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

you listened to 20 mins of ads?
Stick to BF

How am I supposed to hear the Install a Rheem ad 1000 times or hear all the Continental Tyres special deals??

The reaction to Baker is interesting. Will be fascinating to see how he goes at west coast. Moot point now but the Last time I remember our fanbase being so underwhelmed about a potential recruit, was when we selected Caleb Serong with pick 8 in 2019 instead of Dev Robertson.

Some prominent freo fans in social media had a massive Dev Robertson campaign ongoing at that time.

If you look at the first page of Caleb’s welcome post on BF, you can sense the resignation and disappointment at the pick from many of the posts…
Hilarious reading in hindsight.

Baker will be good for them…solid player, which they need

Gabelich on now - will he talk about Picket?

Eagles think they're playing 4D chess. They're now banking on Baker and Graham coming to Eagles as an endorsement, but the reality is their supporters don't want those players and it's going to have an adverse reaction when they give up an early pick. Freo placed their marker at 10.

As I typed, it's reported Baker has now selected Eagles... as we all knew he would do regardless of appointment.

What are they giving up for Baker, anyone know?

 

[oldgoat]

Could see us offering 9 + F1 for Bolton and keeping 10,16

our 2025 F1 wont be worth much

 

[oldgoat]

So theyve announced Baker with nothing but #3 in their pocket?

 

[oldgoat]

Got a very excited Eagles supporter at work. He's stoked.

hope is the last thing to die...I know

Ralph has all the unashamedly pro-Richmond answers you seek;

They’ll get something for Barrass. Not sure what yet but that’ll be what Richmond target

 

[oldgoat]

Yes but he rates him. We all see the game differently i guess.

Pick 13 is a bit high for him but he will help the Eagles immensely.

We just need Bolton to nominate us now..

got a point...he will help WC more than he would us

 

[Lach72]

First player to actually say just get me home…apparently

 

[Arkhitect]

Rioli for 6 is bonkers. I'd expect Richmond to send CG a number of future picks to even out the trade.

Thats how the trade period works, you have to think beyond the next trade to get what you want, espec when you're rebuilding.

 

[MadMundy]

Getting PTSD of the Hogan trade with this segment.

No that was Jackson last year, don't you remember?

"It will come down to whichever team offers Tigers the best offer" but really there's only going to be one team presenting an offer.

 

[MadMundy]

Bolton will get to us, he has no reason to go to West Coast.

 

[Joao]

I'm sure the Eagles would love Bolton, but there is no way they cough up 3 for him, which is the only way to offer a better deal than us. Especially not if they are actually planning to give the Tigers 13 for Baker.

It's completely irrelevant.

Bolton just isn't nominating a club out of respect for Richmond due to his 4 years.

 

[oldgoat]

Ralph has all the unashamedly pro-Richmond answers you seek;

So they lose Baker, Bolton and Rioli...
Then smash the draft!
Beat the Tassie Tax!
BOLD!
They will be next in line after our Threepeat!

 

[mayne iac]

After all of this Tiger draft haul crap, I'd be tempted to tell Shai sorry mate we'll give pick 9 for you and that's it.
Go the Eagles if ya want. Fk the Tigers and their rebuild and fk the eagles, the can have him, we are not helping 2 very powerful but now irrelevant clubs to get better.
Its starting to grate on me.

 

[Dockeroo]

Don’t want a bidding war to start for Bolton. Surely Morris is full of shit and he’s got a preferred club?

 

[poshman]

If Bolton and Baker come we have no excuses but to make top 4 and challenge.

Even without Bolton and Baker we have no excuse in my mind. Our list, our age and the talent we have on every line. No excuse at all.

There's no bidding war. West Coast aren't offering up pick 3 for him.

And if they do, good for them lol. It'll be funny.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

I continue to be completely bemused that everything suggests we can "get away with" 9 and 16 while Baker is consistently talked about as pick 10-15 and Rioli is clearly pick 6. We honestly seem to be comfortably getting the most reasonable price on the best and most contracted player at Richmond.

Strange times

Seems too good to be true...

Did he say anything?
