Strategy 2021 Draft and Hypothetical pick trade proposals

[Strapping Young Lad]

Lol seriously can we just have a ban on posting things ol clickbait Kornes says…

none of it is interesting and it’s all designed to just stir people up.

Hodgey wants a new rule! Hodgey gets a new rule.

No more clickbait shit from Cornes in here.


Also:

Can we also threadban Rendell quotes. The bloke is senile.

Done

Chad is staying = end of story

[Iceman!]

You mean you don't like Nick Dal Santo's "who would be your dream recruit from any player in history" segment?

Or the two hours they spent this morning debating the worth of the number 1 pick that isn't going to be traded

Especially when he literally said 'i know nothing about Horne-Francis' mm yep seems good, love that. PROFFESIONALISM.

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

can we move on from Chad now?

 

[Gene Simmons]

Amazing how a fractured playing group doesnt want to leave

But.... we lost Timmy O'Brien becuase of the 'messy' handover..

 

[CobberRodgers]

it's a tight spot

i don't think we should trade more than two of these players

i also don't think we should trade zero of these players (unless they all really want to stay)

i don't think we should trade Chad

i don't think we should push anybody out the door

i don't think we should take unders on anyone

i don't think we should go to the draft with just our current hand

so there's a lot of moving parts and pros/cons that will have to be weighed up, which is a lot for a pretty much entirely new-look coaching staff, and i bet rigorous discussions are happening now and will continue to right up until Wed arvo

If anyone is wondering what I’m thinking, this is it

Not in the slightest bit shocked, him leaving would have been a surprise. Him leaving to the Giants was almost no chance of happening.

Not sure if this hypothetical has been brought up yet, apologies if so, but what would your opinion be on Gunston to Essendon for their pick 11?

He's missed the last 12 months with a mystery back injury. Would be a good fit for them and has family ties at the club.

Not saying I'd necessarily do it, but it's an interesting one. What do you think?

 

[TylerDurden]

Chad today.

I'd do it in a second, which means Essendon wouldn't even consider it.

Their list is still a fair bit off it imo despite the top 8 finish and they shouldn't be taking on players like Gunston just yet.

 

[TylerDurden]

Can we call him Wolfie now?

 

[RoughysMullet]

Sucks. We seriously need the picks

 

[theiaofseed]

If GWS were interested in Wingard, they will come back knocking.

 

[Blackhawk42]

If GWS were interested in Wingard, they will come back knocking.

Nothing to do with them or us. It's all down to Chad and it appears as though he has unequivocally said no.

Yes yes we can

No chance the do it

 

[nickrebellious]

Damn... Finn Callaghan could be the next Jono O'Rourke

 

[Lickmesocks]

Gunston really the only one there's been whispers about being not 100% happy and yet it seems like he would be more than fine staying on if a suitor doesn't come along

On 650k I reckon Jack would be relatively happy just quietly.

Yes any any salesmen knows a no just means a maybe. They have 3 days to pitch an offer to Chad, guarantee they ask again.

 

[burton5]

If we go into next year with Wingard, O'Meara, Mitchell and Gunston all still on the list we're looking at being a perennial middle of the round team.

 

[Hawks2011]

Sucks. We seriously need the picks

Yep we need to start being aggressive and keeping all of our “A-Graders” who are 28+ is going to keep us in no mans land from 8th-13th.

Pick 2 + 13 + 21 this year and then another bottom 3 pick next year would’ve set us up perfectly.

It’s a shame.

 

[butlers hawks]

Sucks. We seriously need the picks

If they need someone to take salary there might still be something in the works…a plan B maybe

 

[hawkmang]

Sucks. We seriously need the picks

Gutting heart and soul players is not worth it. Consider the collateral that does to guys like Impey and Brockman who look up to him at the club.

Wingard the Wolf of Waverley.
