List Mgmt. 2024 List Management thread - Trade Targets Part 2

[DeadEyeJye]

We don't even need an exemption. Amiss and Erasmus in 2021 covers us for 2024 and 2025 trade periods.

It's 2 in a 4 year period though isn't it? Not 2 in 5. So Amiss and Erasmus cover us this year but not 2025 because we won't have taken a 1R pick in 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025.

I don’t think Ollie Murphy would require much convincing to be steak knives

It's 2 in the 4 years prior to trade period. For the 2025 trade period, the relevant draft years are 2021-22-23-24. Here is an article from 2018 discussing how Essendon satisfy the rule for the 2019 trade period based on 2015 intake.

Can we add Brodie as well.

Would Fyfe and Walters retire if we got both?

You’d think so

Thinking Knobel could be involved tbh. Melbourne would be quite keen to get a replacement for Max Gawn

. They'd need to draft said replacement soon or they're relying on trading. Getting a guy with two years development would just be a bonus.

Isn't ideal for us but Reidy can remain as our depth ruck and we draft someone to develop with whatever scraps we have left. You do that if it helps Pickett come through the door.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

The let down when we don't get Pickett and it's "ONLY" Bolton...

 

[Taylor]

If I were either of them, I wouldn't. You could play four games in 2025 and one might be the grand final and suddenly you've got a medal.

I hate it, but I'd accept it.

We seem to be able to identify and develop rucks pretty well, so no doubt we'd find a replacement.

Odin Jones could probably cover, and Kuek has done stints anyway

What reason would they have to retire if they thought they could contribute?
Not many people throw away money either haha

 

[Heave Ho Bro]

One flaw with this is we must use one of our firsts this year.

For Bolton and Kozzie, id trade 9,10, & 26 and a future 2nd.

We will need to use 17.
Getting these two will make getting Warner in 2025 hard.

But right now Warner is a what if. No guarantee. If Kossie and Shai 100% want to come you just have to do it and worry about Warner next year if it happens at all.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I just dont see any world where you get all 3 over 2 years. Warner is staying or going to WC if we get these two but you have to be comfortable with that.

 

[wakojako]

Damn trading the future first would really hurt, Warner my precious

 

[ignoramus]

F**k me. 70 pages since Sunday's game. Read a fair chunk — lots of bemoaning our list, debate over whether Winder would be a better option than Bolton, and worrying that Baker might choose WC over us. Was chewing up too much work time, so had to stop around 4 yesterday afternoon and just skip straight to the end this morning.

What have I missed?

I'm good with it. If Warner was 100% happening you'd have to think about it but it's very likely he just stays in Sydney. No brainer for me. Get these 2 now.

We have locked in Pickett, Bolton, Warner and Sam Taylor for Switta, Murphy and Winder

We can do it.
Next year, Warner out of contract. Salary might be tight but I’d be looking at chopping the Banfield, etc anyone on short contracts above minimum wage

We’re gonna win the premiership next year and Richmond/Melbourne are going to pay for it

is that all? Hardly worth the effort

Nah, no way. You'd have to lose Brayshaw to have the money and we aren't losing Brayshaw.

Just need to shed someone. I vote Cox.

If Darcy still has 3 chins this time next year we should move him on.

 

[Lach72]

All of these smoothed 5-6 year deals making a whole lotta sense right now

He's ain't leaving and we don't push best 22 players out that want to play for us

 

[Alfonz]

If I were Fyfe, I'd be thinking long and hard about making a personal sacrifice to free up some money to get the salaries of Bolton/Pickett over the line. Every 100k helps. If he's on 400k then he could offer to play on for 100k. He's made millions from playing and investments (e.g. Pirate Life). Should be set for life.

Bit more difficult for Sonny, as he would have made good coin along the way, but nowhere near as much as Fyfe. But we could strike a deal to employ him long term as an assistant coach from 2026 onwards (or 2025 if he retires) at an inflated salary.
