List Mgmt. 2019 Draft and Trade Hypotheticals Thread

[Heeney2Franklin]

Sam Murray has been released by Collingwood. Let's get him back to the Swans!
22yro from Wodonga. Came into the Swans NEAFL as a small forward, but made a name for himself as a back

Why would you want him back?

 

[RobbieK]

Why would you want him back?

Because he could be a direct replacement for Jones off the half back line/wing?

He looked pretty good for Collingwood before his suspension.

 

[Opts]

This daniher situation is bizarre... the silence can be taken as indication for both staying and going

Schrodinger's Daniher.

Schrodinger's Daniher.

Post of the thread! Gold!

 

[Wolfgang West]

We don

Why get Harley on trade radio he has no idea

He thought we were a top 4 list this year

Ok I'll Bite King.

When the **** did he say that ? If he indeed did say that he should be restrained, lead out of the offices of the SCG in a straight jacket and taken to the nearest Nuthouse. Oh ! And when the sedation wears off tell him he is sacked !

You know, or you assume?

"Durak has been a popular and hard-working member of our group but due to a number of injury setbacks was unable get his body ready for the rigours of AFL football"

hmmm, says if we had a decent injury run we would be 'thereabouts'. Not exactly saying he thinks we have a top 4 list last year. But I note you say it was a different article.

In fairness to Harley, in the last 3 games that Franklin played - WCE, Hawthorn, Saints - we did look like a top 8 side.

 

[Punts]

We were far from a top 4 side imo

Were we finished was a reflection of were we are at imo

I reckon we are nuts not going after Elliot

I agree mate but you Throw Franklin into that side on a regular basis & a genuine ruckman all be it he is no star to at least give some service to the midfield and I still think we are better than St Kilda, North, Fremantle and possibly on their form this year Adelaide. That has you in a group just missing the 8 with Hawthorn and Port. A year under the belt of a few of those young blokes, like Blakey, Rowbottom and Dawson and some further improvement from blokes like Florent and Hayward and the 8 is not that far away. Top 4 nowhere near though.
Lose Papley and Jones without replacing them with ready made equals and what I have just said here should be taken as seriously as Harley's claim we were a top 4 list this year. Like I said very important this trade period for Us.

Do we know how much he’s asking?

 

[Wolfgang West]

Nuts doesn't quite cover it to be honest.

 

[Mick Oxlong]

Just get Harley on Trade radio and put it blunt to him seems easier than speculating on what if's.

Unless Harley is declining to talk dunno.

Harley isn’t the list manager

 

[Tedeski]

I reckon we are nuts not going after Elliot

He is having 600K thrown at him, he'll want more to go interstate.

 

[Tedeski]

Sorry, that's according to reports when Brisbane showed interest.

 

[The King!]

I reckon we are nuts not going after Elliot

maybe we did?

 

[DavyRed]

"Durak has been a popular and hard-working member of our group but due to a number of injury setbacks was unable get his body ready for the rigours of AFL football"

Oh, okay, I’d incorrectly read your original post as suggesting he didn’t put the required effort in to rehab so the Swans ditched him. No worries.

 

[robbieando]

Harley isn’t the list manager

He isn't even the Football Manager anymore. Charlie Gardner and Kinnear Beatson are the people in charge of the list now

 

[tombomb]

Elliot looks to me like a guy who is just trying to leverage a better contract from his existing club.

Would be very surprised if he leaves collingwood.

 

[TheWhiteRhino]

People forget Elliot is a huge injury risk. We already have one Menzel, we don't need another.

 

[Bandicoot]

Tomlinson nominated for RFA and Cutler wanting to be traded.

Both would be good but.... likely to go to vic.

It seems everybody goes to Vic now and if Patton is anything to go by, they go back to Vic for basically nothing. You only pay if the deal goes the other way.

 

[RobbieK]

Sure, but those are positions that ultimately answer to him as the CEO. He won't be involved in the vast majority of the day to day operations of the football department, but when there are football decisions to be made that have an impact off the field as much as on (say, for instance, a major decision about bringing in someone like Franklin on an extended contract), he would be involved in the decision making.

 

[DobmusEdge]

Why is Papley, fresh from a leadership promotion, best ever season, contract extension and traipsing around Europe with six of best work buddies, doing this to the swans - the very organisation that transformed him from a life shovelling out shit to an elite footballer that gets to hang out with Buddy etc. Also the same organisation both his granddaddies player for.

Seriously? Why?
