List Mgmt. 2024 List Management discussion

[notliondown]

This team of ours already has enough show ponies in it. There are enough players with talent oozing out of every orifice yet choosing to show it sporadically at best - not every team member has to be the greatest player in the competition.

Berry (and too few others) commits 100% every time he takes the field. Yes he definitely has some poor disposal at times - usually after running 150m for the ball or making a tackle. Yes he may have stagnated, and yes maybe his body does limit him.

But lack of effort or team work or ethics or leading by example are things that cannot be argued. He's the sort of player that makes others look good.

He's the work horse type player - and frankly at this point in time where too few others do far too little far too often the idea we would trade him blows my mind.

If we're too reliant on Neale in the middle and need another ball winner, is it worth looking at a mature age midfielder like Boyd Woodcock in the mid season draft?

We need a tall big-body mids. 190+. Our midfield is too one dimensional in terms of size. There is not enough speed either, players that can burst out of center whom we can send as a change up to center bounce attendances.

We have enough mid-tier ones already - WAshrcoft (182) and Fletcher (183) added recently along with Levi (179) and Marshall (185) arriving soon.

We've certainly had chances to draft them. Matthew Johnson was there for the taking.

I think George Stevens last year would've been nice too. Pick 58.

Too slow, another lions and he can’t get a game

Went to the marathon for mum, heaps of other past and present players there to support him, seems to be a leader around the club and if he was traded or not offered a decent contract would do untold damage to the club reckon. You don’t let good people go

You got me curious so did a bit of search in pre-draft threads and in Geelong board now.

It appears he ran 6:37 in the 2km time trial in the combine while carrying a 100kg frame + coming off a ACL in 2022. Caleb Windsor who's playing in wing for Demons now ran 6:28.

I think George ticks an important box for us which is finding footy inside the contest and releasing our runners. We don't have any mids at the moment doing this work apart from Neale. Our next best clearance player is our ruckman Oscar. So yeah, having George would've been a good addition to our midfield stocks.

Geelong list is pretty mature and they bat deep in midfield too - Blicavs, Atkins, Duncan, Bruhn, Parfitt, Holmes, Jhye Clark along with Danger and CGuthrie to come back from injury. Stevens won't be needed short term.

I’d like be to know what his 20 metre sprint was, didn’t question his endurance

Couldn't find it so far. Don't need him for burst speed like Petracca, just need to win first possession at stoppage.

Geelong supporters are bullish since all his results were achieved at his peak weight of 100kg, if he manages to drop even 10 and you'll certainly see improvement.

 

[irel]

I think Jakess DE-registered from BF in protest because we did not draft Johnson when we had the opportunity. In hindsight he'd be ideal now for our midfield. The other I believe we should have drafting when we had the chance was Owens.

 

[T Rick]

Do we actually have any picks in this year's mid-season draft?

 

[buttermuffs]

Do we actually have any picks in this year's mid-season draft?

Will have one from Coleman and possibly another with Doedee (he hasn’t been ruled out for the season yet but most likely will be).

 

[rye]

thought LDU looked absolutely checked out today

one to keep an eye on as a free agent in 2025 as we probably start to look at life after neale

 

[Section 5]

Do we actually have any picks in this year's mid-season draft?

Will have one from Coleman and possibly another with Doedee (he hasn’t been ruled out for the season yet but most likely will be).

Quite a few midseason draft prospects in this game today at 12.40 pm ACDT which i think is 12.10pm Brisbane time.
No VFL Smithy's games this round so recruiters can have a look while all teams in Adelaide.

[McIvor]

Good to see Zane Littlejohn recognised by being named coach of the VFL. I reckon Zane will be an AFL coach one day a lot like Fagan and could easily see him having a prominent development/assistant role at the Devils in the coming years.

if the VFL looks like a ruck from a bygone era. Is he the ex-Suns that was banned for something, which may not even be him?

Nah he got done for recreational drugs

Yes, that's him. Got done for cocaine.

 

[Section 5]

Yes, that's him. Got done for cocaine.

He has actually taken off a lot of wait since i last saw him play.

 

[Section 5]

I thought it was a pretty good game.
At least one more to come according to the commentary team.
So, no reason why we can't fide someone better that Lane from a few years ago.

 

[Section 5]

 

[The Flying Belgian]

Still think Boyd Woodcock is good enough for AFL. Must be some extenuating circumstances why it hasn't happened again.

We should bite the bullet and look to move Cam Rayner on at the end of the year. See if anyone is interested.

Genuinely don’t understand this logic. He would be worth a second rounder, prob 25-30 range. Even if he was worth a late first pick, I’d take cam at the level he is at now for the rest of his career over a pick, which could turn out to be Ely Smith.

He is best 22 and a solid contributor. Even if you don’t think he has any upside, which I’d disagree with.
