Game Day 2022 Trade Period Match Thread

[Snuffaluphagus]

Thanks for making this an awesome trade period peeps. Will be locking this thread later tonight

 

[Docker82]

Five primary spots, only two decent picks. We should upgrade and extend Treacy, Schultz and Banfield.

Then we can take two national draft picks, any cat-B NGA players we like, and have a dip in the rookie draft.

Pick 67 will 100% end up being a selection good enough to use imo.

Upgrading three rookies means drafting three rookies in the Rookie Draft or SPP who are in theory inferior players.

Torn between three and four selections. If AMT chooses us and trains with us through the SPP you could probably just about guarantee it’s three picks.

Congrats DH’s

You've lost the plot Tony.

 

[Piggy Smalls]

Not too many left...

• Chapman
• Johnson
• Henry
• Taberner
• Walters
• Banfield
• Colyer
• Hamling
• Wilson

Only the top two really worry me.

Don’t forget the coach. He’s managed by Colin too

Jackson replaces Lobb
Corbett replaces Logue
OMeara replaces Mundy

Best player who puts their hand up in preseason replaces Acres
Erasmus/Johnson replaces Tucker

Love Mundy but we got 19 years out of him. OMeara plugs that hole.
The rest I think we are better now than before the trade period.

I'm not sure there will be a player worth two years at that point, I'd rather take that band as rookie players.

Sharp would have been the better pick up imo. ( O'meara )

Agree but we’ve lost depth, which could cause issues.

Pick 67 will barely be outside pick 50 on draft night. They’ll definitely be someone worth it at that point imo.

If we want a good state league ruck we pick them here rather than giving other clubs another 20-odd selections across the National and Rookie drafts to pick said players up instead.

 

[Joao]

67 will end up in the 50s after Brisbane and a few passes. 44 should come in to ~42

 

[Van_Dyke]

That Hawks f4 actually softens the blow quite a bit

Hawks could finish last next year with their outs

them and north have to be clear favourites for the spoon

I hope this is one of you

bit harsh on tabs that

Tabs > Lobb by a country mile.

I’d be watching Essendon with interest in regard to their father/son too.

Pick 24 (to be 26) is borderline at best. Reckon a downgrade/split of that pick may be on the cards.

West Coast without Kennedy might give em a run.

 

[purplerunsdeep2]

Need:

Small forward
Key forward
Key defender

Draper / Scaife could be NGA key forward options… Scaife seems to be most likely from reports?

Feel comfy with most of the rest of the list

Also want Allan

GC offers up 19 & Macpherson to north who reject it, “morons”
And then Bell gets a call if we’d like 19 if they can unload Brodie. Not sure he should be getting all the praise.
Same things happened this period, had nothing going on till late in the piece when hawks were keen to dump a player and salary… It’s fallen in his lap!

Lucky they are wicked at the draft….
Fingers crossed can dig up some late round gems

 

[Van_Dyke]

I’m predicting west coast rebound to 12-14th or so tbh (won’t complain if they don’t)

Based on what?

I don’t agree.
Also on an unrelated note happy to hear Jager is in a happy relationship

The trades allows Sturt, Treacy, Amiss to suddenly be worthy.
If Sturt and Treacy have a huge pre season, then the forward line has unpredictability. Jackson, lets face it, will play forward at some point.

 

[Van_Dyke]

Based on what?

think that if they don’t have the preseason from hell they’ll be better off, shit pre seasons have the power to derail a clubs season (eg Melbourne 2019).

 

[Johnny Dalmas]

Five vacant spots on the Senior List and none on the Category A rookie list.

Will we upgrade more than one rookie?
Will we sign a DFA?

They’re the questions from here from a List Management perspective until the draft.

I guess we keep a spot spare for Tippa?
If that doesn't work out perhaps a state leaguer might get lucky over the summer.

Hope we promote Shooter. He deserves a main list spot and a new deal.

 

[Purple Jesus]

I just don't see where the growth will come from with only Darling forward. Chesser might come on a bit but it'll be essentially first year for him. Redden retired as well didn't he? Nic Nat ... lol. I honestly don't see any talent across any line for them. Liam Ryan maybe?

 

[malpaso]

Agree but we’ve lost depth, which could cause issues.

Meek is the biggest loss as you say. However we can pick up a mature age ruckman from somewhere to provide backup. I find it hard to believe they haven't got their eye on someone already.

[MrDanggazz]

Maybe the club has faith Kuek will be our depth ruckman?
