    List Mgmt. 2024 Trade & List Management Thread - Part 3

    I don't have a huge issue what we paid for either Parker or Daniel, given they were still contracted, I just felt we should have pushed it into 2025 picks. We need KPPs far more than the Dogs or Swans do, these picks in 2024 should have held far more value for us than the other two clubs. I...

    Analysis Should we be pursuing a secondary market post-Hobart? If yes, then where?

    When we rejected the gold coast move we turned over about $25m or so from memory, we are now turning over more than $50m, obviously there is inflation to factor but the AFL rights keeps ballooning in size, AFL could easily afford to distribute more than $25m to each club but they don't for...

    I don't like that we are selling games, again.

    That is the issue, he shouldn't be heaving it out of the middle to nobody in particular, he should be looking for other mids/runners who can run and carry and pass from somewhere with a higher probability pass. When you add those to the ones he is in the open running forward, it makes him very...

    Opinion Commentary & Media VIII

    Yeah, our forward play isn't great at times but generally speaking when we move the ball through the middle with purpose there is a target to kick to and when we have connected that kick we are usually in the top quartile of turning that into a scoring opportunity. Our problem is the connection...

    He is a big part of the problem, if he works harder on hitting some targets inside 50 rather than kicking it to the opposition then he would see improvement.

    Review Round 9 v North Melbourne @ Coopers Stadium (Norwood)

    I don't think there is much difference between Crows, Lions and my team atm. I am not sure where Hawthorn is as they have had a pretty easy draw, I guess we will find out in finals. I expected this game to be close and had Crows converted better could have won. I do think teams like Geelong...

    List Mgmt. The unchecked power of player managers

    I think they should step in, it is their job to look out for the best interest of the players they manage. Had Port said Houston was a required player, contracted and we were not going to entertain any trade requests then I don't think the manager would have got involved. He signed the...

    List Mgmt. “It’s a form of tanking” the Richmond rebuild

    Whilst you can force contracted players to stay if they want out, it is usually not a great idea, especially if they extended under a previous coach. They might not be buying in to what the new coach wants to do. I think Richmond will bounce back quicker than some do... as long as they can get...

    I think it is understandable that he has reservations, he did give the club a C for the trade period and could have been a B-, he liked Parker but wasn't sure the others would have a lot of impact. I think the other two raised some good points. We will see, I think if we can get a good split...

    It is a shame we didn't pick up a future 2nd and 3rd round pick last year when we had a ton of picks and at the time and were cashing in the future pick assistance. It is as if we had no plans to pick up more mature players and we just assume we would get natural improvement. It seems from a...

    I don't know they still have Balta, Broad and Gibcus (ACL March this year). They will need to get a replacement for Broad but they key defenders are better than ours. They will have Vlastuin and Short down back, they will try and do a Sheezel and get a talented kid to play down back early on...

    If you think it will take us 2-3 years to move out of the bottom 4-6 even with Houston then it is less appealing given his age. He isn't old, but at 27 currently. But, i feel that if we actually do some weight training and put on some muscle over the pre-season and play with the post bye...

    I would have been ecstatic if we got Houston, I just didn't believe for a second we were a legitimate option. We would have had to have a Bradbury scenario happen.

    That is my point... Tucker is okay, but he isn't good. If he was good (by foot) we wouldn't need Daniels.

    Sorry, i thought i was replying to a different post. I edited my post, i meant that if Tucker was good then we wouldn't need Daniels. Tucker is a neat kick, but Daniels is a very good kick. The problem with Daniels is he is a midget, saw a game earlier in the year and the dogs got slaughtered...

    Some deals just don't happen until the last hour because clubs refuse to budge. I'd be shocked if the Parker deal doesn't happen. I think Houston would have happened only if the other clubs couldn't get a pick to get the deal done. I think it just comes down to his age and where we are at...
