Saints must be very confident he wants to stick around for the long haul.Next year it could come down to what his after money or premiership. I cant see saints offering better opportunity on either of though two options compared to what other clubs can. Pretty sure under free agency clubs will compensated in a similar way to clubs loosing uncontracted players to the new teams.

Wonder if Bate will end up with us
you do have a fixation with Master Bate, dont you jacko?
Master Bate's is useless, doesn't go hard, flops at the hard work, heard he has troubles performing in front of big crowds too . . . pass

A first round and 2nd round for Goddard. Would think pick 15, 22 and Hampson is the same as Pick 10 and 18ish.
From a source from Carlton:Blues are chasing our 1st round pick 15, have offered Kane Lucas, with the condition that the deal only gets done if Goddard is brought to Carlton.So basically Carlton want us to agree with the deal so they can pitch a package to St.Kilda including the pick 15 as a sweetner. Word is the package will be Hampson, Calrton 1st pick and Pick 15 for Goddard.Lucas then comes to Richmond.Lucas struggled this year.. He's probably worth Pick 15 though in a weak draft.Deal doesn't get done on its own though, not a straight swap, only done in a three way deal.
Bate goes OK. Would be a similar player to Grigg IMO, but a forward version.He's an upgrade on the stock we have currently and is in the age bracket of our A Graders. If we can get him for nicks or for one of our dead weight players it's a positive.Bate can play, would be an upgrade on Morton's spot.
