List Mgmt. 2024 List Management thread - Trade Targets Part 2

[Bastyy]

Only letting myself get excited today and today only

If i think about the idea of a Treacy/Jackson/Amiss/Bolton/Pickett/Freddy forward line with a guy like Sturt off the bench then I think I might go insane

 

[stax on the mull]

Alistair Pickett is related to Bolton. Is Kossie?

Need to draw up a family tree. Allistair Pickett said he was related to Darren Bolton and Byron Pickett.

 

[s_wd6]

Cox wouldn't want to leave but I'm asking Switta, Simpson and Reid if they miss family if required

He’d be on decent coin and is here for six. To me the easiest way to make space for Pickett that would impact our team the least. Surely he can be convinced. Much easier to convince someone to move to Melb than Perth. Or one of the SA clubs would be interested surely

 

[wakojako]

suddenly everyone's like..........2024..?!?! What 2024? Man this thread's gonna be busier than a picket-pocket in Picadilly Circus this off-season

wakojako, you've got to be wetter than a dolphin at Waterworld right about now. Kosi f***in' Pickett (assuming all these rumours are going somewhere....).

Absolute madness abounds....!

This is me rn

WA partner with a newborn? No chance

We will need to get our F1st involved for Pickett right?

9 and 17 for Bolton

10 and f1st for Pickett?

Melbourne will be asking for two 1sts.

Nah trade Switta (probably valued around pick 18) + F1.

Which idiot values Switta at 18!

 

[Heave Ho Bro]

This is a terrible look for Melbourne. Like rats abandoning a sinking ship. Gonna be like our last 5 offseasons all rolled into one. Poor bastards

Won’t be a newborn by the time he moves over though. WAGS love Melbourne.

 

[kp junior]

Geez our team with Bolton and Picket would be insane.

Yes and the 2 of them would agree (assuming there's no beef etc). Getting one confirmed-ish asap would go a long way towards framing the Freo decision favorably for the other I reckon.

 

[wakojako]

While it is fun to get excited about Pickett, I doubt he is coming to WA. I am a firm believer that where there is smoke there is fire when it comes to trades. Pickett's manager would have already notified the WA/SA clubs about Pickett, and yet all the inside knowledge points towards Warner landing at Freo. We would be a lot more cooler on Warner (behind the scenes) if we were interested in Pickett.

As exciting as landing Pickett is, Warner is on the trajectory to become a top 10 player. He is only 23 years old! Even if Pickett was open to WA, I would still choose Warner.

 

[go_the_dockers]

We worried about Freddy requesting something if we chase Bolton and Kosi?

Freddy who?

All aboard the Bolton and Pickett train.

 

[ImperialPurple]

Switta valued at 18? Double that and it's a bit closer IMO.

would be an amazing get. If he wants a trade home to be closer to family, hopefully that's WA. I think his only family in SA is Uncle Byron. Not sure where his partner Ardu is from.

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

If Warner isn’t this year, then I’m taking Bolton and Pickett, wan worrying about Warner next year.

Bolton and Pickett is us top 4 and above for a long long time

Pickett is also 23 years old, kicks 40 goals about every season he’s played

 

[serial_thrilla]

Tonga Bob DragoDelph better amend the poll!

 

[Docker82]

If Freddy is our 7th best forward or less, I’m not giving a shit either way.

Honestly don’t think we have a player who’s suited to the HFF any better than he is other than perhaps Switta.

He had a few poor games but I think you back those players to come good again at least for the next season.

I said over last off season that outside second and third year players only Serong, Walters and Jackson improved significantly from 2022 to 2023. If we wrote off all the players that had a bad year in 2023 we would barely have a squad left! We’ve got to back those that’ve shown it previously and are still 26 or younger and recruit to replace both the old blokes and guys that have never really had it. Genuine stars like Bolton are welcome though.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Surely if they ate related and friends then Bolton and Pickett would kill to play together close to home?

 

[freo1997]

Paps on 6pr seems to think Kosi is SA bound.

 

[Joao]

The obvious flag is no reporting of WA, if they say anything it is SA.

So fair to say we shouldn't get our hopes too high.
