List Mgmt. Our Trade/FA, Suburban & Country Town Thread

[ElliottsMaggies]

Looking like Hobbs might be our only Chance of Brining someone in thru Trade/FA Period

Davis staying a Sun and Peatling staying at GWS or go to Eagles

Some clubs haven't even had their exit meetings yet, some still playing.. anything could happen between now & the trade period.

 

[frizzle]

surely we have to go hard for Houston ..hes a beauty

Sure is. But with what picks?

 

[danielnajdek]

That's why the Schultz trade hurts. We have no first rounder this year and a shitty second rounder from Hawthorn whenever they get knocked out.

4 weeks away now.

Exactly.

With a packet of chips?

 

[HFF]

It appears not having a GM of footy for 12 months has effectively wasted our attempts to bring in players.

I think it’s starting to become even more clear to just hut the draft hard as the options out there seem to be dwindling and not really that appealing

Richards & a packet of chips

 

[danielnajdek]

We are going to get that crab Hobbs as the last available.

 

[South of the Yarra]

Carlton having a big crack at Houston.

Even he is contracted, so they'll ask for our F1 lol

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Carlton having a big crack at Houston.

 

[sr36]

But its in the same state lol Unlike moving down to vic.

It does seem to be a pretty unique gene pool that covers the whole state and stops at the border.

might have to get creative and trade player or players out to get someone whose very good in

 

[unplugged]

Carlton having a big crack at Houston.

He'd be a good fit for them with Zac Williams barely able to stay on the park. And they have their two first rounders to piss away (without checking Lore's spreadsheet to confirm). Surely need to shed a player or two though.

Last 12 Month been a Disaster Off-Field for the Club

 

[Jasper84]

Would have caused us a little pain in terms of trade capita but I'd have insisted on a F1 or he goes to draft


Don't care, Manic.
It's optics and defines our future trading

It didn't help Port's future trading when they let Stevens walk. Didn't help St Kilda when they let Ball walk. Definitely didn't help GC when they let Martin walk. In fact I can't think of one instance where letting an un-contracted player walk has benefited the club.

To be fair 2 first rounders for Treloar at the point at which he came to us was completely reasonable, not overpaying.

Possibly. I’m just trying to think of another player who cost pick 7 and pick 8.

Carlton will secure pick 11 this season after its elimination finals loss and is determined to take that selection to the national draft given the talent on offer in the teens.

But if Carlton could trade its future first-rounder into this year’s draft it might have trade collateral to attempt to get in front of Port Adelaide for Houston.

The Blues would love another quality rebounder and while Houston has stated he will be at the Power next year Port Adelaide is open to the right deal for its dual All Australian.

I loved Treloar at GWS. Reckon it was Dermie that said he would be a future Brownlow winner. I think the deal was fair.

 

[sr36]

Get Stringer and 4 draftees.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Didn't he watch the Blues/Lions match?

 

[stormskye]

Can we wait until the actual trade period before throwing tantrums about how we aren’t going to get anyone? Let’s let the trade period play out shall we..

There were actual reports of his poor training standards and the ectomorph theory is a myth. There’s actual scientific evidence proving that even those body types can have significant gains with the correct diet and training program.
Why would anyone have accused Tuck of poor training standards, just because he was skinny like Stephenson? Unless you’re trying to infer that the only reason I said Stephenson had poor standards was because he was skinny? If that’s the case then you’re completely wrong. Again.

Look up the effects of having a bad heart condition does to muscle growth and strengthening.
