List Mgmt. 2015 Trade & Free Agency Hellscape Discussion Thread (PG546: Anderson PG732: Bastinac)

[Zondor]

Did I hear this right? North are willing to trade pick 15 for Jed Anderson to receive pick 41 back.

Are North f****** crazy? Who is running the club atm?

Ken Bruce. :stern look

 

[Thewlis Dish]

Any one got knowledge on Anderson's tank and footskills?

Tank needs work, skills are very good according to an avid Box Hill watcher mate of mine.

 

[RobZombie]

Here's my prediction for the Anderson deal:

15 + 34 ---> Anderson + 18

I'd be happy enough with that, assuming we can replace 34 via an outgoing player. Would like to think we could bring in a pick better than 34 with what we appear to have on the table.

Is Buckley handing out wristies at these player approaches or something? Landing just about everyone he chases the last couple of years with nothing much to indicate why.

I bet you though that was gel that made his hair so rigid......

I suspect he's a very persuasive and compelling speaker when he can be frank in a one on one. Say what you like about FIGJAM, but he's certainly an asset to their recruiting department.

So they signed the deal already?

Oh wait.....

 

[kangaspurs]

Hardly ready to get a senior spot in our side either.

The club would be better off packaging that pick up with another high draft pick and giing after Prestia.

Yep. We should definitely go for another inside mid, that's certainly what we need. Anderson is everything we are lacking and the way you're talking about him anyone would think he's only got a couple of years left before retirement. Anderson could have an instant impact next year and still be a 10 year player; anyone picked at 15 may not even play next year. Anderson is the best of both worlds. This aging list nonsense is a complete fallacy, we have a very good group of footballers under 25 and Anderson will add to that.

 

[Deadeyeroo]

from where?

From next years draft.

Not worth even trying to reason with that guy.

 

[Deadeyeroo]

I think this is typical media garbage. Theres no way the club is dumb enough to give pick 15 for Anderson. It has to be bullshit.

 

[Aussie_Roo]

Has Anderson come out and said he wants to play for us? I thought he nominated West Coast. I know players can change their minds, but I haven't heard anything from him or his manager about wanting to come to us.

 

[Dan]

I'm ok with it provided we get something else back.......not 41

 

[Tas]

Jed's a gun. He has everything I like in a young footballer. Genuinely flat he's going.

Serious question, how come he could only get 4 games given the games other players were getting ahead of him and his form in the VFL for Box Hill?

 

[scooby1279]

you will think the saints will come up with another deal to satisfy Essendon...

 

[buttsauce]

We're in no position to be trading 1st round picks especially with the age of the list, and the caliber of player in question.

Scott is getting desperate to land someone.

How old is Anderson? Lol

 

[ozzyoslo]

Not sure what to read into this..

Theyre chasing one player this year I guess.

Give it a rest mate. You don't like or agree with the supposed deal. We get it!!

Just an example maybe Josh Kelly then. Trade for an A grader not a f****** D grader.

 

[Only Forwards]

From next years draft.

Prestia is contracted until 2016

We currently have pick 15, based upon this year and last year we woudl be looking at a pick in the teens next year.

You are suggesting that 15 and some pick in the teens would be enough to satisfy Gold Coast to part with a contracted player?

I doubt it.

My guess is the deal goes through.

And Anderson becomes the replacement whipping boy of LA.

Then we can have a new duo of Gibson/Anderson to whine about.

And he hasn't even pulled on a jumper in anger yet.

Welcome to the 2nd circle of hell Jed.

 

[Zondor]

You would think however the deal that Hawthorn are attempting to broker relies on a perceived stupidity that we are willing to give up pick 15 in essence for Anderson. Hopefully we aren't that stupid. :stern look

 

[Tas]

Howe to Collingwood

"We’ve just spoken off-air to Jeremy Howe’s manager Ben Niall, who confirmed he has agreed to move to the Pies. Buckley relationship the key"

Does he want the top or bottom? :stern look

 

[Roos29]

How I see the jed trade;
Would anyone else trade a pick 15 for a 21 yro Kieran Harper that has averaged 18 touches in the vfl through out the year?
I sure as hell would.

 

[generalleftfield]

How many more times has he been sub compared to Garner?

2 OF 4 games this year Anderson was sub and 5 of 10 for his career.

 

[Arathrawn]

I think we should back in our recruiters. We have always been adamant about using our first round pick but this your we seem eager to trade out our highest pick and are looking at every player available.

This tells me we don't rate this draft at all so maybe pick 15 for a player who fills exactly what we need isn't a bad deal at all.
