List Mgmt. 2021 Draft and Trade Hypotheticals

[Ticky009]

Hi everyone, for those interested some great links plus the Big Footy Draft, Trade & Free Agency twitter as per below:

 

[the hypnotoad]

I just feel for whichever poor kids get picked by Carlton.

Must be an awful, sinking feeling. And hard to portray that "I'm so happy" vibe when the TV cameras capture the moment your name is called.

money and blind hope ...
spose for any kid rated highly enough to be a draft prospect would feel some relief at just being picked ... and then it would sink in ...

 

[the hypnotoad]

Paddy not nominating, will pick him up on the Supplimental list. On Twitter

aaalll part of the plan ... except for the twitter bit

Could be worse, you could get traded there like Cerra

 

[caesar88]

I think it would be a very nice touch for Paddy to get the number 29 jumper. I recall in an interview Tom McCartin

was his closest mate at the club, and they would've been locker buddies as numbers 29 & 30. It would be a great gesture if Tom's best mate's number was passed on to Tom's brother.

 

[dosser]

Doesn't Paddy still have a significant number of weeks to serve on his ban?

Forever known as a 'Tanner Bruhn' after he was selected last year by GWS;

It was the family's reaction more than Tanner's that got me. He said afterwards it was kinda shock and being overwhelmed and that makes sense when you look back at it. But his mum, dad and brother's faces were kinda like, "ahhhh **** mate, guess it's better than nothing"

Odds to be traded back to Geelong $1.01

Nope, he served his 5 (?) weeks.

Played a fair season so he overcame whatever negative feelings he had.

Nah, retire the 29 imo

 

[Bloods86]

Also re: Anderson, I think the reason we have 70 still listed is that we can still use it. If we passed there, then technically we'd have pick 88 available (since 70 wasn't used). We're still listed as having 88 on the AFL site. Now if we passed there and one of the 6 teams with picks left still had one to use and bid, we'd still be able to wrangle a pick swap and trade back in, if a later club of those 6 didn't want to use their 5th rounder. Probably not going to be an issue at all if we still have access to 88 to match a bid, as long as we haven't already taken 4.

 

[caesar88]

I would support this notion tbh.

I am still absolutely filthy about it.

 

[sataris]

Why does this have you in stitches particularly?

I mean it's a bit of a simplification, but have you not noticed that amount of 27yo+ players that head to Geelong? Do you reckon that might have something to do with wife and kids? Lifestyle in retirement etc?

It stands to reason that if Jordan Dawson had found himself a local Sydney girl who desired to stay in Sydney then there is a far greater chance that Jordan Dawson would still be a Sydney player.

Of all of the ridiculous sh*t that gets raised on this board, that is hardly the most so.

The scene in particular goes something like this.

"He has the talent, but he has an ugly girlfriend"

"Why does that matter?"

"It shows he lacks confidence"

 

[ShireSwan]

Re: Greenwood.

B-grader switches from perennial duds to wooden spooners.

*yawn*

I'd have Greenwood in our club for sure. Tireless worker. Though your characterisation of the clubs is accurate.

 

[ShireSwan]

Bloody hell. I'd wager Geelong will take him just before our second pick, but if not...

Why the ruck merry-go-round put this draft prospect in a spin

Toby Conway is shaping up as one of the draft's best pure ruck prospects

How many ruckman do you want on our list???

Hickey
Ladhams
Sinclair
Naismith
MacAndrew

And King

Back in the Paul Roos day we seemed to be trying to build a team with nothing but halfbacks. Under Longmire we can be the first team in history to be made up entirely of ruckmen.

We won't be drafting him.

If we hadn't brought in Ladhams there was maybe a small possibility, I think we attack the midfield, HBF and KPD.

The LAST of our needs. Don’t need a ruck

Yeah we needed one before we drafted McAndrew and traded for Ladhams. Still though, Sinclair's got like no time left, Hickey's on the wrong side of 30, and Naismith won't get another contract. Billy King means we don't have to take one this year but generally getting another ruck wouldn't be as ridiculous as it looks

We still have Amartey.

Even not counting Sinclair and Naismith that's still 4 ruckmen before Amartey or McLean who can pitch hit.

Stupid to waste a top pick on a ruck this year

I don't think anyone expects Conway to go in the first round

The second round is too high with our needs
