney on the mend.... but the report that we will be taking Prismall in the PSD doesn't fit into this category.

Hopefully he surprises, but I can't see him doing much at all.

Re: Psd

It's as if McCartney and co are intent on building a great culture with good characters and that is seen as Prismall's value over and above his potential to contribute on field.
I am not one to pit my judgement above that of McCartney and co so I accept what they determine and wait to see the benefits.

That would be crazy if true.

First and foremost we are a footy team whose primary objection is to win games of footy... Whilst it's nice to have a group of men who are good characters, our main goal should be to have a group of good to very good footballers.

If he offered a point of difference then he'd might be worth taking a flyer on, but a one paced mostly inside mid who is often injured fills precisely no gap on our list. I just don't see why we'd chase him.

Re: Psd

I think he has some genuine talent and now has three clubs after him. We all have doubts as to his injuries etc and also the fact that he is perhaps another inside mid but I think he can be more of an outside runner.

Re: Psd

I'm a bit confused by the delisted player free agency ruling in the lead up to the pre season draft.

Reports indicate that Dylan Roberton has been signed by the Saints on the 29th Nov as a delisted free agent.

Does this latest signing still mean St Kilda must use a PSD selection for him or is this outside the PSD process ? Not that I'm at all suggesting it but could we still select Roberton with our PSD pick given that ours is before St Kilda's or is he now St Kilda's regardless. Assuming the latter, what's stopping Nick Lower for example signing with us like Roberton did with St Kilda pre the PSD ?

Just looking for a bit of clarification on the process for delisted free agents and the PSD as the AFL is wanting in its lack documentatin to the public on these matters.

Re: Psd

Lol! That would be hilarious!
Do you know something, or just being absurd?

No, I'm just being silly.
