List Mgmt. COLLINGWOOD Trade and F/A Discussion 2023

[manicpie]

there's no gear between 1st and 5th with him.

He shoots from the hip and attacks like a junkyard dog but that's just him. We've all be there

 

[The Royal Sampler]

As soon as I saw Lycett available I thought we’d maybe go for him as injury cover so we don’t have the same issue as this year with no fit rucks.

What’s the opportunity cost on that though? Would rather play Bilbo Frampton in ruck if it came to that again rather than waste a list spot. Unless of course we’re expecting Frampton to be a defensive auto-selection.

He's alright Apex, we all do it, I mean, this year I have dug my claws in to Ashton Moir and last year it was Keeler. both look like busts but I can't help liking their natural talent

I'm hearing Keeler recently finished his time trial - so there's still hope there.

I think they would prefer to play Frampton purely as a defender if they had that luxury. Craig Kelly said it won't be unusual to recruit players for only 2 years in these times. Not sure what the plan is for Lycett but they must have a good reason

… or just inconsequential garage like 99% of us.

Harsh. Even Nirvana started as a garage band.

 

[Soups]

The smok is good value, some of his posts are a bit long but it helps pass the day

Don’t you do something else for that

 

[Pistol Night]

Called ”Pen Cap Chew”. Was wise to change it to “Nirvana”

 

[Fruit]

Has Ash Johnson had interrupted pre-seasons with us so far? From memory I think he has so this is a good opportunity for him to start 2024 in ripping condition.

Not only that but removed all the corny references to pens and writing implements in their songs.

“Load up on pens and bring your friends” sounded like a rhymey call to get ready for the school year.

“And I swear that I don’t have a pen” was like a disclaimer for would-be autograph hunters.

“Underneath the bridge, the pen has sprung a leak” just failed to capture the essence of hopelessness they were after.

Very wise career move.

 

[KinderSmock]

They have Petty, who they would have traded this year if they weren’t confident they could retain him, and Jefferson who they’ve heavily invested in who will likely start to get games next year. In addition to that there will likely be other forward options available for them next year too, I’m expecting them to go hard for a genuine number 1 KPF.
Since when is Reef ahead? This is another thing your brain has conjured up. Possession is 9/10ths of the law, and as it stands, AJ would have been a premiership player if he wasn’t injured, while Reef was overlooked in favour of Billy Frampton. You’re talking about a kid who played 5 games vs AJ’s 15 this year.
Why is AJ not likely to see much action? You act like he’s incapable of pulling his finger out this preseason, and that injuries aren’t a thing.
Lastly, and I think it’s been pointed out already, Melbourne needed forwards this year, he’d have been aware that they were chasing his brother so he knew the status quo with them, yet he re-signed with us anyway. Doesn’t indicate a burning desire from either party to me.

If you don’t want to get roasted stop jumping to conclusions and then post them like they’re fait accompli. It’s just a dumb thing to do.

I think Petty will want out of Melbourne by next year. That club looks set to collapse at any given time.

Reef is ahead based on his final few VFL games. He’s someone that looks ready to play at the highest level.

Melbourne will still need forwards next year, particularly if Sniffy cops a ban. The doping authorities are not known for timeliness (evidenced by Murray, Rioli, etc).

Reef was ahead of AJ based on last season’s pre season as well and look how that turned out.

 

[KinderSmock]

I honestly thought Kinder was the account of Taking The Pies split personality.

I’m stunned here. I didn’t think I’d provided that many inside “scoops”.

 

[manicpie]

Don’t you do something else for that

No mate, it's just my BF Monica but I do go fishing a lot

WA wingman, injured former Giant among latest Suns cuts

Gold Coast has continued to reshape its list under new coach Damien Hardwick

Jeremy Sharp had a great year in the VFL. He’s someone we should look at picking up as a DFA.

 

[jimmy35]

I don't know how a guy who gets 5 games in 5 years makes the news.

For his consistency.

 

[Mollythedolly]

Who cares about subscription length.
Kindersmocks heart is in the right place.
His opinion as interesting as anyone here.

Apex didn’t raise it, he responded to a post that did. Interestingly or ironically it was a post from whiskeytown (member since 2014) taking a poster who has been a member since 2011 to task for ridiculing “older members”, but KinderSmock whose post he quoted is only a recent joiner.

As for Kindersmock, I’m not a fan of posters who post every bit of crap they find on the socials and draw ridiculous conclusions based on that. All the while posting as some self anointed guru and claiming what little glory comes from it. But to each their own.

 

[whiskeytown]

Was just responding to WT who thought that new posters aren’t allowed to criticise, which is nonsense in itself.

90% of your posts are criticism and pot shots

So when I talk about being kind to other people’s opinions… It’s clearly above your station

Not sure we need another wingman anyway - we have more pressing needs.

 

[manicpie]

I'm hearing Keeler recently finished his time trial - so there's still hope there.

I may have missed calculated my talent sums on that way and I might be heading the same way with Moir, lol

Somebody who has had an account since 2011 but only posted 350 times… is not on here as frequently as kindersmock

Agree with it or not… I value kinder smock contribution

Better than the know it all types that smugly spend 90% of their time on here putting others down but rarely take a leap and put forward ideas themselves

You’ve got no idea how frequently he is on BF. Maybe he just doesn’t post because self righteous rsoles incorrectly take him to task. Irony clearly lost on you.

suns fans say the same. Just struggles with the competiveness side of the game.

Projecting draftees is one thing, but declaring where a player will be in 12 months based off almost nothing? There’s literally no evidence that Melbourne even has interest in AJ, let alone it being a lock that he’ll be there next year.

I mean, who at this time last year could have predicted that Ginni would be traded to the poos and wees after winning a flag with us? 12 months is a long time and unless there’s something genuine to go on, like Adelaide’s interest in Petty, it’s best not to act like you’re predictions are guaranteed to materialise in to reality.
