List Mgmt. 2024 List Mismanagement and Trading

[Kane McGoodwin]

Would you rather Burgess or Lukosius? simple question...

Well Burgess I don't want playing another AFL game for the club.

Luko I would only chase if the Suns were keen to trade him out for a bargain as we have more pressing needs... but yeah, he can actually play at AFL level.

 

[Crow till I die]

What’s controversial is thinking we automatically move forward relative to the competition despite doing nothing at all.

Other teams don’t stand still, the league doesn’t stand still

Uuugghh..i can hear 'organic growth' being wheeled out soon enough

 

[Crow_68]

Its a good thing Richmond weren’t missing anyone

Oh come on. What have Lynch, Martin, Grimes and co. ever achieved?

 

[Sanders]

Uuugghh..i can hear 'organic growth' being wheeled out soon enough

There’s some organic matter on the nose

 

[BRL121]

We could do worse than recruiting Ainsworth from the GC.

Would you rather Burgess or Lukosius? simple question...

Burgess is depth, so it isn't really comparable. He wouldn't get a game in the best 22.

Thinking hypothetically, a forward line of Fogarty/Thilthorpe/Lukosius/Welsh would run extremely tall. I'd rather wait a year, especially since he's contracted until 2026. No chance Gold Coast gives him up for lower order picks, they'd demand our first (and more).

Hinge a senior player now?

Most recognised the issue with aging Tex and AGREED with the pre-season announcement of resting Tex for certain games - then the club proceeds to put him on a plane to Perth with a crook back???

And you dont think Laird and Smith have been putrid at times?

The calls on RoB have grown louder the last month and a rocket was warranted - guess what the club agreed . Nobody ever said Strachan was a world beater but if it brings a more resolute RoB back then good

Oh and you dont think we look ordinary WITH these senior players?

Yes we do and that is on the club and the coach to identify talent. If the mid-core 50-100 players dont have it then giving them more games wont help anyone

You say we cant mention Nicks yet you post the exact reason we are

Rethink this last paragraph again. You say a bank of players cant do it yet are happy to continue selecting them

Thats the madness

Well Hinge is 26 in a few weeks. 1 year younger than our captain.

Smith has been terrible. Putrid for Laird is probably harsh. But he hasn't been his nest this year, and should he be? I'd put the bigger focus on why Jones, mcHenry, Murphy and Co aren't progressing rather than focusing on a player dropping output who turns 31 this year.

Calls on Rob warranted. Club should face the music on not picking a replacement.

We didn't look ordinary against Port or Carlton.

I also never said others cant mention Nicks.

The whole point of my posts is that I am not happy with the continued selection of Jones, mcHenry, Murphy etc so not sure where you get that last part from.

Schoenberg deserves another year.
Gollant/Hamill should be moved on, Himmelberg will be traded,

My main thought is to clear the low ceiling players out. Its a tough one with Gollant and Himmelberg. We lack height and getting rid of one or both plus Walker is going to hurt us. Probably Burgess will stay on if both those go.

 

[aabp1978]

I honestly think we should target LDU. exactly the type of mid we are missing, and from a club that makes even us look good.

 

[Dangerousfield]

Now up to pick 4

 

[1990crow]

Now up to pick 4

Club to trade it for Petty

 

[ABAB]

Now up to pick 4

The blip we needed in a draft stacked with quality midfielders, we should thanks Nicks with his stupid change of game plan to start the season 4-0 and played catch up all season when he gets sacked next year lol.

 

[bigman]

Gollant played in back half for 15 min today and looked a million times better than up forward. Given he is unlikely to be given a contract if he stays forward let’s try him in defence

Afl to screw us and give North a priority picks, and force us to use our first on Welsh

 

[bigman]

Time to play Curtin on wing or in midfield or up forward to just free him up. He was woeful today and looks completely devoid of confidence

 

[bigman]

Can anyone tell me why we would have two top ups in centre square in reserves today

 

[bigman]

Toby Murray is improving every week but Karl Gallagher can’t play atm

Dreaming of better days in Perth

 

[cleanhands]

Who knows

 

[bigman]

Murray will make us a 2 goal better side. He was a class above any of the players on the field today. He is a bull kills the high ball can take a mark and is a great long kick

 

[crowholder]

because Nicks etc will not play them in the centre square...so preparing them for a possible half forward flank etc in the AFL

 

[Vader]

Schoenberg deserves another year.
Gollant/Hamill should be moved on, Himmelberg will be traded,

Himmbelberg won't be traded. He will walk to GWS as a UFA.

I loved his game today
