Analysis 2017 List Management Discussion

We're going to need to get a good deal for Gibbs to execute any deal involving Shiel, Kennedy, Kelly or Hopper while maintaining a first round pick.

The Giants will definitely be in the market for top 15 picks though.

I think we'll get a 10 to 15 Pick for Gibbs and it should get done this time as Crows have had a rehearsal and the option of adding our 1st or 2nd rounder 2018 too if what's available is of interest.
With the calibre and amount of young kids comming to GWS academy in 2017 I'm sure it will test the loyalty of a few more established quality players in their fold.

Shiel and Patton for 5 + 12?

Cunning plan by SOS.

In 2 more years we will have acquired the entire GWS side.

Can't see us getting much more for Gibbs than what was offered this year. It will be a late first rounder and if we really push, maybe a late 2nd rounder. He will be a year older after all.

Interested to see how we go pushing for one of their young guns. Have we heard many rumours from decent sources? I would think it would be tough to pry away any A grade young players via trade.

Then you can rule us out of top-tier trade then. Look for us to try and scoop up names like Finlayson and A. Kennedy, maybe one of Hopper and M. Kennedy if they're still sitting outside the first 22, and if GWS are keen on a future first.

I don't see us accepting just the straight teens pick. Adelaide can just sign him as a free agent for 2019.

 

[El Topo]

Not sure Gibbs will be going to Adelaide after how badly they burned him.

We can run our Carlton team in the VFL.

GWS has accumulated huge amounts of talent, the allocation and distirbution top end talent is dispropontional.
Its any wonder that there's a constant migration of talent to other teams, it will contiune, it just the equitable redistribution.
Its a matter of offering best remuneration and working enviornment simple whats all the consternation about?
Next trade period its our turn.

Shiel and Patton for 5 + 12?

Done although I'd prefer 12 and 2018 first

I think we won't have any option if FA looms large. Hopefully the crows bomb just a little so its 11-13. We'll see. If his old dick head of a player manager wasnt a dick head, he would already be a crow.

Who are you confident could be part of our next premiership side?

 

[thylacine60]

Cripps, Silvagni, SPS, Marchbank, McKay, Docherty, Weitering, Cuningham (?) C. Curnow.

I only have genuine confidence in Weitering, Cripps and Docherty at this stage, but yes some promise on that list.

You forgot Byrne and Plowman too btw.

 

[thylacine60]

There's a place not far that'll help you out, it's just a shot away

 

[MightyMighties]

Cripps, Silvagni, SPS, Marchbank, McKay, Docherty, Weitering, Cuningham (?) C. Curnow.

Just out of interest, if Silvagni was to be part of our next premiership side, how many times in VFL/AFL history has there been three generations all play in premiership teams for the same side?
