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

[The Nostradamus]

Owies vs Konstanty is hard to split for mine

Konstanty a top 20 pick who was a gun junior big upside and only 19 vs Owies 27 who will impact and can hit the scoreboard but has limitations to his game, and less upside

a future 3rd for either

 

[DocSholl]

We should get down there then.

Not like we've ever found a gun from that pathway before

280k live on the bellarine now.
The Vic government plans on that being 2m by 2050.
Geelong will have 20% of Melbourne to themselves if we don't.

 

[Passmore]

Blues have an offer for Owies according to the Blues board:



As posted before from a SEN texter, we have supposedly offered 3 years.

Not THE SEN texter?

I miss him

Isn't Balta a free agent next year? Just buy him for $$$ then.

But Caro would reckon we ought to give up a pick and we would, like the CCJ situation.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

Has that been confirmed somewhere? We hear that around but havent seen anything official.

Didn’t Gold Coast go down more the established player route than GWS and were worse anywhere, or is my memory cooked?

I recall Dillon mentioning it, Sam Landsberger was pushing it and he rarely ran with wrong AFL business info.

I think both teams focused on having as much maturity as possible and were allowed to take one uncontracted player from each team (not to mention the ambassador roles of Karmichael Hunt and Israel Folau). GWS seemed to be happier to hit the draft though.

 

[FlyHigh18]

Because they draft mature agers and keep the general age of the team around 26/27

They’ve only got about 3 or 4 players under 26 playing this weekend don’t they?

An Anti Aircraft gun no less!

 

[kool kangas]

I don't mind it.
He's decent and if he came cheap he would improve us

3 Years plus a trigger for a 4th is fine by me.

More to come?

Yes.

 

[DocSholl]

Humphries, Holmes, Bruhn, Mullin, Dempsey, Stengle, Ollie Henry, Neale and Miers are all under 26.

Close, Guthrie and Jack Henry all turned 26 in the last couple of months.

They're not actually that old, their veterans just seem to play forever,

AA full back and elite intercept defender. Gun.

Tarrant
Thompson
Grima

"Neville which key defensive spot did you fix in the draft?"

Neville "yes"

 

[The Y Factor]

Very wary of teams supposedly in the window casting aside Best 22 options…

Me too, Owies, DeKoning?

You have to at least ask why? It could be sheer depth and that’s fine but it’s a glad to look at

 

[Blightys Barrel]

I thought we signed Biggie on a 2 year deal? Looks like it was just 1?

Maybe he was 6 games short of a trigger clause, or another way to look at it 10 games off being an AFL role player.

I wonder if Sellers was taken by Geelong and had 18 months in their system to see if he would be any better a player? His baptism of fire was like lambs to the slaughter for his 2 game career with us.

So they have more over 30 year olds than under 26s playing this weekend.

Yes, they have a balanced list because they tend to cover all bases with their recruiting

I think both GWS and GC recruited a similar amount of mature players. GC targeted players between 25 and 30 with players like Ablett, Boch, Harbrow, etc. Where as GWS went after younger types like Ward, Davis, Scully, etc and then added some experience with older types like McDonald, Cornes, Brogan and Power.

Sellers deserved more games

Their veterans play for a long time and then get replaced without anyone noticing.

They’re a lot younger than what they were a couple of years ago when they won it. Geelong hitting a wall is a myth.

Jesus that’s grim

it was important to waste them on pink instead which then stupidly triggered a contract
