List Mgmt. 2024 List Mismanagement and Trading

[El Doederino]

Hamill, Parnell , Keane are rookies . Don’t we need main list spots ?

Not sure. My accountant handles that.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Not sure why so many people are excited about Keane leaving

Keane leaving = Borlaise playing a large number of games next year as our key backs seem quite injury prone and he’s next man in

Careful what you wish for

Would make it a lot easier to get Luko and ANB, without either giving up either our F1, or 25

Good thing Nicks played Smith enough to trigger his clause .

This is true but only if he makes it MUCH easier than trading Berry for example

 

[IddyBiddy]

Both... We have Crouch and laird... All similar players

Significant age difference. Keeping Berry would be a good outcome.

 

[Firewalker]

Borlase's kicking is Sam Mitchell like compared with Leek Alee, athletics on steroids for sure but that kicking is a worry.

Agree but still feel Aleer’s positives outweighs the negatives, especially his athleticism which does make Borlase look like Grenville Dietrich in comparison. Just get him to handball to Hinge or Cumming

 

[latinoheat]

Got a feeling we’ll be trading out or dropping a contracted player to rookie list if we get everyone linked to us

 

[GameofSloanes]

The usual weak list management decision giving a cooked smith another year of superannuation.

Out of their hands. If we wanted him gone shouldn't put the trigger in his contract or not selected him to play. That's when the mistake was made

 

[GameofSloanes]

Significant age difference. Keeping Berry would be a good outcome.

Cant keep everyone if we want to bring better players in. Berry is a fumble merchant and barely / just outside best 22 imo

 

[GameofSloanes]

Imagine if keeping tex or smith means we miss upgrades like cumming or ANB. Or we play smith ahead of ryan dowling curtin or taylor next year

Probably highly likely Smith will still get delisted, he’ll just likely now be moved to the rookie list in one of the spots Hamill & Parnell vacate.

 

[JimmyTheScoop]

Surely Pickett gets to Port after the rumours circuling this year and last. However, if we can somehow to convince him to come over - imagine a forward line with Rankine and Pickett he does miss first three rounds with suspension though haha
I’m excited about ANB, Cuming and Luko as well. If we can somehow nab Rosas for a packet of chips I wouldn’t be too mad either.
And finish it off with pick 4 Draper

And Welsh

Maybe Strachan too, I can’t see other teams desperately needing an almost-30yo ruck

Absolutely dropping one to the rookie list. And it’s Schoenberg.

 

[Viva la Mattner]

I’d definitely try to find a KPD DFA in that scenario, might have to let EH go to another team, too (which is probably fine if we’re getting Luko)

If we’re after a DFA as depth then may as well pickup Denver Grainger-Barass for free

 

[pjcrows]

Tex re-signs?

We'll never learn.

 

[NTRabbit]

Uncontracted Hugh Bond would be a chance for a demotion to the rookie list if we need to free up an additional main list spot, there's a reason he remains both unsigned and unmentioned - it's either that, occupying the rookie spot previously held by a subsequently delisted Hamill or Parnell, or they're holding him over to keep a main list spot with whatever spare change is left in the cap after the trade period is over.

Maybe Strachan too, I can’t see other teams desperately needing an almost-30yo ruck

Strachan is contracted until end of 2025, I don't see us paying him out

 

[El Doederino]

He’s been delisted?

Pick 4 (Pure-mid)

Welsh

Hamill, Gollant retained as Rookies
Think we hang onto Keane. Would only trade for a first or future first. Would be nice to stay in Rnd1 next year and gamble on another teams misfortune (need another good deathride thread).

I think we have the salary cap to get it done. We should be far more comfortable than Port to make a higher offer to Pickett (if there is anything to that rumour). Regardless, we shouldn't touch Pick 4 and get a pure-mid. We have loads of cap space and need to actually use it on bringing in guaranteed best-22 players. If there is anything to the future first to GC for pick-6 rumour - get it done. We should finish higher next year with the in's we will have and natural improvement, even with the same coaching panel.

It’d be the player that’s least likely to be picked up by another club, contracted or not

Bond surely has more clubs that like him than, say, Strachan?

I like it, but falls over at future first for Pick 6.

 

[RePete]

Probably. But if Pickett was to request trade to us, we should still be able to generate enough trade capital to get it done. You know Port will if it comes to it. I want us to be ruthless. We should be a powerhouse club that makes the hard calls - not a pedestrian club like St Kilda or Norf.

 

[Golumless]

Tex re-signs?

We'll never learn.

Eh, it's not like Tex was in the Sloane/Smith bracket performance wise. After all, 10.4 disposals/1.6 goals/0.9 goal assists/3.2 shots at goal/5.6 score involvements/5.6 marks (1.6 on lead) is solid season for a KPF - likely dead on where a second key forward would sit.

It does make the Curtin situation a bit more interesting if we're willing to commit to him as a forward (and we should be willing to commit to him as a forward for the near-future) however Dan probably has the talent to make it work.

 

[skittlebrew]

Our club on the back foot yet again. Other clubs have made moves while we sit on our hands.

We operate in the shadows a bit.

But we're terrible at getting deals done, that's the issue.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Strachan is contracted until end of 2025, I don't see us paying him out

Just on this - Hamill was contracted until 24 when we delisted and re-rookied him last year. Same with McPherson the year before, was contracted until 23

I’m not sure the pay-out applies in this scenario
