List Mgmt. 2024 List Management thread - Trade Targets

[yakamoto]

We have several current best 23 whom could/should be upgraded on next year.
If Switta leaves Baker would be an excellent replacement.
Switta is only an occasional goal kicker so Baker not inferior in that respect.

 

[anchor man]

I agree

Also, I don’t think Brodie will play for us next year

I agree re Brodie and there are a few more that will either be delisted or ask to be traded to other clubs.
Hughes is one that will more than likely be asked to retire or the club look for another club for him.Is there room to keep Emmett, Worner, Noddy, Kuek.

 

[Tundrawolf]

I just can't see the club's appeal for Baker given if all things were equal he'd choose West Coast over us 9 times out of 10.

Surely that's an indication of the mindset of the guy. Come home on good pay and cruise around for the rest of his career with a couple of flags from his Richmond days.

Liam, please choose West Coast so we can all get on and plan on what we are spending on Bolton/Warner or who we'll draft from Vic Country.

 

[Purple Suit]

Robbing Peter to pay Paul!!!!!
So we drop the thoughts that Noddy and Stanley can fill the opposite wing to Sharp!!

If Paul is a better player than Peter, I’m all for it.

Only time could tell.

I would think he is afar more professional than what you are thinking.
He has played for a long time at Richmond. Never affected the way he plays.

I reckon there is room for Emmet as he played a lot early.

Probably sign Noddy on the rookie list for 1-2 years and go from there.

I’d be worried if I was worner to be honest.

And kuek will stay next year but from there on I’d be worried as well not because he’s no good but because of his injuries so if he doesn’t get a game that could be a problem.

 

[bellie4pm]

I'm always open to being wrong lol, sometimes I can state things as fact but I normally try to add an "imo" at the end of it.

I only got as defensive here because people seemed to be having a sarcastic dig at me rather than countering my points.

What u say is often spot on boomer

 

[Nodgey]

I see Chapman moving into the midfield ala Fyfe. Agile, evasive and seems to be able to create time and space for himself. Could Chappy be the next Bont!

One that I hope we can keep somehwo is Oden Jones. I know very little about him, but what I have seen he looks a likely candidate.Big, strong likes the hard stuff and looks to have good skills.Has been said he can play either end of the ground and is a more than useful ruckman.Only 19 and 197.
But in saying that, does it leave Corbett and Knobel susceptible?

 

[bellie4pm]

Awesome news if Kelm can finally join us. The guy looks like an absolute weapon

'The Ultan of Swing' ?

Ultan of Wing even

 

[Bicco]

Every year we get shocked by someone wanting to leave who we didn’t expect. I wonder who it will be this year?

 

[yakamoto]

Jones was quite impressive preseason.

 

[Polo342]

In my opinion if Warner wont Re sign this year then Sydney should just deal him a year early. We could potentially have 2x Top 10s and a Teens pick this to give away. Surely thats a lot better than next year when we will likely have late firsts for years to come. Add in the fact that Parker and Mills are pretty replacements when ready.

 

[theGav56]

Of course, bringing in these players thatwe recruit, more than likely leaves us with players that we may have to move on as part of the deal.
Could Chappy become one of them.
It is ok to get new players in from other clubs, but the doiwn side is that most times players from our club need to be moved as well. When that happens,we generally get the ... "why are we losing him,and him and him".
Happens all the time, Logue ,Hamling, etc.

I am in the all players are tradeable group, so yes Chapman could become one of them. I also think are 99.5% likelihood he is Freo for life.

He was out for quite a long time and had to make some physical adjustments to reduce injury likelihood. To me that means he has upside.

 

[Alfonz]

Can someone tell me what the attraction is to move Heath Chapman to a wing.
I don't see him as a wingam. I am not sure he has the taank to take on the running that is needed there.
I think he is a good back man, but not sure about as a wing man.

Chapman recorded an elite yo-yo result when testing as a junior. He got to level 73 (or 21.6). Sam Walsh for example made it to level 76 (22.1). Giro and Brayshaw made it a touch further. Chappy also won the WA combine 2km.

I personally think trading into the future for a player that might not come at all is a flawed strategy.

Last year it was McDonald who ended up staying. Now it's Warner. What if he doesn't come either?

I can easily see a situation where we keep putting off using those picks and a 2013 type situation happens because we didn't recruit a player we really needed. The result is us being nearly there but not quite there again.

Also we're talking coaches side wing here presumably. Doesn't require quite as many KM's as fat side and you're going to have a higher contested ball ratio

E.g. this is O'Meara v Sharp for this year



Jaeger's contested possession ratio is 50% larger and more than double clearances (He's only attended 18 CBA's for the entire season so its not really inflated by playing on ball)

 

[Mogumber]

Yeah I think draft best available, its a deep draft this year, so early picks will be marginal in difference.
Have to go Vic metro, Vic country, maybe Sid Draper from SA.
Small forwards should be our priority

The club believes Knobel will be better than Reidy and I agree.
And Corbett will probably be delisted and Be offered a coaching role.

I am not sure the club was really chasing McDonald.
With the forward we have, I believ that he wasn't needed.
Warner is a much more viable player for us.He tears games apart.

Sharp is really only a one wing player.At Perth stadium he is hardly ever on the coach side wing.Almos always on the outer wing.His job out there is to make the play when we swich the play.That is when his pace comes into his play. That is providing he bounces the ball before getting pinded by the umps.
I am not sure that too many teams actually run with two wing men.I think the other wing is basically filled by another mid like O'Meara.

so does Bolton but Bolton can probably command a million in the rebuilding Richmond whereas Warner extracting good money out of Sydney for his next contract could be a lot more restricted due to so many stars. Therefore, have a crack at Warner (and Bolton) this year and if he isn't coming, use our probable 2 top 10s to secure our next crop of stars, Walls style.

 

[Taylor]

Fitness isn't the concern I have about Chapman in the middle, it's that he is at the point where he is strong but not strong enough to use his frame height to shove guys away. He doesn't have the speed to clear immediately and not yet the size to shove them off.

He still looks like a teenager across the shoulders and that skinny side winger needs to wear a lot of hits

My thinking is opposite. If there is only a marginal difference between picks then focus on needs.
