Tom Campbell, Riley Bonner, Matthew Allison and James Van Es delisted by St Kilda.
Bit surprised by Bonner out of them.

If one accepts that Freo has front running on Bolton then Baker to the Eagles seems the highly likely scenario. However I don't see him as part of the answer to our issues and would not like to see the Eagles part with anything of value to get him. Certainly not any first or second round draft picks.

Let's hope the AFL have learned their lesson from last year with McKay... and don't give Pick 8 as compensation.

It is interesting that he apparently wants to go to Freo. Not sure Freo would want both Kosi and Bolton as I think the roles are so similar. It would be a first round pick to get him to Freo and although they have several first round picks, not sure they would want to lose another one. Peter Bell is a very clever operator however.
