List Mgmt. 2024 List Management discussion

[Nunez]

Er did the Lions just hint at Zorko retiring on Facebook??

No, it was a Breakfast Club reference.

The list spots would come in handy though otherwise we may not have the points.
Unless if we delist a few and draft them back in the rookie draft.

I would guess nobody else would be that hot on our mid year draftees? But guess is the operative word!

Day coming and Dev staying.... maybe....

 

[Hanley]

I like that outcome - Dev is solid midfield depth and a VFL standout, while Day can have an impact if needed and we don't lose anything rolling the dice.

My main association with Day for some reason is that when GC drafted him they made the slightly odd annoucement that with Day and Brennan they had two of the three highest vertical leaps from the history of the combine (I think NicNat was the other). Remember thinking at the time that jumping straight upwards from a standing start does not necessarily a good AFL player make.

Dev on 500k is a surprise.

I’m worried after this trade period that the depth we had will be stripped to bare bones. I guess that’s the point of salary cap etc. but it will be interesting what happens going forward. Feel like we are over invested in third talls and lack KPP players.

Lions have massive depth, let's not forget the 4 experienced guys coming back from a knee reco.

Cal sounds skeptical that the Robertson to Eagles trade even gets done on Trade Radio. Didn't seem confident.

On Jaxon Prior, Cal said Jaxon will have to choose b/w remaining at Lions where he has a contract in front of him or move to Essendon who want him as a DFA. I guess its a shame that it is an either or scenario whereby Essendon won't trade for him and we either lose him for nothing or stays on a new contract. I'd be happy keeping Jaxon as I personally rate him.

Be free Jaxon, spread your wings and win Essendon their first final in over 20 years!

These guys deserve a chance and I feel a bit bad if they stay and don’t get it now.

So, have 3 list spots. Need 3 of those for the draft + need as many list spots as we have draft picks + need to add Day to the list.

Wonder how we get that done?

 

[Harris Specter]

Eagles all over the shop with their list management decision making. Give away pick 3 and now won’t recruit a really solid inside mid for themselves

Would expect that we will add Day post draft. Good contender as a SSP addition.

 

[Dalions]

Would be silly for us to add him in the next few days as that suggests.

AFL Journo getting details incorrect and not understanding Draft/FA rules despite talking about them every morning for 3 weeks, shocker.

Just another way for us to Rort the system I guess?
In their eyes

By the sounds of it though, both Hawthorn and Eagles are refusing to back down on their demands for Barrass.

Hawks are only offering an F1 + second-round pick and want F3 back whereas the Eagles are demanding two firsts. I guess unlike Eagles who committed to Baker and then overpaid, Hawks at this stage aren't willing to do the same given they drafted that pick 14 to Carlton.

You're right though, paperwork and a general understanding of what WCE / Lions are willing to deal Robertson for is probably ready to go if that Barrass deal gets done, but I couldn't imagine after the shit storm Eagles faced with yesterday's deal they'll relent and make Hawks blink first, if they're even able.

I dont know if I want:

• The trade to fall over and Barrass and everyone get angry at Hawks and refuse to trade with them. Leading them to tank their culture and prospects for the future
• The trade to go through and piss off too many of their existing players so they crash back down next year and they give WC a high F1

Now I realise I just want Hawks to crash and burn

I am hoping West Coast stick firm and keep him to his contract.
It may not work well for them but I don’t really care about that. But I don’t want the Hawks to get better.

A host of clubs including Essendon, Brisbane, Fremantle, Melbourne and Western Bulldogs have arrived at Marvel Stadium for the final day of trading.
There are about five hours left and still plenty of key deals in play.

Hopefully not too much work to do for our team, if any.

 

[Dalions]

They will be there probably still hoping they can get a deal done for Dev and possibly even Prior.

 

[Perrip]

Player agent Colin Young breaks down what is next for McIntosh & Prior.

It's probably not the year for players, unfortunately, to be out of contract because everyone is talking about how high the draft is going to be this year with talent. So, it's unfortunate that Jaxon is out of contract at the moment.
But, again, we were waiting on a few players to maybe be traded from Brisbane outside the club that opened up a spot for Jaxon to stay at Brisbane.
So, now we're just on a watch to see what happens and pans out today if a spot does open up for Jaxon to stay. If not and it doesn't happen, he'll probably go into Free Agency.

I’m currently listening to trade radio. This is rock bottom.

 

[blueiris]

Has North traded Pick 2 to Richmond for 6 AND 11 YET asking for a friend

 

[Tom14]

 

[LoganMorrisFan]

Good opportunity for Day to play for a real football club

 

[blueiris]

Jon Ralph has had a bad 5 weeks he wrote the Lions were no chance of winning the Flag
he wrote that pick 27 would help with Lash and Marshall even though the Lions gave up 228 points in that trade
now he wrote it was pick 30 instead of pick 20 in the Richmond trade

Entertainment not facts are the name of the game for all news now
All about the clickbait now

Why don't we entertain the idea of trading Dev to West coast for their pick 26 and we also give them our pick 34. So the slide back 8 spots and get Dev.

We would then have picks 26 and 27 to start with. If Marshall isn't picked up before 26 we get a free hit on a player and then use remaining picks/points for Marshall?

Doesn't work like that, pick 26 would get eaten up by the Levi bid.

I'm sure we'd be fine with that but that is the Eagles second pick - they need to keep picks as early as possible.
