    How about Melbourne's second rounder pick 20 that will end up at 22/23. Melbourne not in Jone's frame because Saints are offering bigger $.

    Maybe Saints 2020 first and we can add back some of those later 2019 picks we currently hold which Saints would be grateful for and we probably won't use.

    I think it’s frustrating that the Melbourne media decides Jones is only worth a second rounder because he turns the ball over by foot. Presumably the same is true of Dylan Shiel?

    Shiel is a far better player than Jones

    He’s better , but if he is worth two first rounders surely Jones is worth 1 , a later one.

    Shiel was/is not worth two first rounders.

    Looks like Rowell has booked in the number one pick. In the NAB League GF, his stats were 44 disposals, 9 tackles, 2 goals and 170 DT points.

    Think you can just forget about getting a first rounder for Jones because we aren’t going to get one

    He’s worth about 22-28 and that’s roughly what we should end up with if he goes

    The Saints have no second-round picks to trade (we've already got that pick off them for Hannebery).

    Maybe we get the Saints' 2020 second-round pick? Seems a fair trade, especially if we want to stock up on future picks so we can match bids next year on our two Academy prospects.

    He's a gun alright. On ABC Grandstand they gave his half time stats.....which IIRC were 29 disposals, 5 tackles and two goals and his team were 55 pts up!

    Numero Uno.....

    AA midfielder , but regardless , 2 first round picks is what Essendon paid for him so if he’s not worth that you can tell that to them .

    More useful to us will be a player traded in then a pick mid 20s I would suspect re Jones

    Hence the possibility mentioned already

    Jones to saints
    Stevens to cats
    Constable to Swans ?

    We save some serious $ ie Jones vs Constable contract would be minimum $300k pa

    Constable does have the capacity to be a cut off defender or inside mid at 191cm
