List Mgmt. 2022 List Management: Draft, Trade and FA

[Madas]

All the WC f***heads watching suddenly crack a boner and feel all warm and fuzzy inside

And then they look at their list and go limp

 

[Taylor]

They moved to big bash cricket on Sunday

 

[tonygeeks]

Remember when Daniels had grey hair a few months ago

That interview has just as much truth as his new hair colour

F***ing rinser

 

[Madas]

They moved to big bash cricket on Sunday

Can’t help but be impressed really .
It’s all about how you play the game and they are good at the game and have runs on the board

When/if we actually become relevant and maintain some consistency maybe we start calling the shots

But right now the money and power behind that club is beyond our imagination and something to dream of

Personally I prefer our underdog status
Closer to the ground when we fall

1. Eagles wanting to talk to Jackson to lure him offer will end in the same way we wanted to talk to Kelly to get him over.
2. Eagles don't have the draft capital to get Jackson and will be beyond negligence if they trade him in because their list has more holes than a 4 year old pair of underwear.
3. North closer to a flag than West Coast.

Ryan Daniels is one of the good ones. Is always fair to Freo and is very strong on having 2 separate sources reporting the same before going with something.
Not saying the report is true, maybe it’s not his “scoop” and is just the normal hyperbole rubbish.

West Coast are in the "must be seen to be doing something" phase

If it was a 'scoop' - I'm sure Daniels would have lead on it as part of his bulletin. It's come from a fluff piece for the Eagles and one of the channel 7 team included a vague statement about Jackson to enhance the clip. I think we're making a mountain out of a molehill.

We'll need to provide a good offer to incentive Jackson over - however $1 million a year seems over the top. I would hope we're more conservative towards our list management post Hogan.

Massive call he played in a grand final last year...

Literally means nothing. Xavier Richards says hi

 

[Swiggy]

Literally means nothing. Xavier Richards says hi

He played well in the the finals against the bombers & Port... gave Aliir a bath against port. should have kicked a bag

 

[Purple Jesus]

Bingo.

Came within a hair of the spoon. Deflect deflect

Won 2 games for the year, like our spoon year (which was much better than theirs % wise, 72 vs 59.8 - and side note, our percentage that year was higher than theirs that year). We got absolutely raked over the coals in the media for that - let's have a guess as to why that was with them finishing only 2 spots above us.

While we talk about which KPF to bring in, I feel it’s worth nothing the long history of KPFs close to being written off before figuring it out. I’d have to look into it more it feels like there is a definitive age bracket where you can get a KPF that has been on a list for a while for cheap with massive potential to explode. I reckon the age cut-off is 24 and it helps a lot if they were a 1st round pick.

Good examples include Fogarty, Marshall and Peter Wright who I think had all been on a list for 4-5 years before figuring it out. Is there any in this age bracket around the place?

Good strategy but also a bit of russian roulette. Offer a 23 year old key forward a contract and he turns out to be the next Kersten or McCarthy.

 

[gungho]

Who is the 2023 version of Chol? A 24 year old key forward/ruck who can't get a game at their old club but on the brink of a break out year.

West Coast are in the "must be seen to be doing something" phase

Laughed very hard when I read a piece in the last couple of days where Nesbit said if it wasn't for the interrupted pre season and COVID early on they would have made the 8 this year. Talk about over rating your list. Apart from Barass name one other Eagles that showed any sign of improvement this year.

I think it's less of a case of "over rating" more "blatant bullshit to appeal to the casual fan"

They know they are cooked for the forseeable future

 

[theGav56]

Who knows who’s coming. But I reckon can take it to the bank lobb won’t be at freo

I've seen too many trade periods so it'll have to be your money.

This is correct. My brother dealt with someone high up for West Coast at the start of the year and this person said "We are in for a long year this year" and it was well before injuries and covid.

So year they're ****ed. I wonder how long it will take for their fans to realise.

 

[apuchar]

Some more detail

• Peter Wright, 24 last year when he started to figure it out
• Darcy Fogarty, 22 this year
• Todd Marshall, 23 this year

Jake Riccardi will be 23 for the start of next year and while he doesnt meet the "high draft pick criteria", he gives the best chance of getting a Peter Wright style bargain

Don't see him as being any better than Sturt.

Or Hogan, Tarrant, and that nob we brought from hawthorn.
Modra and Farmer are the only good forwards we have jagged..

 

[theGav56]

Even that's too much. I call bullshit.

Should have quizzed Nissbet about his salary and whether he is delivering on it given the state of the club. May have enquired about the coach, s&c and pieman too.

 

[blue shark]

Don't see him as being any better than Sturt.

Sturt was a first round pick, and was rated in the 18-30 mark if I remember
right?
He has the ability, it would be disappointing to see him gone. Even one game this
year you’d think would’ve been beneficial.
Let’s hope next preseason we see more focus, chances given to our forward line
woes.

 

[Tbonefreo]

Wtf - just read that Carlton have cap space.

We need to recruit their accountant.

Unbelievable.

Not sure they do.

Proud before a fall and all that,

 

[Taylor]

Unbelievable.

We need their billionaire family on the board that also pays over a dozen of their playing list to supplement their salary.

If someone like Andrew Forrest walked onto the board and started paying half our list to be environmental spokespeople for FMG the AFL would shut it down in a day.
