List Mgmt. Brady Rawlings | Head of Football Talent (Recruitment, LM & TPP)

[The Warlord]

There was plenty of speculation about TTs character pre draft, we had him in our zone. We ****ed that up, there's no way we did our due diligence there, he didn't become a scumbag overnight. If you don't think the big clubs aren't putting in the time and resources vetting these kids you're kidding yourself. I've got little doubt we would've got more out of JHF if we weren't a basket case on and off field, don't even really blame him for leaving. Phillips over McDonald or Hollands an absolute killer, this is not one person's fault it's the whole department. Hopefully Todd and Clarko can fix it.

Every club in the comp would have taken Tarryn, every single one. Most of them would sign him tomorrow if they could get away with it too.

 

[The Warlord]

Curtis is a 2nd round pick ya dolt!

Apologies, I had him as a third.

Obviously all other clubs nail every 3rd and 4th round selection they get right.

Right?

 

[The Warlord]

Must be that time of day again.

What time of day?

 

[The_General#1]

Or even just a bf forum member who watched under 18 champs, AIS game and some under 18 games during the year

for instance the following picks would’ve happened if I were in charge

Last year at the time I would’ve drafted Watto, Colby/caddy, schoenmaker, Philactides and Logan Morris with our 5 first rounders

Or from a trade perspective would never have traded our pick 8 (serong or Flanders) for a future first

I’m with u on this although not sure how we would’ve got Caddy.

 

[The_General#1]

The Biggy experiment went well.

No club gets every pick right.

But well run clubs get more right than wrong, even late ones

The Kallan Dawson and Toby Pink experiments did far better

I would argue our problem has been lack of development, not the picks themselves. And lo and behold now we've got a first class development team in, Brady MSD picks like RHJ are really coming along.

I also know for a fact that Brady was seriously hamstrung early in his tenure by the simple reality that we were not seen as a club anyone would move to, for a whole range of reasons, unless the offer was well above market rate

When the list managers left in 2022, it was a bit of a blessing in disguise moment. I heard the club was not in good shape from some inside info. Few players had been not impressed with the footy program. Noble mentioned as being a twat, list management on edge etc.

Ever since the review and new team has come in, it has been a completely different environment. A much better place to be at.

Let's see what happens next year. Only way is up.

 

[The Warlord]

Here you go folks.

 

[The Warlord]

You certainly are having problems working with logic. Perhaps explains it, but I suspect it's greenery other than trees

Better that than being pissed and bitter at life like some, unable to cope in social situations without constantly turning on those around you with endless whinging and sooking.

Agree with a lot of the summary other than 2 points, biggy was a crap trade as well and i dont think the racism stuff is as much as an issue. But agree there has been a chorus of poor management not just recruitment.

For example How Gavin brown drew a wage for 10 years is anyones guess. And luffy dont even need a mention.

tell me what we traded for bigoa nyuon. go. don't look it up

 

[koshari]

I'm saying when you inherit Cam Joyce's list, which then spends years languishing through David Noble's ineptitude, I'm afraid even Sir Alex Ferguson would struggle to make it competitive.

BR's record has been both decent and imperfect. Its impossible to evaluate him fairly without first acknowledging the shit sandwich he was served from the outset.

Its like we litteraly had to start from scratch the list was so bad.

Pick 60?

Fwiw a packet of twisties would have been overs.

close.

I mean sure. But like, did we miss out on anything with that pick?

Sorry mate, been out sea raping so been a bit busy to respond.

 

[koshari]

No we didn't and iam a darn site happier finding out it was only 1 year as initially 2 years was believed to be the term.

Best case?

Bid on Dear (Haw) - matched
Bid on H.Thomas (GWS) - matched
Doubt we take Schoenmaker
L.Humphries was there

So much for the element of surprise. :stern look

 

[King Corey]

Not a bad Q&A.

-Clayton said Draper is a ripper kid, loyal teammate and has already read The North Story 13 times

-Thursfield snorted out loud at comments about key forwards mentioning both Drury and Harvey show great forward craft and if they end up in the 198-202cm range when they finish growing "look out"

-Brady would be open to trading #2 down to a lower pick. When the host queried if he meant "lower pick s", Brady snapped back with "we're professionals employed to do a job".

As luck would have it someone did come to the door, but it was one of my son's dodgy mates.
