Also I don't think their list is as good as people think. Top end they are ok but their middle players don't seem to be coming on - your Mustons Your Dowlers and there is quite a few more.

Also they have to be right up there with St Kilda as failures with their trading.
The decision to trade Kennedy and McGlynn have proven to be shockers!!!

Ouch thats a bit stiff on the Saints , i think good trades out way their bad ones ......schnieder, Dawson , Gardener , Dempster, jones, Gram , Milne , and most recent Peake . Dont think too many other clubs could brag about that

We never traded for Clinton Jones, he was elevated off the Rookie list.

I don't know which bad trades he is talking about though...we haven't traded off anybody of real importance since Barry Hall in the early 00's. You could say Luke Ball aswell but he wasn't getting a game with us.

Since 2004 we've brought in...

Gehrig, Gram, King, Gardener, Dempster, Schneider, Peake, Dawson, Ray...just to name a few.

I wasn't going back to 2004 just last year.

Saints traded Ball for nothing.
Lovett was pick 16 (pick 16 should produce 150+ games)
But the one that killed me was the Irish kid - now don't get me wrong I love giving people a go - but when your recruiting manager says a 17 0r 18 year old from Ireland is ranked in their top 10 - I have no choice but to laugh!!!

The above 3 decisions were all very bad and hence why I say St Kilda were in the top 3 last year for bad trade decisions!!!

Haha .

At least Peake has played well ? hehe
And Ball still cant kick over a jam tin , and is getting about 200k more at collingwood
And as for Lovett that could have happened at any club .......look at brisbane and Fev
Stkilda arent silly they know how close they are to success and cant blame them for trying
