Trade Proposal
« on: July 20, 2011, 09:23:30 PM »
Nathan Foley and our first draft pick

for

Ben McEvoy?

Would you do the deal?

I would.

Would Saints? A mature ruckman is cheap, McIntosh or a VFL ruckman can fit into the Saints plans as they still believe there premiership window is open. Kosi could also take number 1 ruck duties.
Foley has speed something the Saints may look back on the past 5 years and blame for the missed premierships.

Ben McEvoy is effectly a first round draft pick, but 4 years developed, so there is no need getting upset over a 1st round pick being traded, which currently is pick 12.
IMO he will be in the top 3 ruckman of the competetion at his peak.

Fits us perfectly in my opinion.

Win - Win.

I don't think Saints would settle for less.
Go Tigers!

what a ridiculously stupid proposal, so we put up a decorated player, that has reached heights at the ripe old age of 24 that has had him as a Vic player, AA squads for Ireland and you suggest we package him with a first rounder for some bum that cant string 2 good games together...sure you dont want to throw in conca to sweeten it further :lol

You clearly don't watch much football.

McEvoy is a gun. 21 this year just turned 22 2 weeks ago. A ruckman that has shouldered the number 1 duties at St.Kilda all year. Played in a couple of Grand Finals.

Averaging:
15 Disposals
5 marks
23 Hit Outs a game.

Season Highlights
- 23 disps (8 kicks 15 hballs), 11 marks and 25 hitouts in Rd 15 9-pt win over North Melbourne at Etihad Stadium (3 Jul 2011)
- 15 disps (6 kicks 9 hballs), 6 marks, 6 tackles and 37 hitouts in Rd 13 28-pt loss to Geelong at the MCG (18 Jun 2011)
- 17 disps (7 kicks 10 hballs), 6 marks, 5 tackles, 23 hitouts and a goal in Rd 12 24-pt win over the Western Bulldogs at Etihad Stadium (10 Jun 2011)
- 22 disps (8 kicks 14 hballs), 9 marks, 7 tackles and 30 hitouts in Rd 11 57-pt loss to Collingwood at the MCG (4 Jun 2011)
- 15 disps (9 kicks 6 hballs), 7 marks, 5 tackles and 21 hitouts in Rd 7 3-pt loss to Carlton at Etihad Stadium (9 May 2011)

30+ hitouts against Geelong and Collingwood.

Foley is 25 and will be 26 this year in September. Foley was a great player before his injury, he's been just OK this year.

Its a win for us. I'm more concerned with giving up the first round pick than Foley.

If we are fair dinkum we'd go for McEvoy, best young ruckman in the comp. Would take Foley and a 1st rounder for Saints to part with him
Go Tigers!

Would have to agree, 1 year older than McEvoy however.

But your right.

McEvoy is better than Leunberger and Nic Nat.
