List Mgmt. 2023 Trade Thread - Part II

[tomjoad]

Spot on. That’s the biggest difference from the Richo/Watters years. Back then, none of the kids looked like or threatened to become A graders. They ranged from solid B graders to delist material. Remember when the likes of Ledger, Spencer White and Dunnel were our high hopes?

Sadly yes I do remember those dark days. The memories still burn...all those years having to lie to myself (though never believing) that Cam Shenton was going to be the next big thing.

 

[SaintsSeptember]

Prepared to be livid.

No one is giving a first rounder for someone who hasn't played for 2 years. We'd be more looking at a pick in the 50s.

If he wants to leave so badly let him go in the draft then.

 

[Joffaboy]

Pretty s**t draft. I reckon we'll go after existing players unless we are trying to move up into GCs picks with a pile of later ones.

Yup, it was light on for what we need, and now GC and Norf get the cream.

Your point above is a good one.

And get nothing? We got Butler for a 50's something pick.

Just listened to gettable. Not convinced Coff is gone. Lots of water to go under the bridge but we seem to be playing with fire. Don’t want to seem so desperate that we get low balled

 

[XhazzafootyX]

I just hope we don’t cut too deep. Fremantle did last year and it’s showing

 

[BrutThough]

Pretty s**t draft. I reckon we'll go after existing players unless we are trying to move up into GCs picks with a pile of later ones.

I reckon Dogs will get that pick.

Will get them in before the Croft bid to end a top end mid which they need.

Newcombe is actualised as a guy who's dominating the midfield in a fast rising side....most of it seems off the back of him. You obviously didn't watch his last couple of games. He had 40 possessions and goal against the Dogs who have one of the best midfields in footy and he dominated them like they were his bitch. Looked like Dangerfield at his prime.

If I was a betting man I'd get on him for a Brownlow next year because he's one of the most exciting young mids in footy. This kid is going to be a star.

Nas is actualised too because he's owning a spot and in our best handful of players every week. It's not hard to understand. Newcombe is already a dominant midfield in the AFL competition at 22. He's just jumped Noah Anderson (the other absolute shooting star young mid) into the top 20 player rankings.

Newcombe has had a couple of good games, but nowhere as good as some of Chito's early games this year.

He will certainly be a good player, but plenty of players have a rich vein of form. Lets see how he goes when he is sat on game after game. Really nobody is bothering to tag him at the moment. Against us we backed our mids in a shootout and we flogged them.

 

[tomjoad]

Gresham to Carlton unlikley


Coffield unlikely to be at the saints next year

Pity about Coffield if true...but it is what it is.

 

[pebblesofsand]

Given the number of players still uncontracted for 2024 ATM, we are definitely looking at trade value and acquiring picks.

Who stays and who goes will all depend on the offers they attract.

Could be any of Gresh, Coff or Clark - can't see more than one going unless we've got plans bigger than just someone bringing in someone like Flanders.

 

[stavro#4]

There is talk of 3-4 first round picks being up for grabs and we would like to grab a couple if possible.

What with ?

 

[stavro#4]

What with ?

Trading out some or all of our list from above

 

[Minga]

So what’s in it for the club to move him on?

Selling low won’t get us anywhere, there’s just no point unless Coffield requests a trade and I can’t see why he would, but maybe that’s the case.

 

[PoppedCorn]

Whats this we need quality and not depth stuff??

Been hearing this a lot


If the quality goes to shit via injury and u have no depth
?

All we will hear for another year is how we should've grabbed crouch and mathison lol

 

[Yawkey way]

Trading out some or all of our list from above

Not a first rounder among them unfortunately, maybe a deal or two to be worked but i hope we’re not burning bridges. It would be a big mistake to loose some of these guys for peanuts then end up rummaging in the bin and downgrading. I don’t want to loose any of Clark, coffield and Paton, they can all play and have big upside Imo.

 

[Ads734]

I also heard he kicked his dog once........

The dislike for Gresh really is reching fever pitch.

I love how in the presser Ross came out immediately in support of Gresh, without being asked. Says a lot to me.

Newcombe is a gun, just turned 22 and averaging 25+. He was good last year as well but is really firing now with some dominant games.

Good haul - so Gresh, Coff, Clark and King all gone next year?

 

[Yawkey way]

The banana's at the Saints are near 30.
At GC they are much younger

That’s true we need more young talent but I’d rather take our first to the draft toce has done very well.

 

[PoppedCorn]

There is talk of 3-4 first round picks being up for grabs and we would like to grab a couple if possible.

Any talk on which sides willing to trade the first rounder?

GC I'm guessing one of them

 

[Ads734]

I reckon Jai Newcombe looks like a future Brownlow medalist. Maybe next year even. He'd be better than even our older guys and he's 22. They have a huge spread of quality ball winners and outside runners. They have depth and a variety of types. Flanders would get a game at the Saints over them easily.

He may look like one but Owens is one. Grass isn’t always greener mate. Owens one of the best young players in the league with a massive cieling.

 

[Yawkey way]

He also asked the question of if we really want to get back into the draft... would we trade the skipper?

I would for Finn callaghan, then grab the other crouch or similar as a replacement.

 

[Coconut_twirl]

None of our players will get that. Unless you package Coffield and Clark together, but even then…

Gresham will net a second rounder.

Membrey a 4th rounder.

Only chance is Howard.

 

[Coconut_twirl]

This is why the talk of letting selling off good players for draft picks is concerning for me.

It’s concerning because this draft is not supposed to be very strong. It might be harder to find those gems from 30 onwards. The strategy could backfire.
