Is Jake Stringer worth going after?
Is Jake Stringer worth going after?
We've been saying this for 20 yearsFull confidence in the team to have a great trade period and ND, we'll be bursting at the seams with talent. This is the list management year that propels us relentlessly up the ladder, Nicks will bask in the glory and profess his genius handling of the launchpad 2024 season.
Now who is going to make way for all the in cummings?
Pick 18 is cursedYou know who's had a lot of first round delists?
Geelong.
So ideallyWhat players should we looking at bringing in next offseason as we all hope the premiership window opens up in 2025?
Hayward - free agent?
Petty - contracted
A grade midfielder? Oliver, McCluggage, LDU
Who gets delisted, traded or retires?
Himmelberg, Sloane, Smith, Bond, Sholl, McHenry, Cook, Parnell, Borlase, Hamill

Exactly.You know what else Geelong have had in the last 20 years?
Plenty of father sons.Exactly.
Shit ruckmen, and lots of first round fails in the draft.
And yet ...
I mean, that's fair enough, but here's their first round picks of the last 15 years or so.Pick 18 is cursed
Thats true about Ottens - but he retired 13 years ago!Plenty of father sons.
Plenty of qualiry players traded in, many for bargains, helped by the AFL.
Ps. Ottens was a gun!
You were responding to a post about the last 20 years... so Ottens very much in this time frame & key part of their flags.Thats true about Ottens - but he retired 13 years ago!
There's something interesting there. Maybe 12 of their last 14 first round picks have been busts - but they're a massively successful club.
It helps they have a constant stream of former Geelong Falcons returning home, even from Melbourne based clubs.You were responding to a post about the last 20 years... so Ottens very much in this time frame & key part of their flags.
They have traded a huge proportion of their 1st round picks... perhaps we should have too in hindsight.
Nothing shit about Brad OttensExactly.
Shit ruckmen, and lots of first round fails in the draft.

I've been his hardest critic on BF I reckon, but I've been watching him a bit lately on his fishing spots and he seems like a very likeable lad. Pity he's such a below average footballer. I still want him delisted but I wish him all the best with his endeavours.yep he was a beauty.
Schoenberg is under contract, so we won't be cutting him.You're missing the fact that Schoenberg could be on the chopping block along with Gallagher
hes got a tv career in him. he's actually quite bright on 5aa talking about players association issues. he just isn't afl standardI've been his hardest critic on BF I reckon, but I've been watching him a bit lately on his fishing spots and he seems like a very likeable lad.

If we’re trading 25 for ANB (ew) maybe they’re thinking 4, Welsh and a rookie upgrade? Maybe Keane comes onto the main list as one of the three mandatory picks, and we can then open up another rookie list spot for a contracted player. It’s a break-even regarding total list spots, but just an idea as to what our very weird list management could be thinking.
He is OOC and we could probably pick him up in the PSD for free if we really wanted...Would this work. If Smith goes to Geelong, I would look at trading Pk 25 to Geelong for Parfitt.
