List Mgmt. 2020 List Management

It is funny because Papley is far the better player for now, yet it's likely we wouldn't do this deal even for a straight swap.
Our need for a ruckman in the mould of De Koning is more important to us than to have a quality small forward which should be easier to find.

That's the way we should be looking at things from here on in; Don't look for better players.....just look for the right ones even at the draft.

Both Hately and Caldwell dropped again and both likely to be asking to be traded.
Given the depth of mids GWS already had and then knowing that Green was coming to them the year after, I didn't understand why they'd be stocking up on more inside midfielders in the 2018 draft when the likes of Butters, Clark, Duursma or Sturt who were much more suitable for them, were available.

GWS got it wrong. I trust we won't be making the same mistakes.

So true. I have been extremely confused by Gws drafting and list management decisions in recent years. They lose Wilson, Scully, Shiel who provided run and then keep drafting inside midfielders. they desperately need run and speed.

I had actually been worried Carlton were making the same mistake. The drafting of stocker and kemp was a bit at odds with what l thought we needed. Cripps, Setterfield , Kennedy and Dow could handle inside work. We needed skilful runners. Anyway l was a fan of kemp’s in u18 so wasn’t unhappy we picked him up.

Carlton fans - We dont want him! Can't kick, selfish, flops, plays as a key forward not a small, arrogant and will cost 13 first rounders.

Ya'll are nuts.

 

[Love the Drake]

Watching the Melbourne v GWS game tonight.

Williams - a definitive yes.

Could we look at Jayden Hunt as a Dan Butler type that fills a need and doesn’t cost much?

He’s quick. Neat skills. A goal kicker. Can’t cement a spot in the Melbourne 22.

 

[Stamos]

25 years is a bit excessive...

We started our rebuild in 2015.

I mean, the covid lockdown is distorting time, but not quite that much...

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Can I ask when does a rebuild end. I would say we been rebuilding for 25years. And I hope it will end soon.

Then you have zero clue unfortunately

Him wanting to come to us and us satisfying the swans for an in contract player are 2 completely separate issues.

If we were a top 4 side, sure pay overs. We are not though

Pretty sure we started a rebuild in 1986

The last time we won multiple premierships in a decade was the 80's so 30 is actually pretty spot on /s

I heard 1864

Sorry I haven’t been keeping up with this thread. Has Rory Laird been discussed as a trade target? Think he would brilliant in our back line, 28 next year, Teague connection, Crows are rebuilding & he might be looking for a change of scenery...

Yes I have mentioned him. 27 start of next season.
I’m assuming he’s contracted, so might cost too much and not gettable.

Can play mid and defence. Far better player than Viney.

Okay I have 30

40 anyone?

Brent Daniels kicked 3 goals tonight.

It takes Papley half a season to kick that many.

Those highlights are irrelevant. They were before Clarkson's staging comments.

The jury is out. Papley is a flopper.

The same Brent Daniels who prior to tonight had kicked 2 goals in 14 matches?

You really are just being silly now. It's a bit sad really.

I don't recall Clarkson calling out Daniels for staging for free kicks.

He's a good honest footballer.

Can't say the same for Tom Papley.

Papley for our 1st this year is a good get. Anything more and I'm against it

Have a look at how poorly those stagers at Richmond are going. Great point.

Not sure if people are saying no way, just don’t overpay. Especially given he has dropped off a touch. 13 first rounders is an excellent example of hyperbole though.

Not all. I’d most certainly part with a mid to late 3rd to get him over.

I'm too scared to tag him but fairly sure Eiffel 65 is a representative of the "no way" camp.

There is always a spectrum, most are in the don’t overpay basket. Better?

Bruest anyone

Ha of course, was just a gag given aforementioned poster has been extremely vociferous in his anti-Papley musings!

I know. Have read.

Yep. Would cost very little and will be good for a couple more years.
