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

Feels like this whole draft period we've been trying to bend reality to our draft strategy, instead of the other way around. We know our weaknesses are, but we just don't know how to solve them. Parker and Darling were a tick, but we didn't consider enough what Caleb Daniel

was costing us and we should have definitely walked away.

Same goes for our F1 and pick 2. Our strategy was to trade both out, but our reading of what they would net us was way off, and we waited, waited and then took the last minute offer. Seems like we didn't do enough to get to the Suns, Hawks or Essendon's future picks, and were just hoping would come our way. Richmond had the cards and played us all the way. Again, if the deal wasn't there, we should have walked away.

It's not all Brady's fault. Clarkson especially has talked a lot in the media about our need for a developing tall and experience from other clubs. Our draft strategy was open for the world to see, and with us a rock bottom, we're an easy club to push around.

This could all work out, we have gained some talent, experience and a tall forward. But we have put a hell of a lot of pressure on our tall players picked in the mid-20s (Dawson and Whitlock), and some rapid gains on the field next year.

 

[The Nostradamus]

yep they kept trying to get rid of our f1 for unders

First they tried getting Houston for f1 thankfully at the time that failed

But then it made them more desperate for Daniel to the point where instead of offering a f2 or walking away they piss away a pick 25

Only to realise we need that pick for a KPP so they trade our f1 for it

Amateur hour

This is an entire club decision you peanuts. Anyone who thinks Clarko and Viney aren’t pulling the strings hasn’t got a ****ing clue.

No Shit Sherlock. But make no mistake that this Ironstein has been front and centre with the last 5 years of moronic decisions made by our Football Club in regards to recruitment, trading and list management. :stern look

So it’s obvious it’s a whole club decision but Ironstein has been front and centre?

Righto.

 

[Mr north man]

We should've sacked him when we had the chance and now he lays this shit on us, amazing.

Yes you’re right but when Rawlings MATE Geoff Walsh was doing the review there was no way he was going nowhere.
Got to remember mates don’t get rid of mates and Rawlings knows this and he knows his protected and will continue to do his job with the knowledge his got his job as long as long as he wants it.
