List Mgmt. 2024 List Management Part 2 📃

sides may back themselves to do better managing jack's injuries than us. supporters opinions on russell would dictate whether they feel the same.

it happens. jarrad waite managed to spend a lot more time on the ground in his first contract with north than with us. kaput after that though.

Best of luck to his new club if Martin leaves.

 

[Accidental genius]

If there are indeed multiple clubs interested, then that works massively in our favour. A bidding war drives his contract offers up, and a higher contract offer makes it feasible for us to set a higher price at the trade table.

Depending on what else we have going on, if we could get a second rounder for Martin (this year or next, say in the 27-36 range) then I'd take it and run.

Martin out (hypothetically) a future second rounder from Freo.
Aleer in for that future second as well as our own future second (GWS stockpile some solid picks for future academy bids in case the discount goes out the window).
Take our first to the draft for Berry or Lindsay.
Take the Campos wherever the fall.
Retain our 2025 first rounder to address further needs next year.

Who are you talking about Martin?

i'd keep Martin personally.

Minimum coin.

Back our new person to get him right...was no fan of AR.

Mid with burst and pace and good kicking skills …

I’m sure most would have seen daicos winning goal against lions last week…

Having the burst to get a few steps ahead of Neale and the speed and the confidence to run and bounce whilst running around a player into f50 and kick truly

Cody Walker when he comes in. Before that unless we get gifted priority picks somehow we aren't finding one for cheap

Maybe one of the reasons why we're rumoured to be chasing a running half back like Jakob Ryan is to develop Billy as a mid rather than half back.

In his draft year, he blossomed when he was moved to the midfield by the Rays, despite representing Country Vic as a defender.

I just watched one of his highlights…

looks good and He doesn’t mind selling candy

cant wait to see him get a run in our senior side

sounds very promising

 

[Foucault1989]

If anyone has Tomilson on their wish list, cross him off.

 

[Foucault1989]

Ironically his best game of the season was against Port where he kicked 4 goals playing forward and ruck before he got injured. Brings pressure and intensity. Is best 22 every day of the week for me.

Couldn't agree more. Love him. Picked every week.

 

[Blueyourmyboy!!]

Durdin is the one we need to make a player out of and he teased us again last week. He is the type we need at HF.

Doc and a long shot in Wilson through the wings and midfield would improve our speed through there massively. Possibly even at HF.

I’ve said it before but for me it doesn’t matter how good a forward or midfielder is, with where our list is atm if they aren’t a great runner I wouldn’t bother.

Durdin shoulders are cooked. Poor kid can't get a run at it.

hasn’t got a contract, and it’s been one of his better seasons. Surely he’s worth a look as o KPD, IF he isn’t in a hurry to re-sign with Melb.

 

[bigblueboy]

Hmmmm, Tom McDonald hasn’t got a contract, and it’s been one of his better seasons. Surely he’s worth a look as o KPD, IF he isn’t in a hurry to re-sign with Melb.

Would be better option than Young. But only just.

I think Draper is decent but not worth moving up for.

UFA

If Draper is there and we don’t pick him…. That would be Albert Proud levels of draft incompetence.

He’d be perfect to partner Weits, he is UFA, wont cost much $$$$ and he’s a real solid key forward back up option.

Him and Haynes together would be really solid business that addresses two needs and would make our best 18 better.

 

[DangerousD]

Would be better option than Young. But only just.

Tough judge, has played over 230 games of AFL, is a lock in his current side and has been for years, he’s a premiership player who’s kicked over 160 goals as a makeshift forward.

Young is barely AFL quality

 

[bigblueboy]

He won’t be there at our first pick.

Agree with that … but his best is behind him.

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

He won’t be there at our first pick.

I know that, but we’d be crazy to trade up and overlook him.

 

[LemmingMaster]

I'd give out first and second round pick to the first team that blinks if Draper is still around.

 

[DangerousD]

Agree with that … but his best is behind him.

Of course, he’s 32 years old and he is available for free, the same applies to Haynes, but unless we are trading for a ready made CHB, then we dont have many other options.

I’ve switched it off, but McDonald was playing well tonight without May and Lever there as support.

The bar is low, whoever we target needs to be better than Young, McDonald is available and he’s a lot better, even if he’s past his best.

I also like the idea of going after him because it frees up our draft capital to target other areas of need.
