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

[Heave Ho Bro]

Get ready to get pissed off;

What a fantastic system. Hawthorn get a player while giving up zero assets and St. Kilda get a pick from thin air that fcks over everyone who picks after them in the draft order. Gotta love it.

 

[DragoDelph]

I don't think Hawks upped their offer enough.

Can't be sure, but they wouldn't have as much to throw around as the Saints.

If both Bolton and Pickett eventuate I could see why the Switta return to Melbourne rumours were swirling.

I wouldn’t like it, but is there a chance Switta / Sturt form part of the Pickett trade ?

Sturt just re-signed, there's a 0% chance he's involved.

Sturt re-signed for two years yesterday, he’s staying.

Pickett and Bolton for Switta? I like Switta but I’d be packing his bags and driving him to the airport myself.

Lately it is more contracted than uncontracted players that are getting traded or requesting trades.

 

[DragoDelph]

Saints "hoping" it's enough

's old man Darren played for Fremantle. A grand total of 2 games in 1999. A fellow NSHS boy, we were in the same year.

Really think they need to remove free agency compensation and change the requirements to be either restricted or unrestricted. Should be based off a number of things like new contract, games played that season, age etc.

There's always ways to match deals for restricted free agents by adjusting the cap.

It'd force the majority of restricted free agents into trades and lesser players who are unrestricted free agents can just move to who they like.

It kind of stinks better clubs can just bring in good players for nothing and the current system actively encourages the weaker clubs to let their players walk.

Wait until they bring in purchasing cap space for picks...Saints could lose Battle, get pick 7 then sell the cash they were going to use on Battle for another pick. The system is a joke.

 

[freo_leo29]

Imagine how much easier things could've been if these players didn't sign the unnecessary extensions

I reckon both boys were due to be ooc this year originally

I think compo could still play a part they have a rolling 5-10 year period. Only the teams that are constantly getting raided and not topping up get access to it under the same sort of rules. No way should you be getting a heap of free agents that the rest of the comp pay for and one year you have a player leave you get compo.

The sting of 2024's failure is definitely mitigated by the prospect of Shai and Kozzy running around in purple together. It automatically gives us the most dangerous fwdline in the league - ****ing get it done Freo. Yeah, we'd be removing ourselves from the draft for the third consecutive year but we just have to do it.

 

[Eski3]

Come on Kozzy make the trade request official so we can really start popping the champagne

No popping (other than collars) until the trade is officially done.

Correction - the sting is not taken away by a "prospect". The sting will only be taken away if it becomes a reality.

1) Kozzy and his management have denied or watered down the rumours
2) that 2 of 4 mid sized small that would routinely towel us up that are now on our side.

Call me hopeful but leaking who your desired club is and the desired club knowing they are the desired club may as well as make it official. Same as Bolton a few weeks ago really

 

[Cam Payne]

I just hope this isn't like how excited I felt at 4:05pm Sunday and how depressed I was by 7:00pm Sunday.

Re Possible retirement of Fyfe. He is obviously well past his best on this season’s showing. Probably very unlikely to show improvement next year .
I wonder how much the legacy he leaves will weigh on his mind? As time goes on there will be an ever increasing cohort of supporters for whom the Brownlow years of peak Fyfe will have come a distant memory or simply part of the club history.

 

[tugga]

Imagine having Bolton and Pickett changing between mid and forward!
Bolton centre clearance numbers are insane.
No September holidays for you lot for a while.

 

[Heave Ho Bro]

It's all down to Melbourne and Richmond now to play ball. They would be well within their rights to hold both players to the contracts. But if they don't want to be there what's to gain? Never a better time to cash in with all the picks we have.

The question is if Warner actually says he wants to come this trade period who are we rejecting of the 3 players?

Warner isn't coming, we haven't got to a public stage with these two if Warner was a thing this year
