List Mgmt. 2024 Trade Thread - No.2

Cole won’t be coming in.

Opinion or source?

 

[Sarcoidevo]

Lalor great player, but he gives me Freeman vibes. Poor kid has been struggling with a hammy injury this year.

He has had a few concerning injuries ... can't seem to get his body right across a few areas ... hip issue and now a bad hammy

That might change when he gets better injury care/rehab at an AFL club

 

[Verdun]

Reckon trade period should be 4-5 days max.....to much posturing with nothing getting done.

Its fine, the issue is really the AFL trying to turn it into what its not. Entertainment.

Many of us want that though and enjoy it

I agree with the above poster . They make it go 10 days only for half the deals to get done in the last hour . It could easily go 4-5 days and they’d have the same results but less days where not much happens

Dunno about that - only one day in and we've already added Pick 9 to our draft choices. Another few days of this and we'll have the entire Top 10 picks.

And this shite goes on till tomorrow week - fmd!!!

Cole won’t be coming in.

I find that hard to believe given his comments and all we have to do is match any bid and find the points. It’s possible but unlikely someone calls his name so early we don’t match.

 

[Banger9798]

I'm looking forward to seeing McLobster in our centre square bounces next to Pou and Windhager.
He is a gun. Hopefully this deal doesn't drag out until stumps.

We've also cleared a spot on the list for a developing key back so passing on him wouldn't make a lot of sense.

 

[gringo2011]

SOS seemed so confident in Stocker back then, I wonder what went wrong with the player

Hopefully we can bring the best out of him as a full time mid, looked solid when he was in there for us but still probably lacks the tank. Dual-sided and good overhead could set him apart from other mids if he starts to find his way

He's a GOP. Nothing wrong with that. His kicking is a bit average, he's a bit slow and a bit one dimensional. Plenty of premiership sides have had a few Stockers in them. He just has to make sure his work rate is better than his peers.Think he plays HB from here. He looked fine as a defensive mid but those spots could go to a kid.

 

[Barrels]

Sam Power is renowned for being a proper campaigner.

Not much has changed the u12s then.

Was then, too.

 

[gringo2011]

O’Sullivan is the one I’m watching. If he was to fall in our lap that would be amazing.
Saw him in the prelim, absolute gun. Nearly won them the game. Took some really big marks and when they need it. Covers the ground well. Super tank, and has some jets on him when he needed it!

His under 17s year looked like he was going to be the best player in the draft by a margin. His 2024 has been disappointing but on talent he's hard to look past. I'm not a fan of guys who get injured so often, it tends to follow them through their footy but if he slid he'd be hard to walk past. I reckon he's that kind of Wardlaw type if he does fall to us. A guy who should play midfield pretty early and could end up an absolute star.

Was a shit bloke in the u12s is about to become the new “doesn’t make his bed every morning” I think.

This Houston situation is exactly why the argument that 'Salary cap space is your compenstion' for losing a FA is nonsense.

I know he's not a free agent but North can offer the best deal to Port and can pay Houston the most but he's not seriously considering them while Carlton and Collingwood fight over him. The 'big club' power will always top salary cap space at a small club. And I know North being down the bottom doesn't help but part of the reason they have been down for so long is no decent player is picking money over the big club expereince.

The compensation pick is necessary to make sure the smaller clubs have something in the FA exchange instead of just picked off each year with no way to replace their players.

While player salaries stay in the ballpark they are now, this is all true.

There is an amount that could get Dan Houston to North Melbourne. North Melbourne just cannot currently pay it. The reason why players in US leagues move to poor teams is oodles of cash. Differences of millions of dollars - funnily enough what the difference between the offers for Gary Ablett and Tom Scully were over a decade ago.

None of us know what's going on behind the scenes.

I always find the "trade period is too long" commentary amusing. We have the shortest player movement period of any comparable competition.

They need to win games it’s that simple. If they have another shocker then LDU will be gone and who could blame him, what’s that look like 130 odd games 26 years of age and something absurd like less than 30 wins.

Looks like we'll be giving up 7 & 8 for Macrae and Soldo then.

I kid you not.

Someone on the dogs board proposed 8+43 for the Mutts F1 + Macrae

 

[Jade Buddha]

Just tell dogs they can keep Macrae on their books, simple.
Don’t need Ivan either. 2024 = draft.

Exactly don’t muck around just tell them straight this is what’s on the table he’s contracted and we’re not moving so make up your mind because we’ll move on. If we’re actually paying with a decent pick then there are better players available imo.
