List Mgmt. 2024 GWS Giants List Management - Academy, Free Agent, Trade & Draft

[PMBangers]

Twomey did mention that both Whitlock lads were a possibility for us.

I'd be incredibly disappointed if we took Matt with any of our first round picks

I don't think we need a tall (other than matching in Smith later on)

Somebody suggested a 13,29 for 16,21 swap with Port. I could see that suiting as we get a better midfielder, they clearly need talls.

If crows want to move up, could we benefit.
21 37 for F1 F3
They can keep 21,
trade 2 for 4,37 F3 with North.


So 4,F1,F3,F3 for 2,21 is Adelaide's net deal.

The poster who put that up on the draft rumour thread normally has excellent intel. But as always time will tell.

If we lose Leek at the end of next year I reckon it couldn't hurt to pick one up.
There were reports the Saints tried to lure him with big money....I'd imagine it'll come again.

Here's an excellent resource for those who want to see a quick snippet of footage and hear a concise description of a bunch of options in this year's draft. Thanks noobermensch who's done a power of work all year on draft prospects' videos.

Not liking the Fox draft late mail for us! Hoping it’s a bit off the mark.

With two 2nds next year might be worth a slight move up.

I hate what they have selected for us!

Yeah with who's still on the table there I don't think there's much danger of us taking those two.
Interesting them having WCE taking Hotton. Feels risky for the Eagles.

Codesports/HeraldSun is saying it looks like we will hold all our first rounders rather than try and move up. But we have apparently been shopping pick 37 around in case a bid for Smith comes early.
They also have us link to a few different players:

The Giants are believed to like X-Factor forwards Taj Hotton and Joe Berry, but both could already be off the board given they also have interest from clubs higher in the order. Other options at pick 15 and 16 could include key defender Noah Mraz, midfielder-forwards Tom Gross and Ollie Hannaford and speedy forward Jasper Alger, and Harry Oliver.

Also:

GWS has nominated small forward Josaia Delana and 199cm swingman Cooper Bell as academy prospects, with both set to come under consideration as Category B rookies if they don’t attract a bid.

If they are the guys we like, I hope we trade down and get some great draft capital for next year.

No chance they take hotton. They don't want to do something that risks annoying Harley Reid.
Hotton could well be the best long term prospect, but that takes 5 years to be proven. They need to win games this year to get Harley to resign.
I think they will significantly overpay for pick 21.
I like 21,F2 for eagles 2025f1 as a possible trade.
