List Mgmt. 2024 List Management thread - Trade Targets

[arsesmart]

Geelong got a taste of their own medicine. I question that Geelong's are better, when Brisbane noticeably changed tactics theirs went missing, not to mention Daniher had to ruck the entire second-half.
The Cats are regular season heroes, well coached no doubt but they had Port first up to get into a Prelim. who on top of playing like carp were under-manned.

This season would have to go down as putting up one of the shakiest fields to contend for the flag in a very long time. All have brought in very major flaws and caveats.

2025 draft holds the promise of Curtin, Whan, Hart and McManus for us.

How is that going to impact our strategy with draft picks this year and for 2025/26?

If we trade our high draft picks for Warner, can we pay using our 26 draft hand and circumvent the inevitable downgrading attached to Tassie coming in?

Yes we can go into points deficit but it will eat away our highest picks first.

Yes we can go into points deficit but it will eat away our highest picks first.

If the players aren't taken in the first round then our future first round pick is quarantined from deficit points.

But if we are getting first round academy talent I'm not going to complain about a mid teens pick moving into pick 22

Almost! Huge year coming from MJ. I think he’s gonna have a JT like breakout season

Johnson needs a big summer to stay in the 22. O'Driscoll offers more IMO and the club will want to get Cooper Simpson into the side next year.

Will they though? Simpson has been pretty average playing for Peel

Interesting to see how our 2–4-year-old players if they take the next step:

Simpson, Draper, Reidy, Johnson, and Erasmus. Amiss is already best 22.

Just because Simpson was our highest draft pick that year doesn't mean we will feel compelled to get him into the side in front of consistent performers. Simpson has to start showing a lot more in games to get picked.

Brad Close would be handy.

Brad Close would be handy.

Would be a handy player. Let be honest though we would be going for Pickett over him regardless of if we offered him a bag

 

[mayne iac]

Him and Bolton would be a MASSIVE injection to our team.

Sliding doors moment of rushing Alex Pearce back for games against Melbourne and WC instead of giving him 2 extra weeks to heal could be the difference between missing the 8 and winning a flag this year.

We aren't going for Brad Close, he aint as good as Shoota and we clearly didn't want to pay Shoota whatever the pies were offering

Shoota wanted to get home for family reasons (good ones) thats why freo were happy to trade him

We would have gone close if not won the flag if Pearce, Treacy and Darcy were healthy. Baker and Bolton will be big inclusions next year.

Shoota was nothing to do with money come on. He had genuine reasons to be back in Victoria. We were actively trying to extend him long term.

Brad Close is also a load of bullshit. But no correlation between the two.

Extra two weeks would have done nothing. They other option was giving him the full 8 weeks to heal without a plate and it would’ve been same result.

Close is also from SA.
