It's at what cost?

So the cost of pick seven, I think it was, for Sam Flanders is a discussion, right?

That's a worthy chat.

You can argue that.

But the rest are financial costs, aren't they?

There's no real draft impact from those guys.

So if there's no draft impact, I think you roll on.

Every team at this stage of their development cannot play without Nassir Wanganemura, Liam Ryan's important for them.

Jack Higgins, they're game changers for this team.

They're so critical.

St Kilda are not at the stage where they can have three of their top players

I would say that Nassir and Jack Higgins would be two of their top four players.

They're not at a stage where they can cope with not having those guys as part of the selected 23.

All right, so I'll give you some evidence of what's happened over the last 18 months.

So Nassau Wangene Miller in 2024 was ranked the 84th AFL player.

Went to 11th last year, sits 14th at the moment.

So that's tracking beautifully for 2028.

I'm looking at 2028.

Max Hall is now a top 40 player in the competition.

Hugo Garcia has gone from 260-odd last year to 54.
