List Mgmt. 2025 Trade/FA Thread

Of course they are. Are the Cats full?

I guess they have the mitchell connection and Barass being there.

 

[soreplums]

Allen would be huge for us

If Hawks get all of Barrass, Battle and Allen in 2 years..

He would be. I just can’t get my head around the stories of his degenerative knee though.

I guess it would all depend on what we pay him.

Pity Cameron's strong friendship with Barass didn't help us

 

[Jen2310]

No unfortunately not. They are good mates.
Though not sure how much we were in that conversation I don't recall us heavily mentioned. We were talked about in the battle conversation though

 

[nickyds35]

I dont think we wanted him

Yeah & after watching Battle last week, he's the one that would be really handy right about now.

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

Typical clickbait media.

Of course he is staying, of course there’s plenty to work through still. It’s all just to get Maynard what he wants from the club.

I think the club is juggling a fair bit with contract extensions ATM and I don’t expect this to get done until after Cameron, Bobby etc. Trust the media to spin that like he is leaving though!

Bruzzy was never going anywhere. The reported contract details from North were of course exaggerated. The Pies will offer Bruzzy a 3 year deal, with an option for a 4th, around $800k-$850k...

 

[Forethought]

To change the discussion a bit, what’s anyone’s thoughts on targeting these OOC player + Mitch Lewis a pre free agent ?

Windhager : from the saints.
Schoenmaker : Saints
Hobbs : Bombers
Calum Brown GWS
Leek Aleer :
Mitch Lewis : Hawks pre agent : not likely needed if they get Allen
Jacob Blight Tigers
Tom Brown : Tigers.

None of these are headline acts but a few would slot into our needs with our current list . Don’t have to sell the farm for any of these probably other than Leek

Leek would certainly fill a need

 

[Scodog10]

Time for Ollie Henry payback. Mitch Knevitt out of contract at Geelong this year. Time to bring him back to Melbourne

Liked him in his draft year given his athletic profile. He’s one id get behind if it’s at all possible.

Yes
No
No no no no no
Maybe
Yes
Maybe
Yes
Yes

Aleer is the only one definitely worth pursuing, IMO, because the other yes’ we won’t be able to shake loose.

I think there’s some recency bias with Brown in that he seems to start seasons well then run out of puff. It then looks like he saves his best for us and I’m not convinced he moves the dial much. Lewis falls into the right place right time category so I wouldn’t be making a move on him unless he falls into our lap. Schoenmaker you’re chasing at this stage on the back of one asset and I don’t think that’s enough. Hobbs is water trash and will be out of the system post 2025.

 

[stormskye]

Hawks front runners for Allen if he leaves according to fox sports.

Totally fine with me. I don’t think he’s worth the trade/$. Injury riddled history I think we can do better

 

[Gabbo64]

Zac Merrett..?

Yep Zac

 

[Gabbo64]

Looking likely those two will stay at their clubs.
I'm not convinced Allen does enough as a forward we would require, but we'll see.

Anyone think our Ed Allen could be moulded into KPF??

 

[Gabbo64]

Leek would certainly fill a need

Not if the bucket had a hole in it.

 

[Jen2310]

Anyone think our Ed Allen could be moulded into KPF??

Tall enough, but seems to be a natural big bodied mid. But would be nice if he can put some forward craft in his game so he can be a bit versatile

 

[Apex36]

Anyone think our Ed Allen could be moulded into KPF??

No

 

[TradeDraft]

Everyone seems to go to the Hawks these Days as well as Geelong

Allen won't leave anyway

 

[sr36]

I don't think I've seen him contest a mark.

 

[Pistol Night]

Time for Ollie Henry payback. Mitch Knevitt out of contract at Geelong this year. Time to bring him back to Melbourne

The ultimate payback would be drafting his Mum

 

[Scodog10]

Yep Zac

You know his brothers name is Jackson so you could have almost got away with a smart arse answer there!

We got some bloke called Houston last off season TD

 

[Scodog10]

I don't think I've seen him contest a mark.

Is he on contested mark watch alongside Nick if he makes it? I’m not sure what Gorringe was smoking earlier this week, but there’s no chance Nick takes one before Reid gets 30 in a match.

Any excuse to bring up Nick not taking a contested mark. I think the average for a whole team in a game is about 7-8 isn't it?
