List Mgmt. 2022 List Management and trading thread

[Scorpus]

I saw this format on the West Coast board and thought it might help understand our current list position

 

[DJ75]

Stacked already!

Couldn't possibly fit anyone else in our team. It's just too strong.

 

[Golumless]

I dont get it. You have sloane and seeds to chuck on the long term injury list and just try a few blokes out.

Instead the club will stand strong and wait for the return of raging rory sloane. This club is so far off anything.

Look at the contract situation we have this year. You'll get it then.

It's a right mess where we're likely already forced to move players to the rookie list to free up main list spots, and we made it pretty clear that we weren't going to take a lad without already seeing him as a long term proposition last year.

 

[crows dude]

Fogarty still is best 22 worthy, Just not the Tex replacement we all hoped for

Strachan is dominating SANFL level and deserves to replace O'Brien IMMEDIATELY

Rob will also dominate the SANFL.

The club needs to start moving contracted players out as plenty of other clubs do. I don't wanna hear the player needs to agree to it as other cubs don't have a problem telling the player they will never play firsts again in order to get them out. Pay some of their contract if we have to. Milera is a prime example of a contract we need gone.

Let's hope so, and that it reminds him how to football

I don't know if ROB would dominate anything.

Good luck finding any club who is even remotely interested in Milera at this point with that contract. That's the risk of giving long contracts to promising kids, sometimes things go wrong.

The thing with getting rid of contracted players is you need to be able to find a buyer. Telling a, let say, Matt Crouch that he's not getting any more games in the first and should look at leaving would just leave us with an alienated lab whilst we run out the clock on his contract as the lack of interest has already been shown.

I think North may look at Milera if he gets himself really fit and we pay some of his contract. Their list is really bad. Giving Crouch two years was a strange one. Who had all the leverage? The crows. One year deal or seeya, he had no other takers. Tbh I don't think I would have offered him one year as he's not what we need.

Yeah, but I'd hope they'll try to improve their list.


If they want Milera, maybe they'll take Davis as well.

Davis is a list clogger. Back to the NEAFL next year.

I wonder if the lack of interest for Crouch was due to his injury and the uncertainty of him playing again. Maybe (hopefully) now he's shown he can play weekly he will have some suitors?

I realise it won't be anything of note but will at least get him off our list and the temptation to play him will be gone.

Or is it just wishful thinking on my part?

 

[GreyCrow]

And people had the nerve to have a go when I question contract extensions.

Justin Reid comes under the least fire on this board.

 

[Bearded Clam]

Nicks bascially said where not taking anyone in the MSD.

Nicks can go then.

If he said that he’s clearly not up to it.

 

[MRB37]

Nicks can go then.

If he said that he’s clearly not up to it.

It wouldn't be his decision. That would be one made by the list management committee of which he is only a part of.

 

[Frothiewalker]

Yeah on afl 360 a few weeks back he said not happening.

 

[jackster83]

Nicks can go then.

If he said that he’s clearly not up to it.

We've got three glaring needs - ruck, KPD, inside midfield.

Surely there's someone in the state leagues or playing U18's as an over-ager we could look at.

 

[BunjiMac]

This committee is one of the worst in the AFL.

Who's on it?

 

[Dudersaurus]

Davis is a list clogger. Back to the NEAFL next year.

Unlike Milera?

 

[Mutineer]

Rob will also dominate the SANFL.

Correct, the SANFL ruck depth is dire currently.

Brisbane delistee Connor Ballenden about the only one that might get looked at in the MSD IMO.

It will be interesting to see how Strachan or possibly ROB go against him when we play WWT.

 

[Mutineer]

He called him the next Dangerfield prior to the draft, strong leadership qualities also.

Old Matty does tend to go over the top with some of his statements since he's become the Media's draft go to guy.

 

[Crow till I die]

just posing the question. Should we have thrown the kitchen sink at GWS last year for pick 2 (that they got from Collingwood) to have been able to select Fin Callaghan and as such we forgo having Rachele

Purely from a list perspective, would it have been a play we should have gone all in for?

 

[Mutineer]

I don't know if ROB would dominate anything.

You obviously haven't watched a lot of the season 2022 SANFL ruck men running around.....most should be playing suburban level footy so dire are the SANFL ruck stocks currently.

Brisbane delistee Connor Ballenden the only one apart from Port's Sam Hayes that would be competitive with ROB or Strachan. Port's Dante Visentini possibly in a year or two when he gets some more size would also be competitive.

Would be Roo, Reid, Hamish, Silvers and Nicks at the very least.

If we wanted a midfielder specifically Josh Ward was available, went the pick after Rachele or tallish midfielder/forward WA's Neil Erasmus who was also available.

If we were to trade up my preference would have been to target tall big bodied midfielder Mitch Knevitt or tall midfielder/defender Josh Goater who despite his deficiencies has a ton of X factor especially explosive speed off the mark.
It would have cost far less than the collateral needed to get Callaghan but would have seen us miss out on Soligo and possibly Taylor as well.

The long game with Rachele will no doubt be as a midfielder/forward anyhow.

My money is on Callaghan seeking a trade to a Melbourne based club sooner than later by the way
