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

[yakamoto]

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

You won’t here anything about Warner until Syd season is done

it’s in straight sets and things will get clearer

Here's how I think it's played out

• Walls has been calling Pickett and Warner every day since Schultz went through. They were targets number 1 and 2 over this and next year from the start. We set everything up for these two
• Warner seemed / seems keen but Pickett was a hard sell until Melbourne start to fall apart. Sydney tell us repeatedly "over my dead ****ing body"
• Baker says, I'm coming back, but we know from previous chats we are unlikely, we throw the hat in the ring anyway because adding Baker this year is better than adding nothing if it all falls through
• Bolton calls, "Wallsy, this place sucks, can I come over there"
• "Woah, yeah, your pretty good but we have this thing with The Cha..."
• "Kozzie said he'll come as well if I do"
• "Chad who? Welcome to Freo Shai"

 

[DragoDelph]

There is no way in hell we have the currency to get Bolton, Koz & Warner done this year.

And that's before Rivers sees Koz leave and want to tag along as well.

And there's still a chance Baker flips back again.

Fuuuuuuuuuu.....

 

[Dayts]

wonder how much Raz & Switta come into conversation with this.

Gotta find the room for Schache and Vic Matt Johnson as well

 

[Quazar2]

Don't think I've refreshed pages and checked the AFL website this much for aeons. Goddammit!!

Fluff you football, as one Corlene might exclaim just when I thought I was 'out', you pulled me back in....effs sake!

We already missed on Zurrhaar … don’t break my heart.

Ladies and Gents,

In light of the information that has come out over the past 24 hours, may I present to you.. Operation Trinity.



Pickett 2025
Bolton 2025
Warner 2026

 

[Taylor]

Regarding having the currency for Warner if we trade our first round picks this year and next for Bolton and Pickett, as we will see this season - the only thing that really matters is the player's nomination.

But it does make this offseason a lot better that Treacy has already been signed long term or he would be the player both clubs seek to swap for theirs.

 

[DragoDelph]

Speaking of Treacy, he was nearly out the door last year.

Had a Walters style talking to (same as Lobb, Logue etc.) and it didn't go down too well to begin with.

His off-season and on-season would indicate the message got through.

If Darcy is in the same boat, and the message isn't getting through, shrugs

For that, I think we have to keep our F1 intact even ignoring the salary. Not sure how we can do it unless we hand over a decent player and both teams take reasonable deals. I'm basically valuing both players as the same value.

Pick 9 + Pick 27 + Player?
Pick 10 + Pick 17 (hopefully ends up 14)

Who ever deals first can take their pick of the two deals.

I think I'm happy to forgot the Chad if we get those two though.

If Trac is out,

Maybe Pick 9 + Pick 27 + Swit + Brodie?

See Snuff, this is why we need you writing our trade period adventures again.

And oh how it paid off. At that point it seemed like Wallzy was setting up for we are all in on LMac... Nek minit... JT activate beast mode... LMac who?

Then LMac slinks back to Sydney after Wallzy makes it clear we don't need you anymore.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I mean if I was ever going to be pulled back in, a Bolton/Pickett wombo combo is tempting...

 

[G Mus]

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

Bolton was leaking to mates back in Feb

wtf really. i had no idea. thats what caused this form.

 

[DragoDelph]

Yeah, I was pretty shocked as well.

Seems it's very much a case of "You're either on the bus, and will work as hard as possible for success, or you're out"

The Serong article from today, and the NOD interview post game kinda ram that home as well.

 

[MadMundy]

Proud of the club if they've taken the hard stance in regards to player's futures at the club, if you're here you're here for the long haul, if not, **** off.

 

[Bringbacktheeighties]

She's a girl

Plenty of time

 

[The Feeder Club]

Just catching up with this Kosi chat, on a scale of 1-10 being highly unlkely to certainty, it sounds about a 4 at best to me

i1. He's pulled this stunt before in prior off seasons and is a known flip-flopper
2. Too hgh a price to pay draft wise, probably higher than Bolton knowing how hard Melbourne will fight (very) versus how hard Richmond will fight (not as much)

He'd be brilliant but can't see it happening really
