List Mgmt. 2024 Trade & List Management Thread - Part 3

[giantroo]

Spoiler: 2024 Draft Picks

 

[Waynesworld]

Dont think Richmond would be keen on your F1
we would be looking to sell off #23 & #24 for F1's and take the rest probably 5-6 selections depending on how the cards fall

Mate what are you still doing here? F off and stop clogging up our thread

 

[Rod Stroker]

the stat is less impressive given his kicks are normally 20 meters

 

[Zondor]

It's more the list balance. That was a good chance to add Gerreyn/Faull/Sims as a key forward or Matt Whitlock as a key defender or small forward like Hannaford.

Set Bear straight Chubs. :stern look

 

[roos_fanatic08]

As was mentioned in the members Q and A we want to get back to playing the attacking brand that we tried at the start of the year. Through the corridor. Daniel is that guy to bite off the 45 degree kick to get it into the corridor from defence. He’s going to have a very big part in what we are going to do next year. We can’t have another year of LMac or Fisher trying to bite that kick off.

If we play that way, he’ll also be a big reason why we get stacks of goals kicked against us because he can’t defend for shit.

 

[Samsquanch]

Guess what?..

Next year we have a second and third!.. but wait there's more!..

For all the DPJ's (Draft Pick Junkies) on this board we have a 1st rounder too!!!!

Get around Brady - the KING!

You mean....




....this sh!t happens again next year?


FFS Shermie. Why??? You've pissed me off now by telling me that.

 

[AnEmptyChair]

3 of our biggest holes are leadership, experience and delivery out of the backline. Number crunching aside these trades make us better yes?

Yeah with these additions we're absolutely a much much much better side in 2025 than we were in 2024. Only an absolute moron would argue otherwise

 

[Samsquanch]

No, it's Nostra's fault.

I could have predicted somebody would say that.

 

[Jeremy Jordan]

the stat is less impressive given his kicks are normally 20 meters

Yeah agree. Much rather 40 metre kicks that don’t hit the target like we currently get

 

[Danni_Benson]

One thing about getting Daniel is finally having someone in our backline I won’t have to worry about the ball being in their hands

Hopefully ‘hit a f$&ing target’ is eliminated from my vocabulary next year!

 

[the big lebowski]

Dont have to split pick 2.

Can swap with Richmond with our first rounder next year.

No way they take all of their picks this draft, they will want to spread it out.

Exactly this

We have options.

 

[speedy]

For the short term. They won’t be around for the premiership assault. Doesn’t matter though, there won’t be an assault on the premiership.

 

[Boosty]

Depends on how you spin it, but we are crying out for experienced players to lead this team. Both will play crucial roles, including much needed leadership.
Parker will provide the mature body in the middle/forward and Daniel offers elite decision making and skills (which is exactly what we need).
Letting pick 25 go, I’m assuming they intend to split pick 2 for 2 players in the top 12-15.
I think this is a really positive move for North.

 

[B4Bear]

It's more the list balance. That was a good chance to add Gerreyn/Faull/Sims as a key forward or Matt Whitlock as a key defender or small forward like Hannaford.

In the draft?

Great, just what we need more kids getting fed into the meat grinder of a club with low on-field standards and leadership.

 

[DuckYeah]

I dont mind it, just feel we paid a little too much. Should have come back with two picks in the 40’s

 

[DANMAN]

Way too much whingeing on here. But I accept that. It's Bigfooty. Par for the course.

Clarko said we needed experience, so we bring in three premiership players. can't argue with that.

Some waned pick 48 back with CD when we gave up 25. Which bona fide champion player would we have drafted with pick 48??

Some wanted to give up our F2 rather than 25, without realising that F2 would have BEEN 25 in or thereabouts in 2025. Somehow in some people's minds F2 is pretty much a throwaway but 25 is valuable. Come on guys.

We needed experience, not more speculative young players. We have tons of those. We got experience. It was a good result. Be happy. We still have pick 2 as well.

Absolutely spot on

 

[LeFtBehinD]

Our rebound game sucked because we don't have any forwards who know how to lead.

They lead, we just kick it 10m over their head, or to their direct opponent.

Won’t take long for people to see the value in having someone who can kick to the advantage of a teammate.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Daniel hits targets.

Short, lateral nothing kicks.

We have six others on the list to do that already.

Good stuff Brady.

Don't let the facts get in the way of a pre-loaded whinge. Have a look at this:

https://x.com/CalebDanielKick

Some short kicks, some long, very few lateral, left or right equally accurate.

 

[Shermanator]

FFS Shermie. Why??? You've pissed me off now by telling me that.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Look people are allowed to have negative opinions on trades this club makes. We heard the same stuff when people called the CCJ trade a poor one, and every time this club has made a blue. We will make more mistakes as time goes on, that's just the game, and it's okay to put your opinion out there when you think one has been made.

I pray this doesn't turn out to be one, but IMO at this point in time, it is.

CCJ areas.

 

[shinboner magic]

Gave you
Xerri signing for 4
Parker committing
Konsta early
And Ldu will sign but still can’t convince you all!

That’s me for 24 see you next year.

Lmac retirement would be handy

 

[Shinboner roo]

I was a big fan of splitting the two, but that was just to get capital for Houston.

Now I hope we keep it. Get the best player possible.

Run with Larkey, Comben and Darling as talls in the forward line.

We ain't taking only pick 2 and as it stands now our other pick in the 60's to the draft. We are 100% splitting it now, our only hope is our ff nets us something decent in return and we can keep 2

 

[Topparoo]

Just thinking of LMac’s kicking makes me feel sick in the stomach!

Demoralizing for the team each and every time he misses a target!!

Caleb is a welcome inclusion!!

100% with you. I am wrapped to have him on board

 

[AnEmptyChair]

Honestly the worst part about this trade isn't pick 25

It's how many people will consistently get his name wrong and call him ****ing Daniels on here

 

[The Nostradamus]

i much rather have traded a future 2nd over 25

you take the similar pick 12 months in advance every time

and even the future 2nd was overs but at least not as bad

 

[Waynesworld]

yeah but how much better if it were a f3 and 44 given

and at 25 we pick a KPF like Gerryen

Yep but it wasn’t, and probably was never going to happen.

You know, if my auntie had balls she’d be my uncle kind of thing?

So Clarko wanted an experienced half back, and he wanted someone to step in now rather than risking a long term draft pick.
