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

[Kangaroos4eva]

The melts have begun and we still have weeks before the trade season starts. Love it!

Bring this one out every trade season.

 

[DuckYeah]

Big call still reckon he will be better than caddy at the moment probably a premiership player

Caddy would look pretty good at Brisbane too

 

[DuckYeah]

Brisbane took 158 marks in a grand final and Zorko went at 96%.

Watching the Brisbane spread live today was amazing when they win the ball at half back. They can kick.

That Zorko is a piece of shit.. But when he retires it will leave a massive gaping hole in that team.

 

[Val Keating]

That says a lot...

Our best F/S was Jesse Smith.

is playing for us next year. Lock it in. Watched him straight after the siren today. Rampe went straight to him and they both acted like two blokes who knew they'd never play together again.

 

[Val Keating]

Did today's result improve or decrease our chances of getting Parker?

Increase. They’re not playing him in his optimal position

They have Keidean Coleman coming back from an ACL next season, was arguably Brisbane's best in last years GF.

 

[King Corey]

Best ever father-son Luke McDonald?! Huh?

Brett Allison.
Mick Martyn.

Not even a contest after those 2 for career output.

You probably feel about Zorko what every other club felt about Boomer

Yeh but that Zoidberg campaigner has arguably the best kick 30+m in the game.. pains me to say it but so often his kicking and decision making is the reason the lions move from half back so well.

 

[Colby Cheer Squad]

Our best father son ever has been Lmac

Our best father-son all-time would be Mick Martyn.

 

[archereleven]

So why are people happy to trade back from a strong position for a 28 year old half back flanker and some cast offs?

We aren't linked to a 28 year old back flanker...

Untrue. Jesse Smith was better.

 

[archereleven]

That’s rubbish. We would be furious if we had to pay up overs to secure a good father son.

Like pick 8?

We won’t be playing against the Lions by the time we get back up there so whoopee ****ing doo wat f/sons they get

Teams were saying that about Geelong in 2007, then came 2008, then 2009, then 2011, then 2020, then 2022...

Here’s hoping.

If Sydney had won I’d say lock it in. But after losing so badly they may want him to stick around longer.

Nup. It was obvious that Parker felt he was done. He was only on the fringes this year and they need to refresh. Rampe turns 35 next year and is part of their Grand Final failures. He's cooked more than Parker.

Those years didn’t just happen…Finals in 2004 and 2005 and then 10 odd wins in 2006….

We are coming from a long way back

 

[Midas]

Why would he stay? He is not a premiership player next year.

But he can set a foundation somewhere else.

 

[Gasometer]

Parker is coming for extrinsic or intrinsic or both?

I think we really need to be clear on this Board as to what his role is because if it unravels so will come the inevitable damnation that falls his way in his player thread because he didn’t deliver culture change

 

[Blightys Barrel]

He knows he ain't winning one with Sydneys.

He wants to come to a coach with a better GF winning % than Horse who is now running at 20%. Clarko is 4/5 at 80%

 

[TurnoverMerchant]

But he never did because he never played in a GF! But thanks to Parker and their other leaders Parker actually did!!

Anyone who doesn’t want Parker has rocks in their head when you look at our leaders lol! Our leader is a 19 year old! He deserves a Parker!

Some people cannot be convinced. The North fans with brains understand that we aren’t getting the superstar version of Parker as he is most definitely past his best. However, we NEED his guidance because it actually means something coming from a premiership player and someone who has been involved in a successful culture.

 

[iloveireland]

HB is probably the most important position.
They generally take kickouts, command the ball in the backline and start the transition towards goal.
They also have the vision to push players around to needed spots of field and help lockdown the ball in opposition forward 50.

Then why did we move Sheezel to midfield? We could have left him there?
