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

[Aristotle Pickett]

What do you think the direction for the Tigers List Managment is?

Are they going to draft heavy or trade for players or a bit of both?

We are definately looking for 1st round draft picks to rebuild but we probably want to keep one of Baker, D. Rioli and Bolton imo.
If a club wants to pay overs for Rioli and Bolton we could trade them both though.

 

[FreoRicci]

Yes I am scared about the possibility of another big trade bust, however prior to the season I was asked who is the one player/type of player Freo need, I said Shai Bolton - thinking it would never happen. This is a massive deal.

He always goes off v Fremantle too. 4 goals last time.
He’s the X factor we need.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Bolton’s manager Anthony Van Der Wielen told Foxsports.com.au in a statement he “has not requested a trade” but confirmed there were “ongoing discussions with Richmond throughout the season where he has indicated that he would be open to the idea of returning home to Perth if a suitable deal can be struck that benefits all parties involved.

“With a young family and strong ties to Perth, the prospect of being closer to home is appealing to him. However, Shai is not making any demands of Richmond and fully understands that he has four years remaining on his current contract.”

Mate, you'd have to be a complete nuffy to think that means anything other than "Bolton wants to leave"

I think you need to enrol in a PlayerManagerese language course

Here’s some translations to get you through the upcoming 76 pages prior to the trade.

‘Happy to stay’ = Damn, I signed this long ass deal. My manager says I need to grateful, but I really want to go…

‘Has requested a trade’ = Has requested a trade.

‘Hasn’t requested a trade’ = Has requested a trade.

‘We’re happy to keep him’ = Man… I hope we bend them over proper and pick up some shiny new toys.

‘Good luck having someone at your club that doesn’t want to be there’ = This poster is annoying me, but really I have nothing…

‘He’s contracted, so we can ask overs’ = We can ask for roughly 350% over what would be reasonable and not even flinch at our own comments.

‘We hold all the power’ = I just hope we don’t stuff this up.

‘Overs’ = Ridiculous overs
‘Fair’ = overs for the seller, buyers still paid overs but walk away thinking it was fair.
‘Unders’ = fair

‘Premiership window’ = You’re just better than us at the moment.

‘X factor’ = he can kick goals with both feet

36 words used when he just could have said "He gorn'.

Of all supporter bases, you'd think we were the ****ing experts in this shit. WYKYK.

We are experts in the more regional dialect of Bellanese which sadly feels like it might be going the way of latin

Lots of good stuff here but this really made me snort

 

[freo84]

It means he's happy to stay if a deal is not reached which is different to demanding a trade.
You'd be mad not to make a play for him. He would be the missing jigsaw puzzle piece in a premiership tilt.

There's fair value and club crushing Tim Kelly value.

Lately we've tended to be a little more once bitten twice Shai

 

[DQ 4EVER]

Missing finals should be a real jolt to the club. It's really unacceptable and the club will be feeling the choker tag this week.

Anyone that doesn't have a contract will be nervous. However, If we cut Sturt, I expect Cockburn will be visited by one of those Ukrainian FPV bombs.

If Switta requests a trade which he is rumoured to be doing, then I think we will trade him. I think Richmond will ask for 3 first round draft picks for Bolton, and we will do it.

Those bombs are required elsewhere

I just don't understand these players sign 5-6 year deals.

And the clubs offer them.

Don't they think oh gee if we have 2 kids is it a bright idea to sign such a long contract.

We don't have the support network.

It's like our contract with Darcy it's looking more ridiculous by the week let alone the year 2030 fmd.

 

[Bojangles17]

A few of you guys are kidding yourselves , a couple of premiership stars in shai and bakes will be more help to your flag ambitions than the 3 draft pics , heck you could do with them this weekend ,. The deal will get done

You’re one Jamie Graham knee injury from career over and both club and player know that contracts are bendy if necessary to move.

Long deals also smooth payments for the club giving them flexibility

That's gold and sums it up perfectly but you forgot rinse and repeat!

It's going to be a long 7 weeks until trade week... sigh...

 

[Tbonefreo]

Shai is contracted until 2028. If you want him you need to pay up. Picks 7 ,12 and 16 ( edit picks 7 and 12 only) would do it otherwise we can get West Coast pick 3
We are happy to keep him otherwise

Clearly a joke post

 

[freocuz]

There will never be a better time for West Coast to get fair value for Harley Reid. If he’s going to play for a shit team, he may as well do so in Victoria.

We give our two first for Bolton, Richmond give both of those plus Pick 1 and Baker for Reid.

Never happen I know but gee I would sell our draft farm this year for the Trac in a heart beat.

 

[Docker82]

Lol at Bigfooty supporters thinking a club can just double a player's valuation because a player is contracted. It adds value but if any club is ridiculous about it either club just walks away.

A top ten pick is massive for Richmond's rebuild. They need that as much as we need a small forward and Bolton isn't the only good small forward in the competition that we can target in the next 2-3 years or so.

With all Richmond's later picks it just looks like something that a third club can help us get done tbh. In fact it may not get done without it.

What's your offer then?

A Sausage Roll, Tomato sauce & a bag of Skittles

[Joao]

Nobody on this board is going to agree that we'll pay 3 first rounders and I dare so nobody here cares that you think the Tigers deserve it.

Not sure you have much to gain by continued posting here.

7 and 12 which would become 9 and 14 is fair .
imo.
I think some people here undervalue him. He was called the best player in the league by one commentator last year.
If you think you can get better players at 7 and 12 do that.

We don't have 7, the best we can do is 9 or 10 depending on this weekend.

But I agree it is likely the best and worst first rounders that do this.
