[YeoShuey]

Port give Houston get:luko richards and 34

Collingwood give richards and noble get Carlton F1

Carlton give F1 and F2, 34 get Houston

GC give Luko get Carlton F2 and noble

Win win for everyone imo thoughts?

You’re dreaming if you think Collingwood give up those 2 for an F1

The only thing that's ever concerned me about Kennedy is his low TOG %. Would love if he had a good tank.

he had an exceptional tank in his draft testing.... 15.2 beep or the like...

not sure why he'd be any worse in 2024?

 

[4flagsin5yrs]

I think Voss and the coaches figured out if they gave Kennedy less minutes on the ground he was more explosive and did better when on the ground - sure it would be nice if he needed less time off the ground but it is what it is and we managed it well and got the best out of him (and didn’t sacrifice much as we have some who can run all day)

how about they give the guy a few full games in his best spot and see how he goes...

might be surprised!

 

[Red Bull]

I disagree. Otherwise teams will just keep going back to the well to rort the system. I think PA need our F1 to play with GCS. COL can’t give them one. I think we get Houston.

Take it up with Twomey/AFL …

Luko is worth more than Carlton F2 and Noble I reckon lad..

Wright to officially be announced as CEO according to Sam Edmund. That Bluemour was completely spot on

Hope he’s given Carte Blanche to clean house in the Football Dept first.

So what happened to have low TOG%?

14.12 which was top 10 but they dropped the beep because they didn't think it had value (Weiters ran a 15.1). Was not top 10 for the 3km which they ran instead of 2km back in 2015

 

[GoBlues!]

As I was told and posted earlier Owies Manager confirmed this morning that he has NOT been offered a contract.

I really don't believe he will be at Carlton next year no matter what happens

If that’s the case Soapy, let’s hope we have someone else who can step up and kicks 33+ goals besides Charlie and Harry.

3.13 for the 20m too.

Combination of SoS/Kemp, Durdin/Motlop, Elijah, Williams/Doc as the main players.
Midfield with Walsh and Cerra fitter will also help.
Scoreboard won't be the issue.

 

[4flagsin5yrs]

Voss.

 

[SurreyBlue]

Just feels (W)right having Klark Kent delivering breaking news...

Yep Superman knows things.

 

[BringFevBack2021]

So what happened to have low TOG%?

He’s a big lad, look at the quads on him

I reckon he does have trouble covering the ground for the full four quarters, more of an anaerobic beast with short explosive efforts

Very, very good in one on one marking contests, appears to be way stronger than his opponents around the same height and weight - so probably just not really built to run 14km at a reasonable intensity

 

[Magruder]

Port give Houston get:luko richards and 34

Collingwood give richards and noble get Carlton F1

Carlton give F1 and F2, 34 get Houston

GC give Luko get Carlton F2 and noble

Win win for everyone imo thoughts?

**** no…

It might not be his endurance nessecarily that's an issue. He might just play better rotating on and off, where he can go at 100% then have a rest. His style of play would be quite fatiguing. Also helps with his lack of pace as he spend kore time running at top speed, if he gets consistent breaks.

We keep our F2 - Filth add theirs to the pool and it ends up with GCS.

 

[Leeway]

95% Collingwood, 5% Port

I'm not sure why people.dont listen to Austin

Houston hasn't nominated us, as he isn't our priority, the draft is.

We won't give away the farm to get pick 13, in fact our F1 and F2 is way over already.

Don't get sucked in by media talk, it always sounds definitive but never is, and always leaves openings to backflip on statements.
I'm still of the belief we need to start bringing high end talent in again through the draft, but if there is a way to bring in an established A grade talent while maintaining a presence in the first round, you take it every time.
Also, at some point in time the club needs to gamble on themselves, pick 13 in this draft is probably a pick 8 next year. Our F1 (15-18) & F2 (33-36) in a weak draft is a steal for us in my opinion. That is before NGAs and FSons are factored in.

I wonder if KK's football nous has improved as much as his information

Mega Thread - Trade Targets 2014

I wonder where Rogers rated Doc in 2011? Top 5 for sure. Also rated Nick Graham top 5. Also rates Leroy Jetta in the top 5 Jettas that have played AFL. Could be worth a look?

[Blue and Silver]

I don't think the choice is Houston or a first.

Clearly the plan is to do both if possible. Pick 12 and Houston. Plus Campos.

We can buy back into the draft next year with future picks if necessary

we moved LOB on...still in contract.

And he gave the Blues far more than Orazio ever has!!

Just means Orazio likely gets cut next year. If we were to cut Fantasia a year early, we still have to pay him next year in addition to whatever salary we'd end up paying Owies. And Owies could knock back a 1 year deal with us to take a 2 year deal elsewhere, leaving us with neither player. Or we sign Owies on 2 years ourselves and we no longer have the easy delist option next year.

On top of that....if we need another list spot, there's still every chance Fantasia ends up getting the boot before the final list lodgements this year.

I reckon Owies wanted/wants a few years and a bit of extra money. We don't want to offer that, so we've played the market. He shops around, if he gets a decent offer elsewhere we cash him in for a middling pick. If he doesn't, then he probably comes back hat in hand and we have the choice to offer him 1 year on bugger all, or cut him if we've found better options via trade/free agency.

 

[HereComesJuddy]

Not from your plan pal, that's for sure.

Well you’ve been saying we need one. Let’s see how you go

 

[koutashoulda1_1]

So am I. It's always exciting when a player the club doesn't rate, the other defenders don't rate, and the coach in particular doesn't rate, then gets totally unrated by every other club in the comp.

I'm personally very excited about watching him bumble around next year as our second best key defender. Exciting times indeed and my current highlight of the trade period.

Facemelting levels of sarcasm. Made me spit my morning coffee hahaha

You’re dreaming if you think Collingwood give up those 2 for an F1

Why Richards is out of contract and played 8 games, he is not worth much at all .noble himself is no where near worth a pick 12-15 (where we will finish next year) that is a great outcome for Collingwood
