List Mgmt. 2024 List Mismanagement and Trading

[Mutineer]

Is Baldwin worth getting as a rookie if we trade Keane?

I know the Bombers tried to turn him into a defender but for mine he's shown the most as a forward.
Poor bugger could seriously have been a Charlie Curnow bar for all his injuries, think he's had 3 knee reco's after the 1st graft failed IIRC and now stress fractures in his feet have kept him out (navicilar). Best footballer in the land at 16.

Sholl's unlucky there. The way I see it we only get to move 5 or 6 on and I thought Sholl had a better season. Not saying I'm a huge fan, just that there are plenty of others that I'd cull before him.

North could have had Logan McDonald. Still can't believe they took Phillips.

One of the most baffling draft choices in years.

Essendon already into their delistings - meanwhile, we will stuff around for weeks.

No rush. Mad Monday and exit interviews.

I’m at going to be a long 6 weeks to trade period

Nicks would be furious Murphy didn't get a guernsey.

Exit interviews are scheduled for wednesday Mitch Hinge said in his presser.

Yeah our club philosophy has always been to not delist players publicly until after trade week. I think on some rare occassions we have but its definitely rare.

Someone posted on the Draft/Trades board an unconfirmed report that Will Phillips has only been offered a 1 year extension by North.

Is he a need for our list and worth chasing?

Not a point of difference

I’d like Tom Powell though even though he’s not exactly a point of difference either but a better player

I am curious as to how this can be explained by the club. Rankine would have been in the AA if he stayed fit and unsuspended. Thats a given. But every other star player played so badly they couldnt even be considered. But its not the coaches fault?

What about senior coaches. Can they announce their departure before trade week...please....pretty please (asking for a friend)

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I really don't get the obsession with Luko and Philippou. Two really overrated, soft footballers.

You don’t rate Phillipou ?

Extraordinary


Still 19 yo and was on a footy ground with Warner Heeney Gulden etc and was good enough to go head to head and get 10 coaches votes

Gotta be good to do that at his age

If any club wants to take Murphy and Mchenry of our list, id take anyone of theirs. 2 for the price of 1 even.

I bloody well hope so.

Dawson had sore shoulders from carrying everyone when the pressure came in games and that likely took 10% off him

The others no good , keays was probably the closest to making it in the end but wasnt good for whole season

Dawson did likely carry an injury. But its generally not a good reflection on the club as a whole really.

I’d swap pick 4 for him.

He’s still very young, but already 2 years of AFL development in him. As you say, has shown already he can be a match winner. Less risk, and I’m guessing similar upside?, to this years crop of mids.

I’d do pick 4 for sure , more of a difference maker than the player we will select

As I said in his draft year if he was born a few days later he’d likely be a top 3 pick

Nothing he’s done since has changed my mind

Thought hind had been a regular for essendon

They usually announce a first tranche of delistings shortly after the exit interviews - players who they have no hope of trading. This is followed by a second tranche, shortly after the end of the trading period, with the rest of the delistees.

Line breaking speed - was sub a lot, and dropped a few times. Haven’t ever watched him closely enough to see if he would add value to us

I would not be giving up pick 4 for quids. If anything I would be trying to get in another top 10 pick. Its going to be hard, but there may be a club who is stupidly desperate for the "missing piece" (TM) that they'll do something stupid, like we did with Gibbs.

I would also be keen on Luko only at the right price. his price has gone further down being recalled for the last round and having another typical Luko game.

Would look at swapping our F1 for a top 10 pick this year. Bring in Luko. Perryman or Cumming as a FA. Draft Draper and another quality pure midfielder. Welsh. Project ruckman. Job done.

 

[FR0GGY]

Not this year

The essendon fans on Facebook are very surprised.

The SANFL Finals has held things up in recent years. It wouldn't surprise if we see a couple announced at the end of the week but on the whole I think you are right.
