List Mgmt. 2016 Trade and Free Agency Targets Part 1

[Glen Buterol]

Maybe...

What in your opinion does our list lack?

I don't think your list is lacking, it's fairly even across the board. Perhaps one weakness is a kfp to help/replace Cloke. Moore might be your man. I think the list needs time to develop & keep adding quality through the trade & draft. 10 wins last year, I see this year similar or slightly less.

O'meara is sadly done

No-one will ever see his best

Saints wont chase him at all im

God I hope you are right

I feel a player like Whitfield in a saints jumper playing home games at Etihad every week would unlock his potential.
I know the dogs are keeping tabs on him at the moment but feel saints could offer a lot more.

i think this is what will probably happen. i dont think people realise how bad his knee is

Saints need raw pace if they are going to stay at etihad.
A stephen hill pure pace type

Trade scenario:

Recieve: hoskin-elliot, GWS 2nd round pick

Lose: 1st round pick, 3rd round pick?

Doesn't really get us that star is the only thing. But gives us the type of midfielder we need plus gets us back into the 2nd round of the draft next year

we need:
1) big bodied mid ala mundy/cripps/oliver
2) elite pace winger ala brad hill/stephen hill
3) tall fwd flanker with pace thinking WHE here
4) ruck fwd

 

[Rors]

Don't think WHE is going anywhere. Signed a 2yr extension last year on the back of his Sydney-based girlfriend having him seriously under the thumb.

I'd be happy to trade 2017 1st round pick for Whitfield this year, then reassess our list at the end of the 2017 season to maybe trade away someone to get back into the 1st round

WHE is very ordinary, wouldn't even consider offering a first round pick for him.

We are hoping Freeman fills that need

Unfortunately we have a number of holes hopefully we fill them over the next year or two. Carlisle will certainly help.

Then I would hate to think how you rate 80% of our list... WHE is very talented.

 

[Choomah]

WHE hasnt shown enough for a first rounder

Built like a 10 year old girl, do not want.

Didn't we already have a massive crack at him and hasn't he signed on for a couple more years

 

[Choomah]

Has he ever gotten over 20 touches?

 

[Glen Buterol]

Has he ever gotten over 20 touches?

I don't know. He kicked a bag once & has showed a bit of potential unfortunately too inconsistent for mine. Massive pass.

No

Go after a gun

You get Carlisle and HGoddard as def

Bruce and Paddy mcc as fwds

Get best big mid possible

Most sides don't have 2 power fwds and 2 power defenders.
Hawks dont
Swans dont
West Coast dont
Pies dont
Cats Do

Imho you have the ends just chase pure class in your mids. Your so called average mids and flankers will look 100 times better when surrounded by class

If that's right, and not Josh Kelly I can give you one solid reason why it might be legit...

Scotch College Class of 2013: Jack Billings, Jack Sinclair... Jake Kelly.

We've recruited White/Rice, Gresham/O'Kearney, Goddard/McCartin/Lonie, and Billings/Sinclair; I think they've drafted mates too often now for it to be coincidental and NOT a specific puzzle piece of the overall plan.

Maybe the idea is they're more likely to gel together as a team?

Who's Jake Kelly?

Son of Craig. Former Adelaide rookie; 189cm 88kg.

Good honest, disciplined 3rd tall defender. Nicknamed 'the Raging Bull'; allegedly had to be told to tone it down at training!

Athletic without being particularly quick, and a good intercept mark, but kicking can be a little iffy (although it's vastly improved).

Incidentally, Craig is a former 8 year teammate of Richo...

 

[saintsrfreak]

Another half back?

 

[Barrels]

Another half back?

I assume that's directed at me?

Yep; probably a more like-for-like Dempster replacement than anyone we've got at the moment.

White's more of an offensive weapon first, as are Webster and Roberton.

Can't say I'm desperate to get it done, but I can see the idea behind it (assuming the mails right).
