Lukosius will be a very good player for Port

Luko to JHF will be lethal

All good average players but nothing more
I don’t see how it strengthens their side losing Dixon and now Houston

Would rate Lukosious as better option than Esava , also doubts over Marshall with his recent concussion issues especially with Lukosious now playing in home state so he will most likely improve like Horne-Francis and Rankine who are better players for coming back to their home state .

Some of you Port people need to watch a few of Jacks games.
He's absolute class and now he's back home id expect his game to go to the next level.

Stoked to get Houston.
Gets us back in the window.
But I'd rather have grabbed Lukosious if I had a choice.

I see the swans are just as proactive during the trade period as they are grand final.

The pressure on Lukosius will be next level
Tough gig being their main forward
Good luck to him though

If kens got any brains he'll play in Houstons spot.
Plays his best football when he's engaged.
Can tend to float as a forward and can go missing.

I don’t think enough has been spoken about that Port has picked Rory Atkins by their choice
July 11th 2012....

Like all trades we will know the winner in 12-24 months

If Lukosuis and Richard’s reach their potential Port are clear winners.

If Port and Collingwood struggle and GC get two top 10 picks next year they would be the winner. If they get two top ten picks could almost try splitting them for a number one or two pick.

Hard to see how Collingwood wins this one. Houston would need a couple more years at AA level to be the winners.

Houston is elite.
I was hoping Carlton would get him and was prepared to pay overs to get him.

He is but he has to do that at Collingwood now. If they get the best of him they will be happy with the trade in hindsight.

Gold Coast will again next year be looking to trade down with these first round picks for Points for their academy kids again , believe they have at least a couple in next years draft one of which is tipped to go pick 1

Agree it always takes a couple of years to see who wins in trades as players need to settle into new club and also for any draft picks to come on
