List Mgmt. 2016 Free Agency/Trades/Draft thread Part 2

[WaynesWorld19]

Two years ago.

It was a 5 year contract ? .....guess that was before Silvani came back to Carlton, who obviously has a different viewpoint now to the previous list Manager .......suggest Carlton initiated, not player initiated .....despite public appearances

Bit like the sacked player, that announces he no longer has the drive for arduous PS training, and has decided to retire

 

[Ramify]

He did? .....not being too serious here, but given Carlton only won 7 games for the season ....it wasn't often

He had a cracking first half of the season.
If we get him we play him in the 2s for the first half of the year to DeCarltonise and let Dmac warm his spot, then bang Gibbs at full throttle going into finals.

 

[whitey_1975]

Too old. Too fat.

Nah, I really wish we would give him a go. But he has no worth on the.open market.

Your probably right but that would be my top offer if I was the crows (Carlton are apparently interested in him) I would offer 13 alone then Grigg as "steak knives".

 

[Crowbots are dead]

Bicks is an idiot.

hes 28 next year. No way he's worth any more

 

[Vhaluus]

You're thinking Gibbs 4 years ago, this year he became a game winning elite mid.

You can't deny that.

I'm sorry but I can deny that. I watched a lot more Carlton games than most this year and I've gone back and rewatched quite a few since the Gibbs rumors started up.

When I rewatched the Rockliff games my opinion of him went up.

When I watched the Gibbs game my opinion of him went down.

He was soft, he was a one way runner and he wasn't game breaking on a consistent basis. When the blues were doing well Gibbs looked good, but when they started to struggle his damage just fell away.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

His wife comes back to Adelaide a lot, now they are parents with both of their families here hopefully they want to move back.

Bryce's dad was a great footballer and I think he played about 350 wafl/SANFL games over about 13 years from memory, hopefully Bryce takes after his dad in games played!

That seems very logical

 

[GreyCrow]

Not long to 10,000

 

[Ramify]

Your probably right but that would be my top offer if I was the crows (Carlton are apparently interested in him) I would offer 13 alone then Grigg as "steak knives".

Isnt he uncontracted though?
Do we have any control over what Grigg does?

 

[Ramify]

hes 28 next year. No way he's worth any more

Agreed. I Think Lyons and 13 is overs.

 

[rezagun]

Now here is a kid that would fit the Blues age profile.

Wigg and 13 for Gibbs. Done.

No thanks

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Now here is a kid that would fit the Blues age profile.

Wigg and 13 for Gibbs. Done.

That is a very good suggestion. I'd love to see him get a game for us but I fear we will refuse to play him for years and he will go the same way as kerridge.

 

[CrouchPowa]

Not long to 10,000

10,000!

 

[Ramify]

No thanks

Think he will step up to A-grader in the next 2 years?

 

[conVINCEd]

I think we're drafting pretty well so I'd back our team in to get another gun at that spot and that gun will be playing for years after Gibbs retires. That's called smart list management.

And how does that 2016 draftee help us win a flag in 2017/18 by being a top three midfielder in our side in those years?

 

[adelaidecrows]

Now here is a kid that would fit the Blues age profile.

Wigg and 13 for Gibbs. Done.

I would keep Wigg. I would trade Lyons for a 2nd rounder, Trade Grigg and that 2nd rounder to Carlton for Gibbs. He is just not worth any more then that. Trade CEY for a 2nd rounder.

 

[arsene wenger1]

Bryce had a baby and his wife is from Adelaide. Apparently wants to move back home to be close to family.

Familiar story? Hopefully we can be on the right side for once.

Well if it's for family reasons Carlton should let him go for a 3rd rounder (Geelong logic)

 

[Malifice]

let Dmac warm his spot, then bang Gibbs at full throttle going into finals.

Are... we still talking about footy?

 

[morris086]

When I watched the Gibbs game my opinion of him went down.

He was soft, he was a one way runner and he wasn't game breaking on a consistent basis. When the blues were doing well Gibbs looked good, but when they started to struggle his damage just fell away.

Which games did you watch? he looked really good against the cats.

 

[Hank93]

Can't question the passion of our board!

Part 3 coming up.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

He had a cracking first half of the season.
If we get him we play him in the 2s for the first half of the year to DeCarltonise and let Dmac warm his spot, then bang Gibbs at full throttle going into finals.

Lol. Are you seriously suggesting that Gibbs would start in our SANFL side and Mackay would continue in the seniors in his stead. You're taking the piss, surely?
