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.

 

[Daniltchenko You Beauty]

Apparently he’s suffered from injury issues this year resulting in him not being fit enough to play in their side for finals. Not sure it’s a question on his quality.

Fair enough. Can't say I've watched him especially closely but his 1v1 and intercept marking numbers have been awful the last two seasons. Were ok in 2022 when he finished ninth in their B&F.

Someone needs to remind them that all the people expecting to nominate North are outside of their own best 22s! Quit the gaslighting

Sell me that s*** when Finn Callaghan nominates North

Is he going to use his mind control leadership skills to win the ball?

LDU is already one of the best contested ball winners in the competition, is turning 26 next season, he doesn't need Parker there to babysit him.

Sheezel is statistically one of the best young players in history, I think he knows how to play the game.

Yes George can learn some things from Luke, when he's in there a couple of times a game and the hundreds of hours he spends with him outside of matchday.

Parkers not going to be in the side when we are contending and parking players on the bench or McKercher on a bank flank is not going to help this side, in fact it it be to it's detriment.

Craig Bellamy said it best a few weeks ago when I heard him talk about Dustin Martin "Leadership is very simple, it's being a good player and a better player than your team mates. Cam Smith was a great leader because he was a great trainer with high standards, he barely spoke when he was on the field. His leadership was 99% Monday to Thursday." It was an answer regarding his opinion on recruiting the equivalent of Dustin Martin in the NRL.

Parker can play the Shiels role imo.

Strong points but I disagree. Just watch the mic'd up clips for Parker and Simpkin and you'll see the stark contrast. Parker is directing traffic, constantly vocal and respected. A season of Parker in the guts will hopefully help LDU/Simpkin find their voice and actually direct the crew effectively. It will also help Sheezel but probably more important for the former two who would have never seen anything like it in their careers. Everyone talks about how LDU doesn't have leadership ambitions - he's never been given the chance to understand what that looks like from someone who can do it.

Collectively we could be the Biggie Smalls.

Except we just delisted him.

Why the **** would prospective players give a shit that the staff develop?

 

[BrownPaperBag]

They didn't really, was just good marketing hype!!

D120s were a Gamechanger

I rate what you say here Psicosis and one of the reasons why I catch up here on what’s going on at our club, but please get a little more excited with what we’re building for success.

Lolled when he told that hawthorn player that he had a hard head .... he's playing footy for fun this bloke. Obviously more enjoyable when you win a few - streets ahead of our 2 captains.

 

[DocSholl]

Sphynx loves adding a year to all suggested additions unless he's suggesting them.

Then he takes a year off them lol

Little trade secret that Clarko taught him

 

[BrownPaperBag]

That was my point I guess. It’s up to you to make an offer, if not everyone walks away which I’m happy with.

pick 2 is way overs sure try it on but it’s pretty clear north won’t do that. Whilst yeah the guy is contracted usually when a trade is requested they end up going or you are stuck with a player who potentially doesn’t want to be there. In no world is pick 2 a reasonable price for a back flanker I’m not trying to sound harsh (although I can see how it may seem that way) I just think pick 2 should get an absolute match winning kpd or mid. I probably think a range of pick 10 sounds the high end of fair but that’s my opinion.

I’d be miffed if we threw pick 2 for him

Don’t worry the only way pick 2 is involved is if we split it

 

[DuckYeah]

Wondering how good he could be in a gun side is purely hypothetical and therefore redundant really, in reality the top teams have better small forwards - Papley, Cameron, Green, Bolton, Miers, Elliott, Rankine, Bailey which he would be behind.

He plays small and tall. His crumbing work and front and square work is incredibly good. Come on wayno, you’re being a bit silly

 

[DuckYeah]

TDK does amazing things .......... to my system

Whenever I hear TDK, I remember dubbing VHS on blank TDK’s.

 

[BrownPaperBag]

Yeah I think the same. Not having a go at the guy but this posturing stuff gets tiresome

Mixtapes

 

[North Viking]

Off to Carlton.

 

[Samsquanch]

Current Geelong side up there with mid-90s Richmond who had a spate of undercut bowl head things as "worst haircut side in AFL history outside of South Australia'

FIFY

 

[shinboner magic]

Off to Carlton.

The old recruit shit brother to keep star brother rule

 

[Samsquanch]

I reckon I've got half a box unused TDK cassettes and a handful of the video tapes as well. Might've fallen off the back of a truck in North West London ....

Type II Super Avilyn?

 

[DrZaius]

I’d probably take the F1.

Which is precisely why it is not in our best interests to do that

 

[My Left Foote]

Nice Dead Kennedys handle you got there.

North's list management crew did a Q&A last night where they made it clear that:
1) they were intending to hit the "pointy end" of this year's draft, and
2) they were prepared to use our F1 on "the right experienced player"

They also said they were open to using our F1 to get another pick in this draft.

 

[GS WARRIORS]

Cats - Oliver, Smith
Dogs - Pick 5
Dees - Happy Trac
AFL - Delighted

[archereleven]

So going to the club you barracked for as a kid is a thing... unless it's North Melbourne?

Good to see Collingwood's fluid cap on show.

I've heard Pendles is now paying the club instead of the other way around allowing the Perryman trade...
