List Mgmt. 2024 List Management thread - Trade Targets

[Jezzitizle]

Ras is tracking fine, bottom ager and 36 touches in his first game back in the wafl in only year 3 - if he was getting it only 15 times you’d start to worry.

No doubt pencilled in the replace Fyfe on the inside, and will be at the right age to do it when Fyfe steps down.

Will never cut teams up by foot, but might get 25-30 touches with 10-15 contested most weeks.

Has a great tank, and the game is as much about outnumbering oppo at contests as anything these days. Massive strength of the Pies last year.

If we have Treacy, Amiss and Jackson particularly forward of the ball, his quick kicks from packs aren’t such an issue because we aren’t getting out marked much.

 

[go_the_dockers]

Yeah but how many years until they are ready?

Small forwards are pretty much ready straight away.

That is who I would be targeting.

 

[purplerunsdeep2]

Def sounds that both McDonald and Errol are off the table

At least short term to RFA

Can’t lose with three 1sts round picks, if we miss on every target, we bank the cash and take two top 10 picks to the draft. Decent consolation prize

 

[Joao]

Not sure anybody really thought Errol was on the table. The Chad is the one given the info about him wanting home.

Use the picks this year so we can blow the 2025+2026 picks with abandon.

You make a great point about the young forwards not being out marked.

All three of them seem to get to contest either by efforts or smarts and bring the ball to ground.

I am totally fine with the Amiss, Jackson and Treacy combo.

I wouldn't mind trading some of the picks for future picks.

Teams tend to overrate their chances and overpay for current picks.

Gives us further assets to trade with and Tasmania will dominate the 2027 draft, therefore making the 2025 and 2026 drafts very valuable.

In 2021 Baker was recorded as Richmond's second fastest player clocking 34.74 km/hr. Very interesting. I will have to watch him more.

If this makes sense he wasn't considered fast at the time he was drafted. The Richmond coaches instructed him to work on his explosiveness and he did.

I was dead against it but I’d trade the highest one if it’s a top 4 pick. Would be open to doing it until we hit the jackpot like we might do with Pies

 

[purplerunsdeep2]

One first for Baker
One for the Chad (and saints 2nd)
One first to trade into next years

Devil is in details. Trading out late first picks would better and as you said hopefully the other team fall off the cliff.

Would mind trading up for the right player as well.

Another thing to consider is that the WA talent will be in 2025 and we are still a young team.

 

[malpaso]

I hate Baker, on the same level other teams hated Ballantyne but if he was in Purple it'd be different because he does bring a whole lotta of effort and dogged determination.

We're not getting Chad out of the Swans with a year to run and if we did it would be 2 firsts easily.

If Chad is a thing, it's next year.

 

[FreoGirl]

Brodie for Yeo.

Yes or No?

He’s the only WCEs player I like

Shame it seems to be mostly a midfield draft though

Watson seems to have been exception but small forwards seem to always be underrated on these kind of rankings until draft night. I’m positive there will be quality forward around our picks come draft night (wherever they are)

Ohhh definetly!! Would be great if there was a Key Forward in there as well

Negative, we don’t need to draft a key forward

 

[Eski3]

The best small forward talent seems to go towards the end of the first round. If Logan resigns at Sydney the odds of us getting someone like Malakai Champion with a late first significantly increase.

Just grab the best available KPF with our top 10 pick and an elite small forward with a late first. We honestly can't lose with our draft hand

 

[bellie4pm]

Not sure i have seen anything on this on here but…

Busslinger is playing vfl as kpd currently. Was a first round draft pick a couple of years ago but hard to break into bulldogs atm.

Any possibility of dockers targeting him as a future AP or luke ryan replacement? In contract but woulda thought he would be after more opportunities at afl level?

Why draft a young KPF, it’s not making any difference anytime soon and will be hard to give them games?

...said the Freo list manager every year for the last 20 years (barring 2021).

 

[Dockeroo]

Brodie won't be worth a second. Yes, he is contracted, but getting his salary (albeit only low/moderate) off our books would be part of it. We wouldn't get anything more than chump change. WC won't use their 2nd and don't have a 3rd. At this stage it would be their 4th, which is basically a junk pick in the range where clubs are passing.

As for Erasmus, you have to ignore where he was drafted. He's only getting 10-20 if he was actually in the side and performing well. And if that is the case, then he probably wants to stay and we wouldn't want to trade him. If he plays the year out in the WAFL and asks for a trade, the best we can hope for is a 2nd rounder that is going to be in the 30's with all the compo picks, F/S, NGA, etc.

Absolutely correct. Some of the trade values being bandied about here for Erasmus and Brodie are delusional.

Id say because once Taberner retires it leaves us with Amiss and Treacy. Yes I get we want Jackson as a key forward but what are the actual odds that Darcy stays healthy? Slim at best I think
