List Mgmt. 2015 Trade, Draft, Rookie Draft and FA Megathread

[Verdun]

Reckon we are too late to get Weller - if were able to do; it would be a sensational trade period

 

[The_Steadier]

Why on earth have freo put all their eggs in the McCarthy basket?
Surely they have a plan B right?

 

[Verdun]

@traderadio: JUST IN: Nick Gieschen has just arrived - the manager of Adam Tomlinson
#NABTradeRadio


McCarthy looking more and more unlikely. So no lachie

Unlike

Damn Collingwood's midfield is ridiculous

Very happy with our spine though!!

Shane Kersten.

 

[SK_MD_#7]

GWS willing to trade anyone it seems except McCarthy who has requested the trade lol

 

[L_W_P]

Far out, how are we going to compete with Pies midfield in the next 10 years?

They wont have any draft picks so this is it for them. Start winning with this group or blow it up and start again.

 

[FQFjt]

We are many elite midfielders short of the required standard.

 

[Verdun]

Need this bloke to play some games:

what happened to our trade? i thought we were supposed to get 14 and 44 and sydney 24 & 25?

We sure are... We don't have any under 25 IMO.

I see Newnes as a James Kelly type who would play his best footy off the backline, Webster and Roberton are classy defenders who wouldn't have the same impact on the wings and I still see Billings as a flanker long term.

After Armitage and Steven we have a huge drop off... We need at least a couple of Dunstan, Acres, Ross, McKenzie and our upcoming first rounds to become genuine a graders and we will probably need to poach a couple more.

How did Collingwood trade a 2016 rnd 2 pick if they already traded their 2016 rnd 1 pick?

Yep - good to know we have one area of development not the whole list like 2-3 years ago

We really cannot afford Billings to be anything less than an elite genuine midfielder.

 

[Baker_for_PM]

The signings of Aish and Treloar just makes our job easier next year in getting Sidebottom.

 

[CHBench]

Collingwood have an awesome midfield, but their spine won't be much chop in a few years.

Cloke, 29.
Jesse White, lol.
Reid, injury prone.
Nathan Brown, meh.
Keefe, PED's.
Grundy, good.

Forgot about Darcy Moore, good one. Very similar to the Dogs.

 

[DT_35]

Cmon GWS you scumbags let the boy go home!!!

 

[Armoooo]

Agreed, there is no way I thought we would have this sort of list so early. Smart business to get the talls first as well, by the time we get the mids they should all peak around the same time.

TBF.

We got 14 and Carlisle back from 5 and 24. Swans ended up getting 24 from us, Essendon didn't end up having to give a second rounder in the end.

 

[CHBench]

TBF.

Yeah forgot him. They're very fortunate they got a leg up with that one.

 

[The Jack Pack]

Just over 1 hour left...

 

[sasaint]

This trade period has been a spectacular car crash. Please get the Pelican back in. Clearly the current team is not up to it.

Lol you serious

The Pelican?
The same guy that said we should pay overs & trade pick 5 in a swap for Carlisle?

Yeah no worries.
