List Mgmt. 2019 Trade Thread - Part II

[plugger66]

You shouldn’t really get so wound up about someone passing on something they’ve heard.

Things change. Who cares. Move on.

The forum is boring as bat droppings without a handful of people throwing in things they’ve heard from others closer to the club. Which includes you BTW.

I’ve been told stuff by a few mates who have really strong sources inside the club and inside HQ. Most of it didn’t come off. Did I crack the s**ts or accuse him of making it up?

Move on Pluggs. Life is too short.

Now should we go after Ben King instead of a mid?

I’m actually making it exciting by questioning him or is it you are worried they will leave if one or two question them even if 50 get excited by them. Are they really that soft. Not once have I told them not to post and many more tell them to post more so it’s actually adding conversation.

Mg would know more about king or a mid. Give him a pm. If it was up to me I’d get king and try to delist all mids. Probably get Goldstein as well and maybe a couple of tall backs. We need more height.

id be sad about losing someone like Steven but at 30 if we can replace him with someone like brad hill and jag someone like comstable who is that perfect inside midfielder we need then I’m all for it because realistically Steven isn’t gonna be in our next real flag push as sad as it is considering his age and recent health so I think mutually trading him is beneficial
Maybe even trading someone like carlisle who is older will one of our better players would be in the same boat and if we could get a High pick I’d highly consider it considering how well battle developed and the fact we still have clav in the wings and we could also maybe get Tomlinson if carlisle goes to fill out

Do we really want Hugh back. Also clav is so far off it. Very slow player

I need someone to explain some of these people saying return home. It automatically rings alarm bells and says to me do these guys know anything or are just making it up for likes

 

[gringo2011]

Yeah but healey also reckoned Jack hadn't played for two years....

He's old and taken a few knocks to the he'd maybe?

If it was just one post questioning them that would be fine, but everyone chips in on both sides and you respond to every post that questions you questioning them and we end up with pages of it.

What people hear can turn out to be wrong, it can be out of date, but I'd wager most of the board would like to hear it anyway

Report: Star Docker officially set to request trade

He wants to play for a Victorian team.

Yeah and it's recorded live I guess - what's Marshall's excuse - young and taken a few knocks to the head?

 

[gringo2011]

I’d say Steven 99% gone guys. Hindsight is always great but if we had our time again we trade him last year.
This is just my opinion but I think we will say to Jack that we understand that he’s gone through a tough time and we want to get him to Geelong but they also have to step up and ensure we end up happy with the outcome.
After the Hannebery backlash we can’t seem to stuff up another trade, especially for a well liked guy like Stuv.
Realistically I think if it’s a straight trade and Kelly/Hill not involved I think we end up with one of their young mids, there’s one in particular I know we are keeping a VERY close eye on.
We have also entered into negotiations with a KPP free agent. With money to burn I think he would be a solid get.

Any hints on the FA?

If we’re supposed to be happy with pick 36 or the equivalent for Stuv we should be able to trade Carlisle for pick 45 and call it a win.

(Sorry know you didn’t suggest that, being tongue in cheek)

 

[TheSaintsWhisperer]

Saints are by far and ahead the leaders for brad hill because the club have currently tabled the highest offer of any club so far and are willing to also bring in his brother (which is key as both brothers want to play together)

 

[gringo2011]

If we had a choice of geelongs young mids who would we take and why?, or would you prefer a first round pick?.

They probably have about 6 I'd be happy to have a look at. Parfitt, Cockatoo, Constable, Cunico, Fogarty even Jordan Clark and at a pinch maybe Menagola who would be ready to make us a stronger midfield straight away. They have so many there, I hate them, they have a team coming up under their old guys still. They never drop.

Thanks Whisp, you just went back a week and read this thread.

Sweet.

 

[majortinkle]

Thank you. I think everyone has noted that now.

I reckon we should have an unofficial rules thread as a sticky - this would be rule 1

Rule 2 would be: never reference the relative skills of Longer and Hickey in the same post

 

[sunny3193]

But he will be able to give it to Darkknight Langlands so he can run out of sight with it. Over and over and over. Again. Constable in my mind is a pure footballer. He knows how to read the tips of the waves and watch the windspray to find the fish. This 190cm specimen will find the pill, and will farm it out by hand in an almost Bontempellian way. Then he will trundle off awkwardly and somehow manage to get to eaxctly the right spot for a clinch. And he will halve or win that one too.

He is exactly what we are praying Dunstan will become. His most common 'plays like' comparison is one Patrick Cripps.

Well, now you’ve sold me!
LOL.
I hope you’re right.
If we do get Constable, I absolutely hope things play out as you have so deftly described.

If we could pinch Constable for Stuv and bring in Hill, I'd be most happy.

Then we can package up Dunstan and Acres for King.


The 2nd one was sarcasm.btw.

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

Didn't Sam Day recently re-sign? There really isn't much in the old KPP Free agent department.

Why do you only pop up on trade threads about this time?

 

[VDS66]

Let him in, that would be some circle jerk.

If we wanted jerkers, you'd be number one ticket holder...
