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

You can't say someone isn't worth pick 15 until you see the end result. You are just guessing and guessing badly I might add.

That's the case with every trade.

 

[Rooboy 96]

Haha mate I missed out on a seat on the Jacobs Jalopee(?) and other bandwagons so if this goes through I think we'll have to claim the first seats on the Anderson Airliner(TM).

I had the first or second seat on the Jacobs Jalopee, it was a fun ride.

 

[buttsauce]

No they have Brad Hill and Billy Hartung, those guys were hardly setting the world on fire and keeping players out of the 22. They also played a first year player in Howe for a few games.

So we've got a better list than hawthorn now. Lol. This keeps getting better

 

[Zondor]

What makes me laugh is if he doesnt work out 70% of you will look like fools. I've already said I'm happy to pick him up but aint willing to pay overs.

Yep. Not against bringing Anderson to the club but only in a fair trade. :stern look

I'm in Business Class already with my seat belt on and chair extended out just waiting for the great man to board! Saved the spare seat next to me for ya.

 

[Roosurgence]

We don't have a pick in the 20's

Better give them Goldstein then.

 

[SnowRoo]

Just a random point many may not have considered yet.

It is quite possible our recruiters have assessed the potential draftees and decided the gap between 15 and 40 is minimal. Has been said for a long time that the top end is quality but after that its all even and anything can happen.

Basti+41 to Bris for 21 still and option.

Still possible trades for Currie, Black and McKenzie.

Its a different and interesting year, doubly so with the new points system. At some point we need to put faith in the people the club pays good money to, to make the right decisions.

 

[sbdan]

Yeah we have blokes like Sam Gibson in our best 22. Hawthorn don't.

But he used to be a GUN playing in their 2s. Good argument!

 

[buttsauce]

Our premiership window is now. What's the point of brining in an 18 year old who may never play a senior game when we've got a ready made player with huge talent ready to go in Anderson.

 

[Deadeyeroo]

I'm saying he's worth the gamble with pick 15. Whether he turns out good or not.

I too have said he's worth the gamble but just not at that pick. F*** this weak draft bullshit, a quality player could be picked up at 15.

 

[tiltraise]

Name me 5 players who have been to 2 clubs and then taken off to be a quality player at their third?

Anderson hasnt been to 2 clubs he was zone selected then on-traded a few minutes apart,

 

[Roosurgence]

So we've got a better list than hawthorn now. Lol. This keeps getting better

No you were claiming that he can't get a game because of the magnificent 22, even a potato like Schoenmakers is now being called a gun because of the team he plays for.

Hawthorn have exceptional top end talent, that is the reason they have the better list. But their bottom end is nothing special, just like every club.

 

[Deadeyeroo]

Yep. Not against bringing Anderson to the club but only in a fair trade. :stern look

Pick 15 is overs by about 15 picks at least : stern look

Snowroo why would we do that, if the gap between 15 and 40 is minimal? is the gap between 40 and 41 pretty big? or is this one of those 22 is 16 things?

nah, he is not the difference, I have been told.

 

[Orange Peanut]

2 more for the ignore list. I like to keep an open mind and hear from all points of view but you ****ers are actually frothing at the mouth with fury, shit talking the club as though you're ****in experts, and providing no meaningful debate whatsoever.
As if this thread wasn't a struggle already i have to read psychopathic rantings insulting my footy club over a trade that isn't done.
**** the **** off.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Talk about overrating draft picks.

(see, it's not really a difficult concept, is it? Except maybe for simpletons ...)

 

[Deadeyeroo]

Oh who cares. If GWS really wanted him they would have kept him.

 

[Rooboy 96]

You mean like McLeod? do you think he could be as good?

 

[Zondor]

I too have said he's worth the gamble but just not at that pick. F*** this weak draft bullshit, a quality player could be picked up at 15.

And it's not just that. I will reiterate that Hawkthorn need our first rounder to snare Carlisle. I suggest they need to cough up a little more than just a kid who has only shown "potential" at this stage of his career for our pick 15. :stern look

 

[NarniMagic]

For those interested, here are Anderson's detailed VFL stats from this year
http://www.foxsportspulse.com/team_...=192149957&client=1-118-10469-339767-20320228

From 15 games, kicked 25 goals (6 times highest goal kicker) and was named in the bests 6 times. Mind you, this is for Box Hill who finished 1st on the ladder, meaning it would be harder to crack into the bests.

 

[Roosurgence]

nah, he is not the difference, I have been told.

But he has great VFL stats.

Bingo!

why did we not trade Clayton? and get more for Mooney and Shannon Motlop? surely they were all worth top ten picks?

 

[tiltraise]

You mean like McLeod? do you think he could be as good?

Doubt it lol
