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

[Docker82]

Morris has been pretty strong since the start on it being 9 and the Port pick (from his opinion, not a sauce) to be fair.

I'm with Drago thinking it gets done quickly and is pretty far progressed. From my understanding, Morris might have told another poster on here discussions are very far along...

Let's wait and see but I think I've seen this all been said before then once the last day of trade period comes we're still waiting.

Not saying what I've said above is fact btw - I wouldn't be surprised either way.

Waiting for Chad Warner to get done.

 

[poshman]

I don't doubt it but I still think it's a deal that gets done in the last 24 hours.

Only exception is if Pickett is coming as well. I've seen too many trades ruled out at this time of year but happen in October anyway to think it's completely off the table.

It would have to be AFL contrived for it to run through to the last 24 hours. We would want to do other business and need to know where the Bolton deal lands.

I would be very surprised if the clubs haven't already set the price.

Getting the deal done early will free up the slate for any further sneaky-blockbusters from behind the Wall too.

I don't know if we need a trade for this, but having watched the Brisvegas replay yesterday, Zorko's ability to dissect his way out of half-back was really striking. With Young's move mid-forward going gangbusters, finding that polished distrubutor off the half-back is something we should be seriously considering. I don't think we currently have any obvious candidates with a combo of top-shelf game-IQ and precision kicking that can neatly slot in there next year.

I don't see Richmond have any incentive to get the deal done early. It's not like they need the picks for other players. Unless there is prior agreement on the deal they may as well hold out for as much as possible.

They do, to try and leverage pick 6 off Gold Coast.

Toby Travalgia? Could be a decent option

Zorko played forward for Brisbane.

I wonder if we have a forward, who could go back. I can't think of one.

Zorko has been playing behind the ball almost all year.

 

[go_the_dockers]

Zorko has been playing behind the ball almost all year.

Last year?

I thought he only got moved after Coleman went down.

 

[Taylor]

Last year?

I thought he only got moved after Coleman went down.

This season, including the game on the weekend. They stuffed around at the start of their season unable to move the ball out of defense and then Zorko was moved back there and Brisbane started rolling again.

 

[The Feeder Club]

I think we play Chapman too tall and too tight as a defender. We need to free him up so he can use his excellent footy brain and kick more. I hope they change his role this off season

I agree.

I think he's been given a lot of free reign as an attacking defender. Although I would love to see him get more substantial time in a half-fwd or wing role next session, injury allowing.

 

[Dockeroo]

Wouldn’t mind another left footer added as a half back or outside mid.
It’s one of the reasons I like NOD.
Left footed players are a nice point of difference sometimes

 

[mayne iac]

I find the trades that get done early for us are always a downer, we then spend the next few days moping around our offices or houses or bunkers until BANG!!! the final pice of the puzzle happens and we are foaming at the mouth - Premiership favorites!!
Bolton to Happen early - we pay to much - melts galore
Nek Menut.....

 

[arsesmart]

Toby Travalgia? Could be a decent option

Maybe. But I'd be thinking more mature, ready to go options would be the go next year.

 

[mike91]

Think people are setting themselves up for disappointment if they're expecting more than one big fish this off season. Bolton, probably Martin. 0% chance we're getting Chad or Pickett this year.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

In the scenario we get Bolton and Warner, Young going back to the back part time in the future solves the issue. I think...

Shhh.... let us dream

Say what? We move our best midfielder down back.......... go have a nap.

I mean he was getting trained to play wing before his injury + our other defender's injuries this season. I expect he'll play a different role next season. Would be great if Pearce, Cox, and/or McDonald could stay healthy to make it happen though.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Part time. There is only so many midfield minutes to go around between Young, Warner, Bolton, Brayshaw, Serong and whoever plays the supporting role (Ras or Johnson). They all need 2nd spots bar maybe Serong

First bombshell of trade period...

 

[Joao]

Hasn't nominated.

Waiting to see what picks we have left after Bolton, Warner and Kossie I guess Deathly?
