List Mgmt. 2020 Trade Targets

[OneGreatClub]

We don't have to move them and can use them as depth.

Yes maybe he is just surmising

 

[robbo1981]

Bonner to Essendon just seems like a perfect fit after the Irish man left and Saad wants out.
Bonner for Fanta pants straight swap is fair.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Someone needs to explain to me why Sydney is in salary cap trouble partly because of Buddy but Geelong is able to throw multi million dollar contracts at marquee players with Dangerfield on similar coin.

 

[Tibbs]

CD seemed pretty clear on his AA interview again today that they want to keep all players, and none had requested to move. So unless one is included in a deal .. but I don't think that involves Sydney, and he said that they are still waiting on Essendon who have bigger fish to fry first.

So not too sure on the veracity of this Bonner/Lienert talk tbh.

 

[Smithy7]

They wouldn’t be requesting trades without someone showing interest in them.

Bonner said he did not want to be traded.

I thought I had read that a club had made enquiries about Lienert. Sydney I think.

 

[JimmyBC]

Lienert or Bonner adios SANFL player(s)

 

[VineValerian]

Or.. that’s the spin

Maybe.

 

[Vagabond0]

One of our weaknesses this year was holding off key forwards when we were losing the mid. Not sure if this trade covers that.

If AA starts does he take no.1 key forward when size is an issue and Mckenzie gets the gig when speed is more of a concern?

If so leaves Clurey with the 3rd option to worry about but not convinced Tom can do enough coming off his man to really hurt the opposition.

So can see AA being asked to play the swing role the Hoff played for us, but that's asking a lot of smarts from a late comer to the game and suspect Mckenzie with his kicking skills may offer more in this role.

Suspect TJ will continue to get the floating role as he plays it well.

Leaves DBJ and Hartlett to pick up the smalls. Dan and Burton as options that also play that quarter back role kick out of defence.

With Chad and Monty coaching you would expect to see more intercepting marks next year.

Lienert and Bonner will be starting a fair way back unless they can reinvent themselves.

Safe to say it looks like the trade would be a fair upgrade given the added flexibility in options and especially as Watts wasn't able to make a come back in his defensive role.

 

[Schulzenfest]

The Bonner for Fantasia trade I've been calling for for months starting to grow legs. Carn Ports. 28 or future second and Bonner for Aliir and Fantasia would be a handy trade period.

I read on wikipedia that Aliir's cousin plays in the NBA, so maybe we can rookie list him one day.

TIL Thon Maker is Aliir Aliir

's cousin. Now I want him even more.

 

[Sewer de Lance]

I wouldn’t be surprised if other clubs have made enquires about Lienert as he has shown himself to be more then serviceable at AFL level. If traded, hope it’s the Swans & not the Bombers for humanitarian reasons.

 

[Tibbs]

I thought I had read that a club had made enquiries about Lienert. Sydney I think.

C'est possible!

Could be something that comes to life after a few enquires, and the fact that AA coming in lessens game opportunities. WE shall find out anon!

 

[TheFVK]

CD seemed pretty clear on his AA interview again today that they want to keep all players, and none had requested to move.

Just the standard straight bat. If he does see value in moving someone we want to maximise their value as a required player.

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

whether he’s over rated or not is irrelevant. He was pick 14 two years ago and certainly hasn’t lost any value in that time

yeah you saying he “certainly” hasn’t lost any value doesn’t mean a whole lot though tbh

I doubt we play AA, Clurey and McKenzie in the same side. Structurally our defense was sound this year, but personnel wise there were times when our KPDs got mauled. AA isn't the perfect solution but he's a severe upgrade on Clurey.

If you did play all 3 and used AA as a Hoff swing type player, whose spot in our current best 22 would he take? He won't be taking Ladhams role as the #2 ruck, & im not convinced you can take out Amon or Duursma who are the primary wingers.

 

[King_Tredrea]

yeah you saying he “certainly” hasn’t lost any value doesn’t mean a whole lot though tbh

sure, why not. And you saying he’s “over rated” means just as much.

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

sure, why not. And you saying he’s “over rated” means just as much.

oh absolutely!

 

[Tibbs]

sure, why not. And you saying he’s “over rated” means just as much.

But he is being overrated here. He is vanilla. Yet some are saying 'he is gonna be gun', 'love to have him' .. blah, blah. Have seen quite a bit of him ... No thanks!

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

 

[It Just Is]

The prophesied 5-way. The Bigfooty trade board will never be the same again.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

As about likely as catching bigfoot.

I can answer some of this.

Ideally Aliir gets put on the oppositions second key forward as Aliir can be found out a bit against the stronger guys. His real strength is also reading the play, zoning off his man and taking an intercept mark before immediately running with the ball and kicking it into the midfield. He can't zone as well on the number 1 key forward and it hurts his game.

I also strongly recommend not moving Aliir around. He is a confidence player and he gains confidence by being in the position best suited to him. If he drops his head thanks to being played somewhere he isn't as suited, and as a result not playing as well, then he doesn't look that good.

Keep Aliir in his ideal position and don't move him randomly around the field and you will be very pleased with what he produces, both with intercept marks and attacking plays out of defence.

I see on fox they will have the end off trade day tomorrow live I've just flicked the sports package anyone know if it will be streamed at all?

 

[Chachi]

CD on AFL Trade Radio next up.

 

[Chrizzt]

Yep, just like when SA boys Polec and Wingard got traded to the crows
